Tsera's Description

Tsera, a creature from an abstract mathematical universe who has entered the world of Mirn-Kaia to learn about applying her knowledge to practical models, and found herself entangled in a maelstrom of emotions. Until recently, Khontak's girlfriend.

Says Maya: [5 Oct 1995]

Tsera is neither easy nor really fun to describe, being all too abstract and flawless: she already limited her infinite being when she entered this world, in order to learn: and her participation in the Timelord's Game, taking the role of the flesh-and-blood Ki'ah, is a necessary stage in Tsera's self-development.

This refers to the recent experiment by which the Lord of the Tenth Layer of the Layered World, the only ruler unknown by name to the Fellowship, asked the party to participate in a strange game where they would take roles of other creatures in an imaginary world. Tsera agreed willingly, creating the character of Ki'ah, a minor-powered whore/thief/assassin/sorceress. Maya, Tsera's player, provided us with this description of her character's character:

The name Ki'ah should be pronounced with a glottal sound in the middle and as many "a"-s at the end as possible.
This is a girl: not really young , but beautiful (not too much). Tall, not too thin, slender with long curly black hair - not exactly well-combed. Slightly torn inexpensive clothes, clearly not all of which sewn originally for her, a bit too long and large but somehow not masking her figure.
Mobile sympathetic face, not too fair. Naughty, laughing green eyes. Long eyelashes, beautiful eyebrows. An ever-smiling mouth, bright lips, either painted or....?
All covered with chains, bracelets, long earrings, all made of base metal, glass and cheap gems - but it's shiny!
Keeps herself simply, fully understanding how she looks and that she would probably look like a fool if she wore diamonds. Still one may perceive that something hides beyond all this. But what?...
She can make anybody talk and then listen , and listen, and listen... And she's VENGEFUL!!!

I am reminding again that this is Ki'ah, Tsera's embodiment in the Timelord's Game. Tsera herself can take any shape she chooses, but usually she appears as a female Tsji - a reminder of her former relationship with Khontak.
