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 977 Views
I've been thinking the same for years - 12/09/2009 11:25:02 PM 1099 Views

Fact is, the bwb is untrustworthy - 13/09/2009 05:54:28 PM 1029 Views
We must either use all the quotes from the BWB or none of them - 13/09/2009 06:07:46 PM 1064 Views
Or... - 13/09/2009 08:41:23 PM 1004 Views
Re: Or... - 14/09/2009 04:46:52 AM 983 Views
But, RJ himself said that the BWB was written from the standpoint of a scholar - 14/09/2009 04:42:59 PM 1052 Views
Re: Not Aginor - 13/09/2009 08:17:28 PM 974 Views
It all depends on how you define "powerful" - 14/09/2009 02:30:31 AM 1084 Views
I agree 101%. *NM* - 14/09/2009 03:49:51 AM 537 Views
I think power is much more than raw strength - 14/09/2009 05:00:10 AM 991 Views
I agree for the most part, but disagree on one thing. - 14/09/2009 07:52:10 PM 1158 Views

the other reason - 13/09/2009 03:24:24 PM 935 Views
So is graendal similar to lanfear then? - 13/09/2009 05:41:42 PM 948 Views
Graendal could fight Lanfear and win - 13/09/2009 06:01:57 PM 1515 Views

Re: Graendal herself says... - 14/09/2009 04:48:37 AM 1027 Views
Doesn't Graendal have an Angreal now? - 17/09/2009 03:29:10 AM 1058 Views
Re: Graendal herself says... - 15/09/2009 05:36:53 PM 908 Views
Lanfear was more powerful than Graendal, but Cyndane has less power - 13/09/2009 10:19:35 PM 965 Views
Re: So is graendal similar to lanfear then? - 13/09/2009 06:05:11 PM 1134 Views
I agree with this - 13/09/2009 06:15:24 PM 1118 Views
Compulsion=any other deadly weave. Doesn't really change matters - 13/09/2009 10:23:40 PM 1003 Views
Excellent point *NM* - 13/09/2009 10:35:08 PM 549 Views
But it did give her an edge, and against two forsaken. *NM* - 13/09/2009 11:12:09 PM 515 Views
Hm? When? *NM* - 14/09/2009 09:04:10 PM 455 Views
tPoD, when she compelled Cyndane and Moghedien. *NM* - 14/09/2009 10:19:23 PM 494 Views
Not at all - 14/09/2009 04:51:48 AM 1048 Views
Using Compulsion on someone doesn't seem mechanically different - 14/09/2009 09:03:41 PM 897 Views
I'm not so sure about that - 14/09/2009 09:36:45 PM 979 Views
Totally agree - 14/09/2009 10:26:07 PM 829 Views
I don't agree. - 15/09/2009 04:33:04 PM 1113 Views
Re: So is graendal similar to lanfear then? - 14/09/2009 04:34:24 PM 932 Views
But Graendal confronted her... twice! *NM* - 13/09/2009 07:48:29 PM 466 Views
Apparently only the third time counts *NM* - 13/09/2009 08:00:37 PM 514 Views
Really? - 13/09/2009 08:36:33 PM 976 Views
No falsely... - 13/09/2009 11:25:40 PM 1192 Views
That's pretty much my opinion in a nutshell - 14/09/2009 04:56:15 AM 1150 Views
And, of course, the male and female OP strength ranks might not even correlate that much - 14/09/2009 04:41:58 PM 914 Views
They correlate on some critical points - 14/09/2009 06:57:43 PM 1113 Views
That's not exactly what I'm referring to. - 15/09/2009 04:36:29 PM 871 Views
But then we are discussing the same thing - 15/09/2009 06:59:04 PM 1002 Views
I think, outside of semantics, our main disagreement doesn't lie amid the higher tiers - 16/09/2009 03:53:09 PM 874 Views
Probably - 16/09/2009 06:31:27 PM 1021 Views

Re: Ahh the old debate... - 17/09/2009 05:26:52 AM 913 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 1010 Views
I do think Ishamel is special - 14/09/2009 07:04:03 PM 1082 Views
He's special the same way any individual is special. - 14/09/2009 11:36:42 PM 1038 Views

The more interesting question is... - 14/09/2009 06:34:11 PM 902 Views
Hmmm - 14/09/2009 07:04:34 PM 992 Views
I think we'll see Graendal vs. Aran'gar. - 14/09/2009 07:31:16 PM 1025 Views
Ah yes, that makes sense, and would be great! *NM* - 14/09/2009 07:40:29 PM 853 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 901 Views
They do imply that Graendal is a lot more dangerous than she looks - 14/09/2009 09:08:43 PM 930 Views
I've never underestimated Graendal - 14/09/2009 09:42:49 PM 980 Views
Yeah... her frivolity was always a red flag for me too. - 14/09/2009 10:18:40 PM 1018 Views
To me, she is the most lethal. - 15/09/2009 05:18:10 PM 767 Views
Yup... - 15/09/2009 06:39:20 PM 819 Views
I still like Lanfear more - 15/09/2009 06:51:03 PM 910 Views
Bah! She's an idiot! - 15/09/2009 07:06:06 PM 922 Views
only in love *NM* - 15/09/2009 07:23:29 PM 878 Views
Graendal did not beat me and Moghedien - 15/09/2009 05:59:39 PM 1013 Views
Agreed - 15/09/2009 06:36:48 PM 900 Views
Ummm... how do we know? - 15/09/2009 06:40:57 PM 1036 Views
