She demonstrates a readiness to work collaboratively and shows respect for others' knowledge and skills.

History[ | ]

Tien was instrumental in the restoration of the Weatherlight, working diligently to clean and prepare the Thran metal supports for the new hull. She contributed significantly to the team's progress, ensuring that the complex metalwork and mechanical systems were addressed. When Arvad, the vampire, arrived, Tien played a key role in observing and confirming his gradual transformation under the Powerstone's influence. Her attention to detail and knowledge were crucial in diagnosing and addressing mechanical issues of the Weatherlight, furthering the team's mission to revive the legendary skyship.
