OK, people, you heard the poll. Please send me any unique NPCs you may have. By unique, I mean only one person is like that, such as Kassendra Kohana the legendary healing Kinswoman who is quite modest, and Mrokannor, the darkfriend who uses his old Thief-Catcher contacts and wilder abilities to murder his victims.
These are different than regional NPCs (such as Aiel spear dancer or Saldaean rider), though I still want those as well.
With your unique NPCs, please leave things as simple and "core" as possible. Don't use self-made prestige classes (even if it's really cool), and limit the non-core feats (though we can have a few, there'll be a feats section). Here's an example of a unique NPC:

Karelle Talabeth

Karelle was born in Amador, mere blocks away from the mighty Fortress of Light. His father was a Child of the Light, and a high-ranking officer in that military. His mother was a good, respectable, and modest woman who stayed at home to raise her two sons. His older brother, Komeran, and he always dreamed of becoming Children of the Light, just like their father.
When Karelle was eight, a courier came to the Talabeth home. Karelle was there, and he remembers it well. The word was that his father, who was stationed south of Cairhien, was killed in a battle against the Aiel savages.
Karelle was raised to hate the the Dark, and the One Power. From that moment on, he hated Aiel as well. As he rose in the ranks of the Children of the Light, he became well known as a staunch foe to these enemies.
Soon, however, things started happening that would rattle Karelle's world. He would find himself thinking on strange messages about tactics and facts he couldn't remember the source for. He could handle that, thinking his memory was slipping.
However, one day a spy among the Whitecloaks tried to murder him, and had Karelle on his back, ready to deal the death blow. However, somehow, the man suddenly tore apart, limb from limb, and Karelle knew, somehow, he had caused it. He could channel!
He attempted suicide, but failed. Finally, he retreated into the woods for a year. During that year, he concluded that the One Power was not itself Dark. His sense of duty carried him back to service with the Children of the Light. He still serves, but keeps his secret within.

Karelle Talabeth: Midlander Armsman 6 / Wilder 3 / Noble 1; HD 6d10+12 plus 3d6+6 plus 1d8+2; hp 70; Init +0; Defense 23 (+6 class, +5 armor, +2 shield); Spd 20 ft.; Atk +8/+3 melee (1d8+2/19-20 longsword, 1d8+2/x2 heavy lance), SQ Armor compatibility, block (rage), channeling, bonus class skill (Spot), favor (1); SV Fort +12, Ref +6, Will +10; SZ M; Rep 4; Str 16, Dex 10, Con 14, Int 8, Wis 14, Cha 12. Challenge Code: D.
Skills: Concentration +15, Gather Information +14, Intimidate +14, Invert +12, Ride +13.
Feats: Bullheaded, Heroic Surge, Iron Will, Latent Old Blood, Mounted Combat, Ride-by Attack, Spirited Charge, Weapon Focus (longsword, lance).
Possessions: Longsword, heavy lance, plate mail, large steel shield, Whitecloak attire.
Affinities: Spirit.
Talents: Warding.
Weaves Known (4/3): Conjunction: Sense Shadowspawn; Elementalism: Create Fire; Healing: Rend; Warding: Ward against People, Ward against Shadowspawn.

Now, there's a new feat there: Spirited Charge, so I'd also send myself that feat, written out, rather than just let me and everyone else who reads the EH guess at what it is, scratching our heads and looking like idiots to our players. Or, I could just change the feat to something else.
The closer you can get it to the format I've presented here, the nicer for me. Any that are different I'm gonna reformat, so you'd be saving me much work.
Go ahead and just email the NPCs straight to me. Any questions, post them here! Thanks!
