Thailene the Feral Saryn
the Orokin played with the thought of making more powerful warframes. one project had some non-umbral units subjected to a Helminth-induced chrysalis state. this metamorphosis awakens the infestation in warframes and develops a singular consciousness. and thus, a new line of larger, more bestial warframes were born.
when the project was still live during the Old War, a male Tenno named Zanou (pronounced “zon-oh”) managed to tame Thailene just enough. however, she does not enjoy the transference process, for it is like having someone under your skin against your will. she is sapient enough that Zan considers her a friend rather than a pet. despite the fact that she cant speak much, the two interact quite alot. in fact, they dont really socialize much with others.
personality-wise, Thailene’s is aggressive towards strangers and respectful towards those she trusts, but exclusively cuddly towards Zan because reasons... she enjoys dark humor, much to Zan’s dismay; they are semi-connected telepathically, so he has to endure her jokes on a basis. Thailene is excessively battle-hungry and can be detrimentally destructive in combat and even try to pick fights with allies. but being patient with her is the key to getting her to trust you.
