Re: Pointless characters and deaths in WoT Lo'oris Send a noteboard - 05/12/2010 01:56:53 PM
1. Nicola- What the hell was the point of spending so much time on Nicola only to have her die in such an unceremonious way? Will we ever even see her Birgitte wannabe friend Areina again?

3. Graendal- What the hell was point of saving Graendal only to have her bundle at a plot she didn't even need to be involved in? If Graendal doesn't do anything significant in AMoL, her escape of death will have been one of the most pointless things in all of WoT.

I agree, those two were handled very badly IMHO.

2. Masema- What a let-down. So many chapters describing Masema, only to see him die so quickly.

4. Asunawa- Asunawa seemed so pointless after his hasty death. This chapter just felt so rushed.

About these instead I think their end was proper. After all they were two idiots that for some reason came to power, but sooner or later they meet someone who disagrees... and crushes them.
A fit end for both.

why would you read the series and visit fan sites if you hate it all that much? *NM* Nargs - 04/12/2010 06:38:47 AM 489 Views

If you didn't get Rand's transformation, you're not the intended audience... Lord Haart - 04/12/2010 06:58:20 AM 1150 Views
OFF TOPIC: Lord Haart, are you a HOMM fan? *NM* Nargs - 04/12/2010 07:06:41 AM 614 Views
Yep! Ever since (the original) King's Bounty. *NM* Lord Haart - 05/12/2010 01:38:20 PM 451 Views
Oh, love of course. malekithe - 04/12/2010 07:13:10 AM 1017 Views
Yeah, while you're busy not believing that, you should believe in things like the One Power too. Lord Haart - 04/12/2010 10:28:46 AM 960 Views

You've completely missed the point darius_sedai - 04/12/2010 02:03:06 PM 907 Views
You've completely missed the point! malekithe - 05/12/2010 08:54:47 AM 853 Views
what do you mean? these powers have been manifesting for a while! You need to read more closely darius_sedai - 05/12/2010 03:15:21 PM 954 Views
You're right, why would love ever be the Base of Goodness??? LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 08:59:27 AM 886 Views
You're proving my point actually malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:33:23 AM 796 Views
? at what point was this series not supposed to be stereotypical? LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 09:36:06 AM 935 Views
Well... malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:42:04 AM 1022 Views
uhm, we do? LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 09:48:32 AM 846 Views
Not in Rand malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:55:02 AM 813 Views
channeling isn't far from stereotypical LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 10:10:20 AM 1079 Views
So why do you keep reading? malekithe - 05/12/2010 10:17:49 AM 1038 Views
far from it. LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 10:30:02 AM 835 Views

Again, why are you on this board or even reading this series? Ashaman_Luc - 04/12/2010 02:30:22 PM 1011 Views
Uh excuse me. malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:05:27 AM 923 Views
since you are so very unhappy, I fail to see why you continue to read the books LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 09:09:36 AM 764 Views
Don't twist things to suit yourself malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:38:42 AM 860 Views
I would be unhappy with that ending because the Creator has never worked directly. LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 09:44:17 AM 905 Views
I'd say there's been some unusualness. malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:52:22 AM 854 Views
If Rand was one of the supporting heroes, maybe. But he's the "messiah" character LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 10:15:42 AM 836 Views
Actually, it's got zilch to do with "good" or "evil". Lord Haart - 05/12/2010 01:37:49 PM 965 Views
actually, we don't know how it is done and I like my theory just fine, thank you LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 05:48:19 PM 734 Views
We haven't had a Rand POV, so I don't think you can say for certain that it's random. Lord Haart - 06/12/2010 03:16:43 AM 954 Views
I don't think I can either. I'm not trying to say it's certain. LadyLorraine - 06/12/2010 06:17:04 AM 845 Views
I really like Rand post-epiphany (or BuddhaRand as I call him) RugbyPlayingAshaman - 07/12/2010 04:05:10 PM 759 Views

And right down the page is "Easy life of lightside heroes" moratcorlm - 04/12/2010 10:43:55 AM 950 Views
Yep, can't please everyone. Lord Haart - 05/12/2010 01:40:19 PM 893 Views
