Magnus archives Cosmere crossover
The fear entities are a shard (Fear) that doesn’t have a vessel and is also in the process of shattering but not completely shattered. Hence the different entities but they are all still connected. Each entity could be considered a splinter of the shard once it finished shattering.
The rituals are all attempts to create a perpendicularity. They don’t work unless you use the power of the entire shard; one entity is not powerful enough on its own to create a perpendicularity.
The entities exist in a realm adjacent to ours, could 100% be the cognitive realm.
Avatars are amazed and jealous of Radiants abilities to manifest their spren in the physical realm at will.
Much like the Dor on Sel, some entities are developing sentience without a vessel, like the web.
Jon ascends to become the vessel of the fear shard in the season 4 finale.
Michael/Helen were the spirals attempt to cause an ascension, but similarly to the rituals, to fully ascend you need to be marked by all the entities.
Silverlight researchers are fascinated by how the fear shard is naturally splintering, and are studying the formations of the fears in relation to the formations of spren on Roshar.
Researchers do not like the Magnus institute on moral grounds but are also more or less willing to work with them because they want to know more. The eye absolutely steals people visiting from the Silverlight universities.
The avatars are interested in emotional allomancy and wonder if they could feed off fear caused by allomancy.
The cult of the lightness flame is incredibly proud of the fact that on Roshar, the wars are al called Desolations. They love the True Desolation and would absolutely help Odium.
Avatars are embarrassed by Roshars fear spren. Their fear spren are clearly superior.
Radiants are jealous of Vast avatars seemingly endless ability to use the surge of gravitation without oaths or need for stormlight.
Avatars who do not want to feed off of fear could feed off pure dor, but not stormlight. Basically fear is being converted into investiture to feed the entities and much like Elantrians, (but unlike radiants or allomancers) they need investiture to sustain them.
Near death experiences to become avatars work in a similar way as snapping in allomancy/trauma for radiants. Gotta have that to rip a hole into your soul wide enough for a fear entity to slip in.
Eye avatars are terrified by shard blades and their abilities to burn out eyes. Also they don’t like deadeyes. Also steel inquisitors. Hemalurgy would be very scary.
Salesa’s camera works just like aluminum, or maybe like soothing fear or a copper cloud. All three maybe lol.
Artifact storage really wants a soul caster. Or any fabrial really.
Forgery could be used to mimic avatar powers or mimic a mark of an entity
Aviar could be used like selasa’s camera.
The web uses spirit webs and connection to manipulate people.
The End is the only entity with future sight, as seen with Oliver Banks who knows people will die before they do. Other entities do not have this.
The slaughter and the thrill would get alone very well.
Kelsier would be a hunt avatar if he was ever able to get his ass off scadrial and to tma earth. As would a lot of the rosharan ghostbloods I guess loll.
Most avatars could not become radiants, but eye and spiral avatars could be come lightweavers. Lightweavers because they don’t need oaths beyond the first. And they speak truths specifically, which I think the eye would like. Spiral not so much but it would appreciate the lies lightweavers tell enough to not complain too much. Maybe the eye avatars could also become truth watchers.
Cryptics would be fascinated by the spiral. Avatars would initially assume cryptics are manifestations of the spiral.
Avatars would have mixed feelings on Harmony because balance is such a big deal with the fears.
Elias would be pissed that so many people figured out immortality before him.
Any Radiant gets thrown into the lonely:
immediately summons shardblade. “What is this place?”
Spren, “I think it’s the lonely, I’ve heard about it!” Radiant,” Well it didn’t work very well”
Elias and the fused are both body hopping cognitive shadows.
These are just my ideas that have been rattling around in my brain, I would love to hear others! What would hoid think of this world? Could he even get to the physical realm? He would need to get through the fear entities so maybe?
