Talis the White

Talis is charismatic and hard-working, and her knowledge of dragons - particularly white dragons - rivals Severin’s knowledge of red dragons. Everyone was expecting her to take her place in the Cult of the Dragon's leadership; she has powerful friends, and they are not pleased with Severin’s decision to give the White Dragon Mask to his dwarf friend, Varram. She preaches traditionalism, arguing that Severin has lost sight of what really matters and just wants glory for himself.
