General

Sleete is a warder to Hattori, an Aes Sedai of the Green Ajah. They have been bonded for over 10 years. He is a blademaster. His skill is near legendary in the White Tower and he once even bested Lan Mandragoran in a couple of bouts.

Sleete is long armed and has rough features, including a cleft in his chin and a crooked nose. He has long dark hair and sideburns. He is a man of few words. He is a man of duty.

After being injured at Dumai’s Wells, Sleete recuperated in a nearby village that hid him from bandits looking for survivors. Once Sleete was restored to health by the Mayor’s daughter, he repaid the village by hunting down and killing all the bandits. It is rumoured he had to leave the village in secret as the girl had developed feelings for him and he had some feelings for her.

In Dorlan, Sleete spars with Gawyn and loses. After, he approaches Gawyn about becoming Hattori’s second warder, as he finds Gawyn worthy. Later, he watches Gawyn prepare to leave the village and talks with him but doesn’t try to stop him.

After the Tower has been re-united, he helps Gawyn search Kateri Nepvue's rooms after the sister is murdered by a Bloodknife to see if the killer left any evidence behind. He finds black silk, which he takes to Seaine (ToM, Ch. 5).

He takes Leilwin and Bayle Domon to Nynaeve (AMoL, Prologue)

He fights alongside Gawyn in Kandor (AMoL, Ch. 18).
