Tara

Tara is a human planeswalker from the plane of Revio. Born the princess of Alratha, Tara studied to one day become the queen of the city and rule it well. However, when the second Great Calamity of Revio began around her, she set out on a quest to stop it from happening. In the process, her planeswalker spark ignited, and when she returned she stopped the calamity with the help of her allies. Afterwards, she went on a tour of the Multiverse in order to study different forms of magic, culminating in her joining Zadan's tournament. Later, she returns to Alratha in time to be there for the death of her father, and to be crowned Queen of Alratha.

The Second Great Calamity
Tara's life changed forever when she was approached by her old friend Reytha, who told her of great danger to the plane, as they had learned of the beginnings of the Second Great Calamity. After learning this, Tara's mistrust of her father's deception led to her and Tara leaving Alratha and heading to find the Sphinx Sethis, the only one who could stop the Calamity. As they try to escape the city, they were caught by the mysterious girl Belle and her peculiar cat, Eve. The four of them set out together to try and stop the Calamity.

On their journey, the group gets attacked by the Prince Dthan, sent as an envoy of the Cieldanan King, who was also seeking an audience with Sethis. Reytha, the most experienced fighter of the four, fought Dthan, but in the chaos Tara almost dies in quicksand. As she almost perished, her planeswalker spark ignited, and she planeswalked away. When she returned, she was with her friends, and they continued on their journey, with Reytha and Dthan having struck a peace.

When they reach the inner sanctum of Sethis' palace, the four are asked a riddle by the sphinx, a test to prove the worth of humanity. To the surprise of Tara, it is the cat Eve who responds, answering the riddle. Eve stole the official wish that was granted to whoever answered the riddle, however, Sethis decided that humanity was worthy of being saved, and averted the Calamity anyway. Afterwards, Tara returns to the city of Alratha, and is welcomed back by the city and her father as a great heroine. As she does, the great Alrathan Oasis, devastated in the first Calamity, is magically restored as a symbol of the new peace upon the plane.

The Tournament of Champions
Five years after the Great Calamity was averted, Tara was summoned, along with Eve, to fight in the Tournament of Champions hosted by Zadan. The two, realizing they cannot hope to win on their own, decide to set aside their differences and team up, since no one there knows Eve's status as a planeswalker. However, despite this, the reluctant partners still lose in the first round to Experiment Zero.

Magic
Tara's primary form of magic is sabulomancy, the ability to manipulate sand. She can use this ability to create sand constructs that can act autonomously, create shields and barriers made of sand, or directly shoot sand at her enemies. She also can use sabulomancy to turn other surfaces into sand, although this usually takes time to do and cannot be done instantly.

After sparking, Tara also has studied many other kinds of magic and can utilize many forms. However, compared to her sabulomancy, her magic of other types (such as pyromancy, or cryomancy) is much weaker, and can only be used for weak and simple tasks. For example, with preparation time, she could set a wooden structure on fire or in an instant could light a match, but she isn't able to create spontaneous blasts of fire or ice.
