*Written:* Is Iyatil wandering around the cosmere (Roshar) with a heating medallion? She's a Southern Scadrian, so she needs one of those so she won't freeze to death in normal temperatures.
Brandon Sanderson
RAFO on that, but it's a question you should be asking.
*Writes:* RAFO

Questioner
The Ghostblood that's from the southern part of Scadrial. Does that mean she can use the [Allomantic] metals?
Brandon Sanderson
She was not born there. Iyatil is from somewhere else... She has a.. Scadrian heritage. Whether she's an Allomancer or not, I will RAFO. It is possible that someone with her lineage could.
Questioner
So she doesn't have to be born on--
Brandon Sanderson
No.

Arthur Dent (paraphrased)
Is [Mraize] a worldhopper?
Brandon Sanderson (paraphrased)
Yes, he's been to a few planets, highly supervised by his babsk.
Arthur Dent (paraphrased)
So what planet is she from?
Brandon Sanderson (paraphrased)
Well, that's kind of a hard thing to say. She has 3 planets she's "from". For example, she's living now on Roshar, but then she's from a different planet, but that's not a planet that her people are from.
Arthur Dent (paraphrased)
So there was a mass exodus to that planet?
Brandon Sanderson (paraphrased)
Not exactly. If you were to find a Japanese American, where would they say that they are from? Her people did not have a mass exodus.
Arthur Dent (paraphrased)
Have we seen mass exoduses before?
Brandon Sanderson (paraphrased)
Yes, there are some in the cosmere. There's a mass exodus that is mentioned in one of the interludes in [Words of Radiance].

Is Iyatil from Scadrial?
