I think readers do tend to notice when an author writes about similar ideas.
I don’t think it’s necessarily bad for so many characters to have that motivation, but I would try to avoid having too many of them have it as their main motivation, especially main characters.
I know that all of these characters are from the same universe, but…[Read more]

If anyone’s wondering where we’ve been, @highscribe and I have been nastily sick all week. I’ll have to catch up on a lot of things, so I probably won’t be on much for a few days. (Not that I really have anyway.)

They do not. Same universe, different planets.

I think it’s because you tried to post two images at once, and that’s a no no.

Yeah, Warbreaker works fine without a sequel, but we need some answers about how/why Vasher and Nightblood came to Roshar.

Cloaked Mystery replied to the topic Stormlight Archive in the forum Book Discussions 8 months, 4 weeks ago
Ah. Okay. So you caught that Zahel is Vasher and Azure is Vivenna?
How despairingly unfortunate 😔. Though I am relieved to hear that there will be a sequel at all.
Technically, it might not happen, but it is planned.

Cool! (I think we do have a Warbreaker thread, but whatever.)
Yeah, I really like Warbreaker. Unfortunately it seems like its sequel, Nightblood, isn’t coming any time soon.
(Wait have you finished RoW or are you in the middle of it?)
What references are you referring to specifically? From my memory, RoW doesn’t have par…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom @princesachronicle22 @highscribeofaetherium
Do you want Ellis, Rina, Zahlin, and Szabrin to meet up with Synian and Umen?
@rae @princesachronicle22 @keilah-h @beth-torres
Do you want to have Nahim, Nazyra, Kate, Snake, and Carrie go ahead and enter the palace, even though the other characters are still on their way?

Well, Nahim isn’t in this. It’s Nahim Jr., although they would probably get along worse.

otherwise some characters would have no chance.
That doesn’t sound very nice. I’ll amend that to an “almost.” And no, I was not thinking on anyone in particular.

Wait, people are eliminated by random generation? XD That’s hilarious. I suppose that makes sense, otherwise some characters would have no chance. So, a generator will randomly select that somebody “killed” someone else, and then you’ll have to write it in a way that makes sense?

Here are some snippets of Zahlin I pulled from an RP:
1:
“SOMEONE HELP US THESE GUYS ARE QUITE POSSIBLY GOING TO MURDER EACH OTHER!” The Sword screamed.
Zahlin froze.
You’re welcome. Sword said proudly.
2:
Zahlin took advantage of Nahim’s distraction to crack him on the temple with the pommel of his Sword. He was genuinely conside…

Okay, yeah that makes sense. That’s basically what I was going for, but that seems like a more scientifically accurate way to put it.

I think it would be more helpful to think of this in terms of momentum than inertia. Momentum equates to the velocity of an object times it’s mass (which is equal to inertia). So the goal of the magic is to preserve momentum. When velocity increases/decreases, mass/inertia changes likewise to make sure momentum remains constant. Y…

I am planning to add a villain, but I’m not sure who. I would guess that we would start all the villains out with a scene of them being summoned by Koshtin, because otherwise they won’t know what to do.
I can’t remember who RPd last. Our group just met up with Snake and Carrie.

Wednesday: orange
Thursday: brown
Friday: also orange
Saturday: green
Sunday: white

I think any number of characters is welcome, but I believe we’ve reached what whalekeeper said was the minimum.
