Csethiro Ceredin

Daughter of the Marquess Ceredel; great-niece of Arbelan Drazharan; eventual wife to Maia Drazhar and Ethuverazhid Zhasan. She is scholarly and has considerable skill with a sword. She writes a very good secretarial hand but signs her name in the barzhad warrior alphabet.

She has vivid blue eyes the same color as Arbelan Drazharan's and white skin. She is "not at all pretty, her nose too long and her chin too weak." Her voice is deep for a woman's. She is twenty-two, three years older than Maia. She has four sisters.
