I kinda wanted to know the processes for making
things like fancloth and other supernatural materials. Thanks for the
help. -------------------- This is an old thing, boy. Older than Aes Sedai.

I remember someone had made weaves to create them.
however there is no mention in any of the books (as far as I can recall)
as to how to make fancloth or the mood- cloth(whatever its called), except
for the fancloth producing ter-angreal in the white tower. The white tower
terangreal makes me think that douring the age of legends these materials
were mass produced the same way we mass produce cloth today, only with the
power instead of electricity. ![]() |

We actually know they were mass produced during the
Age of Legends. There were a few quotes in one of the books, or more,
about how they were high fashion garments. Then when the War of the Shadow
broke out all fancloth went into military uses for obvious reasons.
Streith is the mood cloth and likely remained a fashion garment, or
production of such luxury items may have ground to a trickle during the
war anyway. -------------------- What is dead can never

And what's whitestone? Is that just
cuendillar? Are weaves normally required to make fancloth and moodcloth? Or is it more of a type of decorative tailoring and design? This post has been edited by Two Rivers Wolfbrother on Sep 8 2004, 02:56 AM -------------------- This is an old thing, boy. Older than Aes Sedai.

Whitestone we haven't been given much on but I don't
think it is white ceundillar, which didn't seem the sort of thing you
would build with. I'd say it's a One Power manufactured version of that
new transparent concrete that has recentl;y been developed. As for Fancloth and Streith, I'd say yes...definitly need weaves. a Ter'angreal makes the fancloth used in Warder cloaks so that means it needs the One Power. Streith I would imagien is the same. Fancloth is likely modiefied to mimic the invisibility type weaves I would think. -------------------- What is dead can never

I was under the impression that the Ter'angreal
produced the cloth itself and that it was made into cloaks. I'd say that
its possible to do on your own but during the AoL it was mass produced
(much like cottage industry as opposed to factory production)

Yes, the ter'angreal makes the cloth. Ter'angreal use
the One Power to perform a task, so the One Power is therefore involved in
it's making. ![]() -------------------- What is dead can never

The White Stone, such as that used on the White
Bridge in the town of the same name is called elstone. You can find a
minimal amount of information on it in the BBOBA. As to making the
different clothes I don't remember any mention of mass production. High
Fashion maybe but the sheer number of Aes Sedai it would take to mass
produce such things makes it unlikely. As far as ter'angreal are concerned
anything that can be done with a ter'angreal should feasibly be able to be
done by a channeler, the fancloth ter'angreal is the only means of making
the material now since any channeler who could do it naturally is long
dead. Of course Moridin does have a full suit of it including mask, the
Light only knows where he got it. -------------------- Would you offer your throat

So you don't think it's possible to make it naturally
then, right? Like, even a powerful channeler couldn't do it? Or is it just
that it's forgotten or something? -------------------- This is an old thing, boy. Older than Aes Sedai.

As ter'angreal are essentially Wondrous Items from
dnd, there's got to be some basis for their creation. I assume there was
once a weave that you can use to alter the properties of items, such as
turning cotton into fancloth. Look around for weaves at

I'd have to say this goes under the 'lost weaves'
category, Wolf ![]() Make a weave for it along the lines of the cloak of shadows or some such |

I also posted rules for making ter'angreal, and one
power cloth somewhere on the board, at one point. You can find them at my
WoT website, if you're interested, under the Age of legends
category. Slightly different from those in the netbook, I made them more specific to specific types of ter'angreal rather than just having one category. -------------------- Legends of Darkness Are Not Always Myths - An Ongoing

I think he's the former secretary to the Whitecloak
commander murdered by Eamon Valda. Can't remember, but he's bird-like, at least from the descriptions in the books, and has joined Perrin's entourage. |

Well, from what I remember in the book, Elyas had a
long trimmed beard, and wore that fur cap. I think he also wore more
animals skins instead of colors... |

I always thought he was meant to be Masema...but
then, I thought that what is apparently Tuon on CoT was a new character
(she looks like a 7 year old boy in a military dress uniform) that Sweet
made up. We have had a different Rand on every book cover... Darrel K. Sweet just stinks. -------------------- Slayer II The Computer OF DOOM: (Slayer-Isam&
