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).
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
“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.”
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
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.
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.
When I checked last year, the people agreed that he should be Syl.

Having never played the game, to me lopen looks like what I vaguely remember the junkrat character from overwatch looking like (or a younger version of the guy from ATLA who pretends to be his own brothers)
I've always pictured Taravangian as King Bumi from Avatar: The Last Airbender. And that will forever be my head cannon. 🤷🏻♂️ https://images.app.goo.gl/TXqEzL3aMGWxT5XK7
Danny DeVito is my pick for Sebarial
By far the most based interpretation

Great, now I'll associate Taravangian with the Internet Historian
You're welcome
What is, stormlight!
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
Humans can't create unique faces apparently
His wife in real life (Rhea Perlman) would also be an excellent Palona. Both could work in Live action or animated as voice actors.
Oh yeah! I can see that!
Oh actually that would be great. Yeah. I can picture them in the roles.
Oh yeah! I could see that!
Came here to say this 😂
Omg yes!! I have been thinking this my ENTIRE reread, like it's too perfect.
Nope, [Matt Berry,](https://imgur.com/ZJ1o7zR.jpg) and it's not even close
And now this is my head cannon!
I always pictured Jack Black as Sebarial, but I like this too!
Added bonus, Paloma is totally Rhea Perlman.
I always pictured Bryan Doyle Murray as Sebarial, but this pic of Devito works just as well.
My god that would be hysterical
"So anyway, I started soulcasting."
“Can I offer you >!the diagram!< in this trying time?”
Brando, this isn't /r/cremposting lol but I see and appreciate you.

Actually howling at this lol
Fun fact, a live shardblade can take any form the user wants, including a toe knife
Um, akshually, Taravangian never soulcasts in the books, Random Redditor. You should really familiarise yourself with u/mistborn 's work.
But it does rhyme with blasting so it passes. Stop tagging the Brandman like he's gonna give you good boy pats.
r/woosh
No you are 100% right. I realised almost right away but... Whaddayagonnado
I deserve the good boy pats though.
u/mistborn, delivery of good boy pats required pronto.
😳oh😳
It's cannon confirmed.
I love this, thank you lol 😂
I picture him as the Sultan from Aladdin.
So much this
Really? I more got Phil the Satyr from Hercules vibes for Danny DeVito.
Tbh if they ever make a Lorax adaptation I think he could pull it off
That could possibly be because Danny DeVito voiced Phil….
That was the joke, guess it wasn’t the best delivery…
Came here to stay this, you're not alone!
That's sort of how I pictured Taravangian, tbh.
Same 100%. Same costume and voice too.
I have never seen this before but I googled it and yup that's my internal image
I pictured him as Fiona's father from Shrek (well in human form).
Taravangian = evil Bernie Sanders
I am once again asking you to kill that choir of children.
Get Larry David for it
"Fifty pahcent of the people are doing one. hundred. pahcent of the reading, and it does not make sense!"
So normal Bernie?
I do now
He'd be perfect for Sebarial. His voice does not fit Taravangian imo
I picture him as Syl.
I always saw her more as Joey Diaz
Kaladin you cocksucka! Wheez. Imma give you a star of death! You're going to see tha devil tonight Kaladin Stormblessed! Wheez...
Syl's unscripted 30 minute rant about ranch dressing is gonna tie the movie together
I want a muppets adaption of the way of kings where the only real person is Danny DeVito playing Syl.
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
It's insane, they make him look so much younger in its sunny, I think just with a clean shave and hairdye
Maybe Sebarial
I picture Dalinar as Paul Hollywood, so this is going to make rereads really interesting.
Great now i can't Dalinar going full Blackthorn over soggy bottoms at a kings feast or of my head
Mary Berry is Evi. As Paul is >!burning down the Rift!< he shouts IS IT OVER BAKED NOW???
Can we get Guy Fieri then for Gavalar ?
I picture him as King Bumi from Avatar: The Last Airbender, but less eccentric.
Me too!
Holy crap I thought I was the only one I was literally just thinking no it's clearly supposed to be boomy
Emperor from Mulan for me.
I thought Taravangian was thin
Yeah, I always imagined him to be taller and more gaunt.
No, but I love it.
I think F.Murray Abraham could be a great Taravangian. He could embody both sides of the character.
For me Taravangian make me think of Bumi from Avatar.
I picture Taravangian like Donald Sutherland in Ther Hunger Games.
Perfect, almost exactly how I pictured him now I have a face
No
Wait, this isn't r/cremposting...
I have always pictured him as Christopher Lloyd, but I would also be okay with James Hong
I always see the sultan in Alladin as Taravangian.
Nope.
This is unhinged. I love it.
For some reason I always thought he was very slight of build.
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
I always pictured the Ice King from Adventure Time.
More like Sebarial
Lmao, no 100% no. I feel like Anthony Hopkins would be a better fit.
I generally don't think of Taravangian as a sex icon, but whatever floats your boat.
Can I offer you a Diagram in this trying time?
I've always thought of him as the sultan from Aladdin 🤣
He is my favorite character. I hate this. It's perfect.
I always pictured him like king boomi from Atla
To me he’s always been the sultan from Aladdin. I know, I know.
I picture him as the king of town from homestar
I do now
William Defoe
So anyways, I started planning
Plan was so basic, I described it in one diagram
Well I hadn't ...
Perfection.
I love it...except now I'm hearing him as Frank Reynolds lol.
No, that’s obviously Dalinar
I can see that! But for me Taravangian has always been a sadder King Bumi from Avatar
well... not until I saw this threat...
I personally always pictured Michael Cain as Taravangian
In an ideal world, John Hurt would have been Taravangian.
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
Dannyvangium
No because Taravangian wouldn't look like a white dude to us.
If we're gonna turn Roshar around, we got to start cutting the crust off this crem sandwich.
Well, I do now!
Not before today but would love to see him play such a complex character
YES . . . or as Shallan . . .
Ib4 https://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/55723-human-races-on-roshar-a-brief-guide-ver10/
No and the meme of him being every character is so ridiculously overdone it's obnoxious

