Gabrelle Brawley is Aes Sedai of the Brown Ajah. She sided with Elaida when the Tower split (WH, Prologue).

Gabrelle was one of the fifty-one sisters sent to destroy the Black Tower. She was caught by the Asha'man and bonded by Logain. She decided to sleep with him to gain more information to help her escape (WH, Prologue). When she and Toveine learned that Logain was to leave the Black Tower, Gabrelle convinced him to let the two sisters go with him (CoT, Prologue). They Travelled to Cairhien to collect the Warders of the sisters with Rand. From the Warders they leaned where Rand was and Travelled to Tear (CoT, Ch. 24). Once there, Logain threw his lot in with Rand and Gabrelle was forced to do the same (KoD, Ch. 19).

Gabrelle has green eyes and an upturned nose. She is tall (WH, Prologue).

Quotes

"Toveine, it took me two days to decide I should "surrender" to his lusts, as you put it. I feel lucky it only required four to convince him to let me. You Reds might not be aware, but men love to talk and gossip. All you need do is listen, or even pretend to, and a man will tell you his whole life." (Gabrelle to Toveine about Logain; Winter's Heart, Prologue).

"It was almost laughable. The man held her prisoner, yet he was ready to do violence to defend her reputation?" (Gabrelle about Logain; Crossroads of Twilight, Prologue).
