Interview #1148: Shadows of Self-Denver

Summary

Entry #1

Kayla

Is the use of the color red before/during bad events a deliberate pattern?

Brandon Sanderson

Yes. ((this is made worse because every personalized book I saw had “hands all red….” written in them. I AM AFRAID.))

Entry #2

Kayla

Is it possible to use a Steelpush while wearing Shardplate?

Brandon Sanderson

After some confusion re: not Pushing on the Plate, but something else: yes. And we… think the mass of the plate would be what determined the force needed, not its (much lighter) effective weight to the bearer.

Entry #3

Kogi

Sarene’s eye color?

Brandon Sanderson

Email Peter. (I will actually do it this time!)

Entry #4

Kogi

Anything you can tell us about santhids?

Brandon Sanderson

They’re one of a few Rosharan animals with a degree of sentience. It’s easier on Roshar for this to happen.

Kayla

Because of Cultivation?

Brandon Sanderson

Yes.

Footnote

Also, Santhids aren’t based on anything in particular on Earth (sad marine biologist face)

Entry #5

Granvil4

I asked if Sazed is the only one to hold more than one Shard.

Brandon Sanderson

“Sazed is the only one to currently hold two Shards.” After a few seconds, he added, “I’m not going to say he is the only one to ever hold two.” That’s all he said about it though.

Entry #6

PallonianFire

Does Khriss have a way of changing her appearance?

Brandon Sanderson

Yes.

Entry #7

PallonianFire

Is Vathi Khriss?

Brandon Sanderson

No, someone else. But you’ll see Khriss in a soon-to-be-published book.
