Cei'arna Ridalin was taken off the streets at the age of 12 and made a tavern dancer and prostitute by a man called Sifern Ghiran. She has endured much injustice from men, and many unspeakable acts have been preformed on her by men, giving her ample cause to despise men. She has no problem what so ever with taking away a male channeler's power and causing him to sink into deep depression it has been speculated that she greatly enjoys gentling men.
She learned that she could channel when she was 19 after she caused a pile of bricks to fall on Sifern in a fit of rage at what he had done to her and let other do to her.
She fled his tavern and made for the fabled White Tower of famed city Tar Valon, seeking a home and instruction in saidar, and vengence.
She stands just below 6 feet tall and weighs about 120lbs. She has coppery skin and is dark of hair and eye.
Her strongest weave is Air, then Spirit, then Fire, then Water, then Earth. She can make gateways, travel Tel'arian'rhiod, and do almost anything requiring Air.
