# Moiraine Damodred · the Blue who spent forty years on one cause

*The Wheel of Time — Robert Jordan*

## The operative
An Aes Sedai of the Blue Ajah and a princess of Cairhien, Moiraine spent two decades secretly hunting the newborn Dragon Reborn, spending her life and Power without hesitation to set Rand al'Thor on his path. She walked into the ter'angreal doorway to face the Eelfinn to save him, was presumed dead for years, and returned for the Last Battle.

## Doctrine — blue: the Cause
turns devotion and justice into action — defends a cause by going on the offensive for it, for as long as it takes.

## Why she is the strongest — AVAN
Moiraine is patience as a weapon — a forty-year game against the end of the world, never flinching from the cost, including her own life. Defensive offense at the scale of decades: she defends the whole Pattern by attacking fate itself, one boy at a time.

## Why she is the strongest — ROOT0
