- Jacelain sur Eiron: A young, excitable Green sister, Jacelain sur Eiron seems haughty and arrogant even for an Aes Sedai, for her family groomed her as a possible successor to First Aiman of Mayene, who was the last of his line. When Lady Lilaine was named First of Mayene, Jacelain had her hopes dashed. Lilaine's Aes Sedai advisor, Maesling Tenly of the Grey Ajah, encouraged Jacelain to travel to Tar Valon as a means of removing a political rival from the Court of her charge. Upon arriving in Tar Valon, Jacelain was capable of learning to channel, and ultimately she chose Green. Since that time, she has earned the scorn of many of her sisters, who are put off by her supercilious and demanding manner. She is barely able to control her hatred for Maesling Sedai, and Simoene Alvaewin, a sister of the White Ajah, stemming from some trivial incident during their time as novices together. She is believed to control a sizable network of personal informants, and is known to be bursting with ambition. Jacelain is bonded to one warder, whom she has married.
