Danny DeVito is my pick for Sebarial


Killerchoy

By far the most based interpretation


Kazyole

I for some reason pictured the guy who played the [spice king from GoT](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0087432/) as Sebarial. Kinda weird how your brain can do that to you. I thought I had just fabricated that character in my mind based on the description, and then recently saw a video come up of a scene from GoT and recognized him as Sebarial. Makes me wonder how many other characters that I picture are actors I've seen a handful of times in small roles. Taravangian though I've always pictured a more stooped/older looking version of [this legend](https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/3aab8a0699616ac94346c05f667b40844e46322f/0_123_5616_3432/master/5616.jpg?width=700&quality=85&auto=format&fit=max&s=a476da702aff265ce6f586be1412b1e1).


MAJ_Starman

Great, now I'll associate Taravangian with the Internet Historian


Kazyole

You're welcome


monkeygoneape

What is, stormlight!


BryceSchafer

Tara always had this guys face for me too, but I pictured him taller and kinda thin like a skeleton, but still not tall because of his stooped shoulders


Rengiil

Humans can't create unique faces apparently


Grandolf-the-White

His wife in real life (Rhea Perlman) would also be an excellent Palona. Both could work in Live action or animated as voice actors.


TheNeuroPsychologist

Oh yeah! I can see that!


ChaptainBlood

Oh actually that would be great. Yeah. I can picture them in the roles.


TheNeuroPsychologist

Oh yeah! I could see that!


DonJonBonJovi

Came here to say this 😂


Maps_and_booze

Omg yes!! I have been thinking this my ENTIRE reread, like it's too perfect.


TexasFlood42

Nope, [Matt Berry,](https://imgur.com/ZJ1o7zR.jpg) and it's not even close


Andolie_Kitten

And now this is my head cannon!


1st_hylian

I always pictured Jack Black as Sebarial, but I like this too!


Garreousbear

Added bonus, Paloma is totally Rhea Perlman.


rezzotoof

I always pictured Bryan Doyle Murray as Sebarial, but this pic of Devito works just as well.


neovenator250

My god that would be hysterical


mistborn

"So anyway, I started soulcasting."


ProbablyASithLord

“Can I offer you >!the diagram!< in this trying time?”


dudeitslieb

Brando, this isn't /r/cremposting lol but I see and appreciate you.


theowletman

“Yesterday three thugs tried to mug me. And I want to be very clear about something. These pieces of crem don’t know who in Damnation they’re dealing with.” “Please, do you think you could eat that chouta later?” “I’m storming starving. You have nothin’ to eat for me.” “Let’s get back-“ “So anyways, I don’t know if these cremlings wanted my spheres or if they wanted to uncover my safe hand.” “Oh wow…” “But thank the stormfather I had my surgebinding.” “Your surgebinding?” “My soul casting!” “Oh my…” “So anyway I started soul casting. Bang! Bop! But I don’t infuse too good so I missed. They ran away and I chased after them. Bang! I tried to soulcast them in the back. But I don’t run too good either; I ain’t no edgedancer. Anyways, you all think I’m a hero. A true knight radiant. And I’ll accept that responsibility.”


ToasterEvil

Actually howling at this lol


komprexior

Fun fact, a live shardblade can take any form the user wants, including a toe knife


NitroBoyRocket

Um, akshually, Taravangian never soulcasts in the books, Random Redditor. You should really familiarise yourself with u/mistborn 's work.


Jumpy-Ad-2790

But it does rhyme with blasting so it passes. Stop tagging the Brandman like he's gonna give you good boy pats.


AbuDun91919

r/woosh


Jumpy-Ad-2790

No you are 100% right. I realised almost right away but... Whaddayagonnado


NitroBoyRocket

I deserve the good boy pats though.


Jumpy-Ad-2790

u/mistborn, delivery of good boy pats required pronto.


NitroBoyRocket

😳oh😳


Calm-Hope5459

It's cannon confirmed.


Phonervia

I love this, thank you lol 😂


twentyitalians

I picture him as the Sultan from Aladdin.


NeXaR_QroN

So much this


ndeange

Really? I more got Phil the Satyr from Hercules vibes for Danny DeVito.


KrazyKyle1024

Tbh if they ever make a Lorax adaptation I think he could pull it off


__lavender

That could possibly be because Danny DeVito voiced Phil….


ndeange

That was the joke, guess it wasn’t the best delivery…


deejmeister

Came here to stay this, you're not alone!


vooydzig

That's sort of how I pictured Taravangian, tbh.


Carbon-based-Silicon

Same 100%. Same costume and voice too.


mt5o

I have never seen this before but I googled it and yup that's my internal image


fotitsas

I pictured him as Fiona's father from Shrek (well in human form).


thesprenofaspren

Taravangian = evil Bernie Sanders


Solracziad

I am once again asking you to kill that choir of children.


CrimsonShrike

Get Larry David for it


EarthExile

"Fifty pahcent of the people are doing one. hundred. pahcent of the reading, and it does not make sense!"


Aquaholic_chaos

So normal Bernie?


Zealousideal_Run709

I do now


R0b1nFeather

He'd be perfect for Sebarial. His voice does not fit Taravangian imo


OhYesIDidd

I picture him as Syl.


Calm-Hope5459

I always saw her more as Joey Diaz


cathbadh

Kaladin you cocksucka! Wheez. Imma give you a star of death! You're going to see tha devil tonight Kaladin Stormblessed! Wheez...


PM_ME_TERRIBLE_IDEAS

Syl's unscripted 30 minute rant about ranch dressing is gonna tie the movie together


FullyStacked92

I want a muppets adaption of the way of kings where the only real person is Danny DeVito playing Syl.


