Tivira, a kalashtar originally born on the distant continent of Sarlona, fled that nation for the continent of Khorvaire several years ago when her family was mercilessly hunted down and killed by il’Lashtavar, his Quori spirit minions, and their human lackeys, the Dreaming Dark and the so-called ‘Inspired’ of the nation of Riedra. Upon reaching Khorvaire’s shores, she discovered the unconscious body of the warforged, Kinjirareta, in a forest in the northern reaches of the nation of Cyre and woke her. The pair have been traveling companions ever since. Tivira is the last remaining member of her family, and therefore, carries within her the last fragment of her symbiotic quori spirit, Kashti.
