Just because she's an academic ... Shishka Send a noteboard - 18/01/2010 08:27:50 PM
I can't imagine Mesaana going for a glove of Air. It sounds impressive, but she seems academic and I think she'll block it on a mental level perhaps. Like a warding on her mind.


... doesn't mean she wouldn't utilize a simple solution to a problem if one was available. Unless you equate "academic" with "moron". :)

Actually, if I were her, I would have implemented multiple solutions/tricks to prevent the Oaths from activating, just to be on the safe side.
Rise and fall, turn the Wheel,
'cause all life is
is really just a circle.

Mesaana and defeating the Oath Rod Shishka - 18/01/2010 04:50:29 PM 2711 Views
I'm think Mesaana's hand is quicker than the eye Sidious - 18/01/2010 05:12:12 PM 1349 Views

I like that idea ... Shishka - 18/01/2010 06:07:09 PM 1142 Views
A little archaic though Sidious - 18/01/2010 06:58:04 PM 1131 Views

I don't think Messana would have fallen over dead Ryan - 18/01/2010 06:06:35 PM 1179 Views
I agree ... Shishka - 18/01/2010 06:15:25 PM 1066 Views
I'm not sure Sidious - 18/01/2010 06:54:51 PM 1081 Views
It didn't when Romanda retook her Oaths in TGS darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 07:13:20 PM 907 Views
Hmmm ... Shishka - 18/01/2010 07:24:51 PM 1082 Views
No she unswore them and retook them darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 07:33:30 PM 1126 Views
Yeah, I realized that after I posted, so I editted my post (again) ... Shishka - 18/01/2010 07:36:39 PM 1091 Views
I'm not sure I follow darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 07:41:19 PM 1105 Views
The point I was trying to make was ... Shishka - 18/01/2010 08:05:16 PM 903 Views
Now I get it ... seems needlessly complex for the Oath Rod though darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 08:21:35 PM 896 Views
Yes, this is what I was thinking *NM* PhoenixReborn - 18/01/2010 08:29:20 PM 437 Views
What you suggested is pretty much what I've always thought ... Shishka - 18/01/2010 08:39:30 PM 906 Views
yup darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 09:02:04 PM 784 Views
I'm with you, though ... Shishka - 18/01/2010 09:27:59 PM 1065 Views
The closest evidence we have is a Stilled/Burned out woman darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 09:49:41 PM 915 Views
But if being unbound reverts you to your normal lifespan, then being bound isn't really a punishment *NM* PhoenixReborn - 18/01/2010 09:52:29 PM 439 Views
Sure it is darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 10:02:09 PM 933 Views
Also ... Shishka - 18/01/2010 10:13:38 PM 911 Views
I considered that ... Shishka - 18/01/2010 10:11:32 PM 1010 Views

see above *NM* darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 08:23:28 PM 467 Views
I think it more like aging them faster... PhoenixReborn - 18/01/2010 08:24:56 PM 997 Views
and given how things in the AoL works this seems far more likely darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 08:32:52 PM 946 Views

The Dark Ones Mark possibly could black the oath rod? *NM* Kieran - 20/01/2010 01:28:08 AM 451 Views
No, that can't be it, because when AS become Black Ajah ... Shishka - 20/01/2010 02:53:21 PM 869 Views
But Alviarin's mark is different. Perhaps the mark of a FS is too *NM* darius_sedai - 20/01/2010 04:21:16 PM 413 Views
Good point. I sort of misinterpreted what Kieran was suggesting. *NM* Shishka - 20/01/2010 07:19:02 PM 428 Views
Re: Good point. I sort of misinterpreted what Kieran was suggesting. Kieran - 22/01/2010 01:52:51 AM 1082 Views
actually it's different darius_sedai - 22/01/2010 07:32:18 AM 983 Views
actually I think it's the same... Kieran - 23/01/2010 01:49:19 AM 681 Views
Nup. Unlike the FS, her mark will not allow her to order Darkspawn (plus more). *NM* Lord Haart - 23/01/2010 11:50:36 AM 455 Views
Which has nothing to do with my post regarding the Oath rod... *NM* Kieran - 24/01/2010 10:44:59 PM 438 Views
One point... fionwe1987 - 18/01/2010 06:12:26 PM 1076 Views
Good point ... Shishka - 18/01/2010 06:21:22 PM 860 Views
here's another quote that gives us darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 07:12:09 PM 1125 Views

Re: Mesaana and defeating the Oath Rod randfandom - 18/01/2010 09:43:34 PM 1032 Views
I'm thinking the point of the thread is to discuss how to beat the Oath Rod, not Mesaana's disguise darius_sedai - 18/01/2010 09:59:18 PM 860 Views
Right, and also ... Shishka - 18/01/2010 10:17:11 PM 883 Views
Except that the best way to 'defeat' the Oath rod is - not to take the Oaths at all Lord Haart - 19/01/2010 03:18:43 AM 782 Views
IMHO... Great Lord of Chaos - 19/01/2010 03:41:10 AM 1079 Views
Another interesting possibility Skeeve the Great - 19/01/2010 05:08:42 PM 876 Views
I'd say it was highly unlikely that the Binder/Oath Rod works that way. *NM* Shishka - 19/01/2010 06:06:49 PM 376 Views
We've seen pretty weird stuff happens before Skeeve the Great - 19/01/2010 06:30:12 PM 963 Views

I agree, it seems as if Moghedien just effectively transmigrated Birgitte darius_sedai - 19/01/2010 10:00:45 PM 987 Views
she could just be posing as a non-channeler. badassashaman - 19/01/2010 05:52:01 PM 865 Views

Nice find! Not sure if that is a "way to defeat the Oath Rod" exactly, but it's certainly feasible. Lord Haart - 20/01/2010 03:19:51 AM 1046 Views
Wow, that's great. I wonder what else can be created there, like sa'angeals, etc. BlackAdder - 20/01/2010 03:54:01 AM 824 Views
