#REDIRECT [[Takima Deraighdin]]
 
 
==General==
 
 
 
Takima is an [[Aes Sedai]] of the [[Brown Ajah]]. She was Sitter in the Hall, and after the Tower split, she sided with the [[Salidar Aes Sedai|rebels]] and was elected Sitter again ([[A Crown of Swords: Chapter 11|ACoS, Ch. 11]]).
 
 
 
She is firmly in [[Lelaine]]'s party ([[Crossroads of Twilight: Chapter 16|CoT, Ch. 16]]).
 
 
 
She has waist-length, dark hair and a dark ivory complexion ([[The Great Hunt: Chapter 39|TGH, Ch. 39]]).
 
 
 
==Timeline==
 
 
 
*Around 991 NE, Takima is raised a Sitter for the Brown Ajah in the Hall of the Tower ([[A Crown of Swords: Chapter 11|ACoS, Ch. 11]]).
 
 
 
*She is talking to a petitioner when [[Nynaeve]], [[Elayne]], [[Egwene]] and [[Min]] sneak past her to meet with [[Liandrin]] ([[The Great Hunt: Chapter 39|TGH, Ch. 39]]).
 
 
 
*She is one of the dozen sisters that crowd into the room after Nynaeve Heals [[Logain]] ([[Lord of Chaos: Chapter 30|LoC, Ch. 30]]).
 
 
 
*She and the other Sitters raise Egwene to the [[Amyrlin Seat]] ([[Lord of Chaos: Chapter 35|LoC, Ch. 35]]).
 
 
 
*After Egwene is raised, Lelaine, Takima and three other Sitters discuss how to limit the influence [[Sheriam]] has as Egwene's [[Keeper]] ([[Lord of Chaos: Chapter 37|LoC, Ch. 37]]).
 
 
 
*She follows Lelaine when Lelaine and [[Romanda]] confront Egwene to tell her that [[Delana]] intends to declare [[Elaida]] a member of the [[Black Ajah]] ([[A Crown of Swords: Chapter 11|ACoS, Ch. 11]]).
 
 
 
*Egwene convenes the Hall to tell them that she has decided to rest for a few days. Right afterward, she spots [[Morvrin]] talking to Takima, which she connects with Morvrin's task to seek out a Sitter from her Ajah, though she thought that [[Janya]] or [[Escaralde]] were more likely choices ([[The Path of Daggers: Chapter 16|TPoD, Ch. 16]])
 
 
 
*At the end of the meeting with the Murandian and [[Andor]]an nobles, she talks to [[Cian]] ([[The Path of Daggers: Chapter 18|TPoD, Ch. 18]]).
 
 
 
*When Egwene says that a question of war cannot be shelved, Janya wants to know about the correctness of that statement from Takima, since she has read about the Law of War. Takima agrees curtly with Egwene and afterward keeps silent, while Egwene goes on, hoping for Takima not tell the whole of it. She refuses to stand for the proposal of war against Elaida and breaks into tears when it is decided ([[The Path of Daggers: Chapter 19|TPoD, Ch. 19]]).
 
 
 
*She is one of the five Sitters that come up with the talks of negotiations with Elaida ([[Crossroads of Twilight: Chapter 16|CoT, Ch. 16]]).
 
 
 
*Takima votes against the proposal of allying with the [[Asha'man]] and does not even stand for the greater consensus ([[Crossroads of Twilight: Chapter 19|CoT, Ch. 19]]).
 
 
 
*[[Beonin]] sees Takima riding eastward with [[Faiselle]], [[Varilin]], [[Saroiya]] and [[Magla]], but she cannot believe they would find negotiations in Darein ([[Knife of Dreams: Chapter 2|KoD, Ch. 2]]).
 
 
 
*She is not present when [[Merise Haindehl]] and [[Jahar Narishma]] lay [[Rand]]'s offer of bonding Asha'man before the Hall. Most likely, she is still in Darein, because of the negotiations ([[Knife of Dreams: Chapter 23|KoD, Ch. 23]]).
 
 
 
==Miscellaneous==
 
 
 
*She teaches the history of the White Tower and can be as forceful in class as in the Hall ([[The Great Hunt: Chapter 39|TGH, Ch. 39]]; [[A Crown of Swords: Chapter 11|ACoS, Ch. 11]]).
 
 
 
*Egwene is certain she can recognize one of her students at a hundred paces distance ([[The Great Hunt: Chapter 39|TGH, Ch. 39]]).
 
 
 
*She remembers everything the first time ([[The Path of Daggers: Chapter 19|TPoD, Ch. 19]]).
 
 
 
 
 
==Quotes==
 
 
 
"Varilin and Takima glared at one another like two maidservants supporting their mistresses, a long-legged wading bird in a scowling match with a wren." (Egwene; [[A Crown of Swords: Chapter 11|A Crown of Swords, Chapter 11]])
 
 
 
"Takima said she thought it was the beginning of achieving the ageless look, though I don't think anyone has ever reached that until they've worn the shawl at least a year or two, sometimes five or more." (Elayne; [[A Crown of Swords: Chapter 24|A Crown of Swords, Chapter 24]])
 
 
 
"Takima likes the sound of her own voice, sometimes. She must be talking to hear herself." (Morvrin; [[Crossroads of Twilight: Chapter 16|Crossroads of Twilight, Chapter 16]])
 
 
 
"Almost as short as Nisao, Takima was a quiet bird-like woman, but she could be forceful when she wished, and with her fists on her hips she looked a sparrow in a temper, feathers all puffed out to make her seem larger. By the way she kept darting sharp looks toward Berana, the seating was what upset her." (Egwene; [[Crossroads of Twilight: Chapter 19|Crossroads of Twilight, Chapter 19]])
 
 
 
"Even suggesting such a thing puts us against all the White Tower stands for," Takima said roughly. "We would be despised by every woman who calls herself Aes Sedai, by Aes Sedai long in their graves." (Takima about allying with the Asha'man; [[Crossroads of Twilight: Chapter 19|Crossroads of Twilight, Chapter 19]])
