Green Ajah - Characteristics

Characteristics

The Green Ajah is described in chapter 23 of "The Dragon Reborn" by Alanna Sedai to Egwene al'Vere in the following way:

..."Browns seek knowledge, Blues meddle in causes, and Whites consider the questions of truth with implacable logic. We all do some of it all, of course. But to be a Green means to stand ready ... In the Trolloc Wars, we were often called the Battle Ajah. All Aes Sedai helped where and when they could, but the Green Ajah alone was always with the armies, in almost every battle. We were the counter to the Dreadlords. The Battle Ajah. And now we stand ready, for the Trollocs to come south again, for Tarmon Gai’don, the Last Battle. We will be there. That is what it means to be a Green."...

Sisters of the Green Ajah are also notable for being, in general, far more tolerant of men than other Ajahs. Some even marry—this is alluded to in chapter 7 of The Great Hunt when Leane Sedai tells Perrin Aybara that he is "almost a pretty enough boy to make me wish I was a Green."
