It's the same thing that happens with all powerful characters in TV shows and movies all the time. j-whitt987 Send a noteboard - 29/12/2010 01:54:11 PM
The writer(s) make these characters all powerful because of their abilities or technology and then they need drama that isn't possible with extremely powerful characters so they dumb it down about 200% and hope no one notices. When it's abilities it usually just disappears (like Olivia's super hearing in an episode of Fringe), and when it's technology it's usually a malfunction (just about every Star Trek episode ever made). It happens. Sometimes you don't like it and you don't buy it, but usually you just have to live with it because it's not changing.
Kirk: Spock, you want to know something? Everybody’s human.
Spock: I find that remark…insulting.

Concurrance. Given what we know they can do, channelers are idiotic in battle. *NM* Macharius - 29/12/2010 01:31:29 PM 316 Views

tying a weave makes it easier to break Ava - 29/12/2010 03:10:51 PM 642 Views
Weaves don't have "edges". The weave creates an effect; the effect may simulate a sharp edge. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 03/01/2011 10:49:35 PM 548 Views
some weaves do Ava - 04/01/2011 12:17:21 PM 562 Views
Strength in the Power and magnitude of effects are correlated but not dependent on one another. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 04/01/2011 06:12:40 PM 858 Views
