Pedron Niall
From A Wheel of Time Wiki
Pedron Niall was the Lord Captain Commander of the Children of the Light. He was first mentioned in The Great Hunt but didn't make an appearance until The Dragon Reborn. He was one of the Five Great Captains. He is one of the first to realise that the Last Battle is approaching but mis-interprets that he will be the leader of the forces of good and that they will all be under the banner of the Children of Light. He commits treason by sending men to protect the Dragon in order him to create choas which Pedron will capitalise on to make his dream reality.
He enters the Royal Palace of Amadicia to place Morgase Trakand under his proection. He promises to help Morgase take back Andor with his help. He also tells her the news of Rahvin (Lord Gaebril) dying at the hands of the "false" Dragons hands. This is all part of his plan to add Andor to his rule.
He was killed by his spymaster, Abdel Omerna, on Taisham 15, 1000 NE[1]. Ironically, Omerna held the position of spymaster in name only; Niall thought the man a fool, and secretly employed his secretary Sebban Balwer in the actual role.
