Brandon Sanderson / Re: ***SPOILERS Official Hero of Ages Spoilers Thread. Includes Q&A w/Brandon****
« on: January 30, 2009, 08:47:38 AM »
Okay, this is my first time posting here, so I'll just start out with the usual: Brandon Sanderson, you are amazing, Mistborn is my favorite series, you make all the rest of us writers feel inadequate, so on and so forth. Moving on...
I did have a few questions, mostly about allomantic savants. Sazed talks about it a little, and we see the side effects of tin with Spook. However, other than that, we don't get much detail. I mean, I think we can all figure out what a pewter savant would be like on our own, but I am curious about copper savants. What are the effects of that? Sazed did mention they were there, even though most people missed them. And what about iron/steel? Zinc/brass? Tin and pewter make sense, but I can't figure out anything for the other metals--except, perhaps, an increased skill while burning them, and withdrawal-like symptoms if not.
Oh, and if this has already been answered, I'm sorry. I tried reading through the entire thread, got to page twenty six or so, and decided it wasn't worth the effort.
