Elyas Machera was a Warder who learned that he was a Wolfbrother. His wolf name is Long Tooth in reference to the long knife he wields.
[edit] History
Elyas was a Warder to Rina Hafden, now a Sitter of the Green Ajah. He also trained Lan Mandragoran to be a Warder, and it was at some point after this that he became a Wolfbrother. After being held by the Red Ajah -- who thought he was using the One Power, and whom Elyas unwisely accused of being members of the Black Ajah -- he killed several other Warders and escaped. The deaths of the Warders are something he still regrets.
Like all wolfbrothers, Elyas is able to talk and communicate with wolves, but unlike other wolfbrothers such as Perrin Aybara, he lives with wolves, shunning humankind.
[edit] Recent events
After Perrin and Egwene escaped from Shadar Logoth, they met up with Elyas who informed Perrin of his ability[1]. Elyas stated that he had been following the pair for two days, and it is likely that both he and the wolfpack with which he travels were drawn to Perrin due to the latter's potential for brotherhood. He also gave Perrin advice regarding his axe, suggesting that he keep it until he enjoyed using it, and then throw it away. They later meet up with some Tinkers and although very corteous with them, Elyas is quite reluctant to be around them due to the Tinkers adversion to violence.
After an attack by Whitecloaks[2], Elyas was injured and Perrin and Egwene were captured. Elyas turned up much later at Perrin's camp in Ghealdan and joined his band.
Elyas helped Perrin free his wife Faile from the Shaido Aiel.
