Edited New Character
Avatar: Sengir_Grandmamama Name: Sain Gullorac of the High Plains sept of Goshien Aiel Race: Aiel Nickname: None (or Aiel Savage to the wetlanders razz ) Age: 19 Priorities: 1,3,5 (Channels sai'din, master of the bow, wolfbrother) Weapon(s): Bow and arrows, spears, big belt knife. No buckler. Description: Yellow eyes, crimson hair, bronze skin that's usually covered under his cadin'sor. His cadin'sor has long sleeves, so his arms are covered, and his hood is always on. His shoufa is under his top so it doesn't get caught in battle. Leather top, bottom, and shoes basically. Sain wears the symbol of the ancient Aes Sedai on his head in the form of a headband. History: Sain is the son of an unknown spear maiden. He was never popular among those of his age because of his yellow eyes. He does not know the significance of this facial feature, and has yet to find out. He has never met anyone like him before, and has never left his settlement. That is, until the Car'a'carn came and broke his people. Now, he's sworn to follow and protect his chief of chiefs. He does know, however, that he has the ability to channel from early on in life. A mishap, that resulted in the accidental death of his brother. Now, Sain is afraid to channel. Perhaps a guide will help him overcome this fear. Sain is skilled with the bow since other warriors do not care for him joining the spear users in the frontlines. Presumed dead, Sain was abandoned on a battlefield and woke to see fallen companions all around him. Those who survived must have been in a hurry, since the Car'a'carn rarely left his followers unburied. Disoriented, Sain had trouble recalling where he was.

NEW CHARACTER Avatar: Alina_i_am Name: Der'sei ( in old tounge Master eyes) Goran Race: Saldean/Aiel Nickname: Des Age: HOW RUDE!

Her hair is dark brown ringlets which is a strong contrast to her eyes. she has the small nose of an Aiel. her skin is to fair to be taken for Aiel but to dark to be taken for Saldean. Her mouth is always smiling whether she is happy or not. this makes her a very warm person. People like to talk to her becuase she is a good listener but also becuase she has a very musical voice which people like to hear. People like to make her laugh becuase her laugh warms people. although she is a very sweet person, she ahs a very dark and secreitve past. History: when Der'Sai's mother was young she would dream of meeting these so-called savage Aiel. she did not belive them to be so. so she traveled to Tar Valon durning hte time of the begining of the Aiel War. a young Aeil Red SHeild found her near dragonmount just staring at it. she did not know who, or what, he was so she said to him, "look at this place. this is the place where the dragon will be reborn, and the second breaking will begin." he looked at her and said "the Car'a'carn will be born here." she looked at him and said, "you are Aeil?" he nooded and she replied "you dont look so bad." they fell in love with each other and thus Der'Sai was born. but before she was born her father died. Der'Sai's uncle killed him.as she got older her mother would tell her of her father. Her mother tought her the ways of the knife and the Aiel spear. before Des left for the Tower her mother gave her a single spear and said "this was the spear in which i gave to your father after we wed. use it well. and always remeber your Aiel haritige and when the time comes for the Car'a'carn to come, fallow him." soon after her mother died. Des always remebers her heritige and she prefers to be called by her full name, becuase it is her Aiel name.

