Seemingly average in appearance, closer inspection yields indecision. Her eyes seem to change color between glances, ranging from emerald green through nearly violet all the way to almost golden. Her oft-bunned hair appears black most often, yet certain lighting causes it to flare to nearly red. Her face is neither pretty nor plain nor handsome, yet somehow all three, a source of much disconcertion to others. With a temperament as mercurial as her features, it came as little surprise when this odd young woman chose the Green Ajah. Much of Jendaia's history remains obscure, and certainly no one knows what she does not wish them to know. Her strength in the Power was more remarkable before the appearance of Egwene Sedai, Elayne Sedai, and Nynaeve Sedai, not to mention those entering the Tower since. Her strengths lie in Fire, Air and Earth, and she has remarkable ability with Illusion, able to create objects, often small and hand-held, which are indiscernable from real things. These objects rarely remain very long, and her uses for this ability are vast, if closely kept. She fled the Tower during the coup, although she did not travel to Salidar, nor did she return at Elaida's summons.
She has recently bonded Kain.
