Some thoughts about Semmy Lordling Send a noteboard - 12/09/2009 09:59:50 PM

Demandred, Lanfear, Semirhage, Graendal and Sammael could probably duel one another with unpredictable results, and the result would be 50-50 if they dueled a hundred times. It makes them inferior to Ishamael and Lews Therin, but not to each other.

I sincerely doubt that Semirhage is up to par with Sammael, Lanfear or Demandred when it comes to dueling, considering how badly she managed in Kod. She's certainly skilled in her area of expertise, but in a battle Demandred would overwhelm her before she could form a single one of her sophisticated torture weaves which she certainly would revert to using in a battle, same as Graendal would try to use Compulsion.

Also, Mesaana thinks she's as capable in the Power as Semmy, yet Mesaana is subservient-ish to Demandred. How then could Semmy and Demandred be equal in a OP duel?

I've been thinking the same for years Dragonsworn - 12/09/2009 11:25:02 PM 899 Views

Fact is, the bwb is untrustworthy Shannow - 13/09/2009 05:54:28 PM 821 Views
We must either use all the quotes from the BWB or none of them Sidious - 13/09/2009 06:07:46 PM 874 Views
Or... Shannow - 13/09/2009 08:41:23 PM 816 Views
Re: Or... Sidious - 14/09/2009 04:46:52 AM 782 Views
But, RJ himself said that the BWB was written from the standpoint of a scholar RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/09/2009 04:42:59 PM 807 Views

It all depends on how you define "powerful" Lanfear - 14/09/2009 02:30:31 AM 898 Views
I agree 101%. *NM* Yvves - 14/09/2009 03:49:51 AM 453 Views
I think power is much more than raw strength Sidious - 14/09/2009 05:00:10 AM 784 Views
I agree for the most part, but disagree on one thing. Lanfear - 14/09/2009 07:52:10 PM 907 Views

So is graendal similar to lanfear then? Shannow - 13/09/2009 05:41:42 PM 767 Views
Graendal could fight Lanfear and win Sidious - 13/09/2009 06:01:57 PM 1304 Views

Re: Graendal herself says... Sidious - 14/09/2009 04:48:37 AM 809 Views
Doesn't Graendal have an Angreal now? Rurouni_Kenshin - 17/09/2009 03:29:10 AM 825 Views
Re: Graendal herself says... Lanfear - 15/09/2009 05:36:53 PM 697 Views
Lanfear was more powerful than Graendal, but Cyndane has less power beetnemesis - 13/09/2009 10:19:35 PM 774 Views
Re: So is graendal similar to lanfear then? Watcher - 13/09/2009 06:05:11 PM 906 Views
I agree with this Sidious - 13/09/2009 06:15:24 PM 926 Views
Compulsion=any other deadly weave. Doesn't really change matters beetnemesis - 13/09/2009 10:23:40 PM 786 Views
Excellent point *NM* Shannow - 13/09/2009 10:35:08 PM 465 Views
But it did give her an edge, and against two forsaken. *NM* fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 11:12:09 PM 439 Views
Hm? When? *NM* beetnemesis - 14/09/2009 09:04:10 PM 363 Views
tPoD, when she compelled Cyndane and Moghedien. *NM* fionwe1987 - 14/09/2009 10:19:23 PM 417 Views
Not at all Sidious - 14/09/2009 04:51:48 AM 847 Views
Using Compulsion on someone doesn't seem mechanically different beetnemesis - 14/09/2009 09:03:41 PM 693 Views
I'm not so sure about that Sidious - 14/09/2009 09:36:45 PM 795 Views
Totally agree Shannow - 14/09/2009 10:26:07 PM 601 Views
I don't agree. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/09/2009 04:33:04 PM 910 Views
Re: So is graendal similar to lanfear then? RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/09/2009 04:34:24 PM 746 Views
But Graendal confronted her... twice! *NM* fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 07:48:29 PM 392 Views
Apparently only the third time counts *NM* Sidious - 13/09/2009 08:00:37 PM 426 Views
But the third time's supposed to be lucky. So that won't count either. *NM* fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 11:26:18 PM 449 Views
Really? Shannow - 13/09/2009 08:36:33 PM 756 Views
No falsely... fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 11:25:40 PM 982 Views
That's pretty much my opinion in a nutshell Sidious - 14/09/2009 04:56:15 AM 914 Views
And, of course, the male and female OP strength ranks might not even correlate that much RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/09/2009 04:41:58 PM 725 Views
They correlate on some critical points Sidious - 14/09/2009 06:57:43 PM 829 Views
That's not exactly what I'm referring to. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/09/2009 04:36:29 PM 674 Views
But then we are discussing the same thing Sidious - 15/09/2009 06:59:04 PM 816 Views
I think, outside of semantics, our main disagreement doesn't lie amid the higher tiers RugbyPlayingAshaman - 16/09/2009 03:53:09 PM 689 Views
Probably Sidious - 16/09/2009 06:31:27 PM 833 Views

Re: Ahh the old debate... Sidious - 17/09/2009 05:26:52 AM 719 Views
I only disagree on one point, I think they are all rather equal in potential, incl. Ishamael RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/09/2009 04:28:12 PM 777 Views
I do think Ishamel is special Sidious - 14/09/2009 07:04:03 PM 860 Views
He's special the same way any individual is special. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 14/09/2009 11:36:42 PM 819 Views

The more interesting question is... AgentOrange - 14/09/2009 06:34:11 PM 726 Views
Hmmm Sidious - 14/09/2009 07:04:34 PM 751 Views
I think we'll see Graendal vs. Aran'gar. fionwe1987 - 14/09/2009 07:31:16 PM 826 Views
Ah yes, that makes sense, and would be great! *NM* Sidious - 14/09/2009 07:40:29 PM 618 Views
Yeah. Though I think its no competition. Graendal has got to be better than a walking tree! fionwe1987 - 14/09/2009 07:50:09 PM 714 Views
They do imply that Graendal is a lot more dangerous than she looks beetnemesis - 14/09/2009 09:08:43 PM 744 Views
I've never underestimated Graendal Sidious - 14/09/2009 09:42:49 PM 792 Views
Yeah... her frivolity was always a red flag for me too. fionwe1987 - 14/09/2009 10:18:40 PM 772 Views
To me, she is the most lethal. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/09/2009 05:18:10 PM 598 Views
Yup... fionwe1987 - 15/09/2009 06:39:20 PM 644 Views
I still like Lanfear more Sidious - 15/09/2009 06:51:03 PM 733 Views
Bah! She's an idiot! fionwe1987 - 15/09/2009 07:06:06 PM 742 Views
only in love *NM* Sidious - 15/09/2009 07:23:29 PM 705 Views
Graendal did not beat me and Moghedien Lanfear - 15/09/2009 05:59:39 PM 820 Views
Agreed Sidious - 15/09/2009 06:36:48 PM 717 Views
Ummm... how do we know? fionwe1987 - 15/09/2009 06:40:57 PM 839 Views
Re: Ummm... how do we know? Sidious - 15/09/2009 06:56:21 PM 762 Views
