Good point. The follow up would be, if you can only spike from one person, so one soul per spike, if you spiked anything other than gold out of a Fullborn compounder in such a way that they survived and could heals themselves, including healing the spiritual damage, could you spike them again with the same spike repeatedly and stack their own ability within the spike?

I could see Hoid leaving Elantris and sticking around on Sel for another few years, then eventually stealing the moon scepter, try to use it, and only then leave Sel.

Well, he would have to be a feruchemist, not an allomancer. MBE2 Spoilers. Spoiler Or he could have unkeyed metalminds. But this is a hypothetical question.

Fezzik Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 @IndigoAjah, I have a theory that fortune, rather than having anything to do with luck, has to do with the ability to see possibilities of the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sariel he/him Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 I don't think so. In Secret History: Spoiler “You always jump at stories, Alonoe. Not every coincidence is a sign of someone drawing upon Fortune.” So I think it literally makes someone luckier. And your theory resembles Atium too much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stark he/him Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 Are there any spren on Roshar that did not originate from the big three (Honor, Cultivatio and Odium)? Like are there any Autonomy spren running around on Roshar, or spren from other shard? I would potentially rephrase the question to exclude Nightblood, who could be considered an artificial spren.

I would potentially rephrase the question to exclude Nightblood, who could be considered an artificial spren. don't want to look for the WoB right now, but we know there are spren that predate the shattering, so they would presumably be some sort of mix of up to all 16 shards.

Green Hoodie Mistborn he/him Posted November 17, 2017 Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 Question for someone getting to a signing: Do burning Allomantic metals pulse to what would be recognizable Listener Rhythms? I.e. does burning pewter pulse to the Rhythm of Resolve? Or Burning Atium to the Rhythm of Destruction? The converse has been answered, that a Bronze burner can hear Rhythms, but I haven't see this quesiton posited yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiamondMind he/him Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 (edited) Oathbringer spoiler: Spoiler My question would be is if each Unmade have a connection to a specific Knight Radiant order and their non-sapient/sapient spren. Re-shephir seems to be opposite the Lightweavers and is described by Shallan as a twisted creationspren, so I would like to know if this holds for the other orders as well.

Sariel he/him Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 There are only 9 Unmade, so not each order. But maybe the bondsmiths or another order are excluded. Also, it was an OB spoiler, please mark it as such Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan_sedai he/him Posted November 20, 2017 Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 1. what determines whether or not something could pick up a Shard? (or in other words, how come a rock could not pick up a shard, and if the rock were sentient, could it pick up a shard, and why?) 2. could a self-aware robot pick up a shard? Why? 3. could one of the Sleepless pick up a Shard? if so, would all of the little cremlings suddenly dissapear, or would something more complicated happen? if not, why not?

Sariel he/him Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 A Vessel to a Shard needs to have presence in all three realms (or at least the two higher realms, as we saw in SH). In addition, the said Vessel needs to have a strong Spiritual Connection to the Shard they pick, and it is impossible without a Spiritweb (the Spiritual DNA of a person, his presence in the Spiritual Realm). I believe I answers questions 1 and 2, but I don't know about the third. Is it something from OB? I didn't get my copy yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't get my copy yet As mentioned, we meet a Sleepless in Edgedancer. The Sleepless are Dysian Aimians, and they are a species of.. hive-mind(ish) individuals composed of Hordelings, (cremling is used on Roshar the way we use "insect" or "bug" on earth). As individuals composed of multiple parts that can be spread around Roshar, it's an interesting thought experiment on what would happen to those far-off parts when the "main body" ascended to Shardhood. I genuinely don't have an answer for you @ethan_sedai. I think they'd just disappear, but it might be that they would all have to be with the main body in order to ascend. (IE: the Sleepless would have to be "whole" in order to ascend.) On the subject of one of your answers Sariel, that makes we wonder.. Would a robot have a spiritweb?
