RJ did say... fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 09/07/2015 07:13:01 AM

RJ has said that Aiel Wise ones don't live as long, and don't look as young as they should, because living in the Waste is rough. Mora, the oldest known Wise One, only live to a bit more than 300.

That still would not make sense Joel - 25/06/2015 09:22:48 PM 1349 Views
It would fionwe1987 - 01/07/2015 07:17:09 PM 1340 Views
However many ways they meant "dexterity," ALL are precluded by saying, "pure strength" Joel - 02/07/2015 12:09:11 AM 1478 Views

Yeah, a comprehensive scale restricted to AS would not be comprehensive Joel - 25/06/2015 09:22:36 PM 1373 Views

Sorilea can GRASP the Source reliably; there is no indication she can USE it Joel - 27/06/2015 08:19:19 PM 1375 Views

Since she looks her age I suspect reaching it is almost entirely due to natural longevity Joel - 29/06/2015 09:16:21 PM 1195 Views
Not when you consider Morgase darius_sedai - 30/06/2015 09:02:35 PM 1248 Views
Morghase did use her ability to effect, when unencumbered by Tower nonsense fionwe1987 - 01/07/2015 07:22:47 PM 1595 Views

Sorilea has been at it far longer than Morgase Joel - 02/07/2015 12:21:55 AM 1404 Views

True, but that only makes slowings imprecise nature harder to gauge Joel - 10/07/2015 02:51:45 AM 1673 Views
Morgase spent nearly 2 years in the Tower darius_sedai - 09/07/2015 03:22:06 PM 1565 Views
And countless hours of frustrated focus to--fleetingly--grasp the source ONCE (i.e. less than twice) Joel - 10/07/2015 02:51:53 AM 1445 Views
doesn't make sense as you describe it darius_sedai - 10/07/2015 04:42:31 PM 1170 Views
It does not make sense as Jordan describes it either Joel - 10/07/2015 09:00:36 PM 1419 Views
I agree with all of this fionwe1987 - 10/07/2015 05:21:40 PM 1241 Views
You are wise Joel - 10/07/2015 09:06:16 PM 1326 Views
But the scale was only applicable for Aes Sedai; they are the only ones to whom strength matters Cannoli - 25/06/2015 11:10:45 PM 1297 Views
It MATTERS to everyone; just because it is irrelevant to a hierarchy does not make it absolutely so Joel - 27/06/2015 08:44:07 PM 1296 Views

66 levels for women + 6 ( ? ) for men Terez - 27/06/2015 10:58:16 AM 1525 Views
theory, lesser strength increases the likely hood of a very specific sometimes untapped talent? Aleksis Michael - 30/06/2015 12:25:45 AM 1263 Views
Developed skills are distinct from innate Talents (in Randland, literally) but I would still say no Joel - 30/06/2015 01:21:25 PM 1246 Views
