Sammael
Tel Janin Aellinsar was a world renowned sportsman, and was a good friend of Lews Therin Telamon. He was one of Lews Therin’s best generals, and quickly fell in love with war. Most likely it was the honors and special privileges which came with being a high ranking officer which he enjoyed the most. Tel Janin was always at his best when he was on the defensive, and the forces opposing the Shadow were often on the defensive. He considered himself a much better general than the Dragon, and resented the fact that Lews Therin had received the overall command of the forces opposing the Shadow over himself. Suddenly, during the middle of the war, he turned to the Dark One. Sammael believed that the forces of the Shadow would inevitably win; he also had a very deep hatred of Lews Therin. Sammael wore a deep scar which was given him by Lews Therin. While such a scar could have easily been Healed during the Age of Legends, he chose not to. Sammael was determined to wear it until he had defeated the Dragon. As a governor of conquered territories, his administrations were terrible. He paid no attention to the general population, and hunger and disease were commonplace. His armies, on the other hand, were well fed and taken care of. He did not want his armies to let him down when it was important they perform well. Since his release... After his release Sammael gained control of Illian, and it is believed he made some plans with Graendal. Mysterious events that took place in Shadar Logoth have led many to believe he is dead, but there is no clear evidence to support his death or survival.
