General
Androl Genhald is a Taraboner Asha'man with the rank of a Dedicated. He is a square fellow with heavy eyebrows, and he wears a gold signet ring. After Logain takes most of the loyal trained men, Androl becomes the unwilling de facto leader of the remainder of the loyal faction (ToM, Ch. 46). He is trying to hide the details of his past and sometimes tries to keep the details of just how much he knows hidden (ToM, Ch. 46). Once, he has tried himself at the Game of Houses, which is an episode he doesn't want to go into (AMoL, Prologue).
He has a mild form of madness and feels that the shadows are creeping towards him every time he holds saidin for long periods of time. He is aware that this is madness due to the taint, but this doesn't stop him from believing it completely (ToM, Ch. 46)

- After Traveling into and out of the Black Tower is prevented, he has the loyal men survey the perimeter to see the extent of the problem (ToM, Ch. 56).
- He realises that Mezar is no longer Mezar. He tells Norley to have the loyal men moved into a shared barracks (ToM, Ch. 56).
- He goes to see Pevara and asks for her assistance (ToM, Ch. 56).
- While he is trying to make saddles, Pevara questions him about his past and if he came to the Black Tower out of his own free will or was recruited. When "Emarin" and Canler join them, they discuss what to do about Taim, and the rebel Aes Sedai camping outside the gates (AMoL, Prologue).
Relationships
He is one of Logain's faction and serves as a leader in his absence. Although he is probably the weakest channeler at the Black Tower, the other men on his side look up to him (AMoL, Prologue).
He thinks "Emarin" is a master at giving insults, which amuses him. He also knows that he is really Algarin of House Pendaloan, a Tairen nobleman (AMoL, Prologue).
Strengths and Talents
He has a Talent for making gateways (TGS, Ch. 5), and he can make large gateways even though he should not be strong enough to make a functional one (ToM, Ch. 46). It was because of this that he was raised Dedicated, though Logain had to go to Rand as Taim refused (ToM, Ch. 56).
He is aware that he is perhaps the weakest Asha'man in the Black Tower (AMoL, Prologue).
Quotes
"Something's wrong in this place. Something worse than you understand. Once, long ago, men and women who worked the power strove together. They were stronger for it. Please. Hear me out." (To Pevara; Towers of Midnight, Chapter 56)
