The idea of adding the Oath Rod is not to make all Aes Sedai bound by the
Three Oaths of the Jordan books. Those were added late in the Age of
Legends, IIRC, and if we decide to allow male channellers without madness,
we are basically saying that it is at the latest that Age. The question is
what would happen if some of the more powerful items of the Power were
added. Like the Oath Rod, or the Sword That Cannot Be Touched. Or perhaps
a'dam might be fun...

-*sighs* I know we can't have the three oaths... oh, I know what the problem is. Let's see, here it is, my sign that says "I AM NOT SERIOUS." It even comes with a little clip so I can attach it to a hat and wear it around.

I like the idea of adding Callendor. Hmm, since it can't be touched, I imagine the rule would look like this:

Callendor
There exists Callendor, the Sword That Cannot Be Touched. If a player touches Callendor, that player does not touch Callendor. If a player attempts to touch Callendor, that player does not touch Callendor. If a player attempts to cause another player, entity, or object to touch Callendor, that player, entity, or object does not touch Callendor. If someone tries to weasel around this rule, they still don't touch bloody Callendor. Stop asking already.-
