and she would be a horrible negotiator.
I don't recall hearing that Reds are power hungry. That's the best description I can think of for Elaida though. Also vengeful. In fact, it doesn't seem like she was even power hungry until she started hating Siuan and Moiraine, and her reason for being power hungry was because Siuan became Amyrlin.
She's just an obsessed crazy person. I guess if she had joined the blue her "cause" would have been to bring Siuan and Moiraine down
I get your points but I do feel like most of the people with her personality do end up in the Red, even though it's never remarked by anyone that Reds are particularly ambitious.
