General

Gray Men are also called the Soulless (TDR, Ch. 15).

Most Gray Men are indeed men but a few are women (TDR, Ch. 15).

A Darkfriend gives up his or her soul to the Dark One to become a Gray Man (TDR, Ch. 15).

Gray Men do not dream (TDR, Ch. 36).

Warders and Aes Sedai cannot sense Gray Men like other Shadowspawn; Perrin can smell a Gray Man (TDR, Ch. 42; Ch. 43).

Lanfear claims not to make use of Gray Men (TSR, Ch. 9).

Appearance

They appear like normal human beings but you can look right at them and not notice them at all (TDR, Ch. 15).

Uses, Purposes and Talents

Gray Men are used as assassins (TDR, Ch. 15).

Appearances in the Series

  • Ingtar lets a Gray Man into Fal Dara; the Gray Man attempts to kill Rand but misses, but wounds Siuan Sanche and kills another man instead (TGH: 9, 46).
  • Sheriam finds another Gray Man, a female, lying dead in her bed without a mark on her (TDR, Ch. 29).
  • A Gray Man attacks Mat in Tar Valon, but Mat manages to escape (TDR, Ch. 30).
  • A Gray Man attacks Rand while he is talking to Lanfear; he is one of four who managed to get by Rand's Aiel guard. Rand manages to sense the Gray Man and kill him. Lanfear denies sending the Gray Man (TSR, Ch. 9; Ch. 10).
