Mystfall

This is just a place for me to brag about getting certain items from SE Games So far: I Co-Own a Bar/Nightclub on Scadrial along with my fellow Elims from MR75 I have a Blast-Mask(it Kills both of us if you target me) from LG110 I have a Letter of Endorsement(From Archer, for my pranks) from MR77

Our Story begins in MR77. The context for this is Fickle was the Thief(a neutral role) and died C1. But Myst started trolling by impersonating a second Thief in the Thief doc. This was an attempt to explain that in-world. MR77:

This is here as the official story of Fickle and Jet(plus some other characters who will pop in occasionally). I would prefer if you kept your reactions and comments in the blog entry for that purpose, I will not be responding to them here. Each successive SE game I will post a comment to this with some context, and then all the roleplay from that SE game. If you have any questions please voice them in the commentary blog. I’ll be in with my first reply to this shortly(It’s rather short, they should lengthen as time goes on) I hope you enjoy

This is here because I have another blog entry dedicated to Fickle’s adventures through the realm of SE roleplay. I stole the idea from someone else, but they probably also stole it from another someone. Anyways, this is here because I want to save the comments of the other Blog entry for updates, so any commentary/suggestions/anything else is preferred here(wow Myst, you’re making your audience to look at this blog before going to the actual story? Sounds like a hassle. — Yes, I am, voice in my head) I’ll edit in a link to the other blog once I make it. Questions? Edits: For some reason it won’t let me get a link to blogs like I’d do for threads. Sorry

Mwa ha ha *insert evil laugh* My plan is succeeding. Demoralizing anyone who dares go against me for the boon. Except for Twin because wow that rp is good. In other news I need to steal an idea from Hoid. And I almost forgot my name change, so I’ll have to go update my AMA, and of course ping @Jo and the Bush, I’m Mystfall now.

Exactly. Don’t leave them up to a vote or something, this is way more fun. Ayyyy. I won’t steal that, promise. I’ll find something else to do edit: done. And I was more polite

Fun. That’s gonna be… interesting. Comparatively I’m like free then. Just work with a friends birthday and then driving out an hour or two to a lake to do stuff there

Fair, but I actually like the backstory I get to add though. You’ll see. lol I’m gonna be busy the 24th/25th so that’s gonna be rough for me I’m thinking of hacking that by trying to hint(really obviously on which one I want) but I haven’t gotten around to that yet. I’d need to stage an interaction with the Queen

I think I know what my first vote is gonna be….

Twin’s doing it too! And you edited yours as well!

I bolded it so it was different from my writing. Besides, it was that or just rewrite it myself I feel like you’re putting way too much effort into this That said, so am I Ayy, Hopper’s slot 9, Mat’s 10 edit nvm

He can’t win both remember We’ve got a chance

Incriminating evidence right here Also, no one beats the Slayerman He knows. See? Very true

It’s also addicting to read, I think I have a chance for the intro post boon, especially if I keep going back to edit in more backstory, but you’re probably gonna win the engaging pre-game posts

Alright ———————- Fickle was staring out at the sea, watching the waves crash against the harbor. He’d tried swimming earlier and it was nothing like the Reshi isles. Cold enough that he’d been scrambling out of there as soon as he touched it. It surprised him, Fickle wouldn’t have thought he could still feel cold. But he also seemed to breathe, so maybe it wasn’t so odd. Someone familiar flickered at the edge of his vision, and Fickle turned and opened his mouth to greet Jet before snapping it closed. It wasn’t Jet.

I’d love to, sorry about forcing you to pretend to be a thief btw, only Mint died so I couldn’t frame her instead

Not a sign-up post…. interesting…

It’s a boon, that I want. And one that Hoid isn’t gonna take from me

I’m trying, have you not seen my successive edits to my sign up post?

Just read through the rules and wow I know exactly which roles I want. Am I gonna get it? Probably not. But you never know. It’ll be fun either way. I’ll find a way to cause shenanigans no matter what.

