Kib Absold's younger sister and cohort. She is far more interesting than this present stub indicates.  
 
+
Like all of the Absolds, Tana has the good looks characteristic of a healthy (read: wealthy) upbringing, with the features archetypical of Odessa: A solid build, olive skin, dark eyes and hair. For an Absold, she is not particularly tall (5' 7"), and her eyes are fiercely interrogative. Her voice, while able to demonstrate a fair and pleasing lilt, is more commonly blunt and loud, efficiently carrying the weight of her words with all the force of a Gilden warhammer. All of this air is bravado, belying a sensitivity that would quickly get her killed in the circles she frequents, were it detected.
+
 
+
==Background==
+
Tana grew up the youngest of the Absolds, born a year before her mother [[Lilia Absold|Lilia's]] untimely death during labor. She, like [[Kib Absold|Kib]] and [[Lea Absold|Lea]], grew up with no memory of Lilia beyond the faintest of impressions. Due to this commonality, and the natural grouping of the ages, those three were closer together in childhood than with any of the others.
+
 
+
Being the last of many, and a girl besides, [[Garn Absold|Garn]] had no particular plans for Tana's life. This was probably just as well--Tana was singularly stubborn even for an Absold, and any attempts to push her into a mold would have been met with fierce resistance. Of the girls, she was the most likely to spend time on the streets of Farrandon with her brothers, playing and fighting at their sides.
+
 
+
She was educated as all of the Absolds, and spent her fair share of time on the road with her stonemason father, learning to talk and sell, but in contrast to Lea spent an inordinate amount of her nights freewheeling on rooftops and chumming around in dive bars. Exploring gave her a thrill, and the surest way to get Tana to go somewhere was to tell her she wasn't allowed.
+
 
+
As Tana grew up, she spent more and more of her time on the road, conducting business for her father. While she had no interest in craftsmanship, new places and people excited her, and Garn was only too happy to encourage her interest in business. She used the opportunities to fulfill her curiosity, and even managed to acquire a Ring of Chameleon Power to aid her in this.
+
 
+
==Recent History==
+
 
+
Tana was just returning from such a trip when Garn was arrested and tried for treason. She managed to sneak out shortly after and, hearing news that Kib had been unceremoniously dumped from his post with the Odessan military at the border between Western Celestia and the Bandit Kingdom, decided to follow him. A few months and a harrowing journey later, she found herself in Kred, surrounded by news of its recent troubles and Kib's involvement therein, and it is there that she finally caught up with her brother, with whom she now travels.
