in gotm he used tellan to release raest.

in MoI (or was it bonehunter ?) his sister, who was a bonecaster said she ran from him, because he was
too powerfull for her.

so, was he a mage of sorts ?
can tellan still be used by him, or is it sealed to the remaining imass ?
and regardless, shouldn't he be able to use telas or other warrens ?

he is the first sword, it grants some powers, also it would not be a big strech that most t'lan Imass can use tellan to an exstent, (ie not batte, but maybe some cantrips)
i want to see this world where T'lan imass kneels

The GotM Tool was a hell of a lot more powerful than the T'lan Imass seem to be later on in the books. He had a magic killing warren that stretched across half a continent.

Maybe being a First Sword grants special abilities or maybe it's best to just not think too much about it.

Thanks for reminding me that "cantrip" is a word and that I wanted to look it up some time.

like traveling in dust form?
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Maybe it's not a spell, but a spell-like ability, or innate ability, that T'lan Imass get at 1st level.

Hetan - there's a little bit of wound left here that you didn't rub salt into yet...

Don't worry, the Barghast don't wind up being a cheesy stand-in for Israel.

But in all seriousness, if you aren't done with the book yet you should avoid the DoD forum till you finish.

'Can you defeat it, Tool?' Lady Envy asked.
The T'lan Imass turned to her. 'I am clanless. Weakened. Lady, unless you can negate it, we shall have to cross as best we can, and it will build all the while, striving to deny us.'


Tool no longer has silverfox drawing on his lifeforce, and he's found a clan of t'lan imass of sorts. Keep in mind, this is lady envy asking tool to manage sorcery beyond even her capabilities. Lady envy.

In MoI Tool specifically says that they use no warren when they turn to dust but just revert to the state they would have been if the Ritual had never taken place.

I second the confusion. What does Israel have to do with Bargast?
If there were no smart people others wouldn't feel inadequate.

Right?
