**Egwene Kindleaf** (also known as **The Lady Snake**) is Erlin's older sister.

## Bio

Egwene is Erlin's older sister, and her parents died in the War Against Asmodeus. She and Erlin are cared for by their grandmother, Nana Kindleaf.

She was previously a Green Teen, but graduated before anyone else in her class, becoming the youngest ever Green Knight and taking the moniker The Lady Snake. As a Green Knight, she was often forced to attend executions in the fulfillment of her duty, and was there alongside Beverly when he witnessed his first execution.

## Description

Egwene is an older teenager (described first as 19 and then as 17, and then 19 again) and a halfling. She wears a helm in the shape of a snake's head, which has fangs in its jaws and covers her face. She has bangs, smokes cigarettes, and curses frequently.

Described as a "mean teen", she sees Beverly and Erlin as dweeby kids while also caring for them deeply.

## Role in The Story

#### The Galaderon Saga

Egwene first appears when The Boobs use Rosaline to scry. She is seen questioning Derlin as to the location of her brother, using force to shake the answer out of him.

She appears again at Bev's house, firing two arrows into a guard from Bev's balcony. Moonshine and Beverly assist her in protecting Beverly's house, and they share a moment of calm after defeating The Chosen who were attacking.

While they recover inside the Toegold Residence, they are attacked by a Chosen airship, which everyone is able to escape, thanks to Egwene carrying her brother to safety. She and the group reconvene with Hardwon and Ol' Cobb, and she helps them fight their way to where they eventually find Ulfgar. She is present for the ritual that sends Beverly Sr and the Green Knights to the Feywild, and escapes Galaderon on the SS Stormborn.

After putting distance between the group and Galaderon, Egwene decides to go with the other halfings and Uncle Red to Hill Home on their airship. She decides that she'll be more useful being security for those she'll be traveling with, and parts ways with The Band of Boobs.

#### On The Road Again

Egwene appears again briefly when The Boobs return from Shadowfell. She is still aboard Red's ship, and greets them alongside Erlin once the group catches up to them. She comes down to greet them with enthusiasm, but quickly switches to a "whatever" attitude. Moonshine praises her skills on the battlefield, which Egwene is clearly flattered by.

After Beverly and Erlin have the difficult conversation about Bev's kiss with Terran, Moonshine gifts Egwene a thousand gold pieces to use to help the efforts in Irondeep. She mentions that they're going to Irondeep, and are taking the Lord Mayor of Hill Home with them. They're going to see what the damage is there, and bring messages from Hill Holm since the war is truly starting. Before leaving, she talks to Beverly about what had happened with Erlin, and tells him that if he wants to be with Erlin, he has to commit to it. She also takes the graphic novel Beverly had bought for Erlin from him and promises to give it to him.

#### The Hellfire Chronicles

Egwene fights the Juiblex alongside Ol' Cobb, Unlce Red, Gunther, and Erlin in order to defend Iron Deep. Once Maz Al'thul Teleports Beverly and Mavrus in to help them, she becomes suspicious of Mavrus's relationship to Bev.

After the Juiblex is defeated, and Maz is proven to be a traitor, Egwene helps a badly wounded Uncle Red back to the ship after fending off a group of enemy soldiers.

#### The Chosen Saga

Egwene meets up with Beverly again, who breaks the bad news about Erlin being captured by Pestilence. She attends the ceremony to resurrect Gunther, where she drinks alone out of her discontent for Erlin's imprisonment. Later, before the Boobs leave to fight Thiala, Egwene pulls Beverly aside and tells him that, even though she desperately wants Erlin back, he should not sacrifice himself to save him.
