Want

Background

Early life

Born in the bustling Great City of Aldoria, Tamsin's early life was both sheltered and isolated due to her fragile health. Prone to sickness from birth, her parents, both skilled artisans, kept her close to home, shielding her from the harshness of the outside world. Despite these restrictions, Tamsin's curious spirit was undeterred. Her fascination with magic blossomed in the confines of her room, surrounded by books and trinkets her parents brought from their travels.

Academic education

Recognizing her passion, Tamsin's parents enrolled her in the Great Aldoria Academy of Arcana. Although she struggled with general magical practices, Tamsin discovered a remarkable talent for enchanting, binding magic to objects with a finesse that astounded her teachers. Her love for this craft grew, and she dedicated herself to mastering it. After completing her basic degree, however, she decided not to pursue higher education, yearning instead for new horizons beyond the Academy's walls.

Journey to Earlwood

At 23, seeking the freedom she had long been denied, Tamsin bid farewell to her family and ventured to Earlwood Village .
