Hello again, No Exits. I'm Ashley. I was here some months ago, and after another few months of rl kicking my ass I'm finally getting back into rp. And I'm bringing a new-to-me character along for the ride.
This is Moiraine. She almost always chooses to leave off her house name. I am using Rosamund Pike as a pb, but I've chosen to take her from the novels because I prefer the pacing and the way the story unfolds.
Being unsure how familiar people are with either books or show, Moiraine is basically a 5'2" powerhouse, ageless in appearance, who likes to shut people down with a look. In front of others, she's typically unshakable Aes Sedai calm. She gets described a lot in terms like 'silk over steel' and 'made of ice.' She can be very coldly practical, a soldier in her own way according to Lan. True to the nature of one of the Blue Ajah, she's devoted her life to a cause and cares for little else beyond seeing it through to the end, no matter the cost.
She was born with the ability to touch the True Source and is technically a wilder, having learned to channel before going to the White Tower, and until recent recruits, she was among the strongest in the use of the One Power. As of right now, she still possesses that level of ability and also an angreal capable of allowing her to draw much more of the One Power. She's particularly skilled at Healing.
Typically, only other women able to touch the Source would be able to see her channel, but I'm going to say anyone with magical inclination is probably capable of seeing it here. There's a sort of glow when she embraces saidar, and the weaves themselves are visible as well, though they might be a bit quick to see in their entirety if one doesn't know what they're looking at/sensing.
It's worth noting she's bound by the Three Oaths and cannot break them. These include:
1. To speak no word that is not true
2. To make no weapon with which one man may kill another
3. Never to use the One Power as a weapon except against Darkfriends or Shadowspawn, or in the last extreme defense of her life, the life of her Warder, or another Aes Sedai.
