Warning: you may or may not get alcohol poisoning/die if you play this with alcohol, depending on how rigidly you stick to these rules and how much of the Cosmere you read/listen to. if you don’t drink alcohol and/or don’t want to risk alcohol poisoning while playing this, you can substitute with sleep deprivation and any drinkable substance. sleep deprivation provides a similar-ish mindset to that of being drunk, and the drinkable substance is for the drinking part. you can also use small snacks. best to play this only if you’ve read the entire Cosmere to avoid spoilers.

REMEMBER TO STOP DRINKING IF:

you see that the eyes of the shades around you are turning green or red

your friend is taking you to see the leader of a faction that attempted to kill the person you were hired to protect

you need to finish an important proposal for your appointed parliament

you’ve had one cup of blue wine, if you (or your parents) follow the Codes. however, you may keep to the orange

you see your own dead body at any place around you

an old friend of your spouse’s offers you drugged alcohol as a means to be removed from your prison (burning duralumin and pewter WILL NOT suffice as an antidote!)

you are faking a religious fast to fool the ruler of Teod into thinking you can heal Elantrians

you must fight someone who has claimed you have betrayed the Diem

you haven’t stored enough health in your goldmind to heal you from your level of alcohol consumption

you can’t understand what you’re reading/listening to

always drink responsibly, and don’t drink/be sleep deprived and drive. with that in mind: 

Take a sip every time:

Kaladin thinks about someone we haven’t met in flashbacks yet

Dockson rolls his eyes

someone’s hair changes colors

Sixth sees his own dead body somewhere

someone new arrives in Elantris

Elend says “Now, see–”

someone reminds Kenton of his own inadequacies 

someone makes an incorrect assumption about Silence/what Silence is doing

Hoid shows up in person

Marasi or Shallan blush

Take a shot every time:

you read/hear the phrase “I am a stick”, in that order

Szeth kills someone important to a government system

the number sixteen is mentioned

someone calls Marsh “Ironeyes”

Finish your drink every time:

someone is implied to be summoning the Dor in an unexplained and cryptic way

Nazh shows up in person

a character Ascends

Vin kills one of Elend’s relatives

you feel an incredible sense of secondhand embarrassment because of a character’s actions

someone’s eyes change colors

a character that is confirmed to be LGBT+ is introduced by name

Adonalsium is name-dropped

a character is revealed to be a kandra 

someone casually mentions the cosmere (as in the colloquial term for the universe)

someone who was thought to be dead/died turns out to be not dead (anymore, in some cases)

you finish a book
