Selande Darengil is a Lady from a minor Cairhienin House once loyal to House Saighan. She is the leader of Cha Faile.

Appearance

She is pale with very long dark hair and dark eyes. She is young and pretty. She is 5'3" or 160 cm. Her nobility allowed her to wear six thin stripes on the front of her coat.

After she became part of Cha Faile, she cut her hair short at the shoulder and wore a sword belted over a riding dress. She walks with a confident swagger and a calmness as if she has already faced the worst fear she could. She has a bold tilt to her head and set to her shoulders.

Activities

She is told by Colavaere to try and flirt and even bed Rand al'Thor in order to tie strings to him for her to control. Rand has an idea about the scheme and scares her off with talk about the taint of saidin and that he can channel.

She idolizes the Aiel Maidens of the Spear and begins to practice with the sword to try and become a Maiden of the Sword, even adapting ji'e'toh. She becomes leader of their "society."

Cha Faile

She meets Rand when he arrives back in Cairhien and leads him to the throne room where Colavaere had just recently crowned herself. She is still afraid of Rand but it begins to diminish around him.

Faile Bashere takes Selande and the rest of her society into her service. Selande then Travels to Ghealdan with Faile and Perrin Aybara and his army to track down Masema Dagar. She is sent in disguise into Bethal to map out the layout of the city.

Faile thinks that Selande and Parelean are the smartest among Cha Faile, although Arrela and Camaille have quicker minds.

After Faile is kidnapped Sebban Balwer steps in to control the spying network of Cha Faile. She reports to Balwer and Perrin on Masema meeting with Annoura Larisen and Masuri Sokawa. She goes through the aqueduct to enter the town of Malden before Perrin begins his attack.

Faile sends her into the Whitecloak camp to flirt with some of the men and see what information she can spy out. On return to camp she is cut by her own sword when a bubble of evil erupts.

Selande is with Faile's group during the Last Battle, and was one of those sent to the Blight. After Chel Vanin leaves, Selande takes charge of the scouts. After they are betrayed to the Shadow, Selande is one of those hauled into the air by the Black Ajah. Shortly after, fighting erupts in the Darkfriend camp. It is not known what happened to Selande after.
