Mora was a Wise One of the Shaarad Aiel from Colrada Hold.[1]
Appearance and abilities[]
She was almost three hundred years old when she died of a bloodsnake bite, though she still looked as young as Amys or Melaine.[2]
She had the ability to Dreamwalk and to channel strongly. Given she looked about thirty at the time she died, she would be around the same strength as one of the Forsaken. See Strength in the One Power among the Wise Ones for further details.
History[]
Mora is a somewhat legendary figure in Aiel history who was born c615 NE. Melaine says that she "heard every tale of Mora when I was a child; I have them all by heart, I think," while Bair mentions "the story of how Mora moved a mountain. Supposedly, at least."[2]
She was married at least three times.
She helped train Bair to be a Wise One. Mora told Bair that, if someone has a particularly strong emotion for someone else, they may be drawn into that person's dream against what they want while Dreamwalking, but this is very rare. It happened to Mora twice, once with the first man she married, and once with a rival for her third husband's interest.[2] This happens to Egwene al'Vere, though only Bair had heard of it happening.
She died when Bair was "still a girl", which places her death approximately 85+ years before the main events of the books. For reference, Bair is "late nineties or more."[3]
