Re: No, not at all. The only visualization problem I've had with characters are Rand and Lanfear Lord Haart Send a noteboard - 06/12/2010 12:55:58 AM
For one thing, when RJ revealed that Rand is 6'7", I was blown away. That's a ridiculous height, especially given the general nutritional knowledge, etc, of the people. It also means that Egwene and many others are basically staring at his belt buckle all the time. Characters would actually complain about neck pains, or would stand really far back from him.


I know people around that height, and it's really not that bad. That said, I'm 6'2" myself and others might find it more unsettling.

his height comparisons were always suspect Deadsy - 06/12/2010 02:57:20 AM 1812 Views
He's also compared to people with a wide variety of heights. Joel - 06/12/2010 03:09:24 AM 2307 Views

The good thing about personal pronouns is they're widely applicable; it's also the bad thing. Joel - 06/12/2010 03:34:36 AM 1840 Views
The comparison that got me was when they said that Demandred's Johnson was '2nd best' *NM* Reishi - 06/12/2010 08:41:36 AM 1014 Views
It's all about proportions, and taste. Joel - 06/12/2010 03:17:39 AM 1808 Views
Gross. All I can think of when you say proportions is Rand's huge dong covered in red pubes Reishi - 06/12/2010 08:38:31 AM 2166 Views
Sounds like a personal problem. Joel - 06/12/2010 11:44:27 AM 1987 Views
At least Rand's pubic hair matches Elayne and Aviendha *NM* Guava - 06/12/2010 02:51:52 AM 938 Views
Or as some would say, do the curtains match the rug? *NM* Reishi - 06/12/2010 08:35:44 AM 923 Views
What could his hair color possibly have to do with it? Joel - 06/12/2010 03:42:24 AM 1779 Views
Ginger-hate is real... red heads just can't be taken seriously *NM* Reishi - 06/12/2010 08:37:14 AM 1221 Views
No, no, the rule is they can't be taken INTERNALLY. Joel - 06/12/2010 11:45:51 AM 1959 Views