New Character
Avatar: Mith-calen Name: Karene Anridro Nickname: none Origin: Shol Arbela, Arafel Age: 30 Priorities: 1/4 (Listen to the Wind, or Cloud Dancing as it is also known) Weapons: Karene has a very basic knowledge of how to use a dagger to defend herself thanks to her upbringing. She is also well-skilled in using saidar.
Appearance: Karene is slightly taller than average for a woman, being five foot eight inches with an average sort of build. Her skin is a creamy shade of white where it shows, which is not in many places. Those who are close to her, such as her twin and close friends, know why she does not show more of her skin than she has to. Her back is full of scars, as are her legs and chest. One of the scars she cannot hide is the one that runs diagonally across her left cheek. She keeps her dark brown hair cut to her shoulders and never wears bells in it, despite being an Arafellin. Her eyes are an extremely pale shade of green, at times they almost appear to be white.
History: Karene has a twin sister, Kielna Alkiri, whom she did not even know until she was thirteen years old. For the first thirteen years of her life, Karene was raised by a band of thieves, robbers and bandits. She knew how she had come to be imprisoned by them before she knew how to speak properly, for they made no secret of it around her. When Karene had been two years old, or so, the band had attacked her family on their way to Shol Arbela from their farmstead and killed everyone except for Karene. And, as Karene learned thirteen years later when she escaped, her twin Kielna.
The young woman was never treated like part of the group, but rather as a slave to do as she was bid without questioning. If she did question, then she was beat. If she did not do it exactly right, then she was beat. Only one bandit, a man named Anridro, treated her as though she were an actual person. He cared for her and rubbed salve on her wounds every night, although even he could not stop the beatings and taunting. He did provide her with some measure of protection, however, never once allowing any of the men to rape her. Anridro told Karene stories of the land and even thought her the rudiments of reading and writing. Why he never left the bandits she never understood. If he had then he could have taken her and raised her as a proper daughter, lived a proper life. Karene was twenty before she forgave Anridro for never doing that? before she forgave him for being killed in a raid when she was thirteen years old.
After Anridro died Karene learned what it was like to be a true captive of the bandits. It was during the following seven months that she gained the majority of her scars, such as the one on her left cheek. And deeper, psychological scars that took years to heal. But one night, after a successful raid that left the entire band drunk and Karene more than half-dead, she managed to get away. She cannot remember much of that time and no one was ever able to determine just how long it took her to reach the place where she found Kielna.
From Her Diary: The first thing I remember is waking up on something incredibly soft. And I was warm, actually warm even though the sun was not shining on me. I opened my eyes and saw that there was a roof over my head and actual walls around me. It took my eyes a moment to adjust to the dim light, but once they did I realized why I was so warm and comfortable. I was in a bed, covered with thick blankets. My wounds were bound and covered with balm, my hair cut and brushed. And there, with her eyes closed, was a young woman who looked like a clean version of me. Although all I had ever seen of myself before were glimpses in water. Bandits had no need of mirrors, especially not for me.
She woke up and gave a start when she saw that I was awake. When I saw her eyes I felt like something that had been missing inside of me, something that had always called for me, was suddenly there. ?Kielna,? I whispered, my voice as rough as it always was. I never had the opportunity to speak much so my voice had never developed as well as it should have. Somehow I knew that her name was Kielna, it was as though I had always known that.
?Karene,? she whispered in reply, her voice more polished than mine, not as rough. She reached out hesitantly and took my hand in hers. I was shocked at the motion, even as I was soothed by it. No one had ever touched me when it did not hurt in one way or another. ?My mother knows you,? she said quietly, stroking my hand gently. ?She thought you? dead with the rest.? There was a catch to her voice and I felt a lump in my own throat. Memories of what the bandits had always spoken of, the murder of my family, flooded me. How could this be? How? ?You?re my sister, Karene? somehow.? I broke down then, sobbing.
When Karene and Kielna were sixteen years old they were discovered by an Aes Sedai traveling through Shol Arbela. That was when they went to the White Tower to begin their training. They were alike, even as they were different. Kielna made friends easier than Karene, who was shy and still struggled with speaking at times. But by the time five years had passed, both were ready to be raised to Accepted. Another four years passed by and both were deemed ready to be Tested for the shawl. Kielna went first and chose the Green Ajah, as Karene had known she would. Then Karene went? and she chose the Red, as everyone had always known she would.
((I'm going to have more written on her soon, only I'll put it up somewhere else and link it here so that this post isn't overly long.))

