I agree, but I think it's about the DO being totally random darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 11/12/2009 07:07:17 PM
I was referring to punishment in any manner, be it mindtrap or rape :P.

None of the male Forsaken who have been destroyed have been punished in the extreme ways that the female Chosen have been.

It's just weird to me that Moghedien and Mesaana, the weakest of the Forsaken, have proven to be slightly more useful than some of the Balthamel and Aginor, yet they get punishments beyond a slap on the wrist.


As Verin noted he seems to prize selfishness above other traits... he punished Mesaana, Lanfear and Moghedien for betraying him (in effect). The others were just killed for making boneheaded moves in his name... seems like there is less shame in failing as long as you fail with the proper attitude in place!

LOL. Are you implying Mesaana killed Asmodean? *NM* - 10/12/2009 07:13:27 PM 279 Views
That would be a funny twist, but in reality I think we all know - 10/12/2009 08:10:16 PM 601 Views
Yes; this pretty much matched my expectations - esp. for Demandred. - 10/12/2009 04:56:32 PM 741 Views

But BS said that Shaidar Haran couldn't do things in the physical world without aid. - 11/12/2009 03:20:59 PM 600 Views
I think that just proves SH isn't gay! *NM* - 11/12/2009 04:07:47 PM 269 Views

I agree, but I think it's about the DO being totally random - 11/12/2009 07:07:17 PM 598 Views

To be fair, Mesaana's brood of channelers promise could still come to fruition. *NM* - 10/12/2009 04:58:28 PM 289 Views
Yup, especially if she is a higher-up AS in the tower. - 10/12/2009 05:57:12 PM 576 Views
