Ogier are a nonhuman race. They are very tall (adult males
average 10 feet, slightly less for females), have long tufted ears and
broad noses. Ogier live in steddings, which are areas where the One Power
does not work or have any influence. Usually, they do not leave steddings
willingly, if they leave for too long they sicken and die. Ogier are slow
and pacific people and do not anger easily. Humans they consider hasty.
Of course, Ogier do live at least three or four times as long as humans.
and pacific people and do not anger easily. Humans they consider hasty.
An Ogier of seventy is young. Ogier love knowledge and do not pass up any
opportunity to study. Their books contain information and stories lost to
humans. Often they use ancient names of places in their speech, also
forgotten to humans. The Ogier have interesting marriage customs. All
marriages are arranged by the mothers of the parties. The man has no say
in his marriage, and the woman very little. Often they do not even know
each other before marriage.

Ogiers are great stonemasons. Most of the great cities of the
world are Ogier-built. The Ogier also built the Waygates, and are now the
only ones who can act as guides in the Ways. Most humans have never seen
an Ogier, for they rarely leave the steddings. Many think Ogier are
legends. It is said, though, that Ogier hate trollocs, and assisted
humans in Trolloc Wars. Some Ogier have a special talent called
treesinging. Indeed, the Aiel call them Treebrothers. Ogier love nature
and trees.
