Kithra Doran, Aes Sedai of the Green Ajah and newly returned Keeper of the Chronicles to Lila Sedai, Amyrlin Seat, was born in Camail, a fair sized and independant village south of Shienar. Her father was a blacksmith of good repute, a plain, but fair and honest man and her mother was Shienaran by birth, who left her own home and family to be with the man she loved.
Of the five children born into this close knit group, only 3 survived. One sister was killed during a Trolloc raid, while both brothers followed their hearts and and went to Fal Dara in the hopes of joining the Lancers. One perished during the many patrols sent to scour the surrounding area of Shadowspawn, a Fade's poisoned blade taking his life. The other continues his rise through the ranks.
Kithra first felt the stirrings of the One Power just after her 13th name day. For three years she tried to hide both from herself and her family the changes which crept upon her. One cannot hid from one's fate however, and hers was soon rudely thrust upon her. While returning home one evening from an errand to a home on the outskirts of her village, Kithra was set upon by three wanderers who had come through the village. Living with two brothers and amid a harsh terrain, she had never considered herself defenceless until that very moment. Fear, terror and anger combined within her, and any barriers she had raised came crashing down. Not knowing what she was doing, nor caring, so long as it freed her from their animalistic and lewd clutches, she lashed out. The flows of Air were meant to throw them off, not kill, yet even so, one of the men died of a broken neck, while the other two stared in shock for a moment before running off, cursing about wilders and Tar Valon witches. No longer could she keep the changes secret. Her parents, saddened and yet somewhat proud, sent their beloved daughter off to Tar Valon with a merchant's caravan soon after.
Through many years of training and learning, she was raised to Aes Sedai, and chose the Green Ajah, the Battle Ajah, following in the footsteps of her closest friend from their Novice days, Lila Sedai. Without a Warder, but armed with determination and her quarterstaff, Kithra often roamed the land with one or another of her Green sisters, aiding those they could with whatever skills they possessed and forever on the lookout for Shadowspawn.
Time goes on, and changes come are wrought on all. During an excursion into the Threefold land, Kithra met with two men who would eventually be closely bound to her. Asha'man Dahn al'Daer, DaiShan of the Black Tower and Gangorn Gaidin both came to bear a bond to the lithe, strawberry blond Aes Sedai. Darkfriends, madness and even the eternal suspicion between those who channel Saidar and Saidin could not bow the stubborn Kithra, but the wrenching disappearance of Dahn al'Daer during his travels through the Ter'angreal at Rhuidean almost cost the Aes Sedai her life. To this day, a shadow weights upon her, for although that bond has vanished, she still sometimes wakes sweating at night with the scent of wet leather and the dazzle of blinding colors. None knows the origins of these nightmares, but Kithra eventually formed a theory which may unfortunately never be tested.
Through changes, both for good and bad, Kithra and her Warder Gangorn Atramion continue to fight for the Light and the Tower, mourning those who've passed from their lives and cherishing the firm and fast friendships made along their journeys.
