A simple piece of evidence from Demandred's POV seems to put a large hole in the Taim as Demandred theory. Demandred does NOT recognize Damer Flinn at Shadar Logoth (WH, Ch35 p644). There is no deception here as it is Dem's POV. Taim would certainl...

I know this is a pretty dumb theory, but Masema is leading a huge army(Dem was a great general), is in love with himself (like Dem). Sheinar is right near the Blight and there had to be someone with a little power to turn those Sheinarans like Ingtar...

Ok, first of all, i have no idea who demandred is. I first thought, like most people, that he was Mazrim Taim. There is so much evidence towards this theory that i was almost convinced. Listen to some desccription of the two men. Demandred has a ...

Winter's Heart seemed to go along with the Taim = Demandred thing
<br>pretty well as far as I could tell. The only thing I found odd was that if
<br>Demandred was posing as Taim he should have recognized Flinn at the end
<br>of the book. Demandred ...

We now know beyond a doubt that Demandred is NOT Taim or he would have recognized Damer Flinn. So what has Demandred been up to? Nobody ever seems to give it thought past "Is he Taim?". So, lemme have a crack at it!

When I first saw this theory, I found it very intriguing so I decided to pursue it.
<br><br>It wouldn't be very difficult for Demandred to pull this off. They're both good generals, he and Osan'gar were supposed to keep an eye on Rand.

This theory will try to demonstrate that Demandred isn't Bashere, or Weiramon, or Mesama, or Halwin Norry, or any other known characters in Randland. Why not? Because in the encounter at Shadar Logoth, not only did he not recognize Damer Flinn as a...

After reading Winter's Heart, most people are finally convinced that Taim can't be Demandred. I was one of the few people who, upon first reading the theories of Taim being Demandred, dismissed them as being paranoia. Yet, when everyone else become...

A thought just occurred to me. What if Demandred is using Taim, trapping him in a weave like the one that Sammael used to try and reach a truce with Rand? Maybe this is why the Black Ajah/Shadow wanted to rescue Taim from the clutches of Aes Sedai....

I believe Taim and Demandred are one and the same for a couple of reasons. One, they both are almost as strong as Rand in the Power, almost as tall etc. Demandred's life had been built up on these 'almosts' when comparing himself to Lews Therin, and ...
