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 1777 Views
Nope, Myrddraal have been nothing but cannon fodder since book four *NM* Lordling - 28/12/2009 03:01:01 PM 414 Views
except, of course, for Shaidar Haran *NM* darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 03:12:17 PM 422 Views
But what was the purpose then? Etzel - 28/12/2009 03:43:01 PM 760 Views
To show the relationship between Fain and DO Bonden - 28/12/2009 03:52:59 PM 712 Views
Maybe... Etzel - 28/12/2009 04:02:42 PM 717 Views

Slayer also hunts Rand Etzel - 28/12/2009 03:57:11 PM 754 Views
I think it's possible that Slayer could have killed Asmo darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 04:35:57 PM 668 Views
The explanations Etzel - 28/12/2009 05:06:02 PM 938 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 855 Views
Your reaction would be similar to BS's then Etzel - 28/12/2009 05:57:44 PM 1804 Views
I don't really have a strong opinion on which suspect did it darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 06:03:07 PM 670 Views
Well... Etzel - 28/12/2009 06:42:16 PM 735 Views
Indeed *NM* darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 06:55:52 PM 370 Views

The case for Graendal was already weak before TGS... Etzel - 28/12/2009 08:13:07 PM 696 Views
Re: The case for Graendal was already weak before TGS... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 28/12/2009 10:19:24 PM 777 Views
The reason is... Etzel - 29/12/2009 11:58:24 AM 757 Views
The reasoning is very weak. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 03:34:19 PM 743 Views
If you mean... Etzel - 29/12/2009 04:01:25 PM 819 Views
A few points darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 04:14:12 PM 680 Views
You are wrong... Etzel - 29/12/2009 04:25:09 PM 672 Views
Thanks for the quote .. obviously hadn't heard that one before! darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 04:31:37 PM 761 Views
Key word - "possibly" RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 04:38:46 PM 671 Views
As said, if you just compare it to Alviarin's mark, it's clear. Etzel - 29/12/2009 05:06:47 PM 650 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 607 Views
Well, it protects you of Shadowspawn, not that bad. Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:12:04 PM 650 Views
I don't think what happened to Fain or Slayer are "gifts" darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:26:15 PM 578 Views
Slayer calls it "gifts" in his PoV Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:37:49 PM 599 Views
I think you are stretching the reality a bit darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:42:10 PM 666 Views
You confuse it a bit... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:57:07 PM 728 Views
I think you've got it backwards darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 07:12:02 PM 626 Views
However... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:16:08 PM 666 Views
I wasn't arguing that point darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 08:13:25 PM 886 Views
Some things don't have to be spelled out, if they are that clear... *NM* Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:18:05 PM 614 Views
clearly they do since people are discussing it! darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 09:37:00 PM 599 Views
Yes; it is not readily apparant that the mark was made with the TP. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:12:07 PM 664 Views
Sorry, but that is utter nonsense Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:24:54 PM 751 Views
You are incorrect; I'm actually thinking that you only skimmed certain sections! RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:38:37 PM 713 Views
Simply read the books and what the authors said... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:55:42 PM 664 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 627 Views
Ok, then we play dumb, if you like... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:14:58 PM 748 Views
Because the Dark One is not merely a super channeler. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:21:21 PM 754 Views
Well, I disagree of course... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:36:19 PM 876 Views
You are mistaken on quite a few counts. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 04:37:51 PM 827 Views
Actually... Etzel - 29/12/2009 05:04:54 PM 739 Views
BWB says... darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 05:48:40 PM 969 Views
Exactly. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:12:30 PM 340 Views
Well... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:18:08 PM 774 Views
Just pointing out that your comment about Lanfear and Moggy not being assassins darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 06:37:21 PM 677 Views
No... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:47:07 PM 863 Views
Re: No... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:00:20 PM 843 Views
Again... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:10:12 PM 606 Views
So you dismiss the actual assassinations the Forsaken have performed on-screen? RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:26:55 PM 635 Views
Again... Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:47:57 PM 580 Views
I think any Forsaken is capable of doing it. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 08:05:10 PM 667 Views
Then another Forsaken, e.g. Sammael.. Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:16:50 PM 546 Views
Re: Then another Forsaken, e.g. Sammael.. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 09:21:23 PM 641 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 350 Views
Yeah, after TFoH! We are looking for clues before LoC, guys! *sigh* Etzel - 29/12/2009 08:31:13 PM 556 Views
Where did I say this was a clue to her doing it? darius_sedai - 29/12/2009 09:58:29 PM 752 Views
I don't say... Etzel - 30/12/2009 12:08:27 PM 816 Views
Most of what you are talking about with Slayer is discoverd after LoC darius_sedai - 30/12/2009 02:36:18 PM 725 Views
Re: Well... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 06:41:29 PM 645 Views
It becomes clear... Etzel - 29/12/2009 06:59:03 PM 574 Views
Basically, you think Slayer killed him. I do not. Nor do I care. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 07:04:20 PM 555 Views
Fair enough. *NM* Etzel - 29/12/2009 07:17:22 PM 404 Views

Re: As said... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 28/12/2009 07:49:22 PM 647 Views
It's rather the TP, which makes Slayer inhuman... Etzel - 28/12/2009 08:21:20 PM 629 Views
makes you wonder darius_sedai - 28/12/2009 09:45:08 PM 676 Views

Fain's Myrddraal killed asmo LOL *NM* aldapelan - 29/12/2009 05:26:22 AM 404 Views
It is quite obvious that it was Mistress Laras. *NM* RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/12/2009 03:35:36 PM 369 Views
Intuitively, even. *NM* Gher - 29/12/2009 06:03:13 PM 367 Views
