  1. Sell. Nalthis is a prequel series to SA in some respects, but I think we're going to focus on the Greater Roshar System in the SA.
  2. House rules, I think. I'd suggest limiting their kandra stunts or making it clear that they're focused on one art or the other, with drawbacks for the neglected on.
  3. I think part of the reason they're more developed is that they piggyback off of their Surgebinders consciousness and gain that element of complexity only humans have.
  4. Buy Ivory is going to be a foil for Hoid, and will occasionally side with him against Jasnah.
  5. I'm Canadian. Half Taiwanese back two generations, half British back two generations, with American citizenship. There don't seem to be many of my countrymen on here, eh?
  6. Buy The Cosmere novels are actually his memoirs.
  7. My impression is that Intent replaces a conscious mind - unless the amount of Investiture is as huge as a Shard, in which case the Intent overrides the mind. So any character with an Intent instead of consciousness is going to have limited character development, because their mind's core principles are hard-coded so to speak
  8. Could you commit suicide by storing too much luck? "Goodbye cruel world!" *touches piece of Chromium* *Anvil lands on head*
  9. Destroy Evil + Odium Destroy evil with extreme prejudice?
  10. Ooh, can we hear the pitch?
  11. Sell, Brandon's not a crossover kind of guy ( in canon) Jasnah will end up being a bit more perceptive than Good anticipated, and infer a few of the secrets he didn't mean to share.
  12. Buy. The whitespines and other dangerous wildlife will be co-opted by Odium during the SA
  13. Buy. But when she's alone, she'll toss her her feet up, grab some chips, and start the banter with Wyndle.
  14. *burns duralumin* YOU WILL HUSH. YOU HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO HUSH. BE SILENT. GOOD.
  15. Possibly. Has it occurred to you that your ice powers combined with your penchant for transforming vast swathes of terrain into steel creates tons and tons of high-conductivity surfaces that soak up all heat to the touch when brought to low temperatures? Under your reign, people are freezing in the cold metal urban maze, their body heat being leached off and sunk into the practically limitless reservoir of steel you've built.
  16. Nothing is purely good or bad, I think. The coldness of clarity is a state in which she can get things done, but it puts her at an emotional distance from the things she's doing - she might do something logically that she regrets emotionally. It's a coping mechanism that puts off confrontation with internal problems in favour of externalization. This is all well and good, but you need a spren to force you to reflect upon yourself every once in a while, and let yourself feel the full impact of your circumstance.
  17. Because I don't like taping pieces of paper to my face
  18. Indentured servants of exactly this type were how a lot of European settlers came to Canada when it was founded, in case anyone cares.
  19. We should have a 17th Shard meet up sometime, with our profile pics pinned to our shirts.
  20. You know who else gets a red mark? RASHEK! Sliver of infinity my fin, he just implied that he's a real fraction of a mathematical concept!
