Masema Dagar

From A Wheel of Time Wiki

Masema Dagar was once a Shienaran soldier who later became the Prophet of the Dragon. Previously regarding Rand with barely disguised contempt, he witnessed Rand's fight with Ishamael and appearance as the Dragon Reborn at Falme and started treating Rand with a near religious fervor. He abandoned the other Shienarans shortly after and preached the Dragon Reborn all the way to Ghealdan, settling there and triggering civilian unrest. When Nynaeve found him in Ghealdan, he had become the leader of a sect, asking his followers to abandon everything and follow the Lord Dragon. He virtually ruled Ghealdan.

Later, he and an army of his followers joined Perrin's army in the pursuit of the Shaido, but was secretly working with High Lady Suroth, a known Darkfriend. After Perrin Aybara]] forms another alliance with the Seanchan, he aids Perrin to defeat the Shaido and rescue Faile at Malden. At the end of Knife of Dreams, most of Masema's "army" is dead or wounded due to a severe disadvantage against trained Aiel.
