I think your making a lot of assumptions darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 11/12/2009 05:40:47 PM
If all other Forsaken, who took a risk, failed and suffered?
Even Moridin eventually - namely after three defeats and being killed - realized that he should better leave Rand alone for the moment (already before they became linked in the end of ACoS).

Therefore Demandred is arguably the smartest Forsaken, since he simply concentrates on his work (which will be revealed yet), and probably will be one of the few Forsaken still standing at TG, and (besides Moridin) the only one who didn't personally anger the DO yet.


about a character we've seen very little of! For all we know he could be the least intelligent too!

Graendal ended up dead without ever laying eyes on Rand, but at least she had the balls to make an effort

What I know about Demandred:

1. He's building an army somewhere
2. He hates LTT
3. He is well hidden, even from the other Forsaken
4. He has not taken a single open action of his own accord

Not all that inspired to believe that he's got anything beyond Talent for talking big and doing nothing!

Oh you are being unfair! darius_sedai - 10/12/2009 04:49:31 PM 841 Views
LOL. Are you implying Mesaana killed Asmodean? *NM* Logain - 10/12/2009 07:13:27 PM 334 Views
That would be a funny twist, but in reality I think we all know darius_sedai - 10/12/2009 08:10:16 PM 745 Views
Yes; this pretty much matched my expectations - esp. for Demandred. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 10/12/2009 04:56:32 PM 853 Views
Mesaana was motivated out of... Logain - 10/12/2009 07:16:43 PM 778 Views
Ah, then she would be more of an idiot than I thought. 2nd Rate indeed. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 10/12/2009 08:19:05 PM 308 Views

But BS said that Shaidar Haran couldn't do things in the physical world without aid. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 11/12/2009 03:20:59 PM 716 Views
I think that just proves SH isn't gay! *NM* fionwe1987 - 11/12/2009 04:07:47 PM 316 Views
Or it could just prove darius_sedai - 11/12/2009 05:42:33 PM 685 Views
Re: Or it could just prove RugbyPlayingAshaman - 11/12/2009 07:00:57 PM 616 Views
I agree, but I think it's about the DO being totally random darius_sedai - 11/12/2009 07:07:17 PM 711 Views
Did he say he could not touch things, or that he just could not counter uber-channeling? Datakim - 12/12/2009 12:30:40 AM 673 Views
I don't ever want to find out who Demandred is Deadsy - 11/12/2009 02:47:58 PM 637 Views

I would say... Etzel - 10/12/2009 04:58:15 PM 755 Views
he hasn't really done anything lankyevilme - 10/12/2009 05:25:03 PM 759 Views
But the point is valid darius_sedai - 10/12/2009 05:32:12 PM 881 Views
I'm pretty sure he did something... Etzel - 10/12/2009 05:33:04 PM 748 Views
Re: I'm pretty sure he did something... darius_sedai - 10/12/2009 07:51:25 PM 638 Views
Yeah, but now Graendal is dead, while Demandred is still alive. *NM* Etzel - 10/12/2009 08:29:24 PM 634 Views

I tend to agree Sidious - 11/12/2009 06:52:51 AM 798 Views
I think Demandred is pretty smart... Etzel - 11/12/2009 11:45:58 AM 682 Views
of course he's never set foot anywhere close to anything long enough darius_sedai - 11/12/2009 02:11:19 PM 639 Views
Is it smart to take a risk... Etzel - 11/12/2009 02:22:18 PM 619 Views
I think your making a lot of assumptions darius_sedai - 11/12/2009 05:40:47 PM 639 Views
Well... Etzel - 11/12/2009 06:04:47 PM 670 Views

I agree that Demandred will fail in the end. Etzel - 12/12/2009 11:00:59 AM 636 Views
Either a Channeler or Mat darius_sedai - 12/12/2009 03:41:09 PM 578 Views
According to RJ... Sidious - 12/12/2009 12:32:12 PM 738 Views
makes you wonder darius_sedai - 12/12/2009 03:39:08 PM 677 Views
Re: makes you wonder Etzel - 12/12/2009 03:47:18 PM 619 Views
Thanks for the BS quote, that's new news to me! darius_sedai - 12/12/2009 03:55:37 PM 625 Views
Moridin didn't want to betrayal Sammael... Etzel - 12/12/2009 04:07:49 PM 597 Views
It amounts to the same thing darius_sedai - 12/12/2009 04:12:42 PM 665 Views
Then you could also say... Etzel - 12/12/2009 04:22:30 PM 599 Views
no actually you cannot darius_sedai - 12/12/2009 04:46:03 PM 617 Views

thanks for your permission darius_sedai - 12/12/2009 04:53:01 PM 623 Views
To be fair, Mesaana's brood of channelers promise could still come to fruition. *NM* RandAllThor - 10/12/2009 04:58:28 PM 348 Views
Yup, especially if she is a higher-up AS in the tower. Lord Haart - 10/12/2009 05:57:12 PM 711 Views
Sanderson's first attempt at portraying the Forsaken based on character summaries in RJ's notes... Shannow - 10/12/2009 05:29:51 PM 849 Views
Well... Sidious - 11/12/2009 06:55:17 AM 683 Views
That was RJ's biggest flaw, IMO Deadsy - 11/12/2009 02:45:41 PM 666 Views
I'll respond to someone who wants to say that beetnemesis - 11/12/2009 05:19:52 PM 752 Views
Ya. Fain's a good exception. I still have hopes for him. And... Thereva was scary, but... Deadsy - 11/12/2009 08:32:38 PM 628 Views
Slayer/Luc/Isam is also pretty cool. Lord Haart - 12/12/2009 04:16:14 PM 654 Views
One theme of tGS was "The Forsaken are actually pretty lame" beetnemesis - 11/12/2009 05:12:55 PM 689 Views
