Gemmels most dangerous/deadliest character

[tarantio]

Who, in your opinion, was Gemmels most dangerous/deadliest character in any of his books and why? Is it Waylander...Druss...Decado...Tarantio...Skillganno n...Connovar...???

And who was the best swordsman?

[Allanon]

Druss, and every character that heard of him or met him would agree with that, he is after all The Legend

Swordsman ill have to get back to you, but my first thought goes straight to Skillgannon.

[sanityassassin]

this is a very difficult question to answer as for the best swordsman I would probably go with either Tarantio or Decado. I think for the deadliest I think I may go for Jon Shannow

[drosdelnoch]

To be honest I wouldnt like to bet on things,
Druss perhaps the greatest warrior, Decado the greatest swordsman, Shannow the greatest Duelist and Waylander the greatest assassin. If they were to go head to head, not sure who would walk out, without weapons, more than likely Druss, with weapons then its a free for all dependent upon who was taken out first.

Always bring a gun to a sharp pointy thing fight. Ergo Shannow.

[Allanon]

not read any shannow books yet but surely the gun are a cop out. i much prefer fights with "sharp pointy things", i think waylander's crossbow is as close to a gun as i would go.

[the_faery_queen]

decado i think. and maybe waylander. he's more deadly because he could sneak up on you. in a fair fight, druss, but i think waylander wouldn't get to that position, he'd take you out before hand. *shrug* i also like him more than druss.

Well for me it is a toss up between Waylander and Druss but I have only read the Drenai tales and I recently found out I have yet to read

Hero In The Shadows

White Wolf

The Swords Of Night And Day

I shall look forward to them.

But yeah as I said Druss or Waylander.

[tarantio]

Decado was better than Skillgannon (swords of night and day)

[Allanon]

how do you know they didnt fight each other!! plus Skillgannon always steps up to the plate

[sanityassassin]

I would say Decado would beat Skillgannon if it came down to it

[Torpian]

Druss is the greatest warrior in my opinion. The best swordsman would be Dace or Decado - its hard to say which. Most deadly would be Waylander, due mostly to the range he has to his advantage. I wouldnt put Shannow in the same category due to the fact he uses a gun. Although Viruk uses a zhi bow and he'd be pretty lethal as well.

[Leonida]

Decado the Ice Killer...every time.

[drosdelnoch]

That still leaves the question of who would be the greater though, decado the Ice Killer, Warrior Priest, or Decado the Reborn?
