Re: I have a few mundane my reasons as to why Moghedien probably wouldn't and couldn't do that. Datakim Send a noteboard - 26/05/2010 11:50:56 PM
1) She wouldn't ask for help, since she's already gotten burned once by appearing in front of Black Ajah Sisters in a weakened condition. If any of the Sisters recognized it and realized what the necklace was, she would be in a position similar to the one Egwene, Nynaeve and Elayne had her in, and even worse, under subordinates she had punished and subsequently lost the respect of.

2) She didn't know the technique needed to remove the collar. Nynaeve and Elayne figured this out through multiple attempts by trial and error. Once they figured out how, they used it to free Egwene. Egwene learned how to remove the collar using the Power afterwards, but it is a very specific set of movements needed to unclasp the collar. Even worse, the collar prevents you from making movements or using the Power in such a way that would destroy or remove it, so she would have found herself, if Skimming to a barely known place, unable to even attempt to save herself. She would then be at the mercy of anyone who found her in this weakened state, which would have been unthinkable for her.


Why would Moghedien have needed to use black sisters or random strangers? Could she not have tried summoning help from shadowspawn such as myrddraal? Myrddraal would likely be smart and dexterous enough to able to figure out a way to remove the collar and they would also have to obey Moghediens commands even while she was wearing the collar due to the DO's chosen mark that she wears.

If she could enter TAR she could drag an AS in with her, compell them and make them take it off darius_sedai - 27/05/2010 07:14:26 PM 872 Views

I think we are saying pretty much the same thing here darius_sedai - 27/05/2010 09:24:37 PM 830 Views
We are close to the same idea, but different in where we think her ability will stop. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 27/05/2010 09:37:28 PM 799 Views

But channelling is not a requirement to enter TAR BlackAdder - 27/05/2010 08:31:21 AM 741 Views
The a'dam affects things in Channelers other than the ability itself darius_sedai - 27/05/2010 01:58:34 PM 936 Views
I don't agree. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 27/05/2010 03:02:08 PM 797 Views

We may never know! RugbyPlayingAshaman - 27/05/2010 09:21:48 PM 817 Views
I would be very surprised if it came up in the books darius_sedai - 27/05/2010 09:25:29 PM 776 Views

So I think this disproves it newyorkersedai - 26/05/2010 08:49:55 PM 1037 Views
Is that really true? Sidious - 26/05/2010 08:53:45 PM 813 Views
Sid, I made some edits, but really nothing's certain. Look again, pls. *NM* newyorkersedai - 26/05/2010 08:55:30 PM 392 Views

I think the problem is that you can only channel Spirit through your T'A'R form RugbyPlayingAshaman - 27/05/2010 03:05:13 PM 723 Views
if you dream yourself into T'A'R then you're just a creation of your own mind Jim - 27/05/2010 12:02:38 AM 695 Views
aren't we all? *NM* newyorkersedai - 27/05/2010 12:04:08 AM 337 Views
if that was true you couldn't die in T'A'R Foxhead - 27/05/2010 12:08:10 AM 721 Views
Why not? krassos - 27/05/2010 03:41:10 PM 888 Views

I don't think anybody has said this before... Fanatic-Templar - 27/05/2010 04:01:28 AM 827 Views
Your real body can only channel Spirit. Gher - 27/05/2010 05:25:08 AM 841 Views
Yes, but you need real One Power to affect the real world. Fanatic-Templar - 27/05/2010 06:46:21 AM 799 Views
Yes, I agree with that, but I was mostly just replying to your question about sleep-channeling. Gher - 27/05/2010 06:56:18 AM 729 Views
