    Will we see any Shardholders beyond the three already at work? Specifically, will we see Bavadin?

    Interview: Mar 6th, 2014

    Question

    What's your favorite original Shardholder?

    Brandon Sanderson

    I don't know... The tricky thing is that I'm going to have to write them as their personalities because right now they are just concepts. I'm very fond of Bavadin but I can't say.

    So, I just got out of the midnight release event, and I asked Brandon what the intent of Bavadin's shard is. After conversing with Isaac, he was willing to release it.

    Brandon Sanderson

    Bavadin's Intent is Autonomy.

    PrncRny

    Did Hoid have anything to do with Bavadin showing up on Sel?

    Brandon Sanderson

    RAFO. (Though interestingly, he asked me why I asked this question. I said I got it off a question list here and he stated that people had been trying to get him to say something on the subject for a while. Trying to pry information from him. Hence the RAFO.)

    There are some who are - um, more li - more willing to go along with it than others, yes.

    Borderlands SF-AU Tour (Paraphrased)

    Question

    How do we pronounce Bavadin? Have we see his/her influence on other worlds till now – like Austre in Nalthis or other religions which Sazed studied on Scadrial for example.

    Brandon Sanderson

    ba-va-din (ba as in batman, va as in want, din as in dinner). Yes you have seen her influence in other worlds other than Taldain. He wouldn't confirm if it is Nalthis or Scadrial or any other planet.
