Jain Farstrider
From A Wheel of Time Wiki
Jain Charin, known as Jain Farstrider is an adventurer from the Borderlands. His adventures are well known throughout the Westlands because of the book The Travels of Jain Farstrider.
In Ebou Dar, Mat meets an elderly man named Noal Charin,[1] who accompanies him on his travels. Noal claims to have been Jain's cousin, though many fans believe he is Jain himself.
Jain Charin is credited with bringing Cowin Gemallan, called Fairheart, the betrayer of Malkier and a Darkfriend, before the Great Lords of the Seven Towers. Gemallen had been instrumental in arranging the downfall of Malkier.
Charin accuses Jain of leaving his wife to die alone while he was on his adventures. (KoD Ch. 6, end)
