I dissagree Ashaman Narishma Send a noteboard - 24/12/2010 07:09:41 PM
yeah, isn't that how the "deathgates" work? Shadow spawn can't survive being touched by the O.P. So when they pass through a gateway it kills them. Tollocs check in but they don't check out.


well, IIRC the deathgates mostly work on the principle that the gateway edges are extremely sharp, and that's the reason they open and close and they have not a round shape: that way, no one would survive a deathgate. The fact that shadowspawn can't pass through them is just a "plus".


The aim of the deathgate to kill a trolloc is to pass it through the gateway thus killing it in the process... I imagine if a channeler wanted an extremely sharp edge to slice trollocs they can use focused air or anything else. Gateways for that purpose are not cost effective.

Yes, RJ confirmed that Shadowspawn can't survive gateways. *NM* Lord Haart - 24/12/2010 07:39:02 PM 622 Views
And then BS confirmed that gholam are "more perfected" Shadowspawn which can. *NM* moratcorlm - 24/12/2010 08:35:34 PM 622 Views
Read the post I responded too. I know that. Lord Haart - 26/12/2010 11:58:40 AM 1303 Views
Why would them not being able to survive a gateway be a problem? DREWRULESWOT! - 26/01/2011 05:36:09 AM 1132 Views

They prepared a place, and it just happened to be within walking distance of the attack? rAndy aL - 25/12/2010 09:44:34 AM 1303 Views
Please re-read the chapter. It expalins a lot. Skeeve the Great - 25/12/2010 04:05:50 PM 1307 Views
Your quote shows what happened. rAndy aL - 26/12/2010 05:33:44 AM 1252 Views
Likely picked from a handful of pre-determined locations based on where and when the attack occurred darius_sedai - 31/12/2010 08:47:20 PM 1280 Views
Perhaps, but I don't think so. ˥ɐ ʎpu∀ɹ - 01/01/2011 01:19:12 AM 1153 Views
Not realty. Caemlyn is huge by the standards of the time but realistically it's tiny darius_sedai - 01/01/2011 06:05:06 AM 1119 Views
The sizes I proposed are not huge (well, they would be by standards in the middle ages but not now) ˥ɐ ʎpu∀ɹ - 04/01/2011 06:37:50 AM 1050 Views
I believe Caemlyn is less than 300k people .... That's what .05% the size of London? darius_sedai - 30/01/2011 06:02:50 PM 1109 Views
You aren't seriously comparing modern population densities to medieval ones, are you? *NM* Ghavrel - 30/01/2011 09:23:57 PM 592 Views

That would be an error if it hadn't been Skimming (the platform and what not) they were using. Chas - 25/12/2010 02:29:39 AM 1226 Views
It is an error because they opened a skimming gateway to the house (from the skimming place) rAndy aL - 25/12/2010 09:47:08 AM 1225 Views

I'm confused now as to what you're arguing. They knew the location of the house. Chas - 26/12/2010 08:54:17 PM 1208 Views
You need to know more than just where you are going rAndy aL - 27/12/2010 06:59:21 AM 1266 Views

I stand corrected. Though I will say that the uses in the books don't match the definition. Chas - 28/12/2010 02:17:43 PM 1240 Views
Not that hard if you think about it darius_sedai - 30/01/2011 09:39:34 PM 1257 Views
