| − | TenSoon is a kandra of the Third Generation. As such, he has no fixed body and can take on the form of someone as long as he has their bones. TenSoon has worked as a spy and imposter for a whole millennium and is able to impersonate somebody so perfectly that even their closest friends are unable to tell the difference. His ability to change forms is unmatched among all kandra, and he can change bodies within seconds.{{book ref|mb5|21}} TenSoon was created with the [[Blessing of Presence]]. Later he gained the [[Blessing of Potency]] from [[OreSeur]]. It’s unknown if he still has the [[Blessing of Potency]] after the Final Ascension. |

He wore the bones of a wolfhound whilst in her 'service', and came to like them. He betrayed the Contract by telling Vin the secrets of the kandra, and by disobeying his master, Zane. He returned to [[Kandra Homeland]] and was imprisoned and tried for his crimes. He rebelled and escaped to help Vin fulfil the prophecies of the [[Hero of Ages]]. |
He encountered [[Sazed]] before this and imparted some knowledge onto him, who he saw as the "Announcer." He then took Sazed to the homeland of the Kandra. |

His actions in the events of the Catacendre came to be known by the kandra as the "Remarked Duplicity."{{book ref|mb5|13}} He is known among Kandra for being the best impersonator and for the speed at which he can change bones.

[[Waxillium Ladrian]] met TenSoon who was imitating Captain [[Brettin]] after the arrest of [[Miles Dagouter]]. Brettin was killed in an unrelated matter, so [[Harmony]] had TenSoon impersonate him.{{wob ref|10001}} TenSoon did not have the opportunity to observe Brettin prior to his death, and so it was an imperfect impersonation. Those who knew Brettin could detect something off about him. TenSoon used Brettin's bones to submit a backdated request to the Senate for a citywide deputized forbearance for Wax.{{book ref|mb4|20}} This freed Wax from any charges incurred during his investigation of the [[Vanishers]], as well as granted him powers of investigation and arrest. He informed Wax of this action after Wax and Marasi's final confrontation with Miles. Brettin, still being impersonated by TenSoon, retired after Miles' execution,{{book ref|mb5|4}} and presumably his bones were laid to rest. |
