{{update|mb7}}
'''Telsin Ladrian''' is a member of House Ladrian and sister of [[Waxillium]] on [[Scadrial]].{{book ref|aol|3}} She is a high-ranking member of the [[Set]] who is referred to by underlings as Lady Sequence, and eventually rose to the position of the Key.{{book ref|mb6|27}}{{book ref|mb7|21}}

== Appearance and Personality ==
{{image|Telsin_portrait.png|side=left|width=200px}}
Telsin is middle aged and has dark hair in curls and a rugged body.{{book ref|mb6|19}} While living in the [[Village]] as a teen, she showed disdain for following rules.{{book ref|mb6|Prologue}} Waxillium describes her as duplicitous and manipulative, being good at hiding her true intentions and always being able to get what she wants.{{book ref|mb7|19}}

== Attributes and Abilities ==
She is a [[Hemalurgy|Hemalurgist]] with three spikes, granting her the power of a [[steel|Coinshot]], a [[gold|Bloodmaker]], and a [[chromium|Leecher]] respectively, due to the fact that having four or more Hemalurgic spikes would make her susceptible to Harmony's complete control.{{book ref|mb6|26}} She is also a [[tin|Tin]] Feruchemist who can store her senses in a metalmind which she claims makes her immune to torture.{{book ref|mb7|34}} This is plausible, as a Windwhisperer may be able to store pain in a metalmind.{{wob ref|10519}}

== History ==

=== Youth ===
Like her brother Wax, she lived in the Village for a time as a youth and was subject to their [[Edwarn Ladrian|uncle's]] attempts to wrest their upbringing from their parents. When Wax left the Village after killing [[Forch]], she did not leave at that time.

She loved to draw, so her uncle kept an easel with a large pad of paper in [[Ladrian mansion]] for her use.

Telsin and Wax were not close; they were practically strangers.{{book ref|aol|3}} Over the course of twenty years with very little contact between them, they both fell prey to laxity in their attempts to stay in touch. When Edwarn faked his own death in the carriage accident, he faked hers as well.

=== The Set ===

Edwarn claims that she recruited him into the Set.

Edwarn reveals to Wax that her death was also faked and that she is "safe."{{book ref|mb4|Epilogue}}

Wax comes to believe that his uncle is holding her captive. When he confronts him, he tells Wax that if he kills him, "your sister is as good as dead." Wax promises to address her kidnapping after dealing with [[Bleeder]].{{book ref|mb5|17}}

Wax finds Telsin under guard in a secret Set fortress in [[Dulsing]]. Wax rescues her, and she acts as if she wants revenge on all the members of the Set. When the Set's [[Thug]] enters the room, she immediately shoots him dead, blowing their cover and leading to a desperate escape on the skimmer.{{book ref|mb6|19}}

Telsin convinces Wax that they must go to the temple before Suit's expedition so that they can claim the [[Bands of Mourning]]. As they fly there, the skimmer flies over the group and Telsin "accidentally" causes [[Wayne]] to kick a pack overboard, hitting one of the guards and alerting them to their presence.{{book ref|mb6|23}} This action, along with her quick shooting of the Thug (who would have revealed her true identity), causes Wax to suspect her.

After encountering Suit and entering the temple, Telsin betrays Wax and shoots him three times before he can escape through a trap. She also incapacitates [[MeLaan]], injecting her and taking her spikes. She was a member of the Set all along. Known as Lady Sequence, she outranks even Suit.{{book ref|mb6|27}} 

After [[Marasi]] finds the Bands of Mourning and turns the tide of the encounter, Telsin attempts to escape on the skimmer. Wayne finds her and shoots her multiple times with a shotgun to avenge Wax's (temporary) death. He figures she has Hemalurgic health anyway, so he doesn't have much compunction about shooting her.{{book ref|mb6|29}} After reclaiming the spikes she was carrying, he lets her go.{{book ref|mb6|31}} Later, Wax finds the skimmer gone, indicating that she had escaped.{{book ref|mb6|30}}

=== Avatar of Autonomy ===
She eventually was chosen by Autonomy to become her Avatar.
