Aes Sedai of the Green Ajah
Full Name - Hanamin Ivara Regatsu Aes
Sedai
Position - Aes Sedai of the Green Ajah, Captain-General of the Green Ajah
Character Summary:
The clandestine leader of the Green Ajah, Hanamin Sedai's authority is a closely held secret amongst her sisters of the Battle Ajah. Eschewing public positions of power, Hanamin prefers to lead her Ajah by proxy, chiefly through her protégé, Isolde a'Norhan. In earlier years, her dominance of the Greens was bitterly contested by Patrezya Janar. Born to a proud family of Kandori warriors well over two and a half centuries ago, Hanamin is considered one of the finest tactical and strategic minds the Tower has ever produced. Hanamin joined in the opposition to former Amyrlin, Elsbedhe Bodwell, openly defying her commands. Hanamin currently has four warders, Rendar Saristovan, Olivaer Morgaedred, Varic Stepanides and Briam Hadele.
Affiliation - Green Ajah, White Tower
Extended Background:
(forthcoming)
Hanamin has taken numerous protégés over the years, notably Isolde a'Norhan, a Murandian woman now recently installed as Sitter for the Green, and
Duriya Alhansi, the reknowned Domani Green who commanded Tower troops with distinction during the Aiel War. Hanamin has also selected two girls still in training, Maecy al'Croenes, an Andoran girl from the remote Two Rivers, beleived to have a prodigious strength and an Accepted Istella Sanche, an ambitious young Tairen.
Hanamin Sedai's Description:
A short, buxom woman, with a hazel eyes and long hair the color of sand, dusted liberally with white, Hanamin bears herself with impressive dignity, and radiates command, intriguing in a woman so small. Her large hazel eyes, shimmering with intelligence, are set in a pale oval of a face, with a straight nose and lips delicate and pink, all combined with the mysterious ageless quality that all Aes Sedai bear. Hanamin wears her long hair off her face, clipped back by an ornament of gold and emeralds, with a chain of smaller emeralds mingling with her hair it falls nearly to her waist. Her gown is spartan and austere, cut from somber gray wool in the Kandori style, with a high neck and high waist, topped by a bright green sash, with matching green embroidery on her upper bodice and cuffs working out a rolling, intricate pattern suggestive of clouds. Hanamin Sedai wears a cloak of sumptuous velvet green velvet over her dress, lined with exotic white leopard, and pinned on each shoulder by a curious pair of broaches in shape of swords, with a slim chain of black iron connecting them over her bosom.
