A simple survey here. Brandon Sanderson said that of all of the channelers in the world, only 6 people are stronger than Nynaeve. So this simple survey asks one question. Is Nynaeve of "very rare" strength?

Let me know what you think?


That there are six female channelers in the series (i.e. named characters) above Nynaeve on the list. Most likely there are other stronger damane, Ayyad or channelers in the Land of the Madmen, who will never be named.

However, to have a strength like Nynaeve is of course still a rare thing.

Actually, you are adding a word that isn't there. Logain - 21/11/2009 03:47:48 PM 1109 Views
IMO, it's self evident that the female list only contains named characters Etzel - 21/11/2009 03:58:33 PM 796 Views
IMO, the above post by "Logain" is trolling and not worth the debating!! *NM* Simon - 21/11/2009 04:01:08 PM 302 Views
I have a valid reason for asking. Logain - 21/11/2009 04:05:52 PM 886 Views

I don't know Etzel - 21/11/2009 04:17:02 PM 615 Views
I find it unlikely that a super strong channeler would end up being unimportant to the plot *NM* Marshall - 21/11/2009 11:54:43 PM 287 Views
This sounds semi-mystical... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 24/11/2009 04:45:52 PM 581 Views
Also, if they were that strong, they would then be important. Marshall - 29/11/2009 05:24:35 PM 573 Views
she's in the top 0.1% of channelers we know of TheCrownless - 21/11/2009 03:01:02 PM 685 Views
She's in the top 0.05% *NM* Marshall - 21/11/2009 11:41:42 PM 287 Views
so shes also in the top 0.1%? *NM* TheCrownless - 22/11/2009 12:04:00 AM 289 Views
Of course. My figure is more exclusive. *NM* Marshall - 22/11/2009 12:23:23 AM 270 Views
Yes *NM* Simon - 21/11/2009 03:56:12 PM 282 Views
Yes, though obviously Etzel is right. Legolas - 21/11/2009 04:08:41 PM 840 Views

So, in terms of Nynaeve's power, do you think she is VERY rare? *NM* Logain - 21/11/2009 06:23:14 PM 289 Views
Yes. She is so rare that she is mythic. A foiled Nynaeve can prolly fetch $100. *NM* Bookwyrm - 21/11/2009 09:59:28 PM 290 Views
So what's the point? Why the quotes? *NM* BlackAdder - 21/11/2009 10:24:37 PM 278 Views

Don't forget Therava. She's stronger than any woman in the tower according to Galina. Logain - 28/11/2009 09:41:10 PM 575 Views

Fionwe1987 is right. We do have a large enough sample. And the linking examples are good. *NM* Logain - 28/11/2009 09:32:14 PM 285 Views
