In any case, Mat's friends are clearly fair game (Nalesean). Very major characters can [spoiler]apparently[/spoiler] die (Moiriane). [spoiler]Perin's can turn against him (Aram).[/spoiler] The most intelligent enemy Our Heroes had (Pedron Niall) is killed in a petty power play. Aes Sedai who have been long-standing allies of Our Heroes can be murdered out of hand (Adeleas [spoiler]or Anaiya[/spoiler]), or die because of overconfidence on the part of Our Heroes ([spoiler]Vandene[/spoiler]). Asha'man can die in tragic circumstances (Fedwin Morr), or in a noble self-sacrifice (Eben Hopwill).Jordan creates an insane number of characters. If the half-dozen main characters, their significant others, and two or three other people have Plot Immunity, it's not the end of the world. At least he's got a world where being a good guy isn't just a quick way to commit suicide.</blockquote>
