Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is the last name of Cadsuane?

Answer: Melaidhrin

A living legend amongst Aes Sedai, Cadsuane Melaidhrin is one of the most powerful and eldest Aes Sedai in existence. She has made it her mission to teach Rand al'Thor some manners.

2. What is the last name of the Whitecloak Jaichim?

Answer: Carridin

A Whitecloak Questioner, this man is also a Darkfriend, a fact discovered by Mat Cauthon in Ebou Dar.

3. What is the last name of Aviendha (sept and clan)?

Answer: Nine Valleys sept of the Taardad Aiel

Aviendha's sept and clan is stated a number of times, first when she met Elayne and Nynaeve on the banks of the Erinin, as well as in caemlyn, when Elayne introduces her sister to the High Seats of supportive houses.

4. What is the last name of the Lady Dyelin (also the name of her House)?

Answer: Taravin

The High Seat of House Taravin, Dyelin was strongly favoured for the Lion Throne by many of the Andoran Houses, but she has thrown her support behind Elayne. She still likes to wear the Oak and Owl of her House, though.

5. What is the last name of the folk hero Jain?

Answer: Farstrider

One of the most popular books is "The Travels of Jain Farstrider", in which Farstrider documents his journeys and adventures all over the world, even into Shara. Farstrider is the name he is commonly known by, but is actually recorded as Jain Charin.

6. What is the last name of the General of Elayne's Palace guards Doilan?

Answer: Mellar

Doilan Mellar is not who he pretends to be, attending meetings with the Lady Shiaine, and indisputably a Darkfriend. Mellar is not his real name, and nor is Daved Hanlon, another pseudonym he uses. He considers names to be "like cloaks, and a man wears many cloaks".

7. What is the adopted name used by Birgitte?

Answer: Trahelion

Birgitte Silverbow, flung out of Tel'aran'rhiod by Moghedien, adopted the name Trahelion, one she remembered froma previous life. Now separated from the Wheel and her beloved gaidal Cain, Birgitte is gradually losing her memories of her past lives.

8. What is the last name of the Aes Sedai Samitsu?

Answer: Tamagowa

One of the Aes Sedai in the Sun Palace in Cairhien, Samitsu is one of the most proficient Healers around. No surprise, then, that she is Yellow Ajah.

9. What is the last name of the Aes Sedai who bonded Rand against his will, Alanna?

Answer: Mosvanni

Not held in high regard for her actions, many people who know of the bond believe that what Alanna did was little short of rape, if that. However, there have been some negative side effects for Alanna, icluding passing out for some time when Rand was bonded with Min, Elanyne and Aviendha, as well as being shunned by her sisters.

10. What is the last name of the usurper to the Amyrlin Seat, Elaida?

Answer: do'Avrhiny a'Roihan

Something of a long name, it is the style in Murandy to have names like this. Doesn't excuse her for her crimes, though.
