Re: So is graendal similar to lanfear then? RugbyPlayingAshaman Send a noteboard - 14/09/2009 04:34:24 PM
One last thing RJ has said that the forsaken lie even to themselves hence Rahvin's belief that he could take Lanfear. Its probably a case that the forsaken who were always at the top of the pile are a lot more accurate in judging their abilities and that of their enemies hence they don't get carried away with overconfidence.


I rather agree with this, especially since, despite Aginor's teachings and Rahvin's thought that he could overwhelm Lanfear, neither of tried anything of the sort. The only one who did was Sammael, not as strong as the most powerful of the males, but who was prepared to take advantage of an opening, in his case an argument between Graendal and Lanfear, to wipe out both opponents - if he had not been restrained in producing a surprise attack, he might have wiped out two very powerful opponents.

Fact is, the bwb is untrustworthy Shannow - 13/09/2009 05:54:28 PM 865 Views
We must either use all the quotes from the BWB or none of them Sidious - 13/09/2009 06:07:46 PM 908 Views
Or... Shannow - 13/09/2009 08:41:23 PM 853 Views

It all depends on how you define "powerful" Lanfear - 14/09/2009 02:30:31 AM 932 Views
I agree 101%. *NM* Yvves - 14/09/2009 03:49:51 AM 472 Views
I think power is much more than raw strength Sidious - 14/09/2009 05:00:10 AM 817 Views
I agree for the most part, but disagree on one thing. Lanfear - 14/09/2009 07:52:10 PM 944 Views

Excellent point *NM* Shannow - 13/09/2009 10:35:08 PM 480 Views
But it did give her an edge, and against two forsaken. *NM* fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 11:12:09 PM 453 Views
Hm? When? *NM* beetnemesis - 14/09/2009 09:04:10 PM 380 Views
tPoD, when she compelled Cyndane and Moghedien. *NM* fionwe1987 - 14/09/2009 10:19:23 PM 430 Views

I'm not so sure about that Sidious - 14/09/2009 09:36:45 PM 832 Views

But Graendal confronted her... twice! *NM* fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 07:48:29 PM 404 Views
Apparently only the third time counts *NM* Sidious - 13/09/2009 08:00:37 PM 445 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 465 Views
Really? Shannow - 13/09/2009 08:36:33 PM 795 Views
No falsely... fionwe1987 - 13/09/2009 11:25:40 PM 1012 Views
That's pretty much my opinion in a nutshell Sidious - 14/09/2009 04:56:15 AM 957 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 760 Views
They correlate on some critical points Sidious - 14/09/2009 06:57:43 PM 914 Views
That's not exactly what I'm referring to. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/09/2009 04:36:29 PM 709 Views
But then we are discussing the same thing Sidious - 15/09/2009 06:59:04 PM 857 Views
I think, outside of semantics, our main disagreement doesn't lie amid the higher tiers RugbyPlayingAshaman - 16/09/2009 03:53:09 PM 726 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 815 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 751 Views
