General

Talmanes Delovinde is a young Cairhienen lord who is a Lieutenant-General in the Band of the Red Hand (KoD, Ch. 26). He is shorter, even shorter than Daerid and young, just a few years older than Mat (TFoH, Ch. 43). When Mat first meets him, he is dressed plainly and reminds Mat of a coiled whip (TFoH, Ch. 43). He also takes on the soldiers style of shaved and powdered front of the head (LoC, Ch. 5).

When presented with a map showing the Aiel, he studies it and Mat carefully (TFoH, Ch. 43). He maintains this cautious observant nature, and later, keeps an eye out for raken even though he has only heard of them (KoD, Ch. 26). Even before meeting Mat, he was a good enough commander to judge the outcome of the skirmishes with the Aiel and to adjust his way of thinking to take account of how quickly they moved (TFoH, Ch. 44). He also brokers a deal with Roedran, to pose a threat to Murandy so Roedran can unite the country behind him. He gains sufficient coin from this to pay for the band for a whole year, even at its vastly increased size (KoD, Ch. 25). He also gets a copy of Comadrin's Fog and Steel (KoD, Ch. 26).

His banner is a black fox and his con three yellow stars on blue
