Mystic

Real, I’m totally not procrastinating my finals essays right now

It’s like 10:30, I’m fine, Alaska is a few hours behind the rest of the US.

*gasp* Time traveler! it’s still November here, you must be from the future… have we solved any world problems yet? Nice topic name though.

Oh, you’re not the first to realize…. : )

I feel like this has just become @Ookla the Dokja getting you to change all his favorite dokja fanarts. It’s basically free labor at this point. : )

It might be that, I’d check though. If you go to “account” then “attachments” it should tell you how much you’ve uploaded. If it’s full that would explain it, but idk how you’d get more space

Okay, yeah that would check out. Saitaku wouldn’t expect him to react that fast, so he’d be shocked enough for that to happen I’ll go add that to my character, unlesss you have anything else you’d want to add/change?

Okay, so what would probably happen is Saitaku would be wandering, trying to get out of the Alleyways, then he runs into Lux. Saitaku pretends to be nice, and asks for directions. Lux helps him out, and after they get out, Saitaku would turn to thanks him and then try to stab him with a spike. Based on what you’ve said, Lux would stab him back, and then maybe run, idk. would he continue to fight or run? Does that fit with your character?

Okay, how threatening does Lux look/how would he react to an out of breath JinDo asking him for a way out(and then potentially trying to stab him if he looked easy enough to stab once he’s out)

The only time he would’ve been there is right before era 9 starts, so perhaps, it depends on where you character was at that time

Hello, I kinda just need people in my backstory, and I would like to know if there were other characters I might’ve come into contact with. So my character is in the era 9 sign-up if you want to look at that, but here’s a short summary. He’s a JinDo who didn’t want to go peacefully under the Fjordell occupation of his country, they ended up capturing him and throwing him into Dominions perpendicularity where he then made his way to Scadrial, and he got involved in the Set, got an Iron Spike, learned a bit about hemalurgy, and killed a Kandra(which got the Ghostbloods and Harmony mad at him) before accidentally fleeing into the Alleyverse. I’m wondering if anyone else’s story intersects with mine. Maybe they were. Fjordell soldier, or another JinDo, maybe they were a Gyorn who through him into the perpendicularity, maybe you’re a member of the Set he used to be with, or maybe your mad at him as your part of the Ghostbloods, but yeah, I was just wondering if yall could help. thanks

Okay, so if not ChayShan, then I’ll just take that out, I’m not sure what else I’d replace it with anyways, so yeah. I’ll go edit my character sheet Edit: if I can somehow rp this(and it makes sense in the story line) I am so going to try and make him have connection to Canticle, like Nomad.

Ahh, okay, thanks

Do you mean as if I make a place that looks like JinDo? I’m confused

All the spikes are iron, yes. As for the 4 spikes, yes, he does know that, but thinks he can get around it with some clever placement (idk if he’ll be a koloss or not, I haven’t decided) he currently does not exhibit signs, though, he hasn’t had his 2nd and 3rd spikes for very long. My understanding of TLM was that Purified Dor was hard to come buy, which is what he’d need. Ordninary Dor is still location based, so since the Alleyverse is far away from JinDo, ordinary Dor wouldn’t help him much. Am I wrong about how that works?

Aren’t you already two characters? Lux and Fractal. Edit: I found this, idk if it’s still accurate, but idk

I didn’t even think of Nightblood. Nightblood could probably straight up destroy the portal.

Ok I don’t have names for things yet, but I’m planning on going through everyone else’s characters and finding who could potentially interact with my character, so once I talk to people about that I can add that. Edit: after looking through all the others characters, most of them seem to be from Roshar, which means my character wouldn’t have any contact with them, so if any new people want to be a part of my backstory, just pm me to let me know, otherwise, it seems all the people are NPCs, so… yeah.

You are right, but I feel like that an invasion by the USA would make them unite. They wouldn’t like each other, and it’d be hard to get along, but both sides want to rule Roshar, and that can’t happen if the USA takes it over. So yeah, they might be able to do some significant damage before they realize the threat and unite, but after that, I feel like Roshar would win. Aluminum would be weird, because yes, it stops shard blades, but it’s a fairly weak metal, and the USA doesn’t have Scadrial’s expertise on the different alloys that do and don’t block it, so they’d have to choose between having a sheet that breaks by getting bunched and a sheet that breaks by a shard blade. They could get around that by plating normal tanks in aluminum, but it would be relatively easy to scrape through it, or simply to attack through the bullet proof glass, or the cameras. They need one of those two see, and that can’t be aluminum, so they’d can just stab that.

If the USA could ever take it over, it’d be extremely resources intensive, and the loss of life would be extreme. They’d can’t disrupt supply chains due to soulcasting, so they have to target the radiants and fused. In order to kill one they’d have to first, separate it from other radiants/fused, and then focus it till its stormlight runs out. The first would be hard, with Edgedancers, windrunners, Skybreakers and Dustbringers having unpredictable movements, but they could focus other orders. The main goal would be to focus soulcasters, and then civilians, as then they can fight a battle of attrition. Each radiant having to farm is one less radiant fighting them. this would be extremely risky, and the USA probably couldn’t do it, but this is probably their best bet to take over Roshar they’d have to ignore the Geneva convention though. Gas wouldn’t be a good weapon, as radiants don’t need to breath. This just isn’t a good situation, everything would be very risky and costly in lives and resources

Nope, it’s why I either don’t eat or bring my own

A sedative to put you to sleep (a whole lot of melatonin)

My main reason for liking Hrathen is at the end of the book, where he says his problem isn’t with Sho-Dereth, but with Wyrn. And I think that’s admirable, to know that the thing you love isn’t perfect, and others use that same thing to do destroy, but to choose it anyway, because you believe it’s right, even if it has problems. The others never had to make that choice.