I’m joining and I’m here to cause chaos(I have a letter of endorsement from Archer). Unfortunately I won’t be able to gaslight people like I did last time but I’m confident I’ll find something. And if anything goes wrong… idk, blame Archer. Or Cuendillar, he watched me do it last time Anyways, I’m joining up as Fickle, a cognitive shadow somehow in the physical realm through yet to be disclosed means Fickle is an Elsecaller bonded to Jet, he used to be Alethi, and still has the appearance of one. Through yet to be disclosed means(meaning I haven thought of how yet) he is in the physical realm, despite not being able to use the surge of illumination or having any knowledge of Hemalurgy. He’s turned away from his attempts at crime after it almost got him killed. Instead he’s trying to figure out how to best fulfill his Elsecaller ideals. He’s here because he used shenanigans with the Oathgates and he’s now trying to catch up on the time he spent trapped in the shadesmar. —————— Fickle stared at the ocean, awestruck. He’d gotten used to the endless sphere seas of shadesmar, eternally glowing with their strange light. Jet had somehow been able to cross that sea. He still wasn’t sure how. She’d tried to show him, but it still remained confusing. Jet would take a sphere and do… something. And at the end there’d be this platform for them to stand on. They’d made their way to Thaylenah, walking across the black stone ground that represented the oceans on Roshar. Weirdly enough, the Tai-na were considered land there, their presence indicated by small moving pools of spheres, like the one he’d first woken up in. The Oathgate was the reason they went to Thaylenah in the first place. By timing it with when someone else was using the oathgate to come from Urithiru he’d managed to slip back into the physical realm. Unfortunately he’d timed it with the Thaylen Queen was coming through, which earned him a sword at his throat. But having a body that struggled with being tangible helped. It was also because of that he’d managed to get on the Council. It wasn’t everyday people appeared randomly in oathgates-well, maybe it was, but those people were expected to be appearing, Fickle wasn’t-and it certainly bought him a reputation. That, plus a letter he’d gotten during his travels to vouch for him had been enough. Now they definitely did question him occasionally, most everything about him seemed strange to their eyes. But he looked like a light eyed Alethi and they were too used to strangeness from them. There were bigger problems anyways. Jet had stayed behind. They weren’t sure what would happen if she tried to go though like Fickle had. They weren’t even sure it’d work for Fickle. But she could manifest in the physical realm anyways, so she was still here with him. That said, he didn’t know where she’d gotten off to, something about checking the next schedule or something, but he wasn’t sure. He’d never told anyone he was radiant, but most just assumed. Luckily he didn’t get think anyone had seen Jet, she usually kept herself pretty small. He’d never met Alethkar’s Queen, but Jasnah did not sound like someone he wanted dragging him off to Urithiru and being his radiant superior. Unfortunately some of his fellow councilmen had been talking about the Alethi monarch seeing to the defense of Thaylenah over the ten days. Fickle thought it was best if he spent as much time as he could out of the palace during the next week and a half. Even that might not be far enough. If Jasnah’s Spren was anything like Jet, though he doubted that any Spren was like her, he’d be better off braving a highstorm in a rowboat. So here he was, leaning against a guardrail overlooking the harbor. Watching waves crash and ships lean and people scurrying back and forth. Not really paying attention… just… seeing. He’d sworn oaths, ideals. Words he couldn’t take back, ones he didn’t want to. He’d seems Radiants of the second and third ideal around, most on some important business or another. And each one seemed to be confident in their ideals. But you only got five. Five chances. At best. Four really after the first. Fickle didn’t want to waste them. Could you waste them? He wasn’t sure, but he also didn’t want to find out. They only had three fourth ideal radiants. Each one was relatively young, expected to live far longer than they were currently at. Jasnah Kholin. Kaladin Stormblessed.The Stormwall, Dami. One ideal left for them. And then what? What then? Were you just stuck? Fickle didn’t want that. He thought he knew the words, but he didn’t want to say them just yet. It was safer for Jet anyways. The Bond wasn’t permanent till the third ideal. Until then there was hope for her if Odium did win the final contest. She could still make it out unharmed. Fickle still wasn’t sure why she’d chosen him, he’d just been a thief—a thief with dreams, yes—but still a thief. Maybe it’d been Axies doing. But why? Their contract had concerned the Nightwatcher, not Radiant Spren. And why would Jet agree to it? She hasn’t been thrilled the few times he brought up Axies. Either way he wasn’t going to guess it. Axies’ motives were strange, not to mention Jet’s. Fickle began to descend towards the shipyards. Standing around probably wasn’t doing him any favors. And he’d learned from Shadesmar how valuable ships were. Later Posts’ Lore Elim Queen’s Consort pretty please.

That source is from Sunlit Man. I remember Nomad talking about it and using Aux to make clocks(something about how it only worked once Nomad himself understood how clocks worked). Which does bring up something interesting in that clocks are not one individual piece. So I think yes, you could, but it would cost you stormlight, I think. There’s another part in the Sunlit Man where Aux consumes investiture to become larger, so I assume making Shardplate would be big enough for that. This does bring up an interesting point of how a sufficiently skilled 3rd ideal radiant could be equal to a 4th ideal radiant.(except for that a 4th ideal radiant could have both plate and blade)

Don’t have time right now but I will get to reading this in the morning. I actually really like this. I’ve always found view-point swapping during a scene to be really fascinating. So I’ll be back later with more detailed thoughts(after I read it) So thank you
