==Personal List of Questions for Brandon:==
===Cosmere/Crossover===
#You've used the term spiritual DNA. Every cell in our body has a complete copy of our physical DNA, and With the right tools a small sample of DNA can tell you a ton about the person it came from. Is the same true of sDNA? Could a forensic analysis of a piece of identity (e.g. left in a metalmind or an awakened object) paint a complete picture of the user's origins and/or spiritweb? Do such tools exist in the Cosmere?▼
#If you operated an airplane or
#A person has their arm cut by a shardblade, making it a dead limb. Eventually they die and an awakener tries to make a Lifeless from their body. Will the Lifeless have a functional arm, or will it remain cognitively/spiritually separate?▼
##If the awakener met the person while they were still alive, would they be able to awaken the limb, making a partial Lifeless? Would the arm be able to obey instructions (from someone with the command phrase) like a regular lifeless would?▼
#Harmony did something to the people of Scadrial that has made it easier for them to snap. If one of these post-Catacendre Scadrians were to travel to Roshar, would the change that Harmony made make it easier for them to bond a spren?▼
#Could a kandra wear the body of a Sleepless?▼
#Would the emotions of a cognitive shadow attract spren in Shadesmar?
#Has the total number of perpendicularities increased since the shattering?
##thought process:You've told us that twinborn, for example, get particular perks, while mistborn/full-feruchemists get the full power but no Resonances. Are intents loosely analogous to the Resonances in this way?
#If Ruin and Preservation had picked Roshar instead of Scadrial, would magical abilities still divide into sets of 16? Would they still be based on metals?
#Gravity appears constant between areas of the cognitive realm, regardless of their spacial relationship to a planet vs intervening space. Does it vary between planets?
