Robin Wednesbury is a telesend, a telepath who is limited to only broadcasting her own thoughts and not reading the minds of others. Robin is teaching a jaunte re-education class for head trauma patients when she first encounters Gully Foyle. She then quickly discovers that he has been deceiving everyone, and he threatens to expose her own secrets (she is an Alien Belligerant because her family is from the Outer Planets). Foyle later forces her to work for him as he cultivates his image as Geoffrey Fourmyle, a wealthy buffoon. She is the one who telesends the Thought and the Will that detonates the PyrE. She also encounters the Burning Man in the future where she gives Gully the message on how to save himself. She forms an attachment with Peter Y'ang-Yeovil and there is a suggestion of marriage in the future as she identifies herself to the Burning Man as Robin Yeovil.
