Name: Tanya Gaelen
Race: Human
Location: Rhadim, Thargellian Highlands
Tanya works for Augustus von Haedor as an assistant. She admires the man - his relentlessness and unending patience. They are not romantically involved and in fact Tanya sees Augustus more like a father figure than a lover. It was pure chance that brought the two under the same roof one windy and rainy day a week after Augustus had entered Rhadim and decided to take residence just outside of the city. Tanya just happened to seek safety from the weather in the same inn Augustus had chosen to set his base and they soon found out that they both enjoyed the company of each other and that their views of the world followed the same guiding principles.
Although not a religious person, Tanya has strong convictions and deep understanding of common kindness and fairness which are - sadly - vaning traits and making way for selfishness and greed. Naturally Augustus did not just happen to trust the girl he met out of the blue, but instead put her through several tests before spilling the beans on his mission in Rhadim. Tanya does not know all that Augustus knows, but she knows enough to act accordingly. Her job is manifold: she is to act as a liason between Augustus and Miriam Sandell who has penetrated the deep core of the rising Syth cult in Rhadim and she is also to keep track of Miriam, follow menial errands in the city and see if she can find information about the possible corruption of city officials. Tanya does not personally know Miriam, but she does observe her comings and goings from a distance whereas Miriam doesn't know anything at all about Tanya - except that there is a mysterious person who picks up clues and information that are left by Miriam to be further directed to Augustus later.
Tanya is merely an adult - just 21 years of age. But she was an early bloomer and was practically a grown-up at the age of 14. Roughly at that time her mother and father both died in a fire. She had no siblings to take care of and her parents' passing away unrooted her from the place she grew up. She took off and left the neighbourhood of her childhood and never looked back. A literal coming of age. After 7 years of travelling around she still seeks new challenges and wishes to see more marvels of distant lands and their inhabitants. It is very clear to Augustus that Tanya is not going to stay beside him for the duration it might take to destroy the cult of Syth in Rhadim. Although Tanya has expressed an ideal that she wishes to see this thing through to the end. Who knows, maybe Augustus has enough influence on Tanya to make her stay in Rhadim until his job there is done.
