Real Name:
Tel Janin Aellinsar

Profession: Sportsman

Title: Chosen,
The Destoyer of Hope.

Sammael's utter hatred for Lews Therin has been transferred to Rand. However, his hate is a small thing next to Demandred's. He was named the Destoyer of Hope on the day he betrayed the Gates of Hevan, and carryed the Shadow down to the Ron M'doi and into the heart of Satelle.

A very good military man, he prefers to defend his ground rather than attack. If he does attack, he likes to do it with large armies and a certainty of victory. He is stronger in the One Power than Lanfear, and almost as strong as Rand . He always resented that the Power couldn't make him taller, believing that people judged him on his height instead of his abilities. He finds it difficult to think in other than straight lines.

After being released from the Dark One's prison, he had himself raised to the Council of Nine in Illian, taking on the pseudonym of Lord Brend. He leashed Graendal, and managed to disburse the Shaido from Illian to Ghealdan to crop up and cause damage and headaches for Rand.

After his battle with Rand, he is missing, presumed dead. Last seen with Mashadar almost on him. If he escaped, he used the True Power.
