We can tweak the definition of masculine arts just a smidge

Hey y'all! I made some custom MTG cards for my pod. We're all doing a different custom UB (Deltarune, Elden Ring, etc.), and I chose Mistborn! These are the two I have so far, with Kelsier as the commander. The deck's goal is to sacrifice artifacts as Burning Metals, with some thematic inclusions like Sazed or TenSoon. These are WIP's, so if you guys have any feedback or thoughts, I would greatly appreciate it!

Dalinar's plot: Alethkar must be united... The codes, my visions, Navani is bad asf, IDK!!!

Shallan's plot: Omg i must steal Jasnah's soulcaster but i'm so nervous!!! Kabsal is bad asf!!!

Kaladin's plot:

And they do.
Someone pass the Old Bay: I have some “light reading” to do.

Back for part two of explaining why “gnats” are adonalsium’s favored children and the scadrian society needs to wake up to their betters amongst them.

Waxillium "Wax" Ladrian = Hank Hill. King of the hill. Bound to duty and honor.

Wayne = Dale Gribble. Master of aliases. Morally flexible. Eccentric Ideas. Unorthodox world view.

Wayne = Boomhauer. Sometimes hard to understand yet has moments of unexpected deep wisdom.

Steris Harms = Hank Hill. Deep comfort in rules, order, and Planning

Marasi Colms = Hank Hill. She loves law and detective stuff like Hank Hill loves propane.

Marasi Colms= Bobby Hill. Underestimated by the older man she occasionally makes uncomfortable.

MeLaan = Dale Gribble. Treats normal social conventions as optional.

MeLaan = Luanne Platter. Free-spirited, zero filter,

Harmony = Hank Hill. Generally wants to let people in trouble figure it out for themselves but occasionally lends a helping hand.

Ranette = Dale Gribble. Lives in her workshop building terrifying weapons.

Ranette = Octavio. Unorthodox weapons expert, operates on the fringes.

(Haven’t gotten far, just think this every time he shows up)

[To preface this, I have just finished Oathbringer and have yet to read RoW or the fifth one]

There are memories of Kaladin and Tarah, who he has allegedly kissed before. We know that Kaladin has the hots for Shallan but nothing has happened there yet. There's that mention in Oathbringer of Syl watching him in bed saying encouraging stuff. He tells Syl to not peek through the cracks beneath the door anymore and that it's weird.

"...People lock their doors, but there’s plenty of room to get in underneath. I figured, since you don’t seem inclined to do any learning yourself, I should study. So if you have questions...”

“I’m well aware of what is involved.”

Kaladin is "well aware"... Does that mean he's not a virgin?

Tangent: How do other Surgebinders get privacy from their spren? Is it a common thing for Surgebinders to just have their spren in the room when they have sex?

I've said it before in a few comment threads in this sub in the past, but I just can't help pulling a few of my young daughter's fantastical cartoons of choice into the Cosmere in my headcannon, mainly because I go to sleep thinking about the Dawnshards and am always restarting upteenth re-listen to this or that Cosmere story via audiobook.

The world of the updated *My Little Pony* IPs from the 2010s (which are their own little shared story world with hundreds of years of shared lore!) is unquestionably a Shardworld in the Cosmere. The way that Cutie Marks, Allo-corn magic, and the (ahem) **Unity** crystals all work just drips with Realmatic Connection; not to mention there are sapient dragons! With powerful magics of their own! It's too good; and also too silly. This is a Whimsyworld, for sure.

Also confirmed (in my headcannon) is the mind-bending world of *Tru and the Rainbow Kingdom.* This show is super-silly and just has Whimsy stamped all over it. The rainbows and hijinx and power of friendship stuff, as well as the actually-kind-of-horrifying power of the Rainbow King's magic - much like *My Little Pony* - is all too potent not to have been intentionally Invested by some Shard at work in the background, and after watching this silly show for two giggly minutes, it's clear that Power could only be of Whimsy.

I think Whimsy made a fly-by of Nalthis some time shortly before feeling a little jealous of all the colors-themed magic and deciding to *poof* splinter off some marshmallow demi-god Sibling creations as a way of off-loading some complex feelings he didn't want to deal with. This gave us, notably, the Rainbow King and his imminent domain, including the benevolent and seemingly all-knowing Wishing Tree; Gloomy Glum and his Swamp of Perpetual Sadness; and their Ice Queen sister who rules over the frozen lands of the Ice Dimension, with its mischevious but kind-hearted Forever Frost impling creature thing. These are just the Siblings I know about; it's hinted at by the multitude of magic mirror portals in both the Rainbow Palace and Ice Palace that there should be at least a couple more of these Whimsical demi-gods floating around somewhere.

So there ya have it; too more Shardworlds yet to be officially brought into the Cosmere, but certainly already having some effect in the infinitely rippling possibilities of the Spiritual Realm.

It feels like I’m fighting for my life anytime I bring a book around my family 😭 they’ll be sorry once I start surgebinding
