Tasya is a complex woman, always wearing a mask of many faces. To some, she is the doting daughter of fractured noble house, trying her best to fill the role her mother left behind. She's hardworking and eager to be of service. She cares greatly for her community and heritage, wanting the betterment of man above all; the usual spewed noblewoman crap.Just as quick as it comes Tasya's smile can fade and a cold indifference looms in cerulean eyes. Sometimes it's hard to tell if she says what she truly means but at least she'll remain cordial until you piss her off. To others, Tasya is a ruthless businesswoman clawing her way to a brighter future for herself, uncaring of any she tramples along the way. She's never one to dirty her own hands dirty, choosing to be the mastermind, pulling the strings from her gilded throne.But deep down there is a fearful woman, unsure of her place in the world, who she can trust her heart with and the messages the stars try to whisper her every night.

Life in Ul'dah was good, money was never an issue with her mother's noble heritage and her father had started a lucrative luxury trading company, The Dove's Nest, in honor of his daughter. But life never remains so carefree forever. When Tasya was just twelve summers old, the Citadel was destroyed, taking the lives of her mother, who was their visiting, and her relatives with it. The loss deeply hurt her father, her own remaining family, who threw himself into a frivolous hobbies and habits to avoid grief while Tasya had to pick up the pieces for the manor to stay afloat. Going from doted daughter to head of the house was a difficult adjustment for the young woman, but like everything else she attempted, Tasya strived for her best.

Tasya was born to a noblewoman mother and merchant father, in the Bozja Citadel. Despite being born in the lap of luxury, her mother was determined to raise their daughter to be just as beautiful inside as she was out. Even though the family loved their homeland greatly, the growing concern of Garlean Occupation would prompt the family to move to Ul'dah when Tasya was just a toddler, leaving relatives and friends behind. Even in the midst of trying to secure their own future, the Grunshasch household could not turn their backs on the other war torn regions, namely the nearby Dalmasca, deciding to take several refugees with them under their employ.

Presently Tasya splits her time between keeping her house in order, rubbing elbows with Ul'dah's elite, and leading operations of the Dove's Nest and its subsidiaries hoping to expand her influence to all corners of the world.In her spare time when she's not strolling the gardens and cafes of the City states, Tasya can be found observing the excavations of ancient tombs for their artifacts and treasures, as forgotten history has always been her true passion. Especially those that can share any light on the strange gifts she seems to possess.

The Fading Star

Svetozar Grushach

Father

Svetozar is Tasya's once beloved father and only living family following the death of her mother and relatives during the Bozja Incident.
On the surface he is a stern, gruff man, but in actuality he is more like an excitable puppy, something Tasya adored about him when he was more family oriented and career driven. Now every time she looks at him, weather it be during one of his drunken stupors or gambling binges, she feels nothing but contempt for a man who only causes her problems with the business.

The Heavenly Bodies

Korri Tswarra & Tahsin

Seneschals

Korri and Tahsin were a pair of orphans children the Grushach family picked up from Dalmasca. They were raised in the household surprisingly close to Tasya, quickly becoming childhood friends as the years went on. Unlike the other orphans taken in, the pair decided to remain with the family even into adulthood, choosing to devote themselves to Tasya and her goals.
With Korri's surprising intellect for a former street rat, he was well suited to assist with the duties of the business and household. Tahsin put his talents elsewhere, as the Dove's Nest's head of protection, and all around muscle, never batting an eye at any of Tasya's slightly corrupt requests.

The Blinding Sun

Matteo Reingold

colleague

As the heir apparent to the influential Reingold house, Tasya once regarded the man as suitable marriage candidate. Instead a small kinship blossomed as Tasya became more accustomed to the other, finally meeting someone who also understood the pressures of noble inheritance and met it head-on with pointed smile.

The Darkening Moon

E'lithas Tamsin

colleague

E'lithas is a close companion of Matteo, for reasons Tasya cannot fathom as she finds him rude and irritating, more akin to a parasite clinging to Matteo's wealth and influence. Nonetheless the two have decided to have a polite but curt relationship with the occasion biting comment when not in earshot of their mutual acquaintance.

The Distant Comet

Navaluk "Nava" Tswarra

Freelance agent

Nava is Korri's older brother who decided to remain behind in Dalmasca, working as a rebel and hired mercenary until it's liberation years later. Not wanting his useful skills to go to waste in retirement, Tasya took him into her employ, promising him the inn of his dreams in return for his service when she has need of him.
He tasked with her more dubious missions she wouldn't even give to Tahsin, which he does with little complaint for the sake of his younger brother.
