Whoa! This makes a lot of sense as far as describing
Haran. I think this is way awesome. Although, wouldn't the Challenge Code
be increased by 2? You're adding weaves, weave resistance, and damage
reduction to creatures that are already quite powerful without those
things. Shaidar's quite imposing. He bosses around and intimidates

I like the idea of the enhanced Shadowspawn, but
don't think it reflects Haran that well...Haran is completely unique since
he is literally the Hand of the Shadow. In some manner he is, at the very
least, a direct receptacle for the Dark One's power and he wields the True
Power. I'd make him waaaaaay more powerful, since he can kick Forsaken
around when he wants to. But I do think the template is pretty cool all
the same. ![]() -------------------- What is dead can never

shaidar haran in the novels only used a little pne power and i figured the conjunction talant would blend nicely with the whole master aspect of him but maybe shaidar haran has ranks in initate as well giving him more weaves and such but the forsaken are channlers and he can ressit the one power making him very hard to compell or otherwise tamper with making the forsaken large hp peasonts to him so ya he can still kick there asses in this respect even without adding lv in initiate but i did anyways becuase it would me pure power and rather like fun to see what would happen to him still balefire would kill him in one hit but then again balefire kills everything.. did some one say cuelendar Black plate or was it just me This post has been edited by Niveus on Jul 8 2004, 12:48 AM -------------------- ![]() | ||

Shaidar Haran can deny followers of the Shadow (at
least) the ability to channel. I don't know about you but when a True
Power (not one Power) wielding Fade, who can deny me (as a Forsaken) from
touching the One Power, let alone the True Power...and appears to be
literally some sort of incarnation/avatar/power receptacle for the Great
Lord of the Dark himself....I'd be very afraid. Plus all this alone makes
him impossible to do up as a character. It's like making stats for Gods in
DnD, completely pointless. (Yes I know some settings do have stats for
gods, and they are killable, etc but that is different heh.)

Heh, Shaidar Haran, Superfade. I loved that description of him. -------------------- Playing: Jahar Enaubrim "Mr. de Ayora! Why is it that you persist?" "Because... I just don't like you!" Luke de Ayora, "Zion Rave", The Matrix Has You. -bomb- sent you. The cruelest punishment that the Great Lord of the Dark could impose on Rand is to make him the star of his very own comedic anime, and give him an all-female cast. |

I love this, its great...one criticism, though. I
think to the nature of what gholam are (one power feeders) they should not
be able to channel. That's just inherently broken, in my
oppinion. Otherwise, I like this a lot! I cant wait to through something like this at my characters! ![]() -------------------- Legends of Darkness Are Not Always Myths - An Ongoing

I always got the impression that shadar haran never
used the one power, only the true power. |

I don't think Shadar Haran uses either. He's got some odd abilities, but it doesn't seem similar to either anyone's channeling or Moridishy's use of the True Power. -------------------- | ||

Maybe they can just have the ability to cut people
off from the One Power. Does Shaidar actually USE the True Power, or does
he just cut people off? Or, maybe gholams, as beings unable to be touched
by the One Power, cannot channel simply for that reason.

SH has definitely cut both men and women off from the One Power (though he's never done this with anyone not sworn to the Dark One), and has produced some sort of odd black flames. Nothing that's convention channeling, or even True Power-esque, IMO, but pretty hard to come up with mechanics for. -------------------- | ||

It would be more like the Myddraal ability to teleport in the shadow. Aginor killed a lot of Myddraal trying to determine how they did it, but didn't manage to figure it out: it's just a special ability that hasn't anything to do with the OP or the TP. I see SH's powers much the same way. They are special abilities the DO gave him, and cannot be understood by means of channeling. | ||

Maybe they don't get the ability to channel, but
maybe they get a weave-like ability granted by the DO. Maybe the
weave-equivalent level could be based on HD or something, and the higher
Charisma they have, the more abilities they get. I dunno.

I removed the whole Channlers aspect of the enhanced
shadow spawn and gave them dark powers instead but if u prefer the old one
i will put it back i have both saved maybe Gohlam and Mryidrall get the
dark powers all other shadow spawn get the true power This post has been edited by Niveus on Jul 14 2004, 11:01 PM -------------------- ![]() |
