Brandon Sanderson / Re: is Talenel dead or not?
« on: March 14, 2011, 06:16:49 PM »
Well, I know Brandon said somewhere that there was a future viewpoint character introduced in the prologue. So Talenel is really the only option. So he is either alive, or he will be again some time in the future. That, or Brandon just changed his plans.

Brandon Sanderson / Re: Soulcasting and AonDor too powerful!

You all are forgetting the most limiting factor of AonDor: Time and mobility. Unlike every other magic system named here, you must stand still until the Aon is complete. Depending on how many modifiers are used and how much you practice, that time could be very long. Here is a test, get a piece of paper and see how long it takes you to draw a perfect Aon with modifiers.

Brandon Sanderson / Re: Roshar and the Ocean. (very minor spoilers)

On a side note, I'd add that many of the creatures so described can't exist in our world, simply because an exoskeleton becomes impractical when it gets scaled up too large (the muscles have a hard time supporting the bulk; muscle strength goes up linearly in size, while mass goes up as the cube).  It's probably not a coincidence that all those creatures have gems in them.  I'm repeating the speculation of others here, but I find their arguments convincing.
Adding to this, Brandon confirmed somewhere that Roshar has less gravity than earth. I believe it was 85 percent of earths but i could be wrong.
Also, how is Roshar not in the spellcheck here?  ???