character like it was when I left, but probably some things are changed, edited
Avatar: Mirren
Name: Mirren
Race: I never thought of this one, but it has to be near the mountains, since they were in my accepted test uhm ... Andor! (Me be stubborn, please let me teach the rocks) oh no, that doesn't fit wwith my history, mountains near the aiel desert please. That was it, Ciarhien. Within a few days of the Jangai pas, on the edge of kinslayers dager.
Nickname: none
Age: 18
Priorities: 1/4
Weapon(s): the One Power
Description: Mirren looks exactly like me in real life. Long blonde hair almost reaching her hips, nearly always in a simple braid down her back. She hates wearing it so that it can get in her face. Her eyes are weird, you would think they are grey, but if you look her deep in the eyes you can see they have more blue-ish (sp) stripes and weirdly they grow greener every day. Her face is plain, a pleasant face to see, but not to die for. Her skin is white, and doesn't turn brown very fast, only after working outside for a long time does it get a teint. She always wears her accepted dress, but thanks to her height, 1.77 meters, it is kinda short. Somehow the tower didn't have one single dress long enough for her, but she doesn't really mind. When she's not wearing her accepted dress she likes to wear trousers and a wide shirt.
History: Mirren found out she could channel after Azelea Verde passed her village on her way to the Aiel Desert. She told her that she should go to Tar Valon, that she was a wilder. This was quite a shock, she had never know she worked with the one power. She only knew seemed to know a great deal about the rocks, which later turned out to be one of her talents (don't know how it is called, Egwene has something like it to if I remember correctly, and it fits in nicely with my study (partly geology)). On her way to Tar Valon she met Shiah, an banned Aiel man. Somehow she managed to bond him as her warder, and started to like him to much according to her accepted test (3rd entering married with children living in an Aiel village). Please note: I do not know wether this realation ship is still alive (accepted - warder) I will change or confirm as soon as I hear from him. Shiah left the tower, but if the RP asks for him, I'll RP our bond. In the tower she somehow got into big trouble, without playing pranks. Appart from being hunted down by one particular brown Aes Sedai (Benwain) who wanted to test her talent and write a whole series about it, so it seemed. Her bonding was not really something the Aes Sedai were keen on. Even so, she was tested to be accepted after a not so long time as novice.
as explanation for my long depart I'll rewind a bit. I can't understand how I remembered this, but I did.
One day as she was bringing the mail to the Amyrlin she noticed there was a letter adressed to her, from her family. SHe hid it and later read that her mother was very dissapointed that she had not turned up on her sisters burial. Mirren got immensly angry on every the Amyrlin and all other Aes Sedai for keeping the death secret to her. To tople the parting of her sister (Annisea) it had happend just the way as it happend during her test for the ring. Mirren felt that it was the fault of the Tower that her sister had died, because she was the only one who could have gotten her sister out of the rockslide. After much talking of her mother she has decided to return, but not with great gladness ...
Rank: 3th if this is also for accepted

New Character
Avatar: Rintala
Name: Rintala
Race: Ciarhien
Nickname: Rintala
Age: 38
Priorities: 4/6/1
Weapon(s): Rintala's one and almost only weapon is the longsword she wears belted at her waist. The blade's edge is razor sharp and has a slight curve to it. It appears to be something more akeen to a saber then a longsword, despite it's thickness and length.
Description: Rintala's blonde hair is cut short, short enough to to be mistaken for a young man despite her slender build. Her blue eyes are keen and sharp, though they were also slightly pained. A pained expression seems the only mask she is able to hold on her face. Handsom, rather than pretty, Rintala's quiet nature and dangerous grace give her the appearance of a wild panther being held at bay by a length of thread.
Normally Rintala can be found wearing baggy breaches, and loose fitting blouses. It wasn't because she enjoyed the way they looked on her, infact she looked slightly silly wearing them, but because silk dresses didn't exactly fit with her sword on her hip. Her flat footed boots serve her a lot better than any Aes Sedai slipper, or tavern hussy heeled boot.
History: Rintala's history are of humble origins. She was no great warrior, nor was anyone in her family great. She was a peasant girl...and her father a peasant man, her mother a peasant woman. At the age of 10 she took to playing knights with the local village boys. Of course she was always stuck to being the princess, or some equally useless role...but she always yerned to be something more. After several more years she began to notice some things...they were odd things really. If she wanted something badly enough she suddenly found what she wanted. One day a house in the village caught fire, and despite every ounce of will she possessed she knew she couldn't help...but after a few moments the flames lowered and eventually flickered out. She had no idea she could channel, but a traveling Aes Sedai had noticed this little flicker of the One Power in her and gently persuaded her to travel to the Tower. Still not knowing she could channel she did agree, but only because she saw this Aes Sedai's warder. Graceful, powerful, and beautiful. The man himself was attractive, but the way he moved, or danced rather, with that sword was beauty beyond measure. That day she swore that she would go to the tower one day and learn! Now, after years of home practice with the sword, she's finally ready to become a warder.
