Tacenda Verlasen is a songmage and possible planeswalker[1] from Innistrad.[2]
Description
Tacenda has long brown hair. She carries a viol around, which was a gift from her parents at her fourteenth birthday. It, and any other musical instrument she uses, resonates with Tacenda's Warding Song. The Warding Song is only effective against monsters, never against humans.
History
Youth
Tacenda and her twin sister Willia were born in the Approaches of Kessig, as daughters of a pair of clothing makers. They were each born with a curse: Tacenda would go blind with the rising of the sun, while Willia experienced the same when it became night. There was never a time that both could see. The townsfolk whispered that this was the curse of the Bog. Tacenda discovered she loved to sing, and that her songs could call magic of warding and protection against the monsters in the woods. Willia found a similar power within her while she fought with a sword, becoming a fearsome warrior. Because of their protection, their hometown of Verlasen became a safe haven and thrived because of it.
The Whisperers
Just after the girls turned fifteen, their parents were attacked in the woods and killed. Not long after, Willia was allegedly killed by the Lord of the Manor. Then, geists under the control of someone who sounded like the Lord of the Manor attacked the village, draining souls from the villagers. Tacenda's Song of Protection failed to ward the geists off, leaving her unable to save her village.
Meeting Davriel
Tacenda decided to take revenge on who she believed to be the killer, the Lord of the Manor. When her eyesight returned at dusk, she struck out on her own and attempted to kill him with a rusty pick. Davriel brushed off the attack, but Tacenda piqued his interest, and he decided to assist her in figuring out what happened to Verlasen.
