I just started and I'm pleasantly surprised to find another pretty original magic system (It seems a little too voodoo oriented to be fully original)

The description of magic is quite interesting, but the BioChromatic sounds too high tech for the world I'm expecting robots or cloning tanks at the least when I hear BioChromatic. 
To ease me into the world why not Chromancy, ChromaticArts, or Chromatology?

One more nitpick

The man hung from the ceiling, naked and chained
I thought that he was hung when I first read this, perhaps "Chains hung the naked prisoner to the ceiling" or something of the like -- emphasizing not hanging, but chains.

By the way the earlier thread about apostrophes opened my eyes to how others could find them annoying -- I find that they fill the gap that a schwa cannot easily fill.  (the upsidedown e saying -- I don't make much sound.)

Thank you Euol for giving us the chance to make our comments.

Sorry if I missed a post in the 29 pages hence.

I think that Summer Glau probably could pull off Vin, most of the others I don't think could do enough of the stunts -- Though maybe it could be done in an oriental film (it has the right type of feel with the pushing and pulling)

Jackie chan could pull off Kelser -- I'd imagine that he'd do amazing stunts -- though he may not be charismatic enough -- I haven't seen him in non-english.

If not Patrick Stewart could probably pull off Sazed quite well.


These parts would be hard to fill without losing a lot with regard to stunts (And the movie would need about an hour of stunts and 5 hours total)
