Here is the quote: Etzel Send a noteboard - 15/12/2009 03:35:34 PM
Week 2 Question: "Is the mark that Alviarin received from Shaidar Haran the same as that the Forsaken received from the Dark One? If so, is she now a Forsaken, or some sort of lesser Chosen?"

Robert Jordan Answers: "The mark that Alviarin received from Shaidar Haran was not the same as that given to the Forsaken, though it shares one function: Shadowspawn will recognize her as belonging to the Dark One. They will not obey her as they will the Forsaken, however, but she doesn't have to worry about one trying to kill her, either. She is not any sort of lesser Chosen. You might think of it more like the tattoo some people get put inside the ear of their dog, an identification so others will know who the dog belongs to as soon as they see it."

Why would she be worried about that if she ordered it, though? - 15/12/2009 02:01:10 AM 896 Views

Alviarin's Mark doesn't give her control over shadowspawn. RJ told us this in a Q&A. - 14/12/2009 08:49:50 PM 886 Views
