Absolutely love Oathbringer could possibly be my favorite book of all time haha.  but was really really really looking forward to seeing Shallan and Adolins wedding hahahahah never wanted her to end up with Kaladin so this was extremely happy moment for me. Maybe we can get a short story of their wedding hahaha

But the Alethe are supposed to be slightly Asian looking and the Shin have the round eyes. I thought that was pretty much Brandon playing with tropes. The Oriental like culture has the round eyes while the European medieval type culture has the epicanthic fold and darker tan skin.

I like the Korean actors listed on the TOR site when they had this discussion.

Yes you are right that Brandon Sanderson said that.  I remember seeing the actors tor website picked.  I didn't like any of them except for they're picked  for Shallan. I remember recently watching a Brandon Sanderson interview or lecture on YouTube where  he said that however you pronounce the character's name is the correct way in your head and however you see the character in your head is the correct way for you so these are the characters as I see them when I read them. 

Tav/Vargo- (remember how spell his last name or his last name. Head of the diagram) the old guy from Game of Thrones in originally from Empire Strikes Back AT AT General guy

@SLNC okay now I'm annoyed because Brandon sound like he was annoyed to answer that question in my opinion but I guess there is  still a baby chance haha

The character (Oberlyn Martell) is not like Kaladin at all, but Pedro Pascal is an excellent actor so I'd guess he could pull off Kaladin. Pedro Pascal is just who I always pictured in my head when I thought of Kaladin. Ironically, I read WoK before he was introduced on GoT. This just reinforced it for me.

O thats great hahah

Kaladin is most certainly Pedro Pascal with long hair...

I Love A Song of Ice and Fire but I've only seen season 1 of Game of Thrones so I can't really give an opinion on this actor is it just because he looks like him or his characteristics are very much like Kaladin. This picture is excellent though

I think Anthony Hopkins works really well as a god character, and whether I made the connection through the names being similar or just how Odium carries himself, it's the strongest imagery I have when reading the book. I can literally hear his voice and picture his mannerisms, as Hopkins can pull off benign wizened old man or menacing terrifying old villain very well, and has combined them in the past. Odium's seductive and corrupting nature, complete with dominating intelligence really fits Hopkins' style.

I can't agree with you anymore I thought of him as Odium just the way Anthony Hopkins talks is perfect always like he knows more than you he's more intelligent than you perfect

I see it as Kal and Syl  evolving and becoming something othere than just a Knight Radiant and then taking the next level of the evolution of KR if that makes sense. What would a Speb human hybrid Offspring even be the next evolution of roshar. I honestly don't understand how people think it's similar to the Lannisters that's brother and sister Kaladin and Syl are two separate individuals bonded together connecting Souls I really like this idea

I would like to add some more maybe somebody will agree with me I don't know. Qeen Fen- Charlize Theron specifically from Snow White looks like she doesn't take any BS from people just like the queen

Rock- that artwork and Triple H for some reason plus he's got a really thick Russian accent

Lopen- Azar Med

Lyn- instantly thought of Debra Morgan from Dexter I'm being lazy I don't know the actresses name right when she said storm it to Kaladin when he said she could be a scribe made me think of Deborah

Teft- old guy from The Blade trilogy from the very beginning a way of Kings I thought of this guy as Teft being lazy again should look up that actors name but I'm at work and should be working instead of doing this

Syl is like a cross between his imaginary best friend, therapist and guardian angel.

While I don't think they'll ever get involved in a physical way, I did think it was weird that Kaladin wasn't more excited that he could give Syl a hug in Shadesmar.

Also I'd be kind of amazed if some Radiant in the past hadn't fallen in love with their spren (in an asexual romantic way).  I think Mercedes Lackey already did that plotline though with her Heralds of Valdemar series.

Yea good points. Mercedes Lackey I tryed to read her book few years back but could not get threw them

Slightly lighter weight paper. I just gave them both a feel, and Oathbringer is definitely made from lighter weight paper (though still high quality, not like the couple microns thick paper they sometimes print the bible on).

The Grapevine is correct. Brandon has mentioned that they were nearing the limits of what their system could bind, so the options were either get a new book binding system, use smaller margins, use smaller text, or use thinner paper. Given that the book is thinner, I think it's pretty clear which option won out in the end.

Thank you

Man I was hoping to get some comments on this ome haha. I guess everyone realise my choicesare are perfection and do not need to even comment. Hahaha

With the pag count of Oathbring at 1233 and Words of Radiance being 1080 why is Word thicker

I don't think Brandon will go for this, I'm 90% sure we've had several descriptions of Syl with her safehand uncovered but I can't remember a single time Kal has noted that in a sexual or even romantic way, so I think he only sees her as just another asexual spren.

Good point about the uncovered safe hand I never thought of it as a sexual all romantic thing. Just a extremely strong bond that manifests into love if that makes sense.

Seems like Peter Pan and Tinkerbell hooking up to me. 

Hahaha I can definitely agree with your opinion but I still would love it to happen

I don't know whether to support this or shun it... 

Lol why

I definitely thought back after reading  Words of Radiance Adolin was going to awaken his shardblade and was thinking it was going to be some old ancient dude spren who was going to teach him things about Warfare. I guess I was wrong on that one. I loved the description of the Dead spren it was pretty creepy in my opinion so what do people think is going to happen book for with Adolin and Maya. For some reason  I Rose  instantly thought of  Rose Bryne when Maya attacked the fused

Kaladin and Syl are going to end up together. I don't know how but some way they are going to surpass the 5th ideal and Syl will gain physical form on Roshar. I've said it before I'm a sucker for a good love story and never never never never wanted Kal and Shallan to end up together. 

Dalinar-William Hurt specifically from Ridley Scott's Robin Hood I know I know he doesn't have a beard but this is how I picture him. 

Kaldin-that art work haha. I also kind of pitch johnny boycheck a defenseman who plays for New York Islanders

Adolin-youg Chris Hemsworth

Shallan-Rose Leslie still not 100% sure on that one. 

Jasanh- Olivia Wilde 200% sure on that one.

Renarin- Ezra Miller

Navni- Eva Green

Azura-"V" Keira Knightley

Wit- Tom Hiddleston pretty sure I'm not the only one that thinks this one

Moash- Jared Leto

Evi- Michelle Pfeiffer been in love with her ever since Batman

Szeth- kind of look like the ancient one from Doctor Strange hahaha

Syl- a mix between Amanda Seyfried Kristen Bell

Gavilar-Ray Fiennes

@stonedshaman I know this post from a while ago what do you think of this for War forum. It's my own drawing and I can't really do parties that well whenever I upload them they always on the side I try to rotate it so it looks correct but I can't do it for some reason. I picture this as Rlain I just don't know how to put the uncut gems into a longer beard only been drawing for about 7-8 months

That's really impressive if you've only been drawing for a year. I've got several good anatomy book titles and online tutorial suggestions if you are interested. The Stormlight Chronicles are a really good source of inspiration, you'll have fun practicing  

Thank you again Would love them.
