Character Summary - A nobly-born Tairen, the senior Brown sister Olivara Niroso leads a sedate, unexceptional life as a librarian in the great Tower Library. Within a hair's breadth of the minimum threshold of acceptable Aes Sedai strength, Olivara Sedai does possess an amazing Talent to 'read residues' and is able to easily demonstrate the weaves to others, making her an effective teacher, should she have wished it. Her talent caught the attention of Katherielle Sedai, many years ago, when the former was still an Accepted.

Character Description - A strikingly handsome figure, with dark hair streaked heavily with silver, Olivara Niroso, born long ago the granddaughter of a Tairen High Lord, bears herself with a refined solemnity, with graceful movements and a placid gaze. Tall and stately, with her hair worn in braids coiled around her head, she is dignity incarnate in her dress in the simplified Tairen style, in dark russet velvet, fastened up the side of her bodice by small ties of silk, not buttons, with a prim collar of Tuvain lace. Her eyes are dark and appraising, in a pale face, her cheeks unlined and curiously ageless. She wears several bangles of silver, each stamped in curious writing, but not her Great Serpent ring. A plain cloak of dark wool is worn over her dress.

Katherielle Dorasu: Katherielle Sedai sat on the Brown AjahCouncil for nearly fifty years, and exerted great influence within her own Ajah, as well in the Tower at large, for she was regarded as the ultimate authority of the rise of Artur Hawkwing, Hundred Years War, and the Covenant of Ten Nations. All were topics that many believed held some relevance in the tumultuous era after the Aiel War, a field of expertise which stems from her attendance while an Accepted on Aisa Harune, the last Aes Sedai to have seen the last fighting in the Hundred Years War. Katherielle later dwelt among the Sea Folk for nearly thirty years dpoing research on the voyage of Luthair Mondwin before returning to Tar Valon with chests of scrolls and palimpsests, and a new novice from the Aithan a'Miere of potentially prodigious strength. Recently, she has been dispatched to the court of Queen Ewelyne of Andor, leading a retinue of three younger sisters, to help restore good relations between the Lion Throne and the Amyrlin Seat.
