  [Source]

Lord Ingtar of House Shinowa was a Shienaran nobleman, who served under Lord Agelmar in Fal Dara. Ingtar was also a Darkfriend of considerable influence.

[edit] Appearance

When introduced to Rand and his company when they arrived in Fal Dara he was described as a short, dark Shienaran warrior, head shaved except for the topknot, wearing armor and a yellow cloak. His clothes prominently displayed his personal sigil, the Gray Owl, and the stooping black hawk of Shienar.

[edit] Activities

Like most Shienaran Lords, Ingtar was well educated in matters of history. He was rather pessimistic about mankind's chances. The endless war with the Blight and the vast stretches of land unclaimed by any nation made him change his allegiance to the Dark One. Later he regretted that choice and saw the pursuit of Padan Fain and the Horn of Valere as a way to redeem himself. He asks Rand if any man who walks long in the Shadow can't walk in the light again before holding the Seanchan by himself to allow Rand and crew to escape. He was apparently killed at Falme in 998 NE.
