The women need to learn what they are capable of doing. Destiny cant do that because she was taught by Nicolae so she has the skills of a male Carpathian Ahh... but chances are she'll discover something special about herself. Granted she is a hunter, but I am sure she has her own special power....

There's also Joie. Being a security expert and talented fighter, she no doubt hunts the vampire with Traian. Also, Solange might could teach some of the women to fight, because she certainly could take down those jaguar males in Dark Possession. But I have to say I don't think all of the Carpathian women should be in battle. I'm not saying their not powerful enough, it just not everybody is ment to be a warrior. Even not all the Carpathian males aren't hunters, such as Byron, who though he served as a warrior for his race, is really a gem-caller, and Dayan and Barack who are musicians, though they'll fight when they need to. It's one thing to say you can kill, but it's another thing if you can really do it, daily.

The only other thing I would point out in regards to the woman who are hunter types is you have to remember Francesca, Desari, Sindil are all 750yrs + so they've had time to develop their abilities. Natalyia though part Carpathian was only recently brought over fully and Destiny is probably about as old as Raven...(both having been Carpathian for a minimum of about 50yrs) They are all still fledglings... and need o discover where their powers lay.

Desari and Syndil out of all the women including Francesca are the Oldest, they've had time to mature what they can do. the women have unique abilities on their own.

I don't deny that Jaxon, Joie, Natayla, or Destiny don't have combat skills but they are not the true skill that will be needed.

They need to learn what they can do as Carpathian females as well

So very true. I am sure that we'll see things with them. Theres a rumor running about that CF is thinking of doing another "Group" Book... to keep us updated. At this time I do not know if the rumor holds truth but hopefully..... It would be interesting.

I think Raven is older than 50 by now. How old is Destiny?

;D You know when Ivory arrives on the scence (there's no way that bastard Draven killed her), she'll be an ancient Carpathian Female who has developed her Carpathain skills, and she'll also be an accomplished warrior, since she was taught as a fledgeling to fight by her brothers and the De La Cruzs. Can't wait to see which luckly Carpathian male gets her as a lifemate; my bet's on a certain green-eyed Dragonseeker who very much deserves a wonderful woman in his life.

If anyone gets confused, it was REDstar who posted last. I accidently didn't finish writting my name.

I agree with you on that Red. I think if Ivory was to return in the next book things would get really interesting. In terms of female combat she may be what the Carpathians need to survive. That would then make her and Francesca the oldest Carpathian females, but I think she would be the one to answer a lot of questions they would have on the way things use to be

We already know Gabriel and Lucian don't because they were always traveling.

Plus it's been so many centuries since the Carpathians have existed as a people, that even some of the ancients have forgotten the old ways. But it's understable, since if I were centuries old, I no doubt wouldn't remember all the details of my life or people, either. I definitly think Ivory as a very Ancient Carpathian woman could be a vital source of information for her people in alot of ways. But in terms of combat and magick, I remember Manolito saying that Ivory was very talented in both, for such a young age, and who knows what kind of "special" talents she might have developed since her disappearence. Personally, I think Draven imprisoned her somewhere, or maybe Xavier has something to do with not being around. Maybe that's why the Malinov Brothers are working for him, because he knows where their sister is, and he won't tell them unless they join with him.
