General
Seta Zarbey is a Seanchan sul'dam. She has yellow hair and blue eyes and is about Nynaeve's size (TGH, Ch. 45). She is a pale woman (WH, Ch. 30).
Seta was captured by Nynaeve, Min, and Elayne in Falme. Nynaeve and Elayne discovered the a'dam worked on the sul'dam (TGH, Ch. 45) and used Seta to get into the damane quarters to free Egwene (TGH, Ch. 46). Seta is left collared and found by another sul'dam, Alwhin (WH, Ch. 20).
In Ebou Dar, Seta is blackmailed into joining Mat's escape party (WH, Ch. 30). She controls the a'dam of Edesina (WH, Ch. 31). Seta shares a wagon with the other sul'dam and Aes Sedai when they travel with Valan Luca's Circus (CoT, Ch. 3).
