Sharing this infographic of Aiel kinship term. I am in the process of making a wiki page with all this information in more detail with clear examples. If details are not appearing well, download from the link below:
www.reddit.com/r/WoT/commen...
#TheWheelOfTime #WoTFacts #WoTSkies
This is a detailed family tree infographic titled "Aiel Kinship Family Tree" from the Wheel of Time series. At the center is "You" with connections to "Husband", "Son", and "Daughter". Above you are two “Mothers” (one biological, one adoptive/co-wife) and one “Father”. Siblings appear beside you, including “First-sister” (a full sister or a culturally bonded friend) and “First-brother” (half-brother). “Sister-wife” is a co-wife and near-sister. Below your children are “Greatdaughter” and “Greatson”. The tree extends up to four grandparents (colored orange and blue for maternal and paternal). To the left and right are aunts, uncles, and cousins: maternal relatives use terms like “Sister-mother” and “Second-brother”; paternal ones use “Father-sister” and “Brother-father”. Each box is color-coded by relationship type with seven different degrees of relationship rank and another for spousal relations. The left panel explains Aiel kinship: terms can include adoptive ties, co-wives, and strong non-blood relationships. The right panel defines “near-sisters” and “spear-sisters” as women with deep bonds equal to or greater than blood ties. These relationships are critical in Aiel society and affect social behavior and warfare. The bottom notes clarify how terms like “Second-mother” or “Brother-father” relate to co-parenting, step-relations, and Aiel customs. Many terms are culturally defined, not purely biological. This chart uses arrows and family logic to illustrate Aiel social structure—blending blood, marriage, and chosen bonds into a complex but organized kinship system.

The Sharom was a 1000ft floating sphere that was a One Power research facility. It floated without aid of the One Power above the white buildings of the Collam Daan university with their blue and silver domes.

#WoTFacts #TheWheelOfTime #WoTskies
Description as in main post. The Sharom floats in a blue sky high above the university. The university is surrounded by lush parks and gardens. In front is a long rectangular lake and a second, circular lake closer to the viewer. Painting done by u/aeddub on Reddit also found in Instagram as wot.fanart. The same as main post. The buildings are more obscured by the shape of the landscape. In the distance are low, dark hills and there are forests on the left and right edges. In the foreground, figures in farm clothes and large hats harvest wheat by hand using scythes.

Made this meme of Sammael showing "a face like a skelped erse", as they say. Fun fact, the actor is born in Partick, Glasgow, about a mile away from where I live now! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 A "pure Weegie"! 💙

Good morning, #WoTskies! Given the gap in canon on how exactly the Gray Men are created, what are your best head-canon ideas and theories? 🤔

(1/2) A general request for lore and combat specialists on #WoTskies. I'm looking at a section on the wiki that deals with combat effectiveness of Trollocs, but it's without citations. What are the odds of various skill levels to defeat such a beast?

(2/2) Bran uses them to haul away dead Trollocs in TEOTW.

Loial does not ride a Dhurran, but an unknown breed "as big and heavy as a prime Dhurran stallion" (TGH Ch. 9, TDR Ch. 6, TSR Ch. 30). It seems like a pony in comparison.

(1/2) Dhurrans are large draft horses originating from a town or region in Ghealdan (presumably of the same name). Bran al'Vere has a team of six which he hires to farmers when they require strength beyond normal horses.

A Shire horse compared to an average man. They range from 16-19 hand where each hand is 4 inches. 5'4"-6'2" at the shoulder or 163-193cm.

Getting distracted by the figure on the right reminding me of Baldrick as bridesmaid.😁 Lord Flashheart is also clearly Gaebril.😏 #TheWheelOfTime #WoTskies #Blackadder
Morgase Trakand promo picture. Bearded figure in long robes on the right-hand side. Clip from Blackadded. Thanks bridesmaid, like the beard. Gives me something to hand on to. Queenie from Blackadder. I've such a crush on him. (Flashheart) Portrait of Elizabeth I probably used as inspiration for both. The large wing-like lace ruff is pretty distinctive!
