General
Manel Rochaid was an Asha'man from Murandy. He was two years younger and a hand shorter than Rand with cold eyes and waxed and curled mustaches (TPoD, Ch. 21; WH, Ch. 22).
He was Gedwyn's second and called himself Baijin'm'hael, meaning "Attack Leader" in the Old Tongue (TPoD, Ch. 21).
Timeline
- Taim ordered Rochaid and Kisman to carry away Torval, whom he had knocked out (LoC, Ch. 42).
- When Rand chose Dashiva to accompany him, Taim advised him to rather take Rochaid or Torval. When Rand declined, Taim called to those two as well as Gedwyn and Kisman as he strode off (ACoS, Ch. 2).
- He and Gedwyn took eight Dedicated and forty soldiers to Rand and Traveled with him to Illian (TPoD, Ch. 21).
- He and Gedwyn Traveled with Rand to Illian. He searched Eagan Padros after he was killed and found thirty golden Tar Valon crowns in his purse (TPoD, Ch. 22).
- After the first skirmish with the Seanchan, he and Gedwyn stood talking apart from the others (TPoD, Ch. 23).
- He followed Bashere into the final battle against the Seanchan (TPoD, Ch. 24).
- He, Dashiva and Gedwyn attacked Rand's apartments in the Sun Palace. Afterwards, Taim acted abashed, because his men had deserted (TPoD, Ch. 29).
- Upon returning from Cairhien, Taim posted some deserters' names on the Traitor's Tree, among them Rochaid's (WH, Prologue).
- Taim, Demandred and Moridin ordered the "renegades" to kill Rand. Rochaid and Kisman were supposed to wait for Gedwyn and Torval in Far Madding, but Rochaid talked Kisman into carrying out the order by themselves. Rochaid walked through the city, followed by Rand and led him into an ambush. Rand and Rochaid fought and then Kisman attacked Rand, but instead of stabbing Rand, he accidentally killed Rochaid (WH, Ch. 22).
Miscellaneous
- Rand did not intend to show weakness in front of Gedwyn and Rochaid (TPoD, Ch. 21).
- Damer Flinn was a lot stronger than Rochaid (TPoD, Ch. 22).
- He wanted to prove himself better than Rand and intended to earn glory by being the one to kill him (WH, Ch. 22).
Quotes
"He strode across the square like a king, one hand resting lightly on the hilt of his sword, a fur-edged cloak billowing behind him in the wind. He was a fool. That flapping cloak and the sword alike drew eyes. His waxed and curled mustaches named him a Murandian, who should be shivering like any normal human being, and that sword... A pure bull goose fool." (Rand about Rochaid; Winter's Heart, Chapter 22)
