Theory Index

A collection of cosmere theories from 17th Shard gathered here. For now, just a list - will be sorting them by category, author, etc as time allows.


Key

Locations

  • Sel
  • Scadrial
  • Nalthis
  • Roshar
  • Threnody
  • Cosmere

Categories

  • Realmatic (Magic system related)
  • Plot (Story Event related)
  • Character (Character Specific)
  • World (Related to the premise or the worldbuilding)
  • Joke (for joke theories)

Theory Tags

  • Template:TheoryTag - Exceptional Theory. At least a page long, significant demonstration of logic, clear support from texts, good formatting and presentation, and has significant impact.
  • Template:TheoryTag - Excellent Theory. More than a few paragraphs, has specific support from texts, demonstrates good logic, has clear formatting, and is presented neatly.
  • Template:TheoryTag - Great Theory. More than a few paragraphs, has general support from texts, and demonstrates good logic.
  • Template:TheoryTag - Under developed theory. This theory has only a couple sentences or less, and only generic references if that. Needs help.

Note: The tags do not reflect the likeliness of a theory being correct, only its quality. Better constructed theories will be higher ranked.

Topics

Cosmere Realms, Investiture, Splinters, Shards, Hoid, Magic Interaction,
Sel
Scadrial God Metals,
Nalthis
Roshar Desolations
Other Chronology, FTL

Theorists/Theories Canvassed:

April 27th - Tempus, Veil, Awesomeness Summoned, Skaa, R`Shara, DigitalBusker, Satsuoni, Aether
April 27th - Warbreaker forum, all of it
May 1st - Updated Tempus (because it's me!) and Skaa (he did that). Improved the formatting a bit. Added the entire Elantris and Emperor's Soul forum.
May 7th - Wow, didn't realize it's already been a week. Redid the tagging system, and went through some old theories to tag and topic them. Doing the topics and tags takes much longer! At the moment, because I started with theorists I thought were particularly good, there are more silver and gold theories than bronze and regular. This should change as I go through theory sections more generally and not by author.
