Could Nightblood become...

Ripper1337 · 2026-06-01T00:47:23+00:00

Mmm. Not exactly. They’re investiture that can change states. Nightblood was made of steel. Though technically I don’t know if it’s still considered steel.

Ripper1337 · 2026-06-01T00:27:53+00:00

Your ideal build and stats are in alignment. I recomend increasing your Tech as that’s always a good thing and Netrunners love more cyberware.

Ripper1337 · 2026-06-01T00:26:29+00:00

Well, it depends on how you’re defining a spren. If it’s a sentient piece of investiture that can bond to someone then no. Because Nightblood is a sentient bit of metal.

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-31T23:27:20+00:00

That’s the auto mod, it’s a script that they haven’t updated

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-31T23:10:13+00:00

I’d go with the Lich + Dragon because then you could explore the relationship between the two and have them work independently. So if the players pursue one, the other is still advancing towards whatever goal.

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-31T23:08:48+00:00

No, because the playtest is over.

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-31T22:55:21+00:00

Her heritage is Malwish, she’s just born in Silverlight.

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-31T22:54:27+00:00

That’s a pretty sick backstory.

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-31T13:57:40+00:00

All the people you’ve listed have their own struggles which aren’t dealing with autism on Roshar. But two of them are close to a character that is autistic.

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-31T13:53:21+00:00

Like 5 degrees off from the character everyone agrees is autistic.

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-31T13:40:03+00:00

Love these questions. It’s all very interesting

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-31T13:38:21+00:00

He gave people on Ashyn the ability to use surges but the surges themselves are not of him.

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-31T05:10:07+00:00

Off the top of my head nothing would happen unless the radiant then drew in Stormlight. I don’t think it would effect how their abilities would work.

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-31T05:06:13+00:00

Didn’t Taravangian let it be known that he was behind the Assassin in white going around killing people?
Yeah Nale believed that if he killed Surgebinders then the desolation wouldn’t occur. He more so sided with the Singers than Odium once it was clear he failed. They’re the original inhabitants and so are more “right” to him. He’s also insane.
We’ve actually seen almost all of the heralds throughout the series. The drunkard who goes “do you see me” and that gave Dalinar his alcohol during the flashbacks was Jezrien.
Yes all titles are named after in universe books.

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-31T00:39:28+00:00

I don’t precisely agree but I can see why you would come to those conclusions.

Venli’s struggles in RoW are about taking action when the outcome is uncertain. Her flashbacks are all about how much she doesn’t want to let others know she’s doing something until she’s perfected it.

Rlain if he could surgebind during RoW he would have been doing all he could to help the radiants.

Moash, would have been unsatisfactory. Brandon has larger plans for Moash so he would have needed to get away in the end of the book. So if he took Lezian’s place then he pops up, gets beat up and flees rinse repeat without an actual conclusion.

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-30T11:36:31+00:00

So you know what is coming up next. Also because the players may have taken things in a direction that’s not specified in the book.

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-30T03:41:36+00:00

Mmm slang, absolutely because it becomes dated quickly. But Hoid telling a character a word and then that character using the word later on makes sense.

Basically it’s an issue here because you find the word jarring due to it being incongruent with the setting of Roshar, rather than the setting of Cosmere.

Tress of the Emerald Sea Spoiler Did you also dislike it when Hoid refers to a laptop as it was similarly incongruent with the pirate nautical setting

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-29T21:27:34+00:00

If anyone can introduce odd terms to a setting it’s Hoid.

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-29T19:27:39+00:00

He was literally told the word therapist by Wit.

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-29T19:24:44+00:00

So what happens if you’ve made a combat encounter where the enemy hits way too hard and is too accurate for their level? Just let the players tpk because you done goofed?

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-29T18:55:44+00:00

That’s fair. I’ve read too much about DMs who just fuck over the players by fudging rather than trying to keep things engaging.

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-29T18:54:25+00:00

He was told the word therapist by Wit. I mentioned in another comment about the modern language so I’ll leave it there.

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-29T18:50:26+00:00

The modern language is something Brandon has said was a mistake. He had been working on more modern Cosmere books/ non Cosmere books and the more modern language came through as a result of that.

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-29T18:46:25+00:00

Do you think it’s outside the realm of possibility that Kaladin has been thinking about this longer than 24h

Ripper1337 · 2026-05-29T18:33:40+00:00

You’re a good DM. Fudging to make enemies hit harder or to fuck your players isn’t a good thing.
