* Who is Nazh? Who are they drawing everything for? A woman? Maybe Khriss? I am completely convinced it is Kriss. (WoB: Q: Who's Nazh? The person who retrieved Shallan's notebook...A: You have seen him before.) (WoB: Q: Is Hoid the most knowledgeable about what's going on in the cosmere? A: No, Khriss is the most aware by a long shot. Nazh knows a lot as well. Hoid might know more than Nazh but he is pretty in the know as well so it's close.)
* Does every world have a cognitive realm? A version of shadesmar? (YES, they would have to since that seems to be the way to world hop, and it seems everything has a Cognitive and Spiritual nature)
== [[Worldhoppers]]: ==
(FYI: We have seen worldhoppers from Roshar) http://theoryland.com/intvmain.php?i=1068#11)
=== [[Ars Arcanum]] Author ===
* (Probably Khriss)
* Member of the 17th Shard. (WoB: Q: In whose voice is the "Ars Arcanum" written? Hoid's? A: I've avoided answering that question. It's either Hoid or a member of the 17th Shard. That's as much answer as I'm giving anyone right now.)
* A Woman (Some post where Peter said it was not a coincidence that the audio book has it done by a woman)
* A Scholar, someone very interested in the magic of the worlds
=== [[Hoid]]: ===
* Bradon once said that Hoid could have his head cut off and it would grow back. How does that work? And did similar stuff work for the Lord Ruler? I think there was some WoB that said people had to be connected to the land or planet to stay.
* How much Breath does Hoid have? If stormlight can be used as breath, he would have unlimited.
* When did Hoid drink an alloy? That would imply he was already an allomancer, which means either he already used the Larasium, or he found another way. A flashback scene with Sallan? At the end of the chapter middlefest. WoB said it was something like we had seen in mistborn. (WoB: Q: What alloy did Hoid drink? A: Let's just say he was trying to make certain people act the way they wanted to.)
* What magic does Hoid currently have? (WoB: You know at least two of them. More obvious clues are in [Words of Radiance]. Watch where he and Kaladin have some interactions. Watch carefully, you will see something in what he mentions. You've seen him and Shallan, that scene in one of her flashbacks, in that scene he uses one if you watch.)
* How did hoid know shallan was a radiant, just by looking at her. What could he see? Is that an aspect of his breath? Is that why Zahel took an interest in Kalladin? Could he have used Bronze?
* He has the [[Moon Scepter]]? What is that? It is a scepter from [[the Emperor's Soul]]. There seems to be some question about if he actually took it, even though Shai thought he did. And the deleted scene, Hoid said he did. There is a wob that talks about what he would do with it, so I we know he has it and he is going to use it for something. And we know braize doesn't have it.
* Who did he write the letter to? He once said he came to Roshar to talk to someone, but ended up hiding from him instead. I think that implies that "him" is the same person he sent the letter to... but maybe not. I am currently leaning toward Frost.
* Someone suggested that Hoid was collecting stuff so he could reform Adonalsium. That seems like a cool idea. But also a little silly to think a Larasium bead would enough of a bit of Preservation to help with the reforming. And really, the whole idea is kinda dumb. The way to reform Adonalsium is to have one person collect all the shards. Why not go back to Scadrial and get an earring from a Kandra, and have a chat with Harmony to try to encourage him?
* How did he get feruchemy? Was he there at the beginning? Did he talk preservation into giving it to him?
* Second oldest in the Cosmere: (WoB: Frost is almost certainly the oldest by a small amount. After that, Hoid. https://www.goodreads.com/author/38550.Brandon_Sanderson/questions)
* What is Hoid looking for? (Q: Why does Hoid show up in all of your books? A: Because they're all connected and he's searching for something. http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/7267-words-of-brandon-compiled-x-2/)
* Hoids abilities:
** Yolish Lightweaving
** Being very very very hard to kill.
** Immortality, He is the second oldest in the cosmere
** Heals his Soul (Aluminum or Nicrosil Feruchemy?)
** Recognizes investiture in others (7th Heightening Breath, or Bronze Alomancy?)
** Ability to jump forward in time (Possibly uses Feruchemy?)
** Ability to know when and where to be for an important event... more or less (Possibly uses Feruchemy?)
** Worldhopping
=== [[Khriss]]: ===
* Is she a member of the 17th Shard? If she is the Author of the AA, then she is. We are 99% sure Baon is 17th shard, which to me would suggest she is as well.
* Is she the author of the AA? Brandon isn't saying, but he did say she is the most knowledgeable in the Cosmere.
* WoP "On Roshar many people would mistake her for Makabaki." (http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/6803-who-is-khriss/page-2)
* How did she become so knowledgeable about the Cosmere? Just because she is a scholar and has been around for so long? There is some quote about how she it very thorough in her research.
* How is she still around? What magic does she have? She must have learned how to do what Scythe could do, at least for his immortality.
* There was some quote about how she may or may not have been seen, he can't remember.
=== [[Nazh]]: ===
* Since he works for Khriss, (http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/14404-manchester-signing-august-5-2014/page-2#entry167585) he is probably also a member of the 17th Shard, since she seems to be the Author of the AA, and that person is a member of the 17th shard.
