No, it's based on absolutely nothing Sidious Send a noteboard - 19/11/2009 04:50:30 PM
There is actually no evidence that Alivia is the strongest of all damane. It actually would be very surprising if of all damane, Rand's troops managed to capture the strongest of all Seanchan damane in PoD. Most likely some super strong damane are in the possession of the Imperial Family. It makes sense then that Tuon took at least one super strong damane with her for the campaign in the Westlands.

But maybe BS will clarify it in coming Q&A (maybe he would answer "Is Alivia the strongest damane out there or at least the strongest among those we have seen in the series?", or Sera will play a more important role in ToM and/or AMoL, which shows her true strength.


This theory is based on nothing. You cannot assume that the strongest damane belong to the Imperial Family because it's common sense. There is no evidence for it and actual evidence AGAINST it because we've seen Tuon and her damane.

I've never claimed that Alivia is the strongest damane. She's merely the damane who RJ wanted us to know and she's got super strength.

There's no evidence for that Sidious - 19/11/2009 04:31:17 PM 720 Views
I agree with Sidious - we have no evidence at this time, so she should remain off the list kcf - 19/11/2009 04:38:31 PM 725 Views
It's common sense Etzel - 19/11/2009 04:40:01 PM 678 Views

If you agree that there are stronger damane than Alivia... Etzel - 19/11/2009 05:00:05 PM 658 Views
I didn't say that Sidious - 19/11/2009 05:07:33 PM 665 Views
Well, I think you are wrong... Etzel - 19/11/2009 05:35:27 PM 658 Views
Glad to have you back. Now for the arguments to start! Shannow - 19/11/2009 04:29:01 PM 776 Views
Hmm... Sidious - 19/11/2009 04:47:12 PM 781 Views
Actually, you are the one placing Lanfear immensely high, my list reduced the strength difference... Shannow - 19/11/2009 05:05:18 PM 852 Views
But I'm not Sidious - 19/11/2009 05:17:05 PM 753 Views
Let me ask you this... Shannow - 19/11/2009 10:13:12 PM 796 Views
Very good point *NM* Logain - 20/11/2009 01:38:55 AM 338 Views

All assumption Sidious - 20/11/2009 04:11:20 AM 660 Views
Why introduce that concept, if it is just of academic importance? Shannow - 20/11/2009 07:41:54 AM 629 Views
You don't know the significance of it at all Sidious - 20/11/2009 03:14:46 PM 747 Views

How can you argue in such a way and still keep a straight face (presumably)... Shannow - 20/11/2009 05:07:39 PM 659 Views

Is Graendal the only Forsaken NOT to overstate her own ability then? Shannow - 21/11/2009 01:53:28 PM 751 Views
Probably not in this case Sidious - 21/11/2009 11:34:25 PM 630 Views
Your rankings hinge ENTIRELY on whether you have Graendal correctly placed. Logain - 20/11/2009 03:24:22 PM 582 Views
Yeah... entirely Sidious - 20/11/2009 04:33:45 PM 616 Views

This perfectly matches my understanding of the situation. Rand al'Thor - 19/11/2009 07:06:31 PM 611 Views
Seems good, except I'd bunch up the upper levels and place Nynaeve a little higher. *NM* fionwe1987 - 19/11/2009 09:46:16 PM 385 Views
Agreed! This make more sense than the previous list *NM* Basara - 20/11/2009 12:07:37 AM 388 Views

You are completely right about too many levels. Logain - 20/11/2009 04:17:17 AM 618 Views

I'm the same way. I should be studying for law school finals, but I'm distracted. *NM* Logain - 20/11/2009 09:45:46 PM 302 Views
