Here is some additional info about the Children of the Light from their excerpt from the Wheel of Time [Companion][1]:

A society of men who followed strict ascetic beliefs, owing allegiance to no nation and dedicated to the defeat of the Dark One and the destruction of all Darkfriends.

Questioners reported to the High Inquisitor, who only wore the red shepherd’s crook, suggestive of his independent authority. The Children were a cavalry force, and their largest unit was a legion, which was roughly two thousand troops. Officers wore golden knots to indicate rank.

The last known leader of the Children was Galad Damodred. They fought alongside the armies of the Light in the Last Battle.
