[edit] Biography

[edit] Early Life and Escape from Sarain

Thayet is the only child of the Saren warlord Adigun jin Wilima and the K'mir princess Kalasin. Her relationship with her father was strained, particularly due to the fact that he openly wished for a son. She and Buri, her personal guard and familial servant, were forced to flee the Saren civil war in 439 HE^[1] and came to Tortall with Alanna and allies.

[edit] Monarch of Tortall

After being presented at court, Thayet and King Jonathan began courting. They married in 439 HE^[1], and Thayet became queen and co-ruler of Tortall.

[edit] Physical description

Thayet is often described as one of the most beautiful women in existence. In 439 HE she has a creamy complexion and hazel eyes^[2].

[edit] Personality and trait

Thayet is a very strong and independent woman and it is observed that her relationship with her king, Jonathan is indeed one of love. Though she is a woman she holds a very high place of power. Jonathan values her opinions and ideas, only talking Kalasin out of becoming a Knight while Thayet is away. She is also very patriotic and is willing to fight for her people and country. At one point she was left a court function to respond to a call of the Queen's Riders, wearing a very expensive silk pink dress. She is a practical and just person, beliving in equality amongst all.
