Re: Posing as Sammael is Graendal's modus operandi Sidious Send a noteboard - 15/12/2009 02:21:07 PM
Because she is adapt at such intrigue and likes to play mind-games (apparently Aran'gar got a similar idea before and posed as Demandred to send the DF Asha'man against Rand). Besides that, Graendal especially likes to wear Masks of Mirrors and could certainly convincingly play Sammael & sent an army (without any tactical instructions, though). I also don't see why Semirhage would play Sammael, since the other Forsaken believe that he is most likely dead (and no one knows that Graendal is especially certain that Sammael must be dead, because she searched his *angreal stash).

The other dead Forsaken were balefired or traitors. Therefore it only makes sense to play Sammael, if you want to confuse the others, if a fellow Forsaken returned.


That doesn't make any sense. If everyone knows that Sammael is dead then it would be ludicrous to disguise yourself as him. She might as well disguise herself as Rand.

The other Forsaken have no idea if Sammael is dead - Graendal only convinces herself of that fact in TGS.

And once again, Graendal is not a general. She doesn't shunt Shadowspawn around. Several sources say so.

I think this Mydraal in question was Shaidar Haran 1.5, was it not? I don't remember. *NM* Marshall - 14/12/2009 08:50:24 PM 392 Views
SH obviously wasn't one of the Myrddraal, who were ordered by "Sammael" to attack Rand. *NM* Etzel - 14/12/2009 08:53:43 PM 337 Views
Graendal's streith gown gives a lot away... Shannow - 14/12/2009 08:53:49 PM 1721 Views
Yes... Etzel - 14/12/2009 09:00:26 PM 859 Views
Why would she be worried about that if she ordered it, though? BlackAdder - 15/12/2009 02:01:10 AM 822 Views
I think she excludes herself in TGS Sidious - 15/12/2009 04:39:18 AM 961 Views
Very interesting argument... Shannow - 14/12/2009 08:49:08 PM 960 Views
Alviarin's Mark doesn't give her control over shadowspawn. RJ told us this in a Q&A. Marshall - 14/12/2009 08:49:50 PM 811 Views
Link please to the RJ quote. *NM* Logain - 15/12/2009 03:31:06 PM 310 Views
Here is the quote: Etzel - 15/12/2009 03:35:34 PM 750 Views
Thanks! So we can eliminate Alviarrin for sure! *NM* Logain - 15/12/2009 03:50:05 PM 300 Views
I always thought it was Demandred kcf - 14/12/2009 08:59:01 PM 1252 Views
I saw Demandred's comment to mean the following: Shannow - 14/12/2009 09:07:26 PM 894 Views

I agree Sidious - 15/12/2009 04:44:14 AM 851 Views

But if she want's to appear as Sammael, she would surely "act in character"... Shannow - 15/12/2009 02:42:27 PM 816 Views

Let's look at purpose and method... Shannow - 15/12/2009 02:34:36 PM 847 Views
I don't think it makes much sense that this was a test Etzel - 15/12/2009 07:20:52 AM 825 Views
