Aeshdan he/him Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 I've often thought that there should be a "techician's Ajah", now that there are a few more people able to make angreal and such. Not sure what color would be used. In this world, I'd lean towards silver, but I don't know that that color would make sense in their world. (Kinda like our "healer" color is red [or white, depending] and theirs is yellow, our law-enforcement is blue, theirs is red, etc.) I think that would be a subdivision of the Brown Ajah (since Browns are concerned with all forms of knowledge.
Aeshdan he/him Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 I'm also curious to see what's going to happen to the Reds. Perhaps they'll become the liaisons between the Black and White Towers? I suspect the Red Ajahs (male and female) will be responsible for policing channelers, and possibly for policing everyone. Sort of a "lawkeeper's Ajah"
Shard of Choice he/him Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 I was between White and Brown, but in the end I went with White, logic is something I value, but I would definitely be good friends with the Brown. Oh and the site that has an angreal and Talent related Ajah is the Grey Tower, and its the Indigo Ajah there.
FeatherWriter she/her Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 I've always been stuck between blue and brown. Coincidentally my two favorite colors (and also what I'm wearing right now). It always struck me as funny that there was no purple, no orange, and no silver. Like those Ajahs showed up to Ajah cheer day and realized they had the only words in the English language that didn't have any rhymes. Purple and orange gave up, and silver decided to change to grey.

Maybe the purple and orange became the brown together. I think that's the color you get when you mix them >_> Or maybe they got so sick of not rhyming they founded the Black Ajah. Oh, edit: Also, I pick Green. Battle and passion, woo! Edited January 26, 2012 by nikomis
Ironeyes Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 I chose blue when I had only read the first few books, but now that I've finished Lord of Chaos, I have to say that being an Asha'man would be way cooler.
nikomis he/him Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 I have to say that being an Asha'man would be way cooler. Well, it would be preferable for me to stay a dude, so I'm in on this too. But it doesn't answer the topic question
KChan she/her Posted February 10, 2012 Author Posted February 10, 2012 Indeed. I believe I even mentioned in the OP that guys can just pretend the Ajahs apply to them as well. Or, I don't know, say you're an Asha'man and choose the Ajah of the Aes Sedai you'd want to bond/be bonded to.

Or, I don't know, say you're an Asha'man and choose the Ajah of the Aes Sedai you'd want to bond/be bonded to. Then my choice of Green sticks in both cases. Huzzah. Or maybe Asha'man bonded with Yellow. That'd be my second.
Lady_Yasha she/her Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 I see Red isn't too well loved. I'm no woman but Green would be my Ajah for the harem. Or maybe it's because they're the battle-Ajah?
KChan she/her Posted February 12, 2012 Author Posted February 12, 2012 It's not the Reds' fault they haven't had (in my opinion) many redeeming qualities/characters until rather recently. They've sort of been like the Slytherins of the Tower for a very long time when it comes to stigma and stereotype.
Gela Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 I'm an anti-conformist, so red all the way! Just kidding. I'd go with grey. I like politics and negotiation. And, odd coincidence, I also suck at them! I'm a perfect grey, whattya know.

Or, I don't know, say you're an Asha'man and choose the Ajah of the Aes Sedai you'd want to bond/be bonded to. Yeah, that's why I voted, but the Black Tower is just so much more awesome than the White, gender differences aside. I mean, who wouldn't want to spend all day blowing things up? And now that I finished the ninth book and saidin is clean, the danger element is gone, so I won't go (more) crazy!
nikomis he/him Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 And now that I finished the ninth book and <SNIP> D'aww, spoilered. That's what I get for venturing into this territory while I'm still in book 4. (No, it's okay, I've got spoilers all the way through book nine at least thanks to an old roommate)
Ironeyes Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 D'aww, spoilered. That's what I get for venturing into this territory while I'm still in book 4. I'm halfway into The Crossroads of Twilight and it's not been a major plot element so far, so I don't think I gave away too much. Now, about a certain Brown sister...
Altonahk Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 I voted even though I'm a man. I chose blue because you get to choose your own cause. The blue take up elements of all the Ajahs, but are focused on their own thing. Not sure what my cause/mission would be, but I like that I could choose one. Again, I'm a man so there are certain surgery/soul-migration things that would be necessary.....
Aeshdan he/him Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 The OP states that we're assuming Asha'man have the same Ajah structure.
lil_literalist he/him Posted May 4, 2012 Posted May 4, 2012 (edited) I voted for Red, because why not? Nobody else has, so far. Someone has to be red, and they're the ones that get to bond Asha'man. I mean, it's cool for you Green Ajah to have warders who are master swordsmen and all, but reds get to have warders that can manipulate the other half of the One Power! Unless we're talking about pre-Rand times. Then forget everything I just said. Green all the way. EDIT: I love how I have the option to delete my vote in the poll. Also, you should reread my post in Cave Johnson's voice. Edited May 4, 2012 by lil_literalist 2
Nya Ellir she/her Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 Apparently in RL I am very much a Blue. Because I'm very involved in everything and always know stuff. :lol Strange enough on Dragonmount.com I'm a Red and a Yellow on TarValon.net
Deoradhan Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 Either Grey, Brown, Green, or some mixture of all three, for me. I love history, enjoy the challenge of politics & negotiation, and happen to have a lifelong interest in tactics. That said, the Asha'man Green Ajah would likely be very entertaining, due to all the pretty explosions... Eh, the wheel weaves as the wheel wills. I'll make no further comment.
dj26792 he/him Posted December 16, 2012 Posted December 16, 2012 It was a tough choice for me, I could easily have chosen Blue or Brown and could even fit quite easily into White if not all the members are as incapable of reason as some of the Whites we've met, although I think I would find the White Ajah frustrating because nothing annoys me more than people who think so logically that they become blind to the people around them and all the people like that would end up in the white Ajah and probably make up the majority so maybe I would really hate the white Ajah too. Anyway, I picked Green cause if I had to be bonded by any Aes Sedai as an Asha'man Green would be the best fit, and the choice between blue and green and brown for myself was going nowhere.
Voidus Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 Brown, I already sit around reading giant books all day, only difference is I'd get paid for it. life goal achieved right there.
theravenchilde she/her Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 I suspect the Red Ajahs (male and female) will be responsible for policing channelers, and possibly for policing everyone. Sort of a "lawkeeper's Ajah" yes hello we are the wizard cops and I am very proud to take up this mantle of justice and the prevention of magical abuses and tomfoolery, So yeah, proud Red. So Red. Much Wizard Cop. Very Justice.
