General

Indirian is an Aielman, and the clan chief of the Codarra clan (TFoH, Ch. 2). He has one wife (ACoS, Ch. 18). He lives in Red Springs Hold (ACoS, Ch. 18).

Egwene describes Indirian and Mandelain as tall, massive, graying men with hard, sober faces (LoC, Ch. 24). Indirian has heavy white eyebrows and a long nose; although he is of only average height for an Aielman, shorter than Rand by half a hand, everything about him seems long. Rand thinks to himself that the heat of the Waste appears to have melted away every spare ounce of flesh and more; his cheekbones stand out sharp and his eyes are emeralds set in caves. His voice is deep and rich (ACoS, Ch. 18).
