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?

Of course... - 13/09/2009 08:36:39 AM 1016 Views
I've been thinking the same for years - 12/09/2009 11:25:02 PM 1133 Views

Fact is, the bwb is untrustworthy - 13/09/2009 05:54:28 PM 1069 Views
We must either use all the quotes from the BWB or none of them - 13/09/2009 06:07:46 PM 1115 Views
Or... - 13/09/2009 08:41:23 PM 1051 Views
Re: Or... - 14/09/2009 04:46:52 AM 1044 Views
But, RJ himself said that the BWB was written from the standpoint of a scholar - 14/09/2009 04:42:59 PM 1096 Views
Re: Not Aginor - 13/09/2009 08:17:28 PM 1030 Views
It all depends on how you define "powerful" - 14/09/2009 02:30:31 AM 1124 Views
I agree 101%. *NM* - 14/09/2009 03:49:51 AM 560 Views
I think power is much more than raw strength - 14/09/2009 05:00:10 AM 1045 Views
I agree for the most part, but disagree on one thing. - 14/09/2009 07:52:10 PM 1229 Views

So is graendal similar to lanfear then? - 13/09/2009 05:41:42 PM 988 Views
Graendal could fight Lanfear and win - 13/09/2009 06:01:57 PM 1568 Views

Re: Graendal herself says... - 14/09/2009 04:48:37 AM 1088 Views
Doesn't Graendal have an Angreal now? - 17/09/2009 03:29:10 AM 1112 Views
Re: Graendal herself says... - 15/09/2009 05:36:53 PM 948 Views
Lanfear was more powerful than Graendal, but Cyndane has less power - 13/09/2009 10:19:35 PM 1024 Views
Re: So is graendal similar to lanfear then? - 13/09/2009 06:05:11 PM 1195 Views
I agree with this - 13/09/2009 06:15:24 PM 1166 Views
Compulsion=any other deadly weave. Doesn't really change matters - 13/09/2009 10:23:40 PM 1055 Views
Excellent point *NM* - 13/09/2009 10:35:08 PM 576 Views
But it did give her an edge, and against two forsaken. *NM* - 13/09/2009 11:12:09 PM 535 Views
Hm? When? *NM* - 14/09/2009 09:04:10 PM 483 Views
tPoD, when she compelled Cyndane and Moghedien. *NM* - 14/09/2009 10:19:23 PM 524 Views
Not at all - 14/09/2009 04:51:48 AM 1104 Views
Using Compulsion on someone doesn't seem mechanically different - 14/09/2009 09:03:41 PM 949 Views
I'm not so sure about that - 14/09/2009 09:36:45 PM 1047 Views
Totally agree - 14/09/2009 10:26:07 PM 881 Views
I don't agree. - 15/09/2009 04:33:04 PM 1166 Views
Re: So is graendal similar to lanfear then? - 14/09/2009 04:34:24 PM 984 Views
But Graendal confronted her... twice! *NM* - 13/09/2009 07:48:29 PM 493 Views
Apparently only the third time counts *NM* - 13/09/2009 08:00:37 PM 538 Views
Really? - 13/09/2009 08:36:33 PM 1028 Views
No falsely... - 13/09/2009 11:25:40 PM 1253 Views
That's pretty much my opinion in a nutshell - 14/09/2009 04:56:15 AM 1206 Views
And, of course, the male and female OP strength ranks might not even correlate that much - 14/09/2009 04:41:58 PM 963 Views
They correlate on some critical points - 14/09/2009 06:57:43 PM 1167 Views
That's not exactly what I'm referring to. - 15/09/2009 04:36:29 PM 925 Views
But then we are discussing the same thing - 15/09/2009 06:59:04 PM 1068 Views
I think, outside of semantics, our main disagreement doesn't lie amid the higher tiers - 16/09/2009 03:53:09 PM 933 Views
Probably - 16/09/2009 06:31:27 PM 1075 Views

Re: Ahh the old debate... - 17/09/2009 05:26:52 AM 958 Views
I only disagree on one point, I think they are all rather equal in potential, incl. Ishamael - 14/09/2009 04:28:12 PM 1070 Views
I do think Ishamel is special - 14/09/2009 07:04:03 PM 1135 Views
He's special the same way any individual is special. - 14/09/2009 11:36:42 PM 1096 Views

The more interesting question is... - 14/09/2009 06:34:11 PM 944 Views
Hmmm - 14/09/2009 07:04:34 PM 1040 Views
I think we'll see Graendal vs. Aran'gar. - 14/09/2009 07:31:16 PM 1073 Views
Ah yes, that makes sense, and would be great! *NM* - 14/09/2009 07:40:29 PM 911 Views
Yeah. Though I think its no competition. Graendal has got to be better than a walking tree! - 14/09/2009 07:50:09 PM 973 Views
They do imply that Graendal is a lot more dangerous than she looks - 14/09/2009 09:08:43 PM 990 Views
I've never underestimated Graendal - 14/09/2009 09:42:49 PM 1023 Views
Yeah... her frivolity was always a red flag for me too. - 14/09/2009 10:18:40 PM 1073 Views
To me, she is the most lethal. - 15/09/2009 05:18:10 PM 813 Views
Yup... - 15/09/2009 06:39:20 PM 866 Views
I still like Lanfear more - 15/09/2009 06:51:03 PM 956 Views
Bah! She's an idiot! - 15/09/2009 07:06:06 PM 971 Views
only in love *NM* - 15/09/2009 07:23:29 PM 931 Views
Graendal did not beat me and Moghedien - 15/09/2009 05:59:39 PM 1084 Views
Agreed - 15/09/2009 06:36:48 PM 938 Views
Ummm... how do we know? - 15/09/2009 06:40:57 PM 1075 Views
