  1. Ah, so THAT'S how Kobold King was created.
  2. The Shard of Snark. The more sarcastic you are the stronger your magic is. It's Holder is Chandler Bing the only man capable of beating Wit in a Snark off.
  3. Where's the voting option for Lightsongs gin monkey? I feel like the running team of Hoid for President, Lightsong for Vice President, and the small monkey being fed large amounts of Gin Lightsong talks about in Warbreaker for World Dictator, is one I can really get behind and would take my issues to heart. If a drunk monkey cant run a good government then who can?
  4. Zane played by Justin Beiber. "shudders" It's like "How can we possibly make people hate this character even more then they already do? Oh, oh god what have we done!?"
  5. Yes actually she does. The interlude with the Mistress in WoK spells it out plain, she will give you exactly what you asked for the way you meant it. No loophole with how you say it, she'll give you the boon you want. She just also gives you a curse she considers equal in value. That's all gleamed straight form the book.
  6. "Should have called you Wartlover the Ugly." What? You trying to tell me that wasn't Vivenna's way of trying to pick up Vasher after seeing how good of a person he really was AND his super smexy Returned form? Please.
  7. Dark One at least, will probably be getting (relatively) soon. After Calamity and SA 3 It's likely that Brandon is going to work on The Aztlanian next in late 2016 early 2017. Then probably the last Wax and Wayne and SA 4. After that, probably Dark One in the gap between SA 4 and 5. Still a long way off, but likely before Nightblood and the Elantris sequels. Which is both awesome, and sucks.
  8. Actually, something with say, Mistborn animation wise wouldn't be easy per say but actually quite doable eventually. Most of the Magic System is internalized so you wouldn't have to make any effects for it. Even from there perspective it would just be blue lines. Something with Surgebinding though? Holy hell hard. Kaladin and Szeth's battle in the highstorm would make animators weep. LOL, I know I was joking. Catching up to him is like a snail chasing the Flash while he points and laps you again shouting "On your left!"
  9. So, I'm a little late with this, like almost 11 months late. But sense I've have been way more active on here lately I figure it's okay to actually just say hi to everyone for the first real time. Hi, I'm Slater, I'm in college for animation and absolutely adore Brandon Sanderson. Just wanted to say that and also that this is one of the best online forums I have ever been apart of. Overall everyone is so respectful of each other and the intelligent discussion has been a joy to be apart of. Thanks for that. Also my goal in life is to get more Reputation Points then Kobold King. It's...it's not going great.
  10. I personally was deeply disappointed by the last Twilight book. After the literary mastery she showed in the original trilogy I will never understand how this fourth book failed so bad to live up to it's glorious predecessors. Maybe it was the pedophile Werewolves. Or the parents being okay with the pedophile werewolves. Alas,The story of Tyler's Van an assorted allies trying desperately to save the world by killing the sociopath Bella Swan and failing was a true tearjerking Greek tragedy that will be remembered through the annals of time even with the absolutely surprising drop in quality in the fourth book. Hope everyone gets the sarcasm. Except for Tyler's Van. Team Tyler's Van FOR LIFE.
  11. I kinda hope it just ends up being a small monkey fed extremely large amounts of Gin. Like Lightsong was actually right all along. 'He knew the truth about the universe the WHOLE TIME and tried to warn us! That;s why he really Returned, but we didn't listen. We didn't listen!!" I would laugh myself to death if that actually happened.
  12. Harmony DOES intervene in Alloy of Law, he talks to Wax through his earring several times and in the climax is the one who makes Wax's weapon chest appear out of nowhere so he can defeat Miles.
  13. So, I realize side series/story might not be the best name for this sense they all probably play an important part in some capacity overall even if it's just behind the scenes. But what I mean is that Brandon has never been shy in saying that the "Main Sequence" of the Cosmere constitutes Mistborn, The Stormlight Archive and Dragonsteel. There his Babies, the Big Three, the Headliners, the Golden Trio, the Three Amigos, the Breadwinners, the reason you probably bought the tickets. They alone will consist of up to AT LEAST 26 books between the three. (13 Mist, 10 SA and 3-5 DS) and make up the majority of the Cosmere's overall content. Sense there the most important also, they are the one's we can be most assured to get and the one's who will receive the most attention to overall. So what I'm asking is what are you most looking forward to among the rest, outside the Big Three and why? Who among there smaller cousins are you most excited for? Me personally? Elantris Sequels: I am mostly looking forward to learning more about Wyrn and maybe what happened to Dominion and Devotion. Nightblood: Might be what I'm most excited for overall. Can't wait to see more of Vasher, Vivi and Nightblood and also maybe what happened to separate them. White Sand: Probably what I'm most excited for right now, if only because we know it's coming out relatively soon in either this year or next and it'll be the first new major Shard world opened to us sense we came to Roshar in 2010. Dark One: The concept sounds super interesting as does the world and Brandon's YA so far has been just top notch. The Silence Divine: It's on the lower end of the list but that could easily change when I read it like it did with Emperor's Soul Skyward: I just don't know enough about it to really get excited yet. (Or if it even still exists) Also really curious about the two unnamed one's but that's a long way off. Anyway, What about you guys?
  14. When you try to avoid responsibility with the excuse, "I try to avoid having thoughts. They lead to other thoughts, and—if you're not careful—those lead to actions. Actions make you tired. I have this on rather good authority from someone who once read it in a book. "
  15. It was confirmed to be him at the DC Words of Radiance Signing "Q: In the middle of WoR, there's a scene where Kaladin's hanging out in the barracks, and Rock kicks out an ardent sketching them. Is that the guy drawing all the pictures?" "A: That is Nazh. You've found him. You have discovered Nazh!"
  16. The Shard of Passive Aggressiveness. You only get powers by being really catty about everything. It's like how everyone acted at the Purple Wedding in Game of Thrones ALL THE TIME.
  17. I'm just imaging having ShardCon across from from JordanCon and both sides getting into interpretative dance offs West-side Story style. It's Glorious.
  18. When your go to response when your girlfriend is mad at you is "um..you are intelligent and articulate?" and when SHE'S like "You forgot the compliment"
  19. "There's always another secret." It sums up everything about the Cosmere as a whole and individually so well. Other awesome and funny quotes I'll probably forget eventually until I one day reread them. But I'm never going to forget this one, and it's always going to be relevant to us here, because a decade from now there will still be more secrets we don't know the answer to yet. There be a lot of secrets from now that will probably have answers to by then but there will always be another.
  20. Pretty shocked we never got one of these up, but anyway, who is your personal favorite character in Warbreaker and why? Me personally? I deeply feel that Lightsong is one of the greatest characters Brandon has ever created and it will always hurt me a little that we only had him for one book and never got to see him interact with Nightblood. "I try to avoid having thoughts. They lead to other thoughts, and-if you're not careful-those lead to actions. Actions make you tired. I have this on rather good authority from someone who once read it in a book." Lightsong.
  21. I came up with it a month ago, (check the cosmere enquirer thread) so if you do I get royalties. I will except money, Hello Kitty Pictures, or nut's, any will do.
  22. Led by there glorious leader "Squirrelsong"!!
  23. "Local man proves existence of God using cleavage, scholars everywhere both stunned and aroused."
  24. Hey, quick questions, does anyone have the Q and A where Brandon confirms Hoid has seen worlds die? I know it was recent but I can't find it.
  25. When you see discarded change on the Empire State Building and immediately think/hope there was an Allomancer fight there. The you convulse thinking about how cool a Mistborn fight around the Empire State Building would be.
