Leane Sharif

Leane Sharif is Aes Sedai and Keeper of the Chronicles, the closest confidante of the Amyrlin Seat within the White Tower's guarded halls. Sharp-tongued and politically fluent, she moves through the Tower's corridors of power with an insider's ease, trusted with secrets that could unravel the Aes Sedai's careful order if exposed.

The role of the loyal right hand could easily fade into exposition, but the writing gives Leane real stakes in the Tower's hidden machinations, and Jennifer Cheon plays her with a watchful, unshowy intelligence — someone always calculating three moves ahead while appearing perfectly composed in public.