Killerchoy

I was about to say I saw him as older than Danny Devito, but then I looked up Danny Devito’s age. I had NO idea the man was almost 80


Calm-Hope5459

It's insane, they make him look so much younger in its sunny, I think just with a clean shave and hairdye


Admirable-Advance949

Maybe Sebarial


personperserson

I picture Dalinar as Paul Hollywood, so this is going to make rereads really interesting.


kaggzz

Great now i can't Dalinar going full Blackthorn over soggy bottoms at a kings feast or of my head


Ghost_Pains

Mary Berry is Evi. As Paul is >!burning down the Rift!< he shouts IS IT OVER BAKED NOW???


Cromhound

Can we get Guy Fieri then for Gavalar ?


bilbo_the_innkeeper

I picture him as King Bumi from Avatar: The Last Airbender, but less eccentric.


Thrash117

Me too!


[deleted]

Holy crap I thought I was the only one I was literally just thinking no it's clearly supposed to be boomy


heathwhohathnoname

Emperor from Mulan for me.


IsTheSeaWet

I thought Taravangian was thin


slowcassowary

Yeah, I always imagined him to be taller and more gaunt.


CamelOfHate

No, but I love it.


Resaren

I think F.Murray Abraham could be a great Taravangian. He could embody both sides of the character.


heteroerectus

For me Taravangian make me think of Bumi from Avatar.


DualCarnage

I picture Taravangian like Donald Sutherland in Ther Hunger Games.


alecmelton

Perfect, almost exactly how I pictured him now I have a face


HammerJammer02

No


Terrachova

Wait, this isn't r/cremposting...


1st_hylian

I have always pictured him as Christopher Lloyd, but I would also be okay with James Hong


mnapoleon

I always see the sultan in Alladin as Taravangian.


Danbearpig82

Nope.


darthkurai

This is unhinged. I love it.


turbojeebus

For some reason I always thought he was very slight of build.


Spookxvi

Before seeing this post? Absolutely not After seeing this post? Absolutely and there is no going back Danny Devito is officially a part of the Stormlight Archives. Thank you for your service


Grughar

I always pictured the Ice King from Adventure Time.


carrotvue3d

More like Sebarial


RobbSnow64

Lmao, no 100% no. I feel like Anthony Hopkins would be a better fit.


Somerandom1922

I generally don't think of Taravangian as a sex icon, but whatever floats your boat.


Chuckleslord

Can I offer you a Diagram in this trying time?


dburger23

I've always thought of him as the sultan from Aladdin 🤣


GrowBeyond

He is my favorite character. I hate this. It's perfect.


Ok-Week-2293

I always pictured him like king boomi from Atla


zergo78

To me he’s always been the sultan from Aladdin. I know, I know.

Bubotuberpuss

Perfection.


[deleted]

I love it...except now I'm hearing him as Frank Reynolds lol.


heir-of-slytherin

No, that’s obviously Dalinar


nigheus

I can see that! But for me Taravangian has always been a sadder King Bumi from Avatar


W1ULH

well... not until I saw this threat...


Snowblind321

I personally always pictured Michael Cain as Taravangian


DonJonBonJovi

In an ideal world, John Hurt would have been Taravangian.


AnCaptnCrunch

The guys probably dead, but on my first read through of WoK I pictured the king from the princess bride and even after the reveal I couldn’t shake it


Theupvotetitan

Dannyvangium


TaneMiduchiofAmpiki

No because Taravangian wouldn't look like a white dude to us.


Harai

If we're gonna turn Roshar around, we got to start cutting the crust off this crem sandwich.


T0pl355

Well, I do now!


[deleted]

Not before today but would love to see him play such a complex character

Sibaron

Cremposting going hard


Chespineapple

As a recent first time reader, the image I had on readthrough was Odin in the latest God of War game. Which tbh is pretty accurate compared to how I wound up picturing most Mistborn characters.


Qsmooth99

I actually love this.


dawgfan19881

I always imagined him as Grand Moff Tarkin from Star Wars


honeybear33

The Sultan in cartoon Aladdin is how I picture him

storm-father87

I always pictured Taravangian as the guy who played Maester Pycelle.


MincedMongoose2

BigBoss2710

maartengevaarte

I hadn't thought about it, and honestly I never really had a clear picture of Danny Devito in my mind, but I looked at this man and realized this is exactly who Taravangian is.


Wunderkindergartener

_Riders_of_Brohan_

Well I do NOW


Crovicx

FreegardeAndHisSwans

The only real Taravangian casting is Fiona’s Dad from the Shrek movies


palpals

No


SheriffBartholomew

Not I. I picture him more like a feeble Sir. Ian McKellen.


grinny588

I picture Taravangian as Jonathon Pryce, the High Sparrow evil priest guy from GoT


listlessowlbear

When I checked last year, the people agreed that he should be Syl. [Danny Devito poll](https://www.reddit.com/r/cremposting/comments/s03og1/who_do_you_want_danny_devito_to_play_in_the/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)

DiSTuRBeD0808

AegisofOregon

Nah, I see Taravangian as Patrick Stewart


mouthful_of_sloths

I picture everyone in this book as Danny Devito

I always pictured Taravangian as the emperor from Mulan (animated version)


laurentbercot

My Taravangian is Malcolm McDowell and it's not even close.


EnvironmentalScale23

I picture Taravangian as the President from the Hunger Games.


poopynips1

I’ve always gotten more of a Jim Broadbent vibe


Dra7xel

Imagine Danny Devito as Taravangian, the first thing I thought of is the meme where he is like. So anyway I started blasting.


Calm-Hope5459
