Aizheän Tativin

Aizheän Tativin was a friend of Vedero Drazhin. She built automatons.

Appearance
Vedero noted that Aizheän was so short that a coatrack ducking its head was very useful.

Personality
Vedero noted that Aizheän had a habit of showing people, even the Emperor, her drawings.

Life
Aizheän attempted to build a steam-powered automaton of a unicorn using "a pipe from her furnace", though she couldn't figure out how to make it walk, and it remained "tethered to her study wall. She uses it as a coatrack". The tube Vedero used for her telescope was originally meant as a horn for the automaton, but Aizheän “found the telescoping was prone to retracting or extending itself at just the wrong moment.”

Aizheän's home could become very hot in the summer to the point that she could not conduct her experiments, so she tended to travel to the Untheilenese Court at that time.

Trivia

 * It's unclear what relation Aizheän had to Esmeän Tativin, the former secretary of the late Tomilo Ulzhavel.
