Not even really a contest. johnnymack Send a noteboard - 23/01/2010 06:25:26 PM
Moiraine..hands down. The question was who has sacrificed the most and Moiraine clearly HAS sacrificed and was willing to sacifice the most. Verin? She was undoubtably brave..But in the end she was doing something she loved...studying...What Moiraine loved or wanted or needed never entered her thoughts.For her it was ALL about the Cause..She gave up friendship, love,romance,any hope of advancment in the Tower..She stated more than once in various ways that she would toss her own morals out the window if it came to it and in the end she didn'teven hesitate to die for her cause. ALL the other candidates..including Rand.. hang on or hung on to something else, be it love or a passion of theirs or even hope for a normal life agian...Moiraine gave it all up..She was a hard-ass mamma.

I'd say there are only two serious candidates, and one clear winner beetnemesis - 23/01/2010 09:12:01 AM 1058 Views

Bornhold, leading the suicide charge against the Seanchan in TGH. Lord Haart - 23/01/2010 11:15:14 AM 1035 Views
I also approve of both your suggestions. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 23/01/2010 05:11:26 PM 428 Views
Yes, but you're incompetent Sidious - 25/01/2010 04:39:49 PM 828 Views

But Tuon wasn't threatened with death... fionwe1987 - 25/01/2010 05:20:17 PM 723 Views
Occasionally. At least I didn't dedicate my life to achieving mediocrity, Hidious. Fanatic-Templar - 25/01/2010 05:42:21 PM 824 Views

Can totally get behind Tuon for that scene. Bornhold's a boring fanatic, though. *NM* beetnemesis - 24/01/2010 09:28:11 AM 453 Views
Rand? Fanatic-Templar - 23/01/2010 05:08:48 PM 1005 Views

Incidentally... Fanatic-Templar - 23/01/2010 10:00:02 PM 889 Views
Short answer: her life (and lifetime) beetnemesis - 24/01/2010 09:32:32 AM 1002 Views

Psh, who joins the Aes Sedai with a cause? beetnemesis - 24/01/2010 09:55:29 AM 767 Views
How did she ever dodge the Black Ajah? Lordling - 24/01/2010 10:53:17 AM 827 Views
Bravery vs Sacrifice. Lord Haart - 24/01/2010 03:42:13 PM 932 Views
She was fighting the BA, but they couldn't know she existed beetnemesis - 25/01/2010 05:14:47 AM 925 Views
Not the point. Fanatic-Templar - 24/01/2010 06:16:05 PM 753 Views
The thing is, most of the people I try to think of didn't really have a 'cause' ... Yondaime - 23/01/2010 11:34:42 PM 975 Views
That's just it. That's really the Dragon Reborn myth in a nutshell, really. beetnemesis - 24/01/2010 09:38:12 AM 917 Views
That's an interesting comment. Gher - 25/01/2010 04:20:15 AM 841 Views

Egwene should be considered *NM* Reptile - 24/01/2010 04:50:38 PM 412 Views
I'm going with darius_sedai - 24/01/2010 06:06:57 AM 871 Views
A very sensible suggestion. I agree. *NM* Lordling - 24/01/2010 10:56:55 AM 364 Views
All the Forsaken except Mesaana and perhaps Moridin qualify. Lord Haart - 24/01/2010 03:49:17 PM 791 Views
Easy Winner... Kieran - 24/01/2010 10:36:14 PM 763 Views

I'll have to disagree with this Sidious - 25/01/2010 04:37:43 PM 754 Views
I think that title is best suited to Elayne darius_sedai - 25/01/2010 05:01:03 PM 1088 Views
And she is just plain lucky too. And people tend to save her a$$. amirebram - 26/01/2010 10:10:33 PM 792 Views
I changed my mind - Tigraine Mantear is the bravest character I can think of. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 27/01/2010 06:01:32 PM 839 Views
Lews Therin and the hundred Companions Sidious - 25/01/2010 04:31:03 PM 893 Views
+1, this belongs on the list *NM* BlackAdder - 26/01/2010 11:27:00 AM 338 Views
I can't really credit Lews Therin with anything. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 27/01/2010 06:01:09 PM 724 Views
Why's he too powerful? Sidious - 28/01/2010 04:31:56 PM 724 Views
Dragon Reborn, plus mightiest channeler, plus t'a'veren of great magnitude, plus leader of the World RugbyPlayingAshaman - 28/01/2010 05:56:13 PM 686 Views
Tamra. Her speech after Gitara Moroso's death in NS was heartbreaking. Lord Haart - 26/01/2010 08:28:37 AM 726 Views
I'd say Galad ranagrande - 29/01/2010 10:08:36 PM 662 Views
Nynaeve isn't the "most fearless", but she is the bravest JasonD - 24/02/2010 09:18:15 PM 907 Views
