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.)

~Life's a puzzle. Go figure.

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 950 Views
I wouldn't think so... - 21/12/2009 02:37:39 AM 1115 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 544 Views
Rand did it - 21/12/2009 04:41:54 AM 1019 Views
Honey, you're confused. - 21/12/2009 04:56:02 AM 1017 Views

The context of the conversation should've been the clue. - 21/12/2009 05:07:40 AM 1190 Views
Beg to differ - 21/12/2009 05:21:01 AM 911 Views
beg harder :p - 21/12/2009 05:26:28 AM 1042 Views
Which is exactly what I said earlier *NM* - 21/12/2009 05:28:36 AM 415 Views
Saidin and saidar are the same Power. - 21/12/2009 05:27:50 AM 1065 Views
OK, that clears it up for me... *NM* - 21/12/2009 05:30:01 AM 488 Views
No problem. *NM* - 21/12/2009 06:58:22 AM 377 Views
You're allowed to be wrong. - 21/12/2009 05:30:15 AM 1079 Views

I stand (sit really) corrected. - 21/12/2009 05:47:09 AM 1097 Views

Can TP users link with OP users, or even link at all? *NM* - 21/12/2009 02:40:36 PM 528 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 1319 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 1035 Views
The name "True Power" is simply Shadow propaganda. *NM* - 21/12/2009 04:18:25 PM 568 Views
What about the "bloody Power"? Band of the Red Hand propaganda? *NM* - 21/12/2009 06:14:16 PM 473 Views
*shrug* RJ could have easily justified a more unique name - 22/12/2009 05:09:09 PM 1069 Views
It's precisely the intention... - 22/12/2009 05:43:55 PM 960 Views
The reason 'two halves of a whole' is relevant... - 21/12/2009 06:51:07 PM 1076 Views
Yeah, I think it would probably destroy the body of the person attempting it. - 21/12/2009 06:27:50 PM 922 Views
Hmm - 21/12/2009 07:42:14 PM 997 Views
Haven't we already seen the effects of mixing TP and OP... - 21/12/2009 09:50:18 PM 1043 Views
Could just be two balefire streams trying to undo each other. - 21/12/2009 11:25:31 PM 816 Views
This may be important at the LB - 22/12/2009 11:36:53 AM 1087 Views
I find that unlikely. - 22/12/2009 08:57:24 PM 990 Views
It has to be important sometime - 22/12/2009 09:10:46 PM 1071 Views
Such as showing how close Rand came to being the Shadow's Champion? *NM* - 22/12/2009 09:35:25 PM 526 Views
If that's the only purpose, awesome story potential has been wasted *NM* - 22/12/2009 09:51:51 PM 517 Views
Ì'm with Gher on this one. - 22/12/2009 10:27:48 PM 1017 Views
Good point. Fighting the DO with the TP is an Aridhol mindset. *NM* - 22/12/2009 10:40:02 PM 476 Views
Heh, the abbreviations made me laugh just now. *NM* - 22/12/2009 10:40:48 PM 500 Views
He used the evil TP to balefire evil Semi. Be on the alert for Mordeth. *NM* - 23/12/2009 12:05:33 AM 964 Views
And the title of that chapter is "The Last that Could be Done" - 23/12/2009 02:54:35 AM 980 Views
I would venture to say 'No' - 22/12/2009 07:47:50 PM 923 Views
