Tersa Lightshatter is an orc from Tarkir, and part of the Mardu Horde.

History

The younger cousin of Zurgo, Tersa snuck into the ranks of the Mardu armies to fight against Kolaghan, using her adept skill at stormsinging.[1] Famously, she reflected an overwhelmingly powerful lightning strike from Kolaghan herself that would've killed many hundreds on impact. It's because of her feats that the new khan granted her a title, and she is also responsible for the creation of the Lightning Proving ceremonies to test other young warriors, becoming a folk legend among the younger Mardu.[2][3] Tersa's greatest hope is that the Mardu will create an era of peace, and it is her greatest belief that the Mardu's strength is what will be needed to get there.
