History
She is an Accepted at the same time as Siuan Sanche and Moiraine Damodred.
Activities
Tamra Ospenya summons all the Accepted, including Atuan, to the Oval Lecture Hall to receive instructions on the distribution of the Amyrlin's bounty to children born near Tar Valon in the final days of the Aiel War.
She is mentioned as one of the names shouted in the Accepted's quarters while the girls are getting ready to leave the Tower in order to take the census with regard to the bounty mentioned above.
Trivia
There is an Aes Sedai of the Yellow Ajah, also of the Black Ajah, named Atuan Larisett. Since the birth date for this character in the Companion is inconsistent with that given for an Accepted at that time, it is assumed that these are two seperate people with the same first name.
Parallels
Her name may be a reference to the classic 1971 Ursula K. Le Guin fantasy novel The Tombs of Atuan.
