Camina Adama makes an imposing figure whenever she walks into a room. Her blonde hair, tied by a leather cord, cascades down her shoulders and down her back. A master of Daes Dae'mar her peircing green eyes see everything, calculating and storing it for future use. She is always polite, and even friendly, but there is always her underlying hatred of the Black Ajah, and all other Darkfriends.

Camina Adama was born in the Black Hills, shortly before the War of the Towers began. A small community much like the Two Rivers, in that they almost never had outsiders come there. Daughter of a meager farmer and his wife, she had been born to them when they thought that there was no more hope of having children. At her 8th birthday, they went into the village to celebrate, since that year in coincided with the Sunday Festival and also the Shearing Festival. Being so close to the Borderlands, there were frequent attacks by Mydraal and Trollocs, and one Dreadlord decided that this would be a better time to attack the villagers, being all gathered into the same place at once. A visiting Aes Sedai came having been in the village, rescued her from certain death from on of the Eyeless. Nearly all the people who had taken part in the festival were killed or left to die, and she and the Aes Sedai barely escaped with their lives, the Aes Sedai losing the life of her Warder.

The Aes Sedai then told her that she was going to the Tower to tell her sisters about this horrible attack. On the way, the sisters' curiosity got the better of her and she decided to test little Camina. It turned out that the girl could learn to channel, and manifesting so early, it seemed that she was to be strong. Very strong. She spent 7 years as a Novice, and then 7 years as an Accepted. She only spent so much time as an Accepted because of her own stubborness and willingness to play pranks and get into trouble. She knew all the little tricks of the trade, so to speak, and used them well when she was a Novice, even managing to make it out of the city twice, even if it was to be brought back only a few days later.

Being a somewhat free spirit she was going to choose Green Ajah, but because she had many Red Sister teachers when she was a Novice and they changed their stance from finding men and gentling them to hunting out Darkfriends and Policing the city, she eventually chose the Red Ajah because of her own hatred of Darkfriends. She even held the shield on Galina Casban during her trial and subsequent execution for being named Black Ajah. This took place some 20 years after Tar'mon Gaidon, and afterwards she sat in the Hall as a Sitter for the Red. She caught numerous Darkfriends, and sat as the Accuser in most of the trials. She was thought of as merciless, being able to sentence her own roommate back when she was a Novice to death for swearing to the Dark Lord. Through this she helped restore order to the Tower.

After only 10 years she stepped down and decided to retire in some back woods village growing roses, just like the legendary Cadsuane is said to have done. Not being heard from for more than 20 years, she got a letter from an old friend. After hearing about all the troubles in the Tower, she decided to come out of retirement and see if she couldn't help restore order to the Tower under the current Amyrlin, Cabriannae Mikoy. She would do anything necessary to capture those who swore to the Dark Lord. Anything at all.
