Moad din Nopara Red Hawk is an Atha'an Miere, and the Swordmaster to Harine din Togara Two Winds.[1]
Appearance[]
He has gray hair and hard eyes. He is more white-haired than Harine. He is 5'10" or 178 cm tall. He has five rings in each ear.
In Far Madding, he wears a quilted blue coat that he uses to protect him while sailing the coldest seas.[2]
He wears an sword in his belt and a dagger in his sash, both with an ivory hilt, as signs of his office as Swordmaster.[3] Also a mark of rank, he uses a two-tiered red-fringed parasol.[4] When Rand is on the White Spray, he wears baggy trousers of green silk. [5]
History[]
He is a widower.[2]
Shalon din Togara Morning Tide is surprised that he knows how to ride a horse, an uncommon skill among the Atha'an Miere.
Harine gives him so much leeway as Swordmaster that anyone who didn't know would have thought them lovers.
Activities[]
Mat spies Harine and Moad on the deck of their ship as it heads down the River Alguenya towards Cairhien.[4]
He is present when Harine receives Rand as the Coramoor aboard the White Spray in Cairhien, although he is not present during the Bargain.[5]
He accompanies Cadsuane Melaidhrin and Harine to Far Madding to find Rand al'Thor. On entering the city, he is hesitant to hand over his sword to be peace-bonded as it is a sign of his office.[2] As a man, it is not considered appropriate that he enter the Hall of the Counsels and so he is left behind when Harine is received by the Counsels.[6]
After leaving Far Madding, he stands guard over Min Farshaw and Harine during the Battle near Shadar Logoth.[3]
