Tien is Jhoira's chief metalworker on Dominaria.
Description
Tien is characterized by her practical attire suited for heavy labor, and her stature, which is short enough that she has to stand on tiptoe to see certain things. She was seen covered in grease and remnants of sea-bottom mud from her hands-on involvement in the restoration work of the Weatherlight.
Tien is practical, skilled, and observant. She is engaged and interested in the intricate details of the team's work, often making insightful comments. She demonstrates a readiness to work collaboratively and shows respect for others' knowledge and skills. Tien is also caring and attentive, as seen when she notices subtle changes in Arvad's condition.
History
Tien was instrumental in the restoration of the Weatherlight, working diligently to clean and prepare the Thran metal supports for the new hull. She contributed significantly to the team's progress, ensuring that the complex metalwork and mechanical systems were addressed. When Arvad, the vampire, arrived, Tien played a key role in observing and confirming his gradual transformation under the Powerstone's influence. Her attention to detail and knowledge were crucial in diagnosing and addressing mechanical issues of the Weatherlight, furthering the team's mission to revive the legendary skyship.
