'''Talleani''' is the ward of [[Plaitime]] (aka ''the Fat Man'', aka ''the Skinny Man''), a shady figure who has historic ties to both [[Solhaven]] and [[Mist Harbor]]. She has traveled with him between both of those towns when he had to relocate due to a falling out with the local Guilds, and she later helped him establish the Rogue's Guild in Mist Harbor. While Plaitime considers Talleani his ward, she is just as likely to tell him what to do. She has a sharp tongue, is skilled in hiding, and is perfectly fine with doing Plaitime's dirty work.

In [[Charlatos]] 5123, political flyers were seen around [[Wehnimer's Landing]], at least one of which referenced the Skinny Man, likely from him and distributed by Talleani.

Later that same month, Talleani gathered locals from Solhaven's North Market to bring to Plaitime's home in Market Bend, where he shared some interesting news that he had learned by reading mail that did not belong to him. That tipped the locals off to a group of commoners that had recently departed Solhaven to travel to [[Ta'Illistim]] to express their anger about the death of [[Kasendra Malwind]] in [[:Category:Nations on the Brink|Ta'Illistim two months earlier]]. Talleani more directly shared information, offering precise locations and dates for locating the commoners, apparently intent on getting help to stop them before they escalated political tensions between the east and west.

In [[Lumnea]] 5123, Talleani showed up at court, much to the surprise of [[Odelgarde Brindlestraffe]] who later admitted that she and Talleani had grown up together in Solhaven but they had grown apart after the incident of Shadows of Solhaven during the [[Griffin Sword War]]. She informed the court that she had protected [[Wilhard]], the former Harbor Master who was to stand trial against the Pirate [[Bodohal]], and that he was in continued danger. Shortly after that meeting, Plaitime was discovered floating in the bay.

In [[Koaratos]] 5123, as part of the [[:Category:Nations_on_the_Brink | Nations on the Brink Storyline]], notes were found where she was communicating with an elven counterpart in Ta'Illistim that she called Yellow Rose.

In [[Phoenatos]] 5123, Talleani testified in a trial against the pirate [[Bodohal]] at that trial, she for the first time revealed her full name. Talleani Shadowkyn.
