[Can you write] something interesting about the Seventeeth Shard? ...Or how about this, a character that's in the Seventeenth Shard that we don't know about?

*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

Her heritage is Scadrian but she actually wasn't born on Scadrial. But yes and no in that way.

Questioner (paraphrased)
Is Iyatil from Scadrial?

Her heritage is from Scadrial, but she actually is from Silverlight. It's more recent than my heritage from Denmark.

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].