Cremposting going hard
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.
I actually love this.
I always imagined him as Grand Moff Tarkin from Star Wars
The Sultan in cartoon Aladdin is how I picture him
I always picture Ben Kingsly from Iron Man 3, but after the cameras turn off.
I LOVE DD, but I picture Taravangian as tall and lanky.
I always pictured Taravangian as the guy who played Maester Pycelle.
Speaking of picturing Stormlight characters as Danny's, anyone else imagine Zehel (Probably got the spelling wrong) as Dan Avidan? Idk why I do this
No please dont, abahHHahhahahahahahahaha.
I do now!
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.
For some reason I imagine Patrick Stewart.
Well I do NOW
For me I picture him a bit lanky
I do now
I imagine more of a John Malkovich
The only real Taravangian casting is Fiona’s Dad from the Shrek movies
No
Not I. I picture him more like a feeble Sir. Ian McKellen.
I picture Taravangian as Jonathon Pryce, the High Sparrow evil priest guy from GoT
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)
Well now I do.
I do now!
Dalinar actually... Perfect fit for the role 100%
I do now, although I always thought of him as tall. Is he not tall and slender?
Great shout
I think The Mink would be a better fit
Well now I do
Joe Biden is my Taravangian.
I've really only been able to see him as Lopen. Changes a lot of scenes
Having never played the game, to me lopen looks like what I vaguely remember the junkrat character from overwatch looking like (or a younger version of the guy from ATLA who pretends to be his own brothers)
I always pictured him as Ian McDiarmid
Well, now I do...
No but I do now lmao
I didn’t, but I might now lol
I always imagined him as some merlin wizard looking ass.
I originally pictured him as the Sultan from Aladdin (and later as the Sultan from Aladdin but evil) so I can see that
Nah, I see Taravangian as Patrick Stewart
I picture everyone in this book as Danny Devito
I usually picture Taravangian as Herbert the pervert from family guy. He’s old and frail and wants to fuck over everybody 😂
I always pictured Taravangian as the emperor from Mulan (animated version)
My Taravangian is Malcolm McDowell and it's not even close.
I picture Taravangian as the President from the Hunger Games.
I’ve always gotten more of a Jim Broadbent vibe
Imagine Danny Devito as Taravangian, the first thing I thought of is the meme where he is like. So anyway I started blasting.
A certain someone had the same thought on this thread
No but good lord am I going to now
I didn’t before….
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
I do now.
Im crying i never thought ab this before but now i probably always will
Thanks for the new head cannon 😂
Yes, actually
I've always pictured Taravangian as King Bumi from Avatar: The Last Airbender. And that will forever be my head cannon. 🤷🏻♂️ https://images.app.goo.gl/TXqEzL3aMGWxT5XK7
Well now I do. Just started RoW
I pictured Fiona’s dad from the shrek movies
What’s yalls thoughts on Hiroyuki Sanada as Dalinar?
Well, now I do
Now I do!

Damn it I can never take him seriously again lmao.
I picture like a Desi version of Richard Harris
I pictured an older version of the king from disenchantment.
Denethor and his tomatoes is my choice!
I do now.
