    Brandon Sanderson’s cosmere. Kinda even chances between being instantly killed, enslaved, selling my soul to make a living or being stuck in the same office job I already have, but this time I’m Magneto.

      Of all the worlds we’ve seen, when and where would you prefer to be put, assuming you have the same likelihood as a random person to have access to the magic system)?

      I would probably want to be put on either Sel (specifically the area with soul stamps from the emperor’s soul, since that’s the only magic I can think of that everyone can use) or the world from Yumi and the nightmare painter (since that’s just a relatively normal near-modern city).

        That’s a tough question. Nalthis would be cool - technically, anyone there can Awaken as well, as long as you accumulate enough Breaths, which also give you cool passive bonuses. But also I want to see magic powered spaceships, and we don’t have enough books set in late eras yet.

      Good news! You appear as adult Feruchemist with full metalminds. Bad news, you’ve just been kidnapped by a bunch of Steel Inquisitors.

        With full steel and iron, and knowledge of the lynchpin spike, you might be able to take them all out before running out, depending on how much steel you have.
