The Wheel of Time Season 3 introduced a new channeler and she is more than meets the eye 

Prime Video's The Wheel of Time Season 3 premiered March 2025 and is shaping up to be one of the most action-packed and lore-heavy seasons yet. The latest chapter kicked off with a dramatic moment in the White Tower, where Liandrin’s secret is exposed.

She proved to be a Black Ajah member, a nefarious group of Aes Sedai who work for the Dark One. With Nynaeve present during the revelation, this results in a confrontation between Liandrin and her allies versus those opposed to them.

The Wheel of Time Season 3 also highlights other prominent storylines, such as Rand's journey to the Aile Waste with Moiraine, Lan, Egwene, and Aviendha. Since he's the Dragon Reborn, Rand must understand the past and his role in the world.

Recently, the ongoing season has revealed Bode Cauthon as a secret channeler, which has major implications for the story. The channeler seemed like an ordinary background character, but her ability to use the One Power suggests she is far stronger than expected.

As seen in The Wheel of Time Season 3 Episode 5 "Tel'aran'rhiod" Perrin arrives to rescue Mat's sisters Eldrin (played by Lilibey Buitanaseva) and Bode (played by Litiana Biutanaseva). However, before the rescue, the sisters ended up in trouble during which Bode uses a powerful burst of magic on Dain Bornhald, proving her potential is real.

Who is the new channeler Bode in The Wheel of Time Season 3?

As seen in the latest episodes of The Wheel of Time Season 3, Egwene has begun her training for Dreamwalking while Moraine is determined to find out how Rand will succeed in his mission. One of the major turning points in the season involves Moiraine and Lanfear’s scheme to push Rand and his companions out of Tar Valon.

They wanted to protect Rand, but everything goes horribly wrong after Dark One sends an assain to kill Nynaeve. This turn of events leads the character to transform and adjust to the situation at hand.

Episode 5 also includes Mat's two sisters, and Bode is a great channeler. She is the beloved daughter of Abell and Natti Cauthon and younger than Matt but elder to Eldrin.

Bode undergoes significant development in Season 3 due to her ability to channel One Power. She used her skill to defeat a Whitecloaks member, who viewed this talent as a weapon against the Dark One.

As this may have forced Bode into a life-threatening situation, her mother asserts that she channeled One Power and got murdered. In this manner, Natti protects her daughter and showcases the extent to which Bode's family will go to protect her.

The sisters end up being locked up once more but are later rescued by Perrin, Bain, Chiad, and Faile. Supported by mighty allies and her family, Bode is likely to further apply her channeling strength in The Wheel of Time Season 3 and become one of the strongest women in the TV show.
