In Pearls of Lutra, BJ never tells us why Ublaz has that creepy hypnotic stare. None of the other two pine martens, Ashleg or Atunra can do it, nor can real pine martens. —This unsigned comment was added by 99.17.211.157 (talk • contribs) 23:57, June 21, 2013‎. Please sign your posts with ~~~~!

I did not even find anything in a legend, fairy tale or otherwise stating that martens (any kind) have an hypnotic gaze - that was my assumption when it was not revealed in the book why Ublaz has this power: maybe there's a legend pretty much unknown in my country, but better known in Great Britain, or countries affiliated with Great Britain (Canada, Australia etc.).

And why did Ublaz even keep the snake? He did not drag it out from the dungeon to the open skies on a regular basis so everybody could see how he bends the snake under his will; first I thought he needs it... maybe he needs to get bitten by the snake on a regular basis to keep up his powers (or at least drink a sip of the venom every now and then). At the end I was a bit disappointed that we don't learn much about Ublaz' rising. I mean, his power is pretty much one of a kind, and it was stated he was but a mere corsair in his younger seasons, so... he was not born with it. 2, maybe 3 sentences, mentioned casually from Ublaz to Sagitar... and I would have been contend--Risa Fer-Rat (talk) 11:20, May 6, 2017 (UTC).
