Brandon Sanderson / anyone want to design a WoT tattoo for me?
« on: March 24, 2008, 07:35:23 PM »
i didn't really know where to post this so i just figured i'd put it here. anyway i want to get a tattoo of the wheel of time. i want it to be similar to the one on the maps in the hardcover copies but with some subtle differences. i want to keep the wheel and the snake and the big spear going straight through the middle. but i also want to change the big banner thing to a red tassel (or something along the lines of the seanchan spear that rand carries) and i also want to change the leaves on the bottom to resemble the taveren leaves a little more closely (like the ones used for chapter icons). anyone interested? i can't draw to save my life so i figured i'd see if someone who could could help me out. :)

i think its likely considering that about half their numbers were killed by marsh  at the end of mb1. i figure they would want more and they don't have to worry about them being loyal to the lord ruler anymore so they could just take a bunch of warriors and sacrifice a bunch of people and presto...a small army of inqs.

my thoughts exactly. and besides the lord ruler himself was an allomancer. he wouldn't want to have a bunch of other mistborn running around with a lot more atium than he himself had now would he.

It could just be assumed that the person needs to die.

too true. could be like pirates of the caribbean (the first one?) where he only pricked her when we all assumed he was gonna cut her throat.

ok so as i've mentioned before i think its possible that the voice of Reen she hears in her head which is kind of like her conscience but it could also be Ruin. i mean if Zane can think Ruin's voice is God then Vin could think her subconciouss speaking to her is Reen when it's really Ruin. but either way i don't think Ruin is giving Vin little hints. after all, he needs her to survive releasing him from the well but he'd hate to have her knowing a bunch of tricks to maybe defeat him...

i suppose its possible. i mean the sacrifice could just alloy the inqs to burn the spikes without ever burning them away.

hmmm...but does it have to be human sacrifice? maybe they could sacrifice a goat or something like that like the Greeks did. lol i'm just being the devils advocate here.

Maybe they can only be killed in their true form?

thats what i'm thinking. and maybe one kandra 'eats' another like they do with bodies.

hmm...but would his powers have even been similar to an allomancer's? i don't think they would have been but i could be wrong (its not too uncommon). i think inqs are some kind of hybrid between hemallurgy and allomancy and they still have to burn metals. its just difficult to say what exactly a hemallurgist could do if he weren't so dependant upon allomancy like the ones we've seen in the modern era.

that does seem like a possibility charity but i doubt he would have used it all. it was after all the economic foundation for his entire empire. i get the feeling the ventures shipped the metal into the city and the lord ruler then moved it out. maybe using a few skaa and then having them killed when their job was finished.

i agree with all but one point darxbane. i don't think it was the process of hemallurgy that gave them the powers of a mistborn. i think its the metal that elend ate that did it. although where they got so much of it when the swelled their ranks at the conventicle is beyond me.

you know you keep mentioning the black lake with the silvery sheen which was originally near the well of ascension. so i looked at the map in the front of the books. number 18 is the black lake and its right near luthadel. i figure thats the same lake. what are the odds that statlin city is on the shore of the black lake?
