makes you wonder darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 28/12/2009 09:45:08 PM
I doubt it. Just because someone is insane or have a disordered emotional response rendering them inhuman doesn't meant that they have any advantage.

The fact is, Slayer could have eliminated Perrin, but he couldn't, otherwise this would have been arranged. He could have killed Perrin in TAR, leaving a husk behind. He didn't. That is enough to convince me that Slayer is an enemy whose ability set places him closer to a Wise One Dreamer than a full-blown channeler.


He got his powers as gifts from the DO after all. And just because Slayer didn't manage to kill Perrin (who was still needed for the plot), doesn't mean that Slayer isn't a deadly top assassin, who successfully killed Asmo. After all, the Forsaken also didn't manage to kill a ta'veren for obvious plot reasons.



Since he's been around what 20-25ish years ... what was Isam up to during that timeframe, and was Luc already a Darkfriend? We know that Luc probably killed Janduin, but was he already Slayer at that time?

Fain's Myrddraal Etzel - 28/12/2009 01:45:58 PM 1769 Views
Nope, Myrddraal have been nothing but cannon fodder since book four *NM* Lordling - 28/12/2009 03:01:01 PM 407 Views
except, of course, for Shaidar Haran *NM* darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 03:12:17 PM 416 Views
But what was the purpose then? Etzel - 28/12/2009 03:43:01 PM 748 Views
To show the relationship between Fain and DO Bonden - 28/12/2009 03:52:59 PM 702 Views
Maybe... Etzel - 28/12/2009 04:02:42 PM 705 Views

Slayer also hunts Rand Etzel - 28/12/2009 03:57:11 PM 745 Views
I think it's possible that Slayer could have killed Asmo darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 04:35:57 PM 657 Views
The explanations Etzel - 28/12/2009 05:06:02 PM 926 Views
Perhaps, I still don't buy it, but if that's the way it turns out I won't be shocked darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 05:20:06 PM 845 Views
Your reaction would be similar to BS's then Etzel - 28/12/2009 05:57:44 PM 1789 Views
I don't really have a strong opinion on which suspect did it darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 06:03:07 PM 658 Views
Well... Etzel - 28/12/2009 06:42:16 PM 726 Views
Indeed *NM* darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 06:55:52 PM 365 Views

The case for Graendal was already weak before TGS... Etzel - 28/12/2009 08:13:07 PM 676 Views
Re: The case for Graendal was already weak before TGS... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 28/12/2009 10:19:24 PM 765 Views
The reason is... Etzel - 29/12/2009 11:58:24 AM 745 Views
The reasoning is very weak. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 03:34:19 PM 728 Views
If you mean... Etzel - 29/12/2009 04:01:25 PM 806 Views
A few points darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 04:14:12 PM 666 Views
You are wrong... Etzel - 29/12/2009 04:25:09 PM 660 Views
Thanks for the quote .. obviously hadn't heard that one before! darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 04:31:37 PM 752 Views
Key word - "possibly" RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 04:38:46 PM 660 Views
As said, if you just compare it to Alviarin's mark, it's clear. Etzel - 29/12/2009 05:06:47 PM 638 Views
Re: As said, if you just compare it to Alviarin's mark, it's clear. darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:08:09 PM 596 Views
Well, it protects you of Shadowspawn, not that bad. Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:12:04 PM 639 Views
I don't think what happened to Fain or Slayer are "gifts" darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:26:15 PM 565 Views
Slayer calls it "gifts" in his PoV Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:37:49 PM 591 Views
I think you are stretching the reality a bit darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:42:10 PM 656 Views
You confuse it a bit... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:57:07 PM 715 Views
I think you've got it backwards darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 07:12:02 PM 613 Views
However... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:16:08 PM 655 Views
I wasn't arguing that point darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 08:13:25 PM 876 Views
Some things don't have to be spelled out, if they are that clear... *NM* Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:18:05 PM 602 Views
clearly they do since people are discussing it! darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 09:37:00 PM 588 Views
Yes; it is not readily apparant that the mark was made with the TP. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:12:07 PM 653 Views
Sorry, but that is utter nonsense Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:24:54 PM 740 Views
You are incorrect; I'm actually thinking that you only skimmed certain sections! RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:38:37 PM 705 Views
Simply read the books and what the authors said... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:55:42 PM 653 Views
Sorry, I think you have an opinion and read everything to support it in this case. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:02:42 PM 616 Views
Ok, then we play dumb, if you like... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:14:58 PM 740 Views
Because the Dark One is not merely a super channeler. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:21:21 PM 745 Views
Well, I disagree of course... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:36:19 PM 864 Views
You are mistaken on quite a few counts. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 04:37:51 PM 816 Views
Actually... Etzel - 29/12/2009 05:04:54 PM 727 Views
BWB says... darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 05:48:40 PM 959 Views
Exactly. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:12:30 PM 335 Views
Well... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:18:08 PM 763 Views
Just pointing out that your comment about Lanfear and Moggy not being assassins darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:37:21 PM 666 Views
No... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:47:07 PM 850 Views
Re: No... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:00:20 PM 834 Views
Again... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:10:12 PM 597 Views
So you dismiss the actual assassinations the Forsaken have performed on-screen? RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:26:55 PM 625 Views
Again... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:47:57 PM 570 Views
I think any Forsaken is capable of doing it. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 08:05:10 PM 656 Views
Then another Forsaken, e.g. Sammael.. Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:16:50 PM 536 Views
Re: Then another Forsaken, e.g. Sammael.. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 09:21:23 PM 628 Views
She kidnapped the Sharan's ... who's to say she hasn't killed others? *NM* darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 08:17:28 PM 346 Views
Yeah, after TFoH! We are looking for clues before LoC, guys! *sigh* Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:31:13 PM 546 Views
Where did I say this was a clue to her doing it? darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 09:58:29 PM 742 Views
I don't say... Etzel - 30/12/2009 12:08:27 PM 799 Views
Most of what you are talking about with Slayer is discoverd after LoC darius_sedai - 30/12/2009 02:36:18 PM 715 Views
Re: Well... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:41:29 PM 631 Views
It becomes clear... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:59:03 PM 562 Views
Basically, you think Slayer killed him. I do not. Nor do I care. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:04:20 PM 545 Views
Fair enough. *NM* Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:17:22 PM 397 Views

Re: As said... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 28/12/2009 07:49:22 PM 638 Views
It's rather the TP, which makes Slayer inhuman... Etzel - 28/12/2009 08:21:20 PM 620 Views
makes you wonder darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 09:45:08 PM 665 Views

Fain's Myrddraal killed asmo LOL *NM* aldapelan - 29/12/2009 05:26:22 AM 398 Views
It is quite obvious that it was Mistress Laras. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 03:35:36 PM 365 Views
Intuitively, even. *NM* Gher - 29/12/2009 06:03:13 PM 361 Views
