    Biography

    “Protection” — Guardian of Outworld’s Royal Family

    Chosen as an infant from Outworld’s first-born daughters, Tanya was raised by the Umgadi’s priestesses. She’s never known her birth family.

    As she grew older and saw other initiates wash out, Tanya feared that she would share their fate. But that fear spurred success; after many attempts, Tanya passed her trials and became a full Umgadi.

    Over time, Tanya became one of the order’s most trusted members. She was the obvious choice when it needed to choose a new leader for the royal family’s personal guard.

    As an Umgadi, Tanya is sworn to piety and chastity. That is why her bond with Princess Mileena, were it known, would cause a scandal. By following her heart, Tanya risks not only her position but also her life.

    Until recently I hadn’t met Li Mei, but I had heard the stories. How the Umgadi’s Matrons Superior blamed her for not preventing Emperor Jerrod’s murder. How she quit in disgrace rather than accept punishment. But those stories didn’t fit the woman I now knew. Li Mei would never have been so negligent.

    Eventually, I uncovered the truth. The failures and mistakes which led to the Emperor’s murder? They resulted from poor decisions made by the Matrons Superior themselves. They made Li Mei their scapegoat.

    When the Empress found out, she wanted the Umgadi disbanded. But I convinced her that it could be reformed. To make sure it did, she put me in charge. I am humbled by this sacred responsibility. The Umgadi, my sisters, they are my life. I will not let them be brought down by the acts of a selfish few.
