Mein: Tanith is a slender young woman with shining silver skin, marred in a few places by streaks of black, and a faint few patches of iridescent scales.

History
1980: Born in Burlington, MA
1990: Parents are killed by a home invader.
1993: Tanith is taken into Arcadia, where her original keeper tries to change her into a piece of art as a silver dragon Fairest. In part, this attempt fails, because the Fae do not understand the human soul. She is later sent as a gift to Marcus Julius Draconis. For a time, she serves him as a favored pet and entertainment until her flawed nature was found. She was cast down to the lowest caste of slaves, until she became a gladiator.
2003: Tanith escapes Arcadia, and emerges, nearly dead, from a frozen pond in the rural areas of New Hampshire. Dargo Hawke (played by Matt Pester) fishes her out, and eventually asks Isadora (played by Linda Ballance) to assist in re-acclimating her to the mortal world.
2004: Tanith emerges into Lost society. She quickly joins the Summer Court, although she has allies and friends among the Spring Court as well.

- Gaius Arctorus - "Truly, you do not understand whom you speak to when you confront her. Perhaps pain will better educate you."
- Green Man - I know the stories behind the scars you can see.. and I know the shape of the scars you cannot.

- Erised - "We have seen in one another that which is both beautiful and ugly. She is perhaps one of the few true warriors who has my unflagging respect."
- Caius Arctorus Paendragon - "Good Warrior. A real bitch at times, but I've been told I she's only like that with me. Then again, that's the normal reaction I get from women. I may be second in command of the Order, but she's the one in charge of the Century."
- Marcus Antonius - "Tanith is a warrior with few peers, but she's so much more than that... even if she can't see it herself."
