The BA must be better at recruiting than normal Aes Sedai rAndy aL Send a noteboard - 04/12/2009 12:47:11 AM
What makes the WT different?


Most channelers in the world are not found by the White Tower while they are the right age. I would say that almost all darkfriends with the ability are recruited, because they can be more useful that way. The Shadow also seems to have ignored other organisations of channelers like the Kin.

It's not surprising that the WT would have more darkfriends compared to the general population, but 20% still seems a little high. I imagine the Black Tower will have similar problems.

I'd think the lifespan and power a channeler has are both big factors Gher - 03/12/2009 10:31:54 PM 1011 Views

I see no reason to believe Kari was a Darkfriend. Ishamael is a liar, and that's that. Fanatic-Templar - 04/12/2009 01:19:00 AM 838 Views

The same could be said for the great majority of characters in the series. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 04/12/2009 04:19:50 AM 380 Views
Also, think of the way Aes Sedai recruit. Fanatic-Templar - 04/12/2009 01:17:37 AM 852 Views
In the Age of Legends, 50% of channelers turned to the Shadow, if memory serves. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 04/12/2009 01:11:35 AM 407 Views
It makes you wonder if they knew the Dark One was "evil" Marshall - 04/12/2009 01:25:24 AM 946 Views

agreed. accepting that power comes at a price isn't evil. it's what drives people NOT to fail... Onarishma - 04/12/2009 08:51:01 AM 834 Views
