Bayle Domon is an Illianer ship captain, formerly of the ship Spray.

Contents

[edit] Appearance

He is broad and muscular, has a long beard that leaves his upper lip bare in the Illian fashion, and speaks with an Illianer accent.

[edit] Fleeing Shadar Logoth

Domon helped Rand al'Thor, Mat Cauthon, and Thom Merrilin escape Trollocs near Shadar Logoth, and has since been an active, if indirect, player in the current struggles between the Westlands, the Seanchan, and the Shadow.

He is an accomplished sailor, and enjoys collecting old things and seeing the sights of the world. He did a brisk trade along the rivers, until - in Maradon - he bought one of the seals to the Dark One's prison. Subsequently, he was chased by Shadowspawn and Darkfriends all the way to Illian. After being captured by the Seanchan, he was forced to hand the Seal over to High Lord Turak Aladon.

[edit] Tanchico

As a captain, Bayle is a formidable employer, but he makes good profits and shares them with his crew. He prefers to do all the difficult sailing maneuvers by himself, although he is confident rather than arrogant. He is loyal, helping out the needy when he can; for example, he arranged passage for Egwene al'Vere, Min Farshaw, Nynaeve al'Meara and Elayne Trakand, and later on helps them in Tanchico as well.

After entering the Panarch's Palace in Tanchico and successfully acquiring another of the seals and the "sad bracelets", he had planned to move his fleet away to a new location, and managed to leave with Egeanin Sarna, seeking to drop the sad bracelets into the ocean near the Aile Somera. However, he was forced to surrender the a'dam to a Seanchan vessel.

[edit] Fleeing Ebou Dar and marriage

Following the capture of the Spray and its contents, Egeanin was effectively promoted to Captain of the Green. Bayle, however, was taken prisoner and sold as da'covale. Fortunately, Egeanin managed to purchase him; although, this made him her so'jhin, to which he has since had trouble adapting.

After running into Mat in Ebou Dar, Domon introduced him to Egeanin; and after she agreed to join him in escaping – and also providing three sul'dam – Domon, Egeanin, and Mat escaped Ebou Dar and the Seekers by traveling with Valan Luca's Grand Traveling Show and Magnificent Display of Marvels and Wonders. Domon shaved his head to avoid notice.

He and Egeanin (now known as Leilwin Shipless) were later married.

After a skirmish with Darkfriends in Maderin Mat and the rest of his group decide to leave Luca's show. While riding through Altara they meet up with the Band of the Red Hand and begin to travel with them.
