Welcome to One Power Basics. This is where you will learn some fundamental weaves with each of the five Powers - the bare bones of channeling. These will be one-on-one lessons, written specificly to meet your needs while teaching you.

The class is supervised by the Mistress of Novices and Master of Soldiers.


The teachers, usually one Accepted and one Dedicated, are chosen on a rotational basis. Contact Elyscia Mordel Sedai or Anahi Asha'man if you are interested in helping teach this class.

To join the class, post to the sign-in sheet and then please post a message in which your character arrives in the private classroom in the lessons thread. Good quality of roleplay is expected, as are posts of decent length. One Power Basics is meant to meet four simply goals:

-to evaluate a student's current knowledge of the One Power

-to explain the differences between saidar, saidin and the Five Powers

-to walk a channeler through touching the True Source for the first time

-to walk a student through channeling for the first time.

If the student already knows how to channel, then they should demonstrate their proficiency by preforming a simple weave.

In order to pass this class the student must make 6 posts of 200 words each, minimum. Once a student has completed the class, their teacher will send him/her a certificate, so that it can be used as a raising requirement.


That said, this class is meant to be enjoyable. This is also a good time for the instructor to put any fears or concerns a new channeler may have about the One Power more at ease. I hope you have fun! If you have any questions, feel free to email the Mistress of Novices or Master of Soldiers

Rilyn walked down the hallway purposefully, knowing exactly where he was going-he hoped. He got to the end of that hall, and it split off in three directions. He chose the furthest to the left. When he reached the end of that hallway, he found the room he had been told to go to for his first lesson. The door was open, and no one was inside, so he walked in. He sat down at one of the desks. As he waited for his instructor to arrive, he fiddled with one of the buttons on his coat.

I hope my instructor gets here soon, he thought to himself.

He was anxious to start learning the One Power, and how to use to, so he could have the sword and the dragon on the lapels of his black coat. His goal was to be accepted into the Green Ajah, and eventually become the head of the Ajah, maybe even the M'hael one day. Starting to get impatient waiting for his teacher, he stood up and started pacing the wall opposite of where the door was. He stopped as he saw the window; it looked out over where some people were practicing the sword, most likely Gaidin in training. He was impressed at how well they handled their various weapons.

I'll have to go against some of these guys, he thought.
