I'm fairly certain that the ability can't be sensed until they are very close to touching darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 21/07/2010 09:29:54 PM

We don't know that's how the binder works. It's most likely it doesn't work like that. There's a binder for channelers and a binder for non-channelers and personally I think it has to do with physical differences, namely that channelers have different brains, or at least, their minds become altered when they're teenagers and exposed to the Source for the first time.



What about the channelers that aren't exposed to the Source as teenagers (the ones that aren't sparkers)? Say, if Sharina (or any other pre-Novice) was brought in as soon as she was tested and it was confirmed that she could channel? Do you think the Oath Rod would work on them?

And obviously another Channeler would have to channel the Spirit "trigger".




Heh, and another that just occurred to me: can a channeler's ability be sensed when they are an infant? A child? Or does it have to wait for the teenage years?

Heck, I wonder if in the AoL it was a common to test fetuses, as part of all the prenatal checkups.


It's the reason Sul'dam seems strange to AS and the Kin. Reanne Corely (IIRC) made a comment about it along the lines ... I'd have to check for the quote.

As for the OR Binding them before they began channeling I'd say doubtful. They seem to be totally normal women until they touch the source (i.e. they don't Slow).

How did Mesaana beat the Oath Rod? CatherineSedai - 17/07/2010 10:26:42 AM 3806 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 452 Views
I agree with Deadsy... Etzel - 17/07/2010 11:32:09 AM 1055 Views

Another AS does the channeling according to NS darius_sedai - 17/07/2010 10:02:32 PM 1006 Views
And the Shaido "Wise Ones" channeled for Galina. *NM* Gher - 18/07/2010 01:58:49 AM 536 Views
As mentioned above, your theory is not about defeating Oath Rod. Skeeve the Great - 17/07/2010 06:42:38 PM 983 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 426 Views
Everything you said but this... CatherineSedai - 20/07/2010 01:25:34 AM 899 Views
Or she didn't swear on it, because she's a servant. The Angry Druid - 18/07/2010 11:05:08 PM 937 Views
but BS would not have told us to think about defeating the oath rod then.... mazza3 - 19/07/2010 04:10:56 PM 786 Views
I don't really see why this is such a big issue: The Angry Druid - 22/07/2010 03:34:46 AM 1072 Views

A true power invisible glove is better than a one power invisible glove. *NM* Logain - 20/07/2010 07:46:48 PM 447 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 423 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 855 Views
I just thought of the most obvious way around it. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 20/07/2010 06:17:34 PM 923 Views
I actually like this idea. Skeeve the Great - 20/07/2010 07:40:56 PM 828 Views

This makes me wonder what would happen to a woman in a Link darius_sedai - 20/07/2010 08:37:12 PM 839 Views
I bet it wouldn't work LoialT - 20/07/2010 08:52:00 PM 1282 Views
this is also possible darius_sedai - 20/07/2010 09:17:36 PM 866 Views
I don't think so Sidious - 20/07/2010 09:05:58 PM 852 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 842 Views
