Re: After Rand's epiphany on top of Dragonmount, how many of his negative quirks will change? Lohikaarme Send a noteboard - 02/09/2010 05:29:19 PM
One of the parts of ToM I am most looking foward to is seeing how much of Rand's personality will change now that he has accepted his duty and realized all of what he has been going through is for friends and loved ones.

So how much will Rand actually change? Will it be immediate, or will it be gradual? Will it be a minor change or major change? Some possible changes include:

1) How much more trustworthy will Rand become? Will he allow more people into his inner circle?

2) Will he allow his 3 women to be closer to him and not fear them being assassinated?

3) Will his phobia of having women go into battle and die for him be lessened? Or will this take the return of Moiraine to fully go away?

4) How much will his ego shrink? Will he go to the Seanchen and sign a treaty with them and basially let them have the lands they are currently in?

5) Will he actually have a sense of humor now, and be able to laugh/cry?

6) Will he bring Cadsuane back?

7) Will he meet with Egwene and accept some of her terms? Again, this relates to how much his ego deflates


I know I have missed a bunch, feel free to add your own to mine, or just blast my ideas apart.
1. A lot more trusting than Dark Rand, not as much as in EOTW.

2. Yes.

3. Probably will never get over THAT one.

4. That's exactly what he offered Tuon the last time they met. When Tuon turned him down he basically left at least Arad Doman, possibly more, at their mercy.

5. Yes.

6. Hopefully not in the same position as earlier. He needs someone capable of standing up to him, but he/she/they need to be able to fulfill the duty they take.

7. Also relates to what her terms will be. I don't see why he should though.
Stuck in Finnland!

Hope he doesn't change too much. It'd make him no fun to read. *NM* - 02/09/2010 06:42:11 AM 318 Views
