Big shock here, right? Yet another mention of that Legend of the Seeker show on FactPile. While I obviously watch all the shows as they air, I’ve always found it interesting to get other people’s perspective on the same thing I just watched, and perhaps even gain some new ideas I hadn’t thought of before.

The Hope Has A Warrior blog does an excellent job of accomplishing this and is one of my destination spots shortly after watching an episode.

So take a moment to stop over if you need to get caught up or are looking for some cool information you might have missed!

So, as most of you all know, I am a huge fan of anything Legend of the Seeker. But, even I know when one of my favorite characters doesn’t stand a chance, and given who Rahl is up against, I doubt he’d find a way to win.

Even placing this match in Rahl’s world, I’m not sure there is a scenario where he could pull off an upset victory.

What say you?

I know some of the video quality isn’t that great, but whoever put this together has some hardcore editing skills. On an unrelated note, right now for some reason in Google, this site is #3 if you search for “Richard Rahl” (no quotes). While it’s certainly fun and all, I’m a bit perplexed as to how the site got there. Not complaining, just sayin!

For this match, we are using the Richard Rahl from the Sword of Truth series, whereas Vin arrives from the Mistborn trilogy. While on the surface this might be a close match, I just don’t think Vin has enough to overcome Rahl’s magic, and experience using the Sword of Truth.

Here we have perhaps one of the most evenly matched battles to ever appear on FactPile. Both fighters are proficient with bows, both are excellent using the blade, and they can each wield magic. This is a tough match for yours truly since Link is one of the best video game characters of all time, and frequent readers here know that I am a total freak about the Sword of Truth/Legend of the Seeker franchise.

So dear reader, who wins this fight?

UPDATE: Check out this great summary from Teesee, who runs a great Legend of the Seeker fan site.

UPDATE 2: Forget about any kid version of Link. Use the Twilight Princess Version for this match.

Here we have an interesting battle that has a pair of father and son teams. This battle takes place in a wooded area, similar to Endor. All combatants are aware of each other, and are only temporarily helping each family member. For the sake of this match, both Darken Rahl or Darth Vader are not pursuing their respective sons.

Which team will win?

Here we have a match that would be fun to watch in the sense of a total curb stomp on the part of Kahlan. Sure, Xena might get in a few blows, but at the end, only the Mother Confessor will be left standing.

Here we have match that we might see in the near future for all who watch the Legend of the Seeker series. But until then, this forum will have to do. While Denna is certainly one of the top-tier Mord-Sith who worked for Darken Rahl, methinks she won’t be able to take on Cara. Eliminate the need to protect Lord Rahl, and based strictly on skill, I believe the victory goes to Cara.

Making his debut on FactPile is Darken Rahl from the Legend of the Seeker/Sword of Truth show/series. For this match the powers of each character are from the books that they appear in. With that being the case, I can’t see how Voldemort will last very long…

What say you?

Ok, so I’ve come to realize that I have a problem. First, check out this link to a funny recap of the latest episode named “Broken”. (opens new window).

As you might have noticed, there have been a lot more Sword of Truth/Legend of the Seeker posts popping up on FactPile. I know there are a few fans like AHEM that probably don’t mind, but I also feel like I am perhaps taking the site down a path that most aren’t really interested in. So, I’ve acquired a killer domain that suits this particular interest of mine – WarWizard.com. I am seriously considering launching a fan site of sorts that focuses only on that series and for the most part keep most of my rants about that over on that site. To be honest, it will take away some time from FactPile. so, I now ask you, dear reader, what would you prefer – to continue to see the potentially frequent postings/matches with characters from this universe appear on here, or see a very reduced load and concentrated focus over at WarWizard?

Let me know in the comment section of this post.

Thanks!
