General
Gray Men are also called the Soulless as a Darkfriend gives up his or her soul to the Dark One to become a Gray Man (TDR, Ch. 15). Most Gray Men are indeed men but a few are women (TDR, Ch. 15). They do not dream (TDR, Ch. 36) and unlike other Shadowspawn, Warders and Aes Sedai cannot sense Gray Men; Perrin can smell a Gray Man (TDR, Ch. 42; Ch. 43).
Lanfear claims not to make use of Gray Men (TSR, Ch. 9).
