I am genuinely interested in people and what makes them tick, even though Healing as such is not necessarily one of my stronger traits, when it comes to people. I do tend to do a lot of Reiki for pets/animals.

Nynaeve would be the obvious choice there, but I also like Samitsu Tamagowa. The fact that the Yellow Ajah in the books had the lowest concentration of Black Sisters always gave me a weird sense of satisfaction

It was fabulous, had so much fun, met so many new people, some of them are still good friends in real life now.

I joined in October 2003 if memory serves :)

I was randomly picking up books at a book fair as they were going cheap (this was in the Dark Ages before Kindle) and already nearly doubled over under the weight of what I had picked up, when my eyes fell on a book with the colourful cover of The Eye of the World. It immediately sparked my interest and to this day I'm glad I decided to add it.

I picked up the first book in the series almost by accident, not knowing anything about it or the Author, the cover just appealed to me. Then I started reading and found that I couldn't put it down, the story was amazing and I was instantly lost in this incredible Fantasy world that was being created through the words on the pages. Ran to the nearest bookstore as fast as I could to get the other books that were available then (think it was everything up to book 9) and have been a major fan of the series ever since.

When were you raised to Aes Sedai of the Yellow Ajah?

Omg.. Can't remember! O_O June 2004 I think.

Why did you choose Yellow?

Because of some fabulous Yellows that made be want to be Yellow too. It was a bit of a surprise really, because I was leaning strongly towards Blue all through "Novicehood" and even as an Accepted, but the women I tended to talk to most were Yellows and they were/are fantastic.

Are you like the Yellows in the Books? Do you care for people and love to heal things?

I think we all have some of the aspects of the characters from the books. As Yellows go, I'm probably less of a "Healer" in the traditional sense of the word, but I am a Reiki master and it's important to me to care for people and try and make them feel better and happy.

Do you have a favorite Yellow Ajah character from the novels?

Nynaeve would be the obvious choice there, but I also like Samitsu Tamagowa. The fact that the Yellow Ajah in the books had the lowest concentration of Black Sisters always gave me a weird sense of satisfaction

How long have you been a fan of the Wheel of Time series?

Since I picked up the first book at age 14 or 15, which, for me, was a while ago

How did you first get into the series?

I was randomly picking up books at a book fair as they were going cheap (this was in the Dark Ages before Kindle) and already nearly doubled over under the weight of what I had picked up, when my eyes fell on a book with the colourful cover of The Eye of the World. It immediately sparked my interest and to this day I'm glad I decided to add it.

Who is your favorite "hero"?

Lan *nods" I guess every man wants to be him and every woman wants to be with him.

Favorite bad guy/gal?

Hmm...the one I hated the most was Eamon Valda.

Lord of Chaos is the best one imo. The scene where Moraine gives everyone letters before confronting Lanfear, it always gets me.

I would be a Wolfsister, giving Nyneave a run for her money with Lan and him someone to spar with

How did you find TarValon.Net and what convinced you to stay and become a Senior Member?
