It's rather the TP, which makes Slayer inhuman... Etzel Send a noteboard - 28/12/2009 08:21:20 PM
I doubt it. Just because someone is insane or have a disordered emotional response rendering them inhuman doesn't meant that they have any advantage.

The fact is, Slayer could have eliminated Perrin, but he couldn't, otherwise this would have been arranged. He could have killed Perrin in TAR, leaving a husk behind. He didn't. That is enough to convince me that Slayer is an enemy whose ability set places him closer to a Wise One Dreamer than a full-blown channeler.


He got his powers as gifts from the DO after all. And just because Slayer didn't manage to kill Perrin (who was still needed for the plot), doesn't mean that Slayer isn't a deadly top assassin, who successfully killed Asmo. After all, the Forsaken also didn't manage to kill a ta'veren for obvious plot reasons.

Nope, Myrddraal have been nothing but cannon fodder since book four *NM* Lordling - 28/12/2009 03:01:01 PM 544 Views
except, of course, for Shaidar Haran *NM* darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 03:12:17 PM 527 Views
But what was the purpose then? Etzel - 28/12/2009 03:43:01 PM 1002 Views
To show the relationship between Fain and DO Bonden - 28/12/2009 03:52:59 PM 968 Views

Slayer also hunts Rand Etzel - 28/12/2009 03:57:11 PM 1034 Views
I think it's possible that Slayer could have killed Asmo darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 04:35:57 PM 924 Views
The explanations Etzel - 28/12/2009 05:06:02 PM 1180 Views
Perhaps, I still don't buy it, but if that's the way it turns out I won't be shocked darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 05:20:06 PM 1129 Views
Your reaction would be similar to BS's then Etzel - 28/12/2009 05:57:44 PM 2046 Views
I don't really have a strong opinion on which suspect did it darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 06:03:07 PM 928 Views
Well... Etzel - 28/12/2009 06:42:16 PM 973 Views
Indeed *NM* darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 06:55:52 PM 475 Views

The reason is... Etzel - 29/12/2009 11:58:24 AM 985 Views
The reasoning is very weak. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 03:34:19 PM 1006 Views
If you mean... Etzel - 29/12/2009 04:01:25 PM 1092 Views
A few points darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 04:14:12 PM 924 Views
You are wrong... Etzel - 29/12/2009 04:25:09 PM 921 Views
Thanks for the quote .. obviously hadn't heard that one before! darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 04:31:37 PM 1011 Views
Key word - "possibly" RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 04:38:46 PM 923 Views
As said, if you just compare it to Alviarin's mark, it's clear. Etzel - 29/12/2009 05:06:47 PM 892 Views
Re: As said, if you just compare it to Alviarin's mark, it's clear. darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:08:09 PM 821 Views
Well, it protects you of Shadowspawn, not that bad. Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:12:04 PM 909 Views
I don't think what happened to Fain or Slayer are "gifts" darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:26:15 PM 826 Views
Slayer calls it "gifts" in his PoV Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:37:49 PM 863 Views
I think you are stretching the reality a bit darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:42:10 PM 912 Views
You confuse it a bit... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:57:07 PM 976 Views
I think you've got it backwards darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 07:12:02 PM 880 Views
However... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:16:08 PM 914 Views
I wasn't arguing that point darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 08:13:25 PM 1147 Views
Some things don't have to be spelled out, if they are that clear... *NM* Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:18:05 PM 881 Views
clearly they do since people are discussing it! darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 09:37:00 PM 846 Views
Yes; it is not readily apparant that the mark was made with the TP. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:12:07 PM 943 Views
Sorry, but that is utter nonsense Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:24:54 PM 1033 Views
You are incorrect; I'm actually thinking that you only skimmed certain sections! RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:38:37 PM 986 Views
Simply read the books and what the authors said... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:55:42 PM 922 Views
Sorry, I think you have an opinion and read everything to support it in this case. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:02:42 PM 893 Views
Ok, then we play dumb, if you like... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:14:58 PM 1007 Views
Because the Dark One is not merely a super channeler. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:21:21 PM 1020 Views
Well, I disagree of course... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:36:19 PM 1161 Views
You are mistaken on quite a few counts. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 04:37:51 PM 1061 Views
Actually... Etzel - 29/12/2009 05:04:54 PM 976 Views
BWB says... darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 05:48:40 PM 1218 Views
Exactly. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:12:30 PM 464 Views
Well... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:18:08 PM 1042 Views
Just pointing out that your comment about Lanfear and Moggy not being assassins darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:37:21 PM 932 Views
No... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:47:07 PM 1153 Views
Re: No... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:00:20 PM 1104 Views
Again... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:10:12 PM 868 Views
So you dismiss the actual assassinations the Forsaken have performed on-screen? RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:26:55 PM 897 Views
Again... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:47:57 PM 829 Views
I think any Forsaken is capable of doing it. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 08:05:10 PM 918 Views
Then another Forsaken, e.g. Sammael.. Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:16:50 PM 785 Views

She kidnapped the Sharan's ... who's to say she hasn't killed others? *NM* darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 08:17:28 PM 462 Views
Yeah, after TFoH! We are looking for clues before LoC, guys! *sigh* Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:31:13 PM 771 Views
Where did I say this was a clue to her doing it? darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 09:58:29 PM 1007 Views
I don't say... Etzel - 30/12/2009 12:08:27 PM 1109 Views
Most of what you are talking about with Slayer is discoverd after LoC darius_sedai - 30/12/2009 02:36:18 PM 998 Views
Re: Well... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:41:29 PM 911 Views
It becomes clear... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:59:03 PM 828 Views
Basically, you think Slayer killed him. I do not. Nor do I care. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:04:20 PM 794 Views
Fair enough. *NM* Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:17:22 PM 505 Views

Fain's Myrddraal killed asmo LOL *NM* aldapelan - 29/12/2009 05:26:22 AM 523 Views
It is quite obvious that it was Mistress Laras. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 03:35:36 PM 485 Views
Intuitively, even. *NM* Gher - 29/12/2009 06:03:13 PM 464 Views
