Vivenna and Vasher are both SO BAD at being worldhoppers!

They are both constantly like “lol you people are so crazy here on this...uh, country? you guys have those right? *insert idiom that makes no sense* blah blah *vague ominous comments that no Rosharan would say or think* lol you humans on Roshar are so weird *uses colors as swears* Yes I am much older than I look. Oops, hair changed color again lemme just fix that.”

Like they might as well be like “WE ARE FROM ANOTHER PLANET” because honestly Nightblood is doing a better job being low key and Hoid would be too if he wasn’t intentionally being a drama queen at all times

“We need more, who will be. Who?”

“I can think of one…who would be a perfect choice…”

-Rhythm of War, Brandon Sanderson

I just want you all to know that I read each and every single tag on the last Renarin and Rlain picture, and I want to say I see you. I hear your thirst. :D 

Thanks for making my first post into this fandom a hit! And thanks for getting me to 4,500 followers!

Secret Sazed

Welcome to the 2020 Secret Sazed gift exchange! We all have a shared passion for the Cosmere, Brandon Sanderson, and reading. Let's share the love :-) 2020 is the 6th year of Secret Sazed. We are a secret gift exchange between fans of Brandon Sanderson. If you join, you will be given a semi-random gift target for whom you are expected to send a gift. You will also be given to somebody as a target for whom they are expected to send a gift. Most people create handmade gifts to send to their targets based on the interests of those targets. There is no minimum or maximum value of the gifts given, but please make it something creative & related to Brandon Sanderson in general and especially the Cosmere. You can choose to give Digital or Physical gifts. If you are going to send both, please choose Physical. Some examples would be a bookmark, a drawing, a poem or story, a custom Lego minifig, an audio recording of a passage of a book, a lovingly hand-made mistcloak. Be creative and have fun! You may choose whether you only want to Give or both Give and Receive gifts. This is open internationally, but if you are outside of the United States, there is no guarantee that you will be assigned someone in your region. To keep informed, I recommend signing up for the newsletter (https://tinyletter.com/secretsazed) or joining the Facebook Group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/secretsazed/), but neither are required :-) If you have questions, please check the FAQ http://bit.ly/SecretSazedFAQ then email me at [email protected] Happy holidays, Mark Scrudder, AKA snarkspren

Signups are now open for Secret Sazed 2020 :-) If you haven’t participated before, this is a secret Santa-style gift exchange for fans of Brandon Sanderson. This will be our 6th year and we typically get around 100 participants from all over the world (but mostly in the US) Most gifts are handmade and we’ve seen everything from paintings to knitted goods, from sculptures to bookmarks, from an exploding teddybear to a handcrafted journal. There’s also an option for store-bought if you’re not a crafty sort. If you’re interested, fill out this form. If you have questions, there’s an FAQ linked to from the form.

There's a Kandra on Roshar?

Yes! There are possibly multiple kandra in non-mistborn books. This makes sense considering that Sazed is now a shard interested in the cosmere, the kandra are (generally) his eyes and ears, and there’s precedent for kandra to have had interactions with other worlds (Paalm received metal spikes that Sazed couldn’t recognize).  Skaiiwalker: Are there any kandra on Roshar?

Brandon Sanderson: Yes.

&

Questioner: Are there kandra hiding in any of your books, besides the Mistborn ones?Brandon Sanderson: Yes there are! Yes there are.

[sebarial-the-economist]

It’s not Axes the Collector, is it?

[onlycosmere]

Funny you ask that. I believe Axies may be the only character on Roshar whom we have a WoB confirming they are NOT a kandra.

[sebarial-the-economist]

(I forgot to post this reply awhile ago.)  I learned the hard way that even a (Mistborn spoilers) can be impersonated by a kandra, so now I’m just going to assume that unless a character has had a recent POV in which they explicitly state that they haven’t been killed and had their bones used as a framework for a whole-body impersonation, they’ve actually been replaced by a kandra. 

 Key suspects: 

-Rysn’s babsk 

- Shallan’s brothers 

 - That lady in the Ghostbloods 

- The ardent reading the romance novel 

- Adrotagia

 Could a kandra impersonate an axehound?  What about a chasm fiend? Seriously, how would they handle an exoskeleton?

[onlycosmere]

So, kandra could impersonate an axehound, but they’d need help to get around the square cube law when it comes to chasmfiends.  (Chasmfiends only are able to exist because of their spren bonds)

They cannot digest carapace though, so they would need to ‘wear’ it like they do with hair, nails, and bones. I’d imagine that would be frustratingly tricky.

[uovoc]

fun kandra sport: roaming the cosmere looking for the coolest creatures to impersonate and then bringing their bones home so your friends can try it too

We’re working on doing an off-season Secret Sazed since we’re stuck in isolation.

I’ll try to post something here when it goes live, but you can also join the Facebook Group (search for Secret Sazed, I don’t have the pink off-hand) and sign up for the newsletter (link on the FB Group).

I hope you all are well. We have been Very ill but are finally recovering.

[snarkspren]

So you know.
