Re: Why is Elaida getting so hard and dark? (A quick survey) Gerbeaud Send a noteboard - 02/10/2009 03:45:07 PM
I have heard a lot of theories why Elaida has been getting so hard and dark lately. I thought it might be best to just put them out on the table and let you decide. In no particular order

a) Padan Fain's touch
b) The Dark One's touch (similar to way war of power began)
c) Ta'veren induced madness similar to what happened to Maseema
d) She has been turned to the dark side by 13 BA and 13 Myrdraal
e) Mesaana has been influencing her directly
f) The Sitters response to Elaida has brought out the worst in her
g) She has joined the BA
h) Other

RabidWombat


I think that both (a) and (b) have had an affect on Elaida. Although neither are directly responsible for her behaviour. These two factors have, however, amplified her core characteristics. Elaida is power hungry, obsessed with her own superiority and inflexible. She interprets events and facts as she wishes to see them not how they might be.
