Natasha Hayden (an alias used only for real life) is a redheaded Remirian spitfire, whose zeal as a freedom fighter against Thyrion and skill as a martial artist have earned her a reputation even the Select envy.

Outside the realm of fantasy, she is an avid reader who reviews books and movies on her blog, natashasshelf.blogspot.com, and a behind-the-scenes story arc director and content editor for Children of the Wells, when life allows such time luxury. Occasionally, she likes to dabble in writing fiction, and her work can be found in the novella Destroyer and the short story collection The Day After. She also happens to be a real-life black belt in Taekwondo. Natasha grew up in the Brazilian Amazon jungle but is now on an even greater adventure as a full-time mother of two toddlers, and she loves it.
