Shardcast: The Brandon Sanderson Podcast
Ox's Strange Powers and the Mechanics of Surgebinding
The speakers delve into the mechanics of Ox's powers, specifically his ability to shape-shift into a blade using only his cognitive part. They debate whether it is a choice or a limitation of his powers, and discuss the complexity of using up body energy versus mental energy. The conversation then shifts to the mechanics of surgebinding, questioning the idea that simply consuming a spren like Ox will grant the power of gravitation, and speculating on the connection between Ox and the Nahel bond.
