Endowment. Pride.

[shreekofjoy]

My personal canon is that the Shards don't hate Hoid because he's annoying or Hoidish or whatever-have-you.

No no no, they hate him because he ate the last slice of Pizza in one of their Shattering Planning meetups.

Cosmere Musical Chairs: Shards of Adonalsium Edition

As requested by anon :)

[THIS LIST CONTAINS WAT SPOILERS! AND JUST SPOILERS IN GENERAL]

It's Musical Chairs! Only instead of finding a seat, you're getting stuck with a Shard at random. I'm including all known Shards (including hybrid ones) as well as all known Vessels......plus Hoid. Which means we have 17 players but only 16 Shards. Because, well, we need to have 1 extra person to make it proper Musical Chairs, right? Let's see if Hoid lucks out again! And yes, this will be genuinely randomized!

1. Devotion: Edgli (previously Cultivation)

Edgli: Hell yeah. I'm going to do WAY better with this than Aona did. Edgli: First, I'm not going to break the pact by trying to go to the same planet as someone else (which literally never works out so I don't know why Vessels keep trying it). Edgli: Next, I'm going to shower everybody with presents and affection forever. Edgli: Yup. I got this.

2. Dominion: Sazed (previously Harmony)

Sazed: ... Sazed: Uh....huh. Sazed: M-Maybe I can turn the Intent to amass power and influence and control into something...positive? Like, I'm collecting everyone into my warm embrace! Sazed: So that I can control their every move forever. Sazed: ... Sazed: Uh oh.

3. Preservation: Koravellium Avast (previously Cultivation)

Koravellium: ... Koravellium: Are you fucking kidding me.

4. Ruin: Bavadin (previously Autonomy)

Bavadin: Oh ho. Bavadin: Yeah, the world is pretty doomed. Bavadin: I'm very good at destruction.

5. Harmony: Tanavast (previously Honor)

Tanavast: Y-Yeah! Maybe this is another chance for me! Tanavast: I-I'll do it right! I won't get so frozen by the conflict between my Shard's Intent and my own personality that I muck everything up! Tanavast: Now, as a being of both Ruin and Preservation I'll, uh... I'll... Tanavast: ... Tanavast: Nope. Frozen again. Tavanast: Well, fuck me, I guess.

6. Odium: Skai (previously Dominion)

Skai: Eh, I was Dominion before. Skai: This probably won't be too hard. Skai: ... Skai: Wait, why do I suddenly have so many feelings??

7. Cultivation: Leras (previously Preservation)

Leras: NOOOOOO Leras: NOT THE FUCKING SHARD OF CHAAAAANGE

8. Honor: Ati (previously Ruin)

Ati: ... Ati: Hey. Ati: Maybe this is finally my chance to be kind...?

9. Endowment: Chan Ko Sar (previously Invention)

Chan Ko Sar: Well...nobody said what kind of gifts I have to give people, right? Chan Ko Sar: I bet everybody would LOVE to get some complicated machines!

10. Autonomy: Taravangian (previously Odium/Retribution)

Taravangian: Oh yes, very good. Very good indeed. Taravangian: I'll have the Cosmere under my thumb in, like, six months. Tops.

11. Ambition: Euridius (previously Reason)

Euridius: Ugh, really? Euridius: Yes, I have recently come to realize that hiding forever so that I can survive might not be the...absolutely best strategy. Euridius: But Ambition? Being big and bold and full of myself? Euridius: What a freakin' headache.

12. Invention: Medelantorius (previously Valor)

Medelantorius: Well, I know one thing. I'm not going to be spending my time making a bunch of useless shit. Chan Ko Sar: Unnecessary??? Medelantorious: I'm going to making weapons.

13. Valor: Hoid

Hoid: ... Hoid: ... Hoid: Well, this is awkward for a lot of reasons.

14. Reason: Aona (previously: Devotion)

Aona: I am glad that, as a healer, I was not given one of the more...violent Intents. Aona: And I will not be hiding. Aona: When the Cosmere is in peril, to act with Reason is to help those who need it. Euridius: ...Ouch.

15. Retribution: Rayse (previously Odium)

Rayse: THIS IS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE

16. Left out--received no Shard: Ula Da (previously Ambition)

Ula Da: What?!? Ula Da: I don't GET one?! Ula Da: OH COME ON Edgli: ...Some people would view that as a mercy. Ula Da: Yeah, STUPID people. Edgli: ... Edgli: And people wondered why I was glad you were dead.

[gildedicicle]

Does anyone else think that the reason Hoid chooses to be so directly involved with the whole Rosharan affair, is that he specifically refused to take up the Shard of Odium, and therefore leaving it to be taken by Rayse, a man he despised, ignorant or uncaring of the consequences? The letter from Endowment in the Oathbringer epigraphs seems to imply (well, directly state, but who's to say how trustworty a source she is) that he didn't just choose to sit out on deification, but instead actively refused it.

Our poor jester might act so directly against Odium out of guilt over what Rayse did to Aona, Skai, Uli Da and eventually, Tanavast, thinking he could have prevented it if he had only taken it up himself.

EDGLI GIRL SPILL THE TEA PLEASE!!! SHARE THE HOID X VALOR DRAMA WITH THE REST OF THE CLASS

[breadraccoon]

Which of the shard are lgbtq+? There are 16 of them. They all can’t be straight.

Tanavast is a certified straight tho. Only a straight man can have such audacity as to continue a society restarting war for 1000s of years. Edgli, on the other hand, raging lesbian. She does not tolerate men’s bullshit.
