Elaida's more like a Slytherin. I can't really think of any causes she has Deadsy Send a noteboard - 30/09/2010 06:20:04 AM
and she would be a horrible negotiator. White is out of the question, as is Brown.

I don't recall hearing that Reds are power hungry. That's the best description I can think of for Elaida though. Also vengeful. In fact, it doesn't seem like she was even power hungry until she started hating Siuan and Moiraine, and her reason for being power hungry was because Siuan became Amyrlin.

She's just an obsessed crazy person. I guess if she had joined the blue her "cause" would have been to bring Siuan and Moiraine down . It's kind of funny thinking back. Siuan and Moiraine are the basis for almost everything she does in the entire series. Before they came along and were mean at her she was just interested in the good of the tower. She was excited that Siuan and Mo were going to be powerful channelers.

I get your points but I do feel like most of the people with her personality do end up in the Red, even though it's never remarked by anyone that Reds are particularly ambitious.

I know... but she was still involved in the vileness *NM* - 30/09/2010 09:16:43 AM 468 Views
She thinks those that channel are unclean and have rejected the light IIRC. - 30/09/2010 08:28:43 AM 1070 Views

Funny, I always considered the Bluye as the fall-back Ajah. - 30/09/2010 06:35:18 PM 1126 Views
see, and I've always seen the Greens as a the fall-back Ajah - 30/09/2010 08:09:03 PM 1006 Views
At least I guess we can all agree that the Yellow aren't a fall-back Ajah *NM* - 01/10/2010 06:44:06 AM 567 Views
Thats because Yellows are superior *NM* - 01/10/2010 03:42:45 PM 480 Views

I think she's not a Blue because there's already an Ajah for her particular "cause. " - 01/10/2010 05:13:53 AM 1100 Views
The Red, Green & Yellow Ajah's all seem to have nothing to do - 01/10/2010 07:06:55 AM 1191 Views
They've got plenty to do, they just aren't doing it. - 01/10/2010 09:28:33 AM 1116 Views
