    Interview: Dec 6th, 2016

    Argent

    So, the Edgedancer’s Resonance, the Perk? You’ve called it Resonance at some point, is that still accurate?

    Brandon Sanderson

    Yeah, that totally works. The powers affect each other in interesting ways.

    Argent

    Right.

    Brandon Sanderson

    Um, so the thing about it is, calling it a Perk, that like saying--

    Argent

    It’s a side effect right?

    Brandon Sanderson

    It’s...yes a “side effect”, it’s like, when the powers merge, they are always slightly different. For instance, Lightweaving from a Truthwatcher is different slightly--there will be things. So, you’re gave access to the Surges, but in combinations, they act a little differently from one another.

    Argent

    So is the Edgedancer’s Resonance something to do with communication? Because we see Lift…

    Brandon Sanderson

    Yeah, yeah we’ll RAFO that.

    Footnote

    In the answer, "Lightweaving" should be Illuminating instead (Lightweaving is an order, Illumination is the surge).

    Interview: Dec 6th, 2016

    Argent

    Staying on Scadrial, have we seen the Resonances of either Wax or Wayne?

    Brandon Sanderson

    Yes, well, Wax is really good a sculpting bullets and things away from him.

    Argent

    The bubble.

    Brandon Sanderson

    Yeah and things like this. This is playing with the fact that he is-- let’s just say that the abilities make this happen, and I’ll let you theorize on why, but it’s just an enhancement to what he can do.

    Argent

    I might be wrong, but I thought you said it was because he was becoming a Steel Savant.

    Brandon Sanderson

    Yeah, definitely, but this is what that’s coming from.

    Argent

    But being a Savant has to do with being really good with one power, and Resonance--

    Brandon Sanderson

    Being a savant has to do with using Investiture a lot, and it’s starting to permeate your soul.

    Argent

    So he’s more of a Savant with both of--

    Brandon Sanderson

    He’s used them a lot, and they are changing his soul, and so the powers are morphing and changing, just in slight, little ways, you’re not gonna see a whole bunch. Well, you can imagine these powers are sort of becoming one to him.

    Argent

    Yeah, I can see that. And Wayne?

    Brandon Sanderson

    Wayne’s is not as obvious, I’ll go ahead and RAFO that right now.
