#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 ({{acos|11}}).
 
 
 
She is firmly in [[Lelaine]]'s party ({{cot|16}}).
 
 
 
She has waist-length, dark hair and a dark ivory complexion ({{tgh|39}}).
 
 
 
==Timeline==
 
 
 
*Around 991 NE, Takima is raised a Sitter for the Brown Ajah in the Hall of the Tower ({{acos|11}}).
 
 
 
*She is talking to a petitioner when [[Nynaeve]], [[Elayne]], [[Egwene]] and [[Min]] sneak past her to meet with [[Liandrin]] ({{tgh|39}}).
 
 
 
*After [[Elaida]]'s coup, [[Jesse]] sends Takima to [[Salidar]] as the youngest Brown Sitter ({{tgs|43}}).
 
 
 
*She is one of the dozen sisters that crowd into the room after Nynaeve [[Heal]]s [[Logain]] ({{loc|30}}).
 
 
 
*She and the other Sitters raise Egwene to the [[Amyrlin Seat]] ({{loc|35}}).
 
 
 
*After Egwene is raised, Lelaine, Takima and three other Sitters discuss how to limit the influence [[Sheriam]] has as Egwene's [[Keeper]] ({{loc|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]] ({{acos|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 ({{tpod|16}})
 
 
 
*At the end of the meeting with the [[Murandy|Murandian]] and [[Andor]]an nobles, she talks to [[Cian do Mehon a'Macansa|Cian]] ({{tpod|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 ({{tpod|19}}).
 
 
 
*She is one of the five Sitters that come up with the talks of negotiations with Elaida ({{cot|16}}).
 
 
 
*Takima votes against the proposal of allying with the [[Asha'man]] and does not even stand for the greater consensus ({{cot|19}}).
 
 
 
*[[Beonin]] sees Takima riding eastward with [[Faiselle]], [[Varilin]], [[Saroiya]] and [[Magla]], but she cannot believe they would find negotiations in [[Darein]] ({{kod|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 ({{kod|23}}).
 
 
 
*After Egwene has exposed the [[Black Ajah]], Takima asks her how many of them there are ({{tgs|45}}).
 
 
 
*She keeps her seat after re-unification and attends the meeting Romanda calls but does not stand for Egwene's proposal about how to run the war. She does stand for the proposal to give the Amyrlin and all Sitters time to attend any meeting of the Hall ({{ToM|27}}).
 
 
 
==Miscellaneous==
 
 
 
*She teaches the history of the White Tower and can be as forceful in class as in the Hall ({{tgh|39}}; {{acos|11}}).
 
 
 
*Egwene is certain she can recognize one of her students at a hundred paces distance ({{tgh|39}}).
 
 
 
*She remembers everything the first time ({{tpod|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; {{acos2|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; {{acos2|Chapter 24}})
 
 
 
"Takima likes the sound of her own voice, sometimes. She must be talking to hear herself." (Morvrin; {{cot2|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; {{cot2|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; {{cot2|Chapter 19}})
