Rianna Andomeran

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rianna Andomeran is a fictional character from Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time fantasy series.

Rianna Andomeran is an Aes Sedai of the White Ajah, but also secretly of the Black Ajah. She is from Kandor, and is black haired with a white streak above her left ear. Being Black Ajah, she can lie and kill directly with the One Power. She along with Amico Nagoyin, Asne Zeramene, Berylla Naron, Chesmal Emry, Eldrith Jhondar, Falion Bhoda, Ispan Shefar, Jeaine Caide, Joiya Byir, Marillin Gemalphin, Temaile Kinderode, and Liandrin fled the White Tower, exposing themselves as Black Ajah. When they left they killed three Aes Sedai and took several ter'angreal with them. They left the Tower and fled to Tear in a complex plot by Mesaana and Be'lal to kill Rand al'Thor and obtain Callandor. Their plan was to lead Egwene al'Vere and Nynaeve al'Meara to Tear, where they were to be used as bait to draw Rand. The plan worked, and the two women and Elayne Trakand were captured. Matrim Cauthon rescued them while he aided Rand al'Thor in taking the Stone of Tear.

Joiya and Amico were caught, but Rianna and the other remaining black sisters managed to avoid capture and fled to Tanchico, in search of ter'angreal to control Rand. After arriving, they lived in a house that used to belong to a darkfriend merchant. They then gained access to the Panarch's Palace and held the newly invested Amathera captive. Unbeknownst to them, they were followed again by Elayne and Nynaeve, who had been told where they were going by Amico. Elayne and Nynaneve managed to obtain the ter'angreal before the black sisters, free Amathera and leave the palace before it was overrun by an angry mob. Rianna and the rest escaped and moved to Amador, where Moghedien took over the group that Liandrin had been leading, and sent them to do her bidding. Rianna accepted her instructions stolidly.
