Re: TP + OR = Boom? or Melt? CatherineSedai Send a noteboard - 20/07/2010 01:33:20 AM
So what would happen if you used a TP weave of spirit to touch the oath rod. Would the fact thats its spirit mean that it would work despite being TP. Would it do nothing? Or would it somehow corrupt the OR and cause it to malfunction.


I would assume that, like all other ter'angreal, it was made to work with the One Power, and would not work with the True Power. (excluding Callandor?) I don't think it would corrupt the OR or make it malfunction, but like many things of the power we have seen misused, it might just melt.

As a hypothetical it is interesting, but if Mesaana had channeled the True Power into the OR instead of OP, the other sisters wouldn't have felt anything and that would have been suspicious enough. (As I read it, the original oath swearing when you gain the shawl was channeled by the Amyrlin. The re-swearing under Egwene's tenure was channeled by the individual swearing.)
I always say, if you must mount the gallows, give a jest to the crowd, a coin to the hangman, and make the drop with a smile on your lips. ~Birgitte

How did Mesaana beat the Oath Rod? CatherineSedai - 17/07/2010 10:26:42 AM 3777 Views
That isn't tricking the oath rod, the way I'm understanding his answer. That's tricking humans *NM* Deadsy - 17/07/2010 10:29:52 AM 443 Views
I agree with Deadsy... Etzel - 17/07/2010 11:32:09 AM 1037 Views

Another AS does the channeling according to NS darius_sedai - 17/07/2010 10:02:32 PM 987 Views
And the Shaido "Wise Ones" channeled for Galina. *NM* Gher - 18/07/2010 01:58:49 AM 530 Views
As mentioned above, your theory is not about defeating Oath Rod. Skeeve the Great - 17/07/2010 06:42:38 PM 967 Views
That's an interesting theory Gher - 18/07/2010 02:01:23 AM 956 Views

Perhaps she pressed, and held the on/off switch, so that the Oaths never triggered? *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 19/07/2010 09:50:13 PM 421 Views
Everything you said but this... CatherineSedai - 20/07/2010 01:25:34 AM 881 Views
Or she didn't swear on it, because she's a servant. The Angry Druid - 18/07/2010 11:05:08 PM 924 Views
but BS would not have told us to think about defeating the oath rod then.... mazza3 - 19/07/2010 04:10:56 PM 766 Views
I don't really see why this is such a big issue: The Angry Druid - 22/07/2010 03:34:46 AM 1045 Views

I doubt Mesaana stands high enough to have TP access right now. She's probably the lowest FS. *NM* Lord Haart - 20/07/2010 07:55:31 PM 416 Views

Yeah I realize what I presented was kinda the opposite of what I was going for. CatherineSedai - 20/07/2010 02:15:46 AM 842 Views
I just thought of the most obvious way around it. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 20/07/2010 06:17:34 PM 908 Views
I actually like this idea. Skeeve the Great - 20/07/2010 07:40:56 PM 809 Views

This makes me wonder what would happen to a woman in a Link darius_sedai - 20/07/2010 08:37:12 PM 820 Views
I bet it wouldn't work LoialT - 20/07/2010 08:52:00 PM 1266 Views
this is also possible darius_sedai - 20/07/2010 09:17:36 PM 850 Views
I don't think so Sidious - 20/07/2010 09:05:58 PM 825 Views

I think the OR is tied to a channelers connection to the OP and nothing else darius_sedai - 20/07/2010 09:22:51 PM 825 Views
