== 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 ==
Telsin is also a [[Hemalurgy|Hemalurgist]], and originally had three spikes, granting her the power of a [[steel|Coinshot]], [[gold|Bloodmaker]], and [[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}} After the Set learned how to bypass this restriction, she gained another spike granting her the power of a [[iron|Lurcher]].{{book ref|mb7|35}}
== 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.
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.
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}}