* He is from Threnody (http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/14339-qs-and-as-from-the-london-signing/)
* I think he has shown up in many of the other books. (http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/7267-words-of-brandon-compiled-x-2/ search for Threnody)
=== [[Galladon|Galladon / Grump]]: ===
* Member of the 17th Shard
* How did he learn to worldhop?
* Does not have lightweaving or shapeshifting
* Does not have auto-translation
=== [[Demoux|Demoux / Thinker]]: ===
* Member of the 17th Shard
* How did he learn?
* Does not have lightweaving or shapeshifting
* Does not have auto-translation

* http://www.theoryland.com/intvmain.php?i=1047#6
* Does not have lightweaving or shapeshifting
* Does not have auto-translation
=== [[Mraize]]: ===
* Mraize is a worldhopper? Go back and review the contents of his room (Chapter 43). He talked like an extreme wonderer. He was possibly referenced in one of the writings of the Diagram as the Wanderer. (WoB: Q: I picked up the Easter Eggs for Mraize being a Worldhopper. It was actually the sand that did it, having been fortunate enough to read White Sand. A: Now there's something odd about that sand. What color is the sand in WoR?)
* Member (leader?) of the GhostBloods.
* Items in the room
** Giant uncut Gemhearts, not infused with stormlight
** Familiar looking shells
** Tusk, possibly from a whitesprine
** Eye socket, structure of a santhid's skull?
** Vial of pale sand (possibly from White Sands)
** Thick hairpins
** Lock of golden hair (from warbreaker?)
** Tree branch, strange writing
** A silver knife
** An odd flower (from warbreaker?)
** Pale pink crystal, delicate
* Note from WW: -According to Peter, Mraize is from Thaylenah, does Shallan just never mention his eyebrows or is he not ethnically Thaylen?
* Dont know what he looks like but he is Thaylen. (WoP: And I wasn't being sarcastic or joking when I said I thought it was obvious from the text that Mraize was a Thaylen from Thaylenah. [http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/20500-orem-library-signing-on-december-6/?p=204236 Peter talks about Signing])
=== [[Iyatil]] ===
* She has an odd world view that is unlike anything else we have seen on the world. She seems like she MUST be a worldhopper
* Yup. She is the one that takes Mraize to other worlds. (WoB: Mraize. Is he a world hopper? Yes, he’s been to a few planets, highly supervised by his babsk. [http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/20500-orem-library-signing-on-december-6/?p=204063 Orem Lib Signing Dec 2014])
* She is not from Roshar (WoB: So what planet is she from? Well, that’s kind of a hard thing to say. She has 3 planets she’s “from”. For example, she’s living now on Roshar, but then she’s from a different planet, but that’s not a planet that her people are from. [http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/20500-orem-library-signing-on-december-6/?p=204063 Orem Lib Signing Dec 2014])
=== [[Vasher|Vasher/Zahel]]: ===
* Was born on Nalthis, died there, became a Returned, and a scholar.
* Was he the First Returned? No. But one of the 5 Scholars.
* Has shapeshifting through being returned.
* Has auto-translation? Or the ability to learn a language quickly? Perhaps through Breath as well?
* Can he use stormlight to awaken things?
=== Unknown Terriswoman ===
* http://theoryland.com/intvmain.php?i=1078#5
* She shows up in Warbreaker.
=== Unknown Kandra(s) ===
* Q: Are there kandra hiding in any of your books, besides the Mistborn ones? A: Yes there are! [smugly] yes there are... [http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/7267-words-of-brandon-compiled-x-2/ Link]
* Female. and Agent of Sazed. [http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/17056-the-ultimate-slc-comic-con-stalker-strategy-thread/page-2#entry178866 Link]
* Not MeLaan. [http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/20500-orem-library-signing-on-december-6/?p=204063 Orem Library Signing]
* The form we see her is not always female. [http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/20500-orem-library-signing-on-december-6/?p=204063 Orem Library Signing]
* Very few, or none, lines on-screen. [http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/20500-orem-library-signing-on-december-6/?p=204063 Orem Library Signing]
=== [[Felt]]? ===
* Spy for house Venture: He is described as lithe and short with a hawkish face and a drooping moustache.
* Scout, member of the team searching the shattered plains, (WoR pg 982), Thin man.
=== [[Dragon]]: ===
* Some character from Dragonsteel? An actual dragon. http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/3962-the-recipient-of-the-letter-is-a-dragon/
* I dont know if he worldhops. No evidence yet of that.
* Seems to be the recipient of the Letter.
* Might be Frost?
=== [[Frost]]? ===
* Friend of Hoid (http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/14339-qs-and-as-from-the-london-signing/page-2#entry166821)
* Oldest in the cosmere: (WoB: Frost is almost certainly the oldest by a small amount. After that, Hoid. https://www.goodreads.com/author/38550.Brandon_Sanderson/questions)
* Could he be the dragon?
=== [[Shai]] ===
* Brandon responded to a question about Shai being on Roshar and he said we have not seen her yet. I think that would imply that we could, so watch out for her.
