A BIG theory: Wolf vs. Hawk
This is the post I first had in mind when I started this blog. However, it took some leading up to. It requires explaining why I think the Death card from the Commonwealth Pairs deck is Cinder’s “sign.” (See the series of posts about Chandrian signs.) And it requires one other theory posted about previously on this blog (more on that below). (more…)
True Dungeon in Temerant- Dancing Among Stones
This is the second of two posts about interesting KKC facts found in the True Dungeon 2017 modules for the Kingkiller-themed adventures. (Post 1 is here, and contains more background on the context of these adventures.) (more…)
True Dungeon in the Fae- The Moongate Maze
I posted about my experience in the Kingkiller-themed True Dungeon game at Gen Con, but it was all based on memory. I have now received my module books from True Dungeon themselves.
How Many Chandrian Are There?
So the namesake of this website provides the simple answer to this question: Chaen-dian means “seven of them.” But seven of who? Is Haliax one of the seven or does he make eight? Are they all still alive, or have any been killed over time by the Amyr, the Singers, or the Sidhe? (more…)
Signs- Thrall of Iron- Possibility 2
So, this is the fourth post in a sequence that started with analyzing every Rothfuss-blessed mention of the Chandrian’s signs. In the original post, I deemed three sources of information “reliable” within the narrative:
- Kvothe’s firsthand encounter
- The Trebon pot (although I did posit that not every piece of imagery was a on it was a “sign”)
- The Adem’s rhyme from Wise Man’s Fear
However, reliable does not mean perfect. (more…)
Chandrian Signs- Thrall of Iron, Possibility 1
Now things start to get really fun! So, in my last post, we left off with this grid as a potential mapping between the Chandrian and their signs
So if we pare this down, it really leaves matching up the following as the logic problem: (more…)
Analysis of Signs Including Pairs Calamities
So, in my last post I inventoried the Chandrian’s signs as mentioned in the books.
Now let’s look at the Calamities cards from Pairs. (more…)
Every Mention of the Chandrian’s Signs
As input into a future post, here is a Tally of the different signs (or possible signs), however offhand or silly, associated with the Chandrian.
(Because remember… if you look at enough grandchildren, you can determine the eye color of the grandmother.)
Hints in the Pairs Noble Card
I was re-reading the Cthaeh scene yesterday and musing on the idea someone once posted (I think it was in the Kingkiller facebook group) that the red and gold butterflies represented the Calenthis line. Then I also considered some recent art examination I’d been doing.
As Pat would say, “click to embiggen”
Kingkiller Themed True Dungeon Experience
I braved True Dungeon at Gen Con because it was Kingkiller themed this year, and Patrick Rothfuss was involved. You can read the high level description of the two scenarios here:

This is an account I wrote down immediately after going through the scenarios:
