character

Mistress Tiatha

Tiatha

Architect of the wire hack that lets tower-amplified auras be broadcast into Club Vanquisher.

Story so far

Tiatha does not appear in person during the Club Vanquisher Infiltration, but her work underpins it. Tiatha's Wire Hack, mixed with the boost from the clock tower, extends Li Na's Dark Purpose from a touch-range aura to a roughly twenty-meter field around the Clock Tower Capacitor Wire, with the signal amplified enough that escaping the effect is nearly impossible.

The hack is the load-bearing piece of Carl's whole plan — everything else in the lobby, from the held-open portal doors to Li Jun climbing the fireplace, exists to keep her wire unbroken.

Appearance

Not present in this chapter.

Role

Off-screen technical author of the aura-broadcast scheme.

Relationships

Li Na — Her hack carries Li Na's auras
Carl — His infiltration depends on her technique
