I think that... Shannow Send a noteboard - 23/11/2009 06:14:29 PM
Hi, perhaps my second post in 4 years or so. I'm so prolific.

Anyway...

I always thought that it's possibe that the SOUL is what gives the link to the Power, whereas the BODY determines how strong the person will be.
By this idea (Not that I'm assuming it's right by any means...) that a channeller reborn into another life/time or a channeller given a new body would have to be born into a body which also had the capacity to channel, 1 out of the 2 won't cut it. Kind of like a version of cod-genetics I'm trying to sell here I suppose.

Not sure what about the body determines strength, but I doubt that it's something physical such as body mass as over three thousand years and more even the thickest channellers would have noticed such a trend as Arnold Scwarzeneger types always being the most powerful!

Feel free to pick holes/drive lorrys through the holes in my idea!

Also, if anything wants explaining more if I've not been clear or this has been posted before, sorry.


Your soul determines your maximum strength, and your body can either allow full access to this strength, or reduce it if it is not strong enough.

In other words, for maximum strength you need a maximum strength soul plus a maximum strength body. If either one isn't maximum, your strength is limited to the weaker of the two aspects.

Some interesting new RAFOs and information from BS Etzel - 23/11/2009 12:13:37 PM 2781 Views
Thanks! I hadn't made the connection between Rand's paranoya and the dagger wound. *NM* RandAllThor - 23/11/2009 12:50:42 PM 870 Views

Thank you.... I have a feeling that we haven't see the last of Elaida after Brandon's recent comment Matrimony Cauthon - 23/11/2009 07:33:24 PM 951 Views
Yeah, good work... I tried to find that thread but I couldn't... it must have been on wotmania *NM* Matrimony Cauthon - 23/11/2009 07:39:21 PM 563 Views

Very interesting read, thanks Tam! *NM* Dodge - 23/11/2009 01:17:06 PM 679 Views
Very interesting, but they wasted a lot of time on questions they knew would be RAFO. Tom - 23/11/2009 02:17:47 PM 1189 Views
I think, though... Etzel - 23/11/2009 02:33:29 PM 1150 Views
He seems to indicate that RAFO doesn't necessarily mean we'll ever get an answer, though. Legolas - 23/11/2009 03:43:26 PM 1138 Views

Agreed... Etzel - 23/11/2009 04:29:13 PM 1161 Views
I like the Padan Fain questions. Also, Lanfear / Cyndane discussion was exciting. Logain - 23/11/2009 05:12:14 PM 1875 Views

I'm convinced Moiraine's going to enjoy a Gandalf effect with her strength... Shannow - 23/11/2009 05:49:07 PM 1362 Views
I'm also entertaining that idea Sidious - 23/11/2009 06:23:30 PM 1059 Views
Hmm, but how? Etzel - 23/11/2009 06:26:00 PM 1043 Views

I'm not going to argue the theory, but, Moiraine won't give a crap about deference after her ordeal. *NM* Deadsy - 23/11/2009 09:13:30 PM 536 Views
I agree to some extent Logain - 23/11/2009 10:23:03 PM 863 Views
Says who? Sidious - 24/11/2009 07:02:30 AM 832 Views
Moiraine has always been somewhat of a rebel, and what you say is sort of in agreement Deadsy - 24/11/2009 07:55:16 AM 983 Views

If stilling is Healed, you come back at about 1/3rd of your former strength... Shannow - 23/11/2009 06:18:20 PM 898 Views
Not ot mention, that's only if you're healed by someone of the same gender. *NM* Marshall - 23/11/2009 08:44:14 PM 450 Views

I don't think is beyond the realm of possibility, but did Lanfear actually have any wishes left? Matrimony Cauthon - 23/11/2009 08:53:38 PM 859 Views
