NameIess Posted April 20, 2022 Report Share Posted April 20, 2022 "Possibly. Elayne failing to unweave that gateway messed up the one power in the area around it. Either way, the DO's power doesn't 'corrupt' things in the Cosmere way, which is to say changed from its original intent, it corrupts it in the evil sense. So investiture would probably have a corrupting effect on the users, and Adonalsium would probably go insane." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frustration he/him Posted April 20, 2022 Report Share Posted April 20, 2022 "I would argue that Evil can be an intent, and if we go with the taint merely covering investiture rather than changing it Adonalsium would be fine." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NameIess Posted April 20, 2022 Report Share Posted April 20, 2022 “Perhaps. If Adonalsium is the power, then that’s possible. If he’s an actual host, he’d go insane just like anyone else who used investiture. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quivil she/her Posted April 20, 2022 Report Share Posted April 20, 2022 "I know.

NameIess Posted April 20, 2022 Report Share Posted April 20, 2022 “You mean the double who currently can’t directly interfere with the planet destroying terrorists? He’d never be able to do anything.

NameIess Posted April 20, 2022 Report Share Posted April 20, 2022 Nameless picked up the metaphorical ping pong ball and metaphorically served it to Frustration. "I find it likely that the one power could be used to shield Mistborn and mistings, as they get their powers from an external source similar to channelers and the One Power. It's possible that Radiants, feruchemists, and other similar magic users could be shielded as well, prevented from drawing in power." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the very least it could be used to cut Connections, like Rand did to Asmodean." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the Connection severing will be enough, given that Mistings, Elantrians, and Radiants all rely on it for their powers." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
