CaptainRyan he/him Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 When you pretend the metal point on your EKG tag is a spike and you chuckle to yourself when they only put three (3) total "spikes" in you - now I am safe from Harmony's control! Side note: If you could only have three Hemalurgic spikes then what three would you choose? 1: Feruchemical gold 2: Allomantic steel 3: Allomantic gold Ugh, it is so hard to choose only three! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then, you plan on naming a black chicken "Vin" and a red chicken "Shallan" True story. Chickens are Cosmere. The 16th one must be Jeksonofnone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Physicist of the Cosmere she/her Posted July 16, 2016 Report Share Posted July 16, 2016 When you're watching Mysteries at the Museum, and they're showing exhibits pulled straight out of an episode of Supernatural, including, "A long metal spike used in Witches' sacrificial rituals". I freaked out, and then they showed the image of a straight up Iron Spike. I literally shouted out loud, "HEMALURGIC SPIKE!!!!!!!!!!! HEMALURGY IS REAL" So yeah, I'm melting down all of my earrings and throwing the slag into a river. In the meantime, I'll be joining that Other Guy who has to run from the mob of Sharders that wants me lynched for implying Earth is Cosmere. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dilemma of a rosharan cook: get something beautiful carved and soulcast it into food (wedding cake, themes cupcakes etc), or make it from scratch with extreme difficulty. Youd get cheap caterers that make amazing-looking food that tastes like sawdust because really they're soulcast.....they travel around a lot, book multiple functions for one night, rip off everyone and then flee the area before they're caught. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's actually a plot I'd like to read about. Might as well add a bit of the dramatic to it, like soulcasting the whole Aziran Archive into sugar and therefore starting the First Bureaucratic War. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would require a Soulcaster ardent in the conspiracy and they are well protected. Because from what I've read it seems that they Soulcast huge amounts of food which is then given to the cooks. But if we got Shallan to impersonate a cook and getting tangled up in events and actually being required to make a cake... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
