soyperson Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Vorin ardentia. Less political strife (depending on where you are) and seemingly more fun. Comparatively. Would you rather ride a chull bareback from Kholinar to the warcamps, or attempt to put a sweater on a mistwraith? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemalurgic Headshot he/him Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Definitely the chull. Come on, let's get some sick air! Would you rather get withered or Deathtouched? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weltall Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Withering, it's got a small window of survival and if I don't make it, at least I can go 'boo!' and scare the pants off people for a few years as a Shade. Or possibly get shot out of a gun by Nazh, however that works. Would you rather be locked in a room with a bored Ham for an hour or a monologuing Sadeas for ten minutes? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's one of my favorites. Would you rather be an aluminum gnat or a duralumim gnat 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemalurgic Headshot he/him Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Aluminum, actually. Something about aluminum savants being able to cleanse more than just metals from their bodies, but who knows? Would you rather be a chasmfiend Mistborn or an army of shades with lightsabers? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude, chasmfiend Mistborn. For reasons obvious. Would you rather be on the run having stolen from the Lord Ruler or Nale?

Elenion he/him Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Nale, because he doesn't have an army of ruthless Inquisitors backing him up. He would just kill me outright, efficiently, no torture involved. Would you rather be married to Sadeas or put on the bridge crews? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less torture involved, more outright death. Far more desirable. Would you rather have the Lord Ruler's knowledge, or his powers? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weltall Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 His powers, especially now that we know what they can do when one is actually trying. But on the subject of knowledge... Would you rather have every essay Khriss has written up to the point of the Arcanum Unbounded texts or a chance to ask Brandon one question, anything you like, and he would have to answer it completely honestly? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightRadiant she/her Posted February 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Khriss's essays. More knowledge that way. Would you rather Shallan ends up with Adolin or Kaladin? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elenion he/him Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 I ship Shadolin because Shalladin is so... stereotypical. Main girl ends up with main guy? I expect Brandon to do better. Besides, with their personalities, a Shalladin divorce would always be close. Would you rather eat Rock's stew with Bridge 4 or go thieving with Kelsier (no allomancy included)? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormyQueen she/her Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Thieving with Kelsier, he's my one of favourite characters from the Cosmere. Have a pet mistwraith (it will never become a kandra), or a pet lifeless cat? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weltall Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Lifeless cat. If Lightsong can give ridiculously complicated Commands to a squirrel, imagine how much fun you can have with a cat that will actually do what you tell it to. Where would you rather go on your Cosmere summer vacation, T'Telir or the Reshi Isles? And you don't get to pick up any Investiture as a souvenier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you rather be a Listener Surgebinder stuck in Kholinar, or a high-profile runaway plantation skaa from a famous master stuck in Luthadel?

The Technovore he/him Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Kholinar, have you seen what happened to Luthadel? Plus I get to be a Surgebinder, so yea. Would rather Be a full Feruchemist, or a full mistborn with one feruchemical power?

Mistborn would be more fun, but full feruchemist would be much more useful. Besides, if you store enough pewter and steel use become the Flash-Hulk Would you rather have the Shard of Honor, or the Shard of Autonomy? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasarr she/her Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Shard of Autonomy. Seems like this is the Shard to have if you want to have fun with your powers. Would you rather have all the powers of Hoid or all the powers of the Lord Ruler? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weltall Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Hoid. The man is effectively unkillable and he's already got (or is strongly implied to have) half the Lord Ruler's powerset via the lerasium bead, plus lots of other stuff. I'll gladly take all that in return for the 'no harming people' restriction that Hoid has. Might be a good thing actually, less temptation to go mad with power that way. Your life depends on winning a game. Would you rather have to play Tarachin against Lightsong or a hand of Kabers against Yalb? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shqueeves he/him Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Tarachin against Lightsong. Neither of us know how to play, so I might win. Would you rather be Gibbletish or Aldonalsium 4 seconds pre shattering 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemalurgic Headshot he/him Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Gibbletish. Adonalasium has its history written. Gibbletish could be an epic spacefaring stick god thing. I don't know. Would you rather find yourself between Rock and a hard place or be stuck on a Stick? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soyperson Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 (edited) Rock and a hard place. He seems like a fun guy. Would you rather be slowly digested by a Marabethian greatshell or marooned on Patji with a pack of hungry nightmaws for, say, 6 hours? Edited February 16, 2017 by bleeder 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sketchyfish Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 I'd go for the nightmaws. At worst it'd probably be a quick, if painful, death. I wouldn't be so arrogant as to pretend I'd survive 6 hours on Patji, that'd be ridiculous. Would you rather accept a "monkey paw" style deal from the Nightwatcher or from Kelsier? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Technovore he/him Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 *googles monkey paw* Nightwatcher, with her you're more likely to actually be able to live with your curse, with Kelsier you might just end up destroying a planet and dying in the process. Would you Rather be a disillusioned Returned and hate your own existence, or a Knight Radiant and want out of the oaths you made? (<- such a happy question right there ) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasarr she/her Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 I think I'd pick being the Returned. I'm still worshipped and have everything provided for me, after all, and I don't have to kill any friends to get what I want. Would you rather be dropped on Scadrial with a bag of spheres, but no coins, or dropped on Roshar with a bag of coins, but no spheres? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Okdes he/him Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Scadrial with spheres. The world is less likely to end in fire and death, and I'm sure you could find someone to sell a bunch of glowing gemstones to. Would you rather fight a very pissed off Kaladin (Words of Radiance) or a very pissed off Vin (Well of Ascension)? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
