I'm kind of with BlackAdder on this... jiggy Send a noteboard - 21/12/2009 10:45:09 AM
and so did a bunch of others at the Cleansing.

Of course, they were all in circles, but Rand, for example, was able to weave both saidin and saidar.

So yes, it's possible to use both at the same time, but so far no one has embraced both at the same time.


If Rand could weave Saidin and Saidar at the same time, why not Saidin and the TP? If he was (for some hypothetical reason) leading a circle with someone channelling the TP, I see no reason why he could not weave both at the same time.

I kind of doubt that anyone could embrace both the TP and the OP at once, but maybe we'll see just that in the future?

Now, all this begs the question, if it is possible for a leader of a circle to weave two powers at once, could they weave three?

(Just a quick side note, I know that Saidar and Saidin are two halves of the same power, but I don't see why the principle should change you're linked into a circle with someone embracing one or the other.)

Can a channeler embrace and use the True Power and the One Power at the same time? *NM* - 21/12/2009 01:03:26 AM 883 Views
I wouldn't think so... - 21/12/2009 02:37:39 AM 977 Views
I don't think anyone would have a reason to try and channel both powers at once *NM* - 21/12/2009 04:22:40 AM 471 Views
Rand did it - 21/12/2009 04:41:54 AM 882 Views
Honey, you're confused. - 21/12/2009 04:56:02 AM 887 Views
Re: Honey, you're confused. - 21/12/2009 05:04:15 AM 917 Views
The context of the conversation should've been the clue. - 21/12/2009 05:07:40 AM 1034 Views
Beg to differ - 21/12/2009 05:21:01 AM 772 Views
beg harder :p - 21/12/2009 05:26:28 AM 910 Views
Which is exactly what I said earlier *NM* - 21/12/2009 05:28:36 AM 349 Views
Saidin and saidar are the same Power. - 21/12/2009 05:27:50 AM 929 Views
OK, that clears it up for me... *NM* - 21/12/2009 05:30:01 AM 420 Views
No problem. *NM* - 21/12/2009 06:58:22 AM 315 Views
You're allowed to be wrong. - 21/12/2009 05:30:15 AM 943 Views

I stand (sit really) corrected. - 21/12/2009 05:47:09 AM 958 Views

Can TP users link with OP users, or even link at all? *NM* - 21/12/2009 02:40:36 PM 448 Views
Good questions! I was just wondering if there are a male and female halves of the TP. - 21/12/2009 02:50:41 PM 1167 Views
There definitely are not two half of the TP (btw, anyone else irritated at the name similarity?) - 21/12/2009 04:02:31 PM 869 Views
The name "True Power" is simply Shadow propaganda. *NM* - 21/12/2009 04:18:25 PM 495 Views
What about the "bloody Power"? Band of the Red Hand propaganda? *NM* - 21/12/2009 06:14:16 PM 411 Views
*shrug* RJ could have easily justified a more unique name - 22/12/2009 05:09:09 PM 941 Views
It's precisely the intention... - 22/12/2009 05:43:55 PM 832 Views
The reason 'two halves of a whole' is relevant... - 21/12/2009 06:51:07 PM 947 Views
Yeah, I think it would probably destroy the body of the person attempting it. - 21/12/2009 06:27:50 PM 792 Views
Hmm - 21/12/2009 07:42:14 PM 858 Views
Haven't we already seen the effects of mixing TP and OP... - 21/12/2009 09:50:18 PM 918 Views
Could just be two balefire streams trying to undo each other. - 21/12/2009 11:25:31 PM 693 Views
This may be important at the LB - 22/12/2009 11:36:53 AM 938 Views
I find that unlikely. - 22/12/2009 08:57:24 PM 836 Views
It has to be important sometime - 22/12/2009 09:10:46 PM 920 Views
Such as showing how close Rand came to being the Shadow's Champion? *NM* - 22/12/2009 09:35:25 PM 448 Views
If that's the only purpose, awesome story potential has been wasted *NM* - 22/12/2009 09:51:51 PM 450 Views
Ì'm with Gher on this one. - 22/12/2009 10:27:48 PM 885 Views
Good point. Fighting the DO with the TP is an Aridhol mindset. *NM* - 22/12/2009 10:40:02 PM 406 Views
Heh, the abbreviations made me laugh just now. *NM* - 22/12/2009 10:40:48 PM 432 Views
He used the evil TP to balefire evil Semi. Be on the alert for Mordeth. *NM* - 23/12/2009 12:05:33 AM 778 Views
And the title of that chapter is "The Last that Could be Done" - 23/12/2009 02:54:35 AM 848 Views
I would venture to say 'No' - 22/12/2009 07:47:50 PM 793 Views
