Hi, again! So, I should probably be checked out for having an addiction to rpgs, and characters, but since I haven't been, have Kahlan Amnell! She's from Legend of the Seeker and the Sword of Truth novels by Terry Goodkind. She is the Mother Confessor. In the Midlands, that means she can touch someone, (the show always has her do it on someone's neck, but I don't remember them specifying it in the books) and when she does, love for Kahlan consumes them, and it's all they can think about. She can also tell when someone is lying. She is the head of all the Confessors, but there are no more, because the big bad, Darken Rahl, killed them all. She went to go to Westland, which was cut off from the Midlands by the boundary. It's a magical force field, to keep people out. She got across with a night wisp named Shar. She got to Richard Cypher, and his grandfather Zedd, who is a Wizard of the First Order. In fact, he's the First Wizard because he is the only one of the First Order.
Her canon point that I am bringing her in from is actually an alternate universe within the show. The Mord'Sith are women, who wear red leather head to toe, and they torture people to get information for the current Lord Rahl. When Darken Rahl dies in season one, Richard becomes the current Lord Rahl. On the show, he's Darken's brother, but in the books, he's his son. Anyway, Cara Mason was a Mord'Sith who acknowledged that Richard was the true Lord Rahl, so she began traveling with them. In the last few episodes of season 2, she is kidnapped by Darken Rahl, who has been given a new lease on life courtesy of the Sisters of the Dark, nuns who are the foes of the Sisters of the Light. They break her again, (what it's called when you are trained to be Mord'Sith. They take girls when they are children.) and attacks them. Richard wants to save her, and Zedd mentions this spell that he can do to try and reverse the effects. He casts the spell, and it works too well. It takes them to an alternate reality in which when Richard won against Darken Rahl in the first season, he got the power of the Boxes of Orden. That would have been a bad thing, because no one person could hold all that power. Kahlan Confessed him at the same time, and it tempered the power. The reason this happened was because Cara was never made a Mord'Sith, so she wasn't present to do her part the first time. Richard and Kahlan are able to get married because her power doesn't affect him, he is still able to remain himself. Zedd is wanting to put the universe right, and Darken Rahl gains power again, and gets Richard, so it's important. Kahlan and Zedd go to put the spell on Cara again, and the other Mord'Sith kill her before they can. That is the point that Kahlan is coming in from, wishing to get away.
I am up for anything plot wise, and I'm going to put up an open thread for Kahlan. XD.
