  • The Black Ajah of the Aes Sedai is a secret Ajah, consisting of Darkfriend Aes Sedai who masquerade as sisters of other Ajahs and who have forsaken their Three Oaths in order to serve the Dark One. Reports of its existence have been vehemently denied by the White Tower for millennia, however the mass execution of most Black sisters among the rebel Aes Sedai proves the Black Ajah does indeed exist. The leader of the Black Ajah is a very powerful woman, who sits at the head of the Supreme Council and answers directly to the Forsaken.

  • The Black Ajah is the term generally used for those Aes Sedai who are Darkfriends. Their existence is often denied by the White Tower, but they do exist. It is not a true Ajah, and Black Ajah sisters also belong to another of the White Tower's Ajahs. It is thought that they have been freed from the Three Oaths. The Supreme Council, which consists of thirteen sisters, is in charge of the Black Ajah, but they are also required to answer to the Forsaken as required. Alviarin is the current head of the Black Ajah, presumably at the head of the Council; her predecessor, Jarna Malari, was killed by Ishamael for her bungling. They are organized in groups of three called "hearts"; most sisters know only one other who is outside her heart, but some know more.

Although they are channelers, the Black Ajah does not stand higher than non-channeling Darkfriends. They have tried to assert their superiority before, but failed; despite the One Power, many Black Sisters fell to assassins, and they were forced to publicly admit they were merely the equal of other Darkfriends.
