--Character History:
Lilian had two brothers, Jerom and Benley, and her mother and father. Her father had grown up a soldier's life in Saldea and hadn't enjoyed it much when he met Lilian's mother, who was from the Tower Rivers in Manetheran visiting relations and the like. Her father agreed to settle down and get away from the hectic life of the Borderlands to a more remote area in the Two Rivers. It took them a while to fit in but they were soon flourishing a family.

Lilian was the youngest and was put to work on the fields at a young age despite the fact that she was a girl. She constantly tried to prove to her father that she was as good as her two older brothers were when working on the field. This helped develop her very strong sense of determination. At times, when she was older, it would often overrule reason which is why she soon became frightened of it. When she visited Devon's ride she made a few friends all of whom were boys except for Chenly, a formidable little girl with a fiery temper, much like her own. Lilian was not quick to anger, in fact she was quite a hyper and happy child, but when she became angry it was much like when she became determined and she would not budge her opinion.

A few months later her father died. Benley and Jerom had already moved out and married, being so much older. It was a freak accident in the town of Devon's Ride, where bricks had slid off a roof and killed him. After that her mother had gone into a depression. They moved to Baerlon where her mother could find work as a weaver, for a woman and a little girl could not keep up a farm. When they settled there, Lilian cut her hair considerably short and immediately regretted it. Her mother had said her dark reddish brown hair was so thick and beautiful and only when the strands fell to the floor, did Lilian believe her. For a few years they lived in Baerlon quietly, Lilian made a couple new friends from her loud and happy nature, even if stubborn and strange when angered she quickly made friends.

Lilian quickly developed an interest in the White Tower and to some day move out on her own to find some sort of excitement. When she was about 15 almost 16, Lilian was managing the shop while her mother was out shopping in the market. Two men came in suddenly and tried to rob her. Unfortunately, the one power had just started to manifest itself in Lilian only few weeks before. She had been doing little things like healing a few bruises her mother got without knowing how, or moving large objects that she thought she couldn't with her own strength. She thought it had just been a normal thing and that it was part of growing up. She was proved wrong when these robbers intruded on her. In a desperate attempt to save all that she and her mother had worked for and in pure anger at these men, Lilian channeled the one power and blasted the men out of the shop. She didn't know how she did it, only that the front window of the shop lit on fire and then men broke their arms and legs.

The same day, while cleaning up, Lilian was confronted by an Aes Sedai. The woman said she didn't even need to test Lilian for she had felt her channel in the Inn across the street. The AS said she had the ability to learn to channel and would bring her back to the White Tower. In much excitement she packed her things quickly and was on her way. Her departure with her mother was rough but she managed a few promises to visit in later years and that she would take care of herself.
