Talk:Catalyst

Was Wintrow really Amber's Catalyst? I got the impression that he could have been, but Amber "found" him too late. Instead, Amber made changes (proven by the change of her skin) through Althea (helping her to go aboard Reaper as a boy), the slaves (by telling them to get organized) and Paragon (helping Althea & Brashen to sail him again so he was able to meet Kennit). I can't remember Amber and Wintrow meeting for more than once which was during the negotiations after Kennit's death. (They probably met again after that too, but all the most significant events had happened at that point already.) Mervi 16:29, 16 May 2006 (EEST)

Lord Golden/Fool expresses doubts to Fitz in Fool's Errand that he had maybe chosen the wrong person as catalyst re: dragons being weak.--adamjhall 21:38, 16 May 2006 (EEST)

Yes, but who is that wrong person she chose? It's clearly not Wintrow, right? Can a White Prophet even have more than one Catalyst? Can a White Prophet work changes without one? I also remember reading (probably at Willem's board) a theory that suggested that Fitz works as a Catalyst also during the LST books because he is Paragon's face. I don't know how significant that is, though. What does it change whose face he is wearing? Could it be that Amber didn't succeed perfectly because she was trying to save Fitz from being a Catalyst again? Mervi 02:33, 17 May 2006 (EEST)

He should have been. But they never met, as she was looking for a nine fingered slave boy, which Wintrow became. I vote yes.--Sini 21:48, 16 May 2006 (EEST)

Maybe Althea should be mentioned to? Evil berry 22:59, 16 May 2006 (EEST)
