why Awakening might just be the most powerful combat magic system against the other Invested Arts.

Bold fucking claim for me to make given atium and the Surge of Division letting people SPLIT THE DAMN ATOM but hear me out.

At Second Heightening (200 Breaths) an Awakener gains perfect pitch. If an Awakener hummed an Anti-Tone (Anti-Stormlight/Anti-Voidlight), would they be able to just neuter a Radiant. And I wonder if an Anti-Tone could exist for other magic systems, given that Bronze lets someone burning it hear the Rhythms of other metals. Just need a scholar or something to figure out the Anti-Tone of Preservation and you can also completely fuck over a Mistborn/any Allomancer. Thank you for coming to this insane ramble because I enjoy far overthinking Brandon Sanderson's magic systems and mix matching different planets systems to create hypothetically the strongest possible mix.

I need to be allowed to pester Brandon with questions but I would get plenty RAFO cards.

Okay but, when Shallan hands Kaladin the shardblade in the chasms

(spoilers for Rhythm of War under the cut)

Which blade does she give him?

Its not screaming but that doesn't mean it's not Testament, because Syl was gone at that point so it would not have screamed for Kaladin.

Remember how we all thought getting a blade early was a Lightweaver thing? At what point did she get Pattern as a blade? Was it the end of Words of Radiance? She's the one to open the Oathgate, right? And a truth goes along with it?

So before that, she's not using Pattern as a blade. She's using Testament. And she can hear the screams every time she does.

(This post has not been fact checked. And it's been awhile since I read them all.)

Happy Neil Day to those who celebrate 🎹🐀

Here’s an idea for a lock in a modern-futuristic game.

A chemical lock: this lock requires you to put a specific chemical compound into. This chemical can be as simple as table salt (NaCl) or as volatile as azidoazide azide (C2N14) which explodes even when you do absolutely nothing to it.

This could lead to some funny moments where your party is completely stumped by a lock that wants “dihydrogen monoxide” but nobody realizes that the lock just wants water.

Out of all the scenes in rhythm of war this one lives in my head rent free because it scared me SO BAD

Anyway I’ll hopefully finish this someday but until then I need everyone to share in my fear at least a bit.

For anyone who wants a reference, this is where the anglerfish was down the old fishmarket close!
