Re: The death of Cadsuane Datakim Send a noteboard - 03/01/2010 10:09:58 PM

How do we know that Cadsuane doesn't have a ter'angreal protecting her from TP attacks? I seem to remember she gained a few without knowing their uses so there is a slight possibility she has said ter'angreal without knowing it. The old channeler she got them from obviously found them from a stasis box. Now whoever commissioned/created the ter'angreal suit in the AoL was most certainly fighting in the War of Power. Whoever owned the ter'angreal suit was a proficient channeler and would have come across/or heard of the TP: therefore taking defense against TP in mind while constructing the ter'angreal suit.

Of course this is all speculation, but the likelihood of Caddy owning a OP defender is the same as her owning a TP defender, since both would have been prevalent in the life a super AS/Forsaken--who would be facing Forsaken/super AS with the equipment (s)he was packing.


Obviously we dont, but it seems highly unlikely.

The TP was a very rare type of power that was wielded by only the forsaken and even then only in great need. Ishamael is the only one we know of that uses it regularly and everyone calls him mad for that. TP was so rare infact that no one in the current age even seems to know of its existence (other than the forsaken and ltt/rand).

Given that, and the fact that BS said that the Far Madding guardian does not offer TP protection, we would have to believe that someone who should barely know that TP existed, and who would think that the DO was sealed and the forsaken dealt with, took the time and effort to develop a special TP blocking ter'angreal and construct it, without even having a TP channeler to test it against.

Cadsuane's ornaments have been called deus ex machina before, but giving her a TP repelling ter'angreal would just be utterly ridicilous.

BS says there will be "reciprocity" for Cadsuane's treatment of Semirhage... Shannow - 20/12/2009 08:43:56 PM 1118 Views
Would be nice, but who will do it? Datakim - 20/12/2009 08:54:03 PM 1036 Views

Did he actually say that? RandAllThor - 20/12/2009 09:02:47 PM 944 Views
Yes, that's the quote. So the question is, how much of his own way does he have... *NM* Shannow - 20/12/2009 09:07:50 PM 361 Views
Probably not much. Datakim - 20/12/2009 09:26:45 PM 848 Views
She wouldn't have to die... just come incredibly close to it + pile on a mountain of humiliation. BlackAdder - 20/12/2009 11:22:21 PM 673 Views
She is going to die soon anyway probably. Why not be crushed like a bug by Moridin? Datakim - 20/12/2009 11:40:38 PM 700 Views
Damage doesn't appear to be irriversible, look at Setalle Anan and Siuan and Leane darius_sedai - 26/12/2009 05:52:02 PM 663 Views
Do we know for certain? Cadsuane has had the oaths a lot longer. Datakim - 26/12/2009 06:27:12 PM 765 Views
Nothing overtly stating this, but darius_sedai - 26/12/2009 06:36:08 PM 640 Views
Well, she didn't kill Semi, just humiliated her. I look forward to the reciprocity! *NM* BlackAdder - 20/12/2009 11:27:25 PM 384 Views

Of course, I'm 99% sure a Red is responsible, but it would be an interesting twist. Lord Haart - 24/01/2010 05:42:21 AM 668 Views
actually I think Rand saved Rand darius_sedai - 24/01/2010 05:56:06 AM 589 Views

I don't really agree that she "kept the Aiel in line", seems like there are pleny of people darius_sedai - 24/01/2010 04:53:16 PM 554 Views
Sorilea did something in The Gathering Storm? Fanatic-Templar - 24/01/2010 07:21:44 AM 593 Views
Well, she may have betrayed Rand to Semirhage darius_sedai - 24/01/2010 04:54:58 PM 826 Views
