Moad is a man of the Atha'an Miere and Harine din Togara's Swordmaster. He has gray hair and hard eyes. The first time we see him he wears five fat little earrings in each ear (ACoS, Ch. 34) and later eight ones of the heaviest weight (WH, Ch. 23). It cannot be said if this indicates a lower rank than before, since the first point of view is Rand's, who has no clue about Sea Folk hierarchy, and the other one is Shalon's.

General

Moad is a man of the Atha'an Miere and Harine din Togara's Swordmaster. He has gray hair and hard eyes. The first time we see him he wears five fat little earrings in each ear (ACoS, Ch. 34) and later eight ones of the heaviest weight (WH, Ch. 23). It cannot be said if this indicates a lower rank than before, since the first point of view is Rand's, who has no clue about Sea Folk hierarchy, and the other one is Shalon's.

He is widowed (WH, Ch. 23).

According to Shalon, Harine lets him get away with a lot more than she would others, but she probably owes him that because he is her Swordmaster (WH, Ch. 23).
