[edit] Appearance
She has red hair and slanted blue eyes, showing her Saldaean heritage. She was slender in her youth, but is now "a little plump".
[edit] History
She was an Accepted in the White Tower during the Aiel War when then Dragon was born and was a companion of a young Siuan and Moiraine. The friendship between her and the two girls carries on when Sheriam is raised to the shawl a couple of weeks after the other two.
She devised a clever method of breaking Theodrin 's block, and took an interest in helping Nynaeve al'Meara break hers.
[edit] Activities
Formerly, she was the Mistress of Novices under Siuan Sanche.
She was one of the original leaders of the Salidar Aes Sedai, known informally to fans as the Salidar Six.
She was selected to be Egwene's Keeper, with the intention that the Salidar Six could use Egwene to control the rebel cause.
[edit] Sheriam's Tormentor
Following her selection as Keeper to Egwene al'Vere, Sheriam began to experience regular visits from someone who beats her and pressures her for information. While this is done with the One Power, it is not clear whether saidar or saidin is being used. It may be related, from Sheriam's own thoughts, to a visit with a Sitter of the Hall. The identity of her tormentor is a mystery, though it is generally accepted that it is one of Halima Saranov, Lelaine Akashi or Delana Mosalaine, with the first two being favoured. This will possibly be revealed in the final book.
[edit] Viewing
Min had a viewing of Sheriam surrounded by Rays of silver and blue, with a golden glow flash over her head. This is similar to Logain's viewing that spoke of his 'glory' and my refer to her position as Keeper or an upcoming event.
