Well... Etzel Send a noteboard - 11/12/2009 06:04:47 PM
RJ mentioned Demandred as the second Top Forsaken once:
"With the Forsaken, where treachery and backstabbing were an acceptable way of getting ahead, the turnover in the upper ranks was fairly high, though Ishamael, Demandred, Lanfear, Graendal, Semirhage, and later Sammael, were always at the top end of the pyramid."

Therefore it seems doubtful that he is the least intelligent. Besides that, the other Forsaken all consider him very dangerous. Plus, we know e.g. from the Guide that he is a very powerful channeler.

Again, just because we readers don't know yet what Demandred was up to (we just have our theories), naturally doesn't mean that he did nothing.

Oh you are being unfair! darius_sedai - 10/12/2009 04:49:31 PM 700 Views
LOL. Are you implying Mesaana killed Asmodean? *NM* Logain - 10/12/2009 07:13:27 PM 266 Views
That would be a funny twist, but in reality I think we all know darius_sedai - 10/12/2009 08:10:16 PM 561 Views
Yes; this pretty much matched my expectations - esp. for Demandred. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 10/12/2009 04:56:32 PM 705 Views
Mesaana was motivated out of... Logain - 10/12/2009 07:16:43 PM 622 Views

But BS said that Shaidar Haran couldn't do things in the physical world without aid. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 11/12/2009 03:20:59 PM 564 Views
I think that just proves SH isn't gay! *NM* fionwe1987 - 11/12/2009 04:07:47 PM 255 Views

I agree, but I think it's about the DO being totally random darius_sedai - 11/12/2009 07:07:17 PM 557 Views
Did he say he could not touch things, or that he just could not counter uber-channeling? Datakim - 12/12/2009 12:30:40 AM 496 Views
I don't ever want to find out who Demandred is Deadsy - 11/12/2009 02:47:58 PM 498 Views

But the point is valid darius_sedai - 10/12/2009 05:32:12 PM 746 Views
I'm pretty sure he did something... Etzel - 10/12/2009 05:33:04 PM 597 Views
Re: I'm pretty sure he did something... darius_sedai - 10/12/2009 07:51:25 PM 480 Views
Yeah, but now Graendal is dead, while Demandred is still alive. *NM* Etzel - 10/12/2009 08:29:24 PM 501 Views
Re: Yeah, but now Graendal is dead, while Demandred is still alive. *NM* darius_sedai - 11/12/2009 12:17:54 AM 447 Views
I tend to agree Sidious - 11/12/2009 06:52:51 AM 610 Views
I think Demandred is pretty smart... Etzel - 11/12/2009 11:45:58 AM 513 Views
of course he's never set foot anywhere close to anything long enough darius_sedai - 11/12/2009 02:11:19 PM 484 Views
Is it smart to take a risk... Etzel - 11/12/2009 02:22:18 PM 469 Views
I think your making a lot of assumptions darius_sedai - 11/12/2009 05:40:47 PM 497 Views

I agree that Demandred will fail in the end. Etzel - 12/12/2009 11:00:59 AM 493 Views
Either a Channeler or Mat darius_sedai - 12/12/2009 03:41:09 PM 418 Views
According to RJ... Sidious - 12/12/2009 12:32:12 PM 585 Views

Thanks for the BS quote, that's new news to me! darius_sedai - 12/12/2009 03:55:37 PM 472 Views
Moridin didn't want to betrayal Sammael... Etzel - 12/12/2009 04:07:49 PM 461 Views
It amounts to the same thing darius_sedai - 12/12/2009 04:12:42 PM 498 Views
Then you could also say... Etzel - 12/12/2009 04:22:30 PM 457 Views
no actually you cannot darius_sedai - 12/12/2009 04:46:03 PM 460 Views

thanks for your permission darius_sedai - 12/12/2009 04:53:01 PM 476 Views
To be fair, Mesaana's brood of channelers promise could still come to fruition. *NM* RandAllThor - 10/12/2009 04:58:28 PM 274 Views
Yup, especially if she is a higher-up AS in the tower. Lord Haart - 10/12/2009 05:57:12 PM 536 Views

That was RJ's biggest flaw, IMO Deadsy - 11/12/2009 02:45:41 PM 528 Views
I'll respond to someone who wants to say that beetnemesis - 11/12/2009 05:19:52 PM 578 Views
Ya. Fain's a good exception. I still have hopes for him. And... Thereva was scary, but... Deadsy - 11/12/2009 08:32:38 PM 474 Views
Slayer/Luc/Isam is also pretty cool. Lord Haart - 12/12/2009 04:16:14 PM 468 Views
