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 2065 Views
I thought Shara was begging to be noticed as a last minute foe. - 14/11/2015 02:46:42 AM 1771 Views
So did a lot of people. But... - 14/11/2015 05:27:27 AM 1764 Views
I still tend to think Demandred in Shara was Sanderson's creation - 16/11/2015 09:07:28 PM 1956 Views

I don't get the Nynaeve note - 14/11/2015 02:32:28 AM 1851 Views
There are a lot of inexplicable notes like this. - 14/11/2015 06:33:11 AM 1814 Views
Nynaeve was one of the few who met the original Balthamel and Aginor - 17/11/2015 08:46:43 PM 1512 Views

It's interesting that stopping Taimandred coincided with the drop in series quality. - 16/11/2015 05:02:38 AM 2194 Views
Some of this could have been interesting - 16/11/2015 04:37:00 PM 1713 Views
It would take away from Verin though - 16/11/2015 05:05:41 PM 1230 Views
That is a good point - 16/11/2015 08:52:37 PM 1323 Views
For the record my suggestion was not that he was a mole - 17/11/2015 01:56:41 AM 1523 Views
that was clear in your post - 19/11/2015 05:36:02 PM 1293 Views
Sanderson certainly did that - 20/11/2015 05:08:03 PM 1565 Views
I don't think I would have cared for that - 20/11/2015 06:05:19 PM 1449 Views
It didn't necessarily have to be "dark", just a bit less two-dimensional. - 20/11/2015 10:00:59 PM 1478 Views
I mostly agree - 21/11/2015 06:38:31 AM 1314 Views
This I can agree with - 23/11/2015 04:12:19 PM 1219 Views
I don't read a ton of fantasy anymore - 23/11/2015 04:29:47 PM 1604 Views
