Brandon Sanderson / Re: Hoid??
« on: March 18, 2009, 03:45:23 PM »
Most likely it was just too subtle for me to notice on my skim-through. In HoA, he's only mentioned for a couple of paragraphs.

I'd give it a week before the entirety of the world would be blithering slaves bowing at his feet. lol.

Not only that, but the look of the world would be entirely different....I mean, Breeze definitely has style. Therefore, the world would probably be red...Maybe.

Enter Breeze:

Quote from: Breeze
And all the plants should be red.  Except the roses.   Don't paint the roses.

Here's the actual quote from Breeze "Red--you'd always be thinking, 'Why, look at that. That hill is red. That evil force of doom trying to destroy me certainly has style.' "

Haha...Preservation is everywhere!

Too bad. I'm pretty sure that I saw someone mention in the HoA thread that Brandon listed the books Hoid was in at a signing and WoA was in there. Anyway, someone else can try looking for it.

Hanami - You can read the Book of Mormon online at lds.org/scriptures or you can request a free copy at mormon.org. Other editions are available, but they are harder to find (aka not free).

Ok, I skimmed through WoA and I still don't know who Hoid is. Some possibilities:

the dressmaker
wolfhound merchant
Noorden? the obligator who helps out with the government, but I think he shows up in the next book. And he has tattoos.
Granny ?, (sneaks people out of the city) except she's a woman and seems to have been around for quite a while
random skaa that Sazed meets before coming to Luthadel, but I don't know what Hoid would be doing in the middle of nowhere
Terris person from the group that flees to Luthadel, but not likely he could infiltrate that quickly

This was just a quick skim, so I probably missed him somewhere. Someone else should look through WOA and see what they think. Or maybe Ookla could just tell us all.   ;)

Well, if there is a darkfriend among Logain's group, it could be a feint. I think it is definitely possible that there is a darkfriend in there somewhere.

Bastille, that's how I pictured Bastille too. I don't know why. She just sounds like it.

Because Grandpa Smedry arrives late to everything? (especially bad stuff)

Oh yeah, I remember. But I don't know who sent it.

Didn't RJ clarify that for us already?

Yes, but someone suggested RJ might be lying, although I don't know if he was being serious.

He could've been lying t us. I hear authors do that sort of thing ALL the time. (Yes, I'm looking at YOU Alcatraz Smedry!) :D

But Olver is too old to be Gaidal. I know the timing in TAR is messed up but I don't think it's that messed up.

My library finally got the 2nd Alcatraz so now I can read this thread! Most of my ideas about the next book have been covered. The only thing I'm wondering about is the translator lenses. Obviously they are a big plot point, so there has to be something interesting to be read running around somewhere. What is it? I am guessing maybe more about Alcatraz's talent or the whole Identity/Possibility thing. Ookla says we will know more of the overall plot of the series after this book so I'm sure that the next book will answer/raise a lot of questions. Does anyone know how many books are planned in the series?

I agree it was a channeler, probably one of the Forsaken. It's not like every time Avi or Rand sense someone using the Power they freak out and have to know who it was. Also, it definitely could have been too little of the power to sense. The few times that people mentioned sensing the Power over a significant distance have all been ALOT of power being used.
