Graendal could fight Lanfear and win Sidious Send a noteboard - 13/09/2009 06:01:57 PM
Of course the answer is no. There is a huge gap in power between them. Graendal would never confront lanfear face to face. But sammael and even rahvin would. Clearly there is a bigger margin between the top 6 than suggested in this post.


There is no huge gap between them - there are two defined levels. We have no idea how large this gap is, but it is almost certainly not large, because Graendal is close to maximum strength from her own account.

I don't know how you can say that Graendal would never fight Lanfear. Rahvin clearly thought that she was on the verge of attacking Lanfear in FoH, and he prepared to Travel. She also attacked Cyndane later in the series. Graendal has also said that she should kill Sammael, but decides against it because she's not holding saidar. We heard several instances where the six have threatened to kill one another - Ishamael remains almost the only exception, and may be a true level higher than the others.

Graendal can and will fight Rand - I'm quite sure of it. Semirhage was not against it, and I think Graendal is similar.

Fact is, the bwb is untrustworthy Shannow - 13/09/2009 05:54:28 PM 678 Views
We must either use all the quotes from the BWB or none of them Sidious - 13/09/2009 06:07:46 PM 718 Views
Or... Shannow - 13/09/2009 08:41:23 PM 659 Views

It all depends on how you define "powerful" Lanfear - 14/09/2009 02:30:31 AM 776 Views
I agree 101%. *NM* Yvves - 14/09/2009 03:49:51 AM 400 Views
I think power is much more than raw strength Sidious - 14/09/2009 05:00:10 AM 642 Views
I agree for the most part, but disagree on one thing. Lanfear - 14/09/2009 07:52:10 PM 751 Views

Excellent point *NM* Shannow - 13/09/2009 10:35:08 PM 409 Views
But it did give her an edge, and against two forsaken. *NM* fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 11:12:09 PM 378 Views
Hm? When? *NM* beetnemesis - 14/09/2009 09:04:10 PM 306 Views
tPoD, when she compelled Cyndane and Moghedien. *NM* fionwe1987 - 14/09/2009 10:19:23 PM 362 Views

But Graendal confronted her... twice! *NM* fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 07:48:29 PM 339 Views
Apparently only the third time counts *NM* Sidious - 13/09/2009 08:00:37 PM 366 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 387 Views
Really? Shannow - 13/09/2009 08:36:33 PM 626 Views

That's pretty much my opinion in a nutshell Sidious - 14/09/2009 04:56:15 AM 779 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 597 Views
They correlate on some critical points Sidious - 14/09/2009 06:57:43 PM 679 Views
That's not exactly what I'm referring to. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/09/2009 04:36:29 PM 541 Views
But then we are discussing the same thing Sidious - 15/09/2009 06:59:04 PM 681 Views
I think, outside of semantics, our main disagreement doesn't lie amid the higher tiers RugbyPlayingAshaman - 16/09/2009 03:53:09 PM 557 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 635 Views
