The Red Ajah is a division of Aes Sedai. Their mission is to police improper use of the One Power, which primarily involves hunting down mad male channelers.[1]
Overview[]
The purpose of the Red Ajah is to police the misuse of the One Power. Some even make sure that other female channelers, including Aes Sedai, do not misuse the One Power. Still, their primary purpose is to find and neutralize male channelers, who are destined to go mad due to the Dark One's corruption of saidin in the Third Age. In accordance with Tower law, they are to bring all men who can channel back to Tar Valon to stand trial, but in the late New Era, rumors began to grow that many of the Red Ajah started to illegally gentle men on the spot.[2]
They do not bond Warders, as it is seen as conflicting with their mission to find and gentle male channelers in accordance with Tower law. Overall, they have earned the reputation of disliking men most out of all Ajahs.[3]
Their leader is called the Highest. A politically savvy Highest is able to command respect throughout the White Tower as a whole.[4]
Traditionally, the Red and the Green Ajah have a strained relationship in the Tower, as they consider each other to have fundamental differences.[5]
