I don't think that is conclusive to say there is no new Forsaken character. From what I know of the series so far, it looks like the Dark One can raise or create new Forsaken to keep the numbers at 13. It seems he really likes that number! 13 Dreadlords and Myrrdraal are also mentioned as something he can use to convert people. So, I would think he wants to keeps the numbers of Forsaken at thirteen.


No he can't. 'Forsaken' is a term that refers exclusively to the channelers of the Age of Legends (as 'Dreadlord' refers to channelers of the Trolloc Wars), and the only ones living still are those who were sealed in Shayol Ghul in Lews Therin's strike.

As of the end of The Dragon Reborn, I think there are three or four dead Forsaken? Two died at the end of The Eye of the World, one at the end of The Great Hunt (I think they died, but not sure), and one dies at the end of The Dragon Reborn. I would think that the Dark One has been working to make new Forsaken to replenish his losses.

Moiraine knows a lot that the other characters don't know, so I wouldn't be surprised at all if she has knowledge of a newly raised Forsaken!


Aginor and Balthamel died at the Eye of the World, and Be'lal and Ishamael died in the Stone of Tear. None died in The Great Hunt

Anyway, as I said there aren't new Forsaken, and Moiraine wouldn't know of them anyway. She's much more ignorant than you give her credit for. She certainly has no spies in Shai'tan's council.

Thanks. Joel - 12/06/2010 10:14:26 AM 877 Views
Also submitted to QotM - I should have asked BS about Paah at the book signing *NM* Deadsy - 12/06/2010 10:30:23 AM 466 Views
You should've; Paah lives in his house, after all. Joel - 12/06/2010 11:18:23 AM 1066 Views
Paah is a small rotund bear who lives in Mr. Sanders(on)s house. Joel - 12/06/2010 10:24:39 AM 1249 Views
Well, it's italicized, so that means he's really scary. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 12/06/2010 03:04:12 PM 438 Views
