He has pretty much admitted as much publicly. Terez Send a noteboard - 17/11/2015 03:14:19 AM

I think RJ left not much about Demandred's role in the LB, because it was all clear in his head, and I suspect in his "narrative", he used Demandred as the main general of the Shadow facing Mat, without going much into details.

It's possible that RJ left a note that Demandred should use the Ayaad, but Brandon has made it clear that all the backstory for Bao was his own creation. Even the name "Bao" comes from Bao Pham, husband of Aubree, a fan who is relatively high in the DM/con hierarchy.

I just can't believe he was that lazy/sloppy in editing LOC. - 14/11/2015 12:29:47 AM 1987 Views
I thought Shara was begging to be noticed as a last minute foe. - 14/11/2015 02:46:42 AM 1672 Views
So did a lot of people. But... - 14/11/2015 05:27:27 AM 1683 Views
I still tend to think Demandred in Shara was Sanderson's creation - 16/11/2015 09:07:28 PM 1854 Views

I don't get the Nynaeve note - 14/11/2015 02:32:28 AM 1769 Views
There are a lot of inexplicable notes like this. - 14/11/2015 06:33:11 AM 1731 Views
Nynaeve was one of the few who met the original Balthamel and Aginor - 17/11/2015 08:46:43 PM 1438 Views

It's interesting that stopping Taimandred coincided with the drop in series quality. - 16/11/2015 05:02:38 AM 2094 Views
Some of this could have been interesting - 16/11/2015 04:37:00 PM 1599 Views
It would take away from Verin though - 16/11/2015 05:05:41 PM 1147 Views
That is a good point - 16/11/2015 08:52:37 PM 1237 Views
For the record my suggestion was not that he was a mole - 17/11/2015 01:56:41 AM 1432 Views
that was clear in your post - 19/11/2015 05:36:02 PM 1226 Views
Sanderson certainly did that - 20/11/2015 05:08:03 PM 1458 Views
I don't think I would have cared for that - 20/11/2015 06:05:19 PM 1353 Views
It didn't necessarily have to be "dark", just a bit less two-dimensional. - 20/11/2015 10:00:59 PM 1392 Views
I mostly agree - 21/11/2015 06:38:31 AM 1229 Views
This I can agree with - 23/11/2015 04:12:19 PM 1152 Views
I don't read a ton of fantasy anymore - 23/11/2015 04:29:47 PM 1517 Views
