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 - 13/09/2009 05:54:28 PM 942 Views
We must either use all the quotes from the BWB or none of them - 13/09/2009 06:07:46 PM 973 Views
Or... - 13/09/2009 08:41:23 PM 916 Views
Re: Or... - 14/09/2009 04:46:52 AM 887 Views
But, RJ himself said that the BWB was written from the standpoint of a scholar - 14/09/2009 04:42:59 PM 941 Views
Re: Not Aginor - 13/09/2009 08:17:28 PM 881 Views
It all depends on how you define "powerful" - 14/09/2009 02:30:31 AM 988 Views
I agree 101%. *NM* - 14/09/2009 03:49:51 AM 498 Views
I think power is much more than raw strength - 14/09/2009 05:00:10 AM 896 Views
I agree for the most part, but disagree on one thing. - 14/09/2009 07:52:10 PM 1050 Views

So is graendal similar to lanfear then? - 13/09/2009 05:41:42 PM 861 Views
Graendal could fight Lanfear and win - 13/09/2009 06:01:57 PM 1431 Views

Doesn't Graendal have an Angreal now? - 17/09/2009 03:29:10 AM 964 Views
Re: Graendal herself says... - 15/09/2009 05:36:53 PM 804 Views
Lanfear was more powerful than Graendal, but Cyndane has less power - 13/09/2009 10:19:35 PM 890 Views
Re: So is graendal similar to lanfear then? - 13/09/2009 06:05:11 PM 1041 Views
I agree with this - 13/09/2009 06:15:24 PM 1034 Views
Compulsion=any other deadly weave. Doesn't really change matters - 13/09/2009 10:23:40 PM 912 Views
Excellent point *NM* - 13/09/2009 10:35:08 PM 511 Views
But it did give her an edge, and against two forsaken. *NM* - 13/09/2009 11:12:09 PM 481 Views
Hm? When? *NM* - 14/09/2009 09:04:10 PM 414 Views
tPoD, when she compelled Cyndane and Moghedien. *NM* - 14/09/2009 10:19:23 PM 457 Views
Not at all - 14/09/2009 04:51:48 AM 957 Views
Using Compulsion on someone doesn't seem mechanically different - 14/09/2009 09:03:41 PM 812 Views
I'm not so sure about that - 14/09/2009 09:36:45 PM 891 Views
Totally agree - 14/09/2009 10:26:07 PM 732 Views
I don't agree. - 15/09/2009 04:33:04 PM 1012 Views
Re: So is graendal similar to lanfear then? - 14/09/2009 04:34:24 PM 853 Views
But Graendal confronted her... twice! *NM* - 13/09/2009 07:48:29 PM 428 Views
Apparently only the third time counts *NM* - 13/09/2009 08:00:37 PM 469 Views

No falsely... - 13/09/2009 11:25:40 PM 1101 Views
That's pretty much my opinion in a nutshell - 14/09/2009 04:56:15 AM 1056 Views
And, of course, the male and female OP strength ranks might not even correlate that much - 14/09/2009 04:41:58 PM 821 Views
They correlate on some critical points - 14/09/2009 06:57:43 PM 1007 Views
That's not exactly what I'm referring to. - 15/09/2009 04:36:29 PM 773 Views
But then we are discussing the same thing - 15/09/2009 06:59:04 PM 912 Views
I think, outside of semantics, our main disagreement doesn't lie amid the higher tiers - 16/09/2009 03:53:09 PM 775 Views

Re: Ahh the old debate... - 17/09/2009 05:26:52 AM 826 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 895 Views
I do think Ishamel is special - 14/09/2009 07:04:03 PM 989 Views
He's special the same way any individual is special. - 14/09/2009 11:36:42 PM 942 Views

The more interesting question is... - 14/09/2009 06:34:11 PM 817 Views
Hmmm - 14/09/2009 07:04:34 PM 888 Views
I think we'll see Graendal vs. Aran'gar. - 14/09/2009 07:31:16 PM 927 Views
Ah yes, that makes sense, and would be great! *NM* - 14/09/2009 07:40:29 PM 747 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 807 Views
They do imply that Graendal is a lot more dangerous than she looks - 14/09/2009 09:08:43 PM 842 Views
I've never underestimated Graendal - 14/09/2009 09:42:49 PM 890 Views
Yeah... her frivolity was always a red flag for me too. - 14/09/2009 10:18:40 PM 921 Views
To me, she is the most lethal. - 15/09/2009 05:18:10 PM 682 Views
Yup... - 15/09/2009 06:39:20 PM 735 Views
I still like Lanfear more - 15/09/2009 06:51:03 PM 829 Views
Bah! She's an idiot! - 15/09/2009 07:06:06 PM 827 Views
only in love *NM* - 15/09/2009 07:23:29 PM 788 Views
Graendal did not beat me and Moghedien - 15/09/2009 05:59:39 PM 920 Views
Agreed - 15/09/2009 06:36:48 PM 813 Views
Ummm... how do we know? - 15/09/2009 06:40:57 PM 951 Views
