Re: No, not at all. The only visualization problem I've had with characters are Rand and Lanfear Lord Haart Send a noteboard - 06/12/2010 12:55:58 AM
For one thing, when RJ revealed that Rand is 6'7", I was blown away. That's a ridiculous height, especially given the general nutritional knowledge, etc, of the people. It also means that Egwene and many others are basically staring at his belt buckle all the time. Characters would actually complain about neck pains, or would stand really far back from him.


I know people around that height, and it's really not that bad. That said, I'm 6'2" myself and others might find it more unsettling.

his height comparisons were always suspect Deadsy - 06/12/2010 02:57:20 AM 1337 Views
He's also compared to people with a wide variety of heights. Joel - 06/12/2010 03:09:24 AM 1803 Views

The good thing about personal pronouns is they're widely applicable; it's also the bad thing. Joel - 06/12/2010 03:34:36 AM 1372 Views
The comparison that got me was when they said that Demandred's Johnson was '2nd best' *NM* Reishi - 06/12/2010 08:41:36 AM 808 Views
It's all about proportions, and taste. Joel - 06/12/2010 03:17:39 AM 1352 Views
Gross. All I can think of when you say proportions is Rand's huge dong covered in red pubes Reishi - 06/12/2010 08:38:31 AM 1646 Views
Sounds like a personal problem. Joel - 06/12/2010 11:44:27 AM 1505 Views
At least Rand's pubic hair matches Elayne and Aviendha *NM* Guava - 06/12/2010 02:51:52 AM 731 Views
Or as some would say, do the curtains match the rug? *NM* Reishi - 06/12/2010 08:35:44 AM 723 Views
What could his hair color possibly have to do with it? Joel - 06/12/2010 03:42:24 AM 1304 Views
Ginger-hate is real... red heads just can't be taken seriously *NM* Reishi - 06/12/2010 08:37:14 AM 1003 Views
No, no, the rule is they can't be taken INTERNALLY. Joel - 06/12/2010 11:45:51 AM 1470 Views
