Description[]

To be added

Personality[]

To many in her family, she is known for being prickly, especially in Adrian's mother's case, who happened to be sharing a lover with the queen, Ambrose.

She has mixed feelings about Moroi fighting, having had secret training sessions with Grant, one of her Guardians. She claims that "what she did for the dhampir community was better" than what others requested, changing the law to release dhampirs at age 16. However, in truth, this was merely a stalling tactic to stall others in court who had more extreme ideas about dhampirs.

Appearances[]

Vampire Academy Series[]

Vampire Academy[]

It is in the first book, Vampire Academy, that the Queen is first introduced. The first time that Rose meets her, she brutally insults her "Royal Highness" with a bunch of snide retorts. It was Tatiana who insulted Lissa with a bunch of remarks that she wasn't living up to the name "Vasilisa" nor the Dragomir reputation after she had returned after fleeing Saint Vladimir's the prior year, purposely humiliating Lissa in front of the whole school.

Hello, My Name Is Rose Hathaway[]

Queen Tatiana's message of blessing was one of the items on the St. Varvara's Day scavenger hunt list.

Shadow Kiss[]

In the third book, Shadow Kiss, Tatiana thoroughly "bitches" Rose out for her rumored relationship with Adrian, her great-nephew.

Blood Promise[]

Spirit Bound[]

In the fifth book, Spirit Bound, Rose and Tatiana are apparently complete opposites. After Rose, Eddie, and Lissa return to the court after freeing Victor Dashkov (although they are able to hide their involvement by claiming that they were partying in Las Vegas, supported by video footage), Rose and Eddie are sent to administrative duties while Tatiana lectures Lissa but does not punish her. However, she is now able to plant her own loyal guardians for Lissa. Later, she has Rose come before a council meeting, where she questions Rose on her past accomplishments at Saint Vladimir's. Believing that the meeting is an evaluation of her, Rose boasts of her past accomplishments, believing that this will be the end of her recent labor work. However, in truth, it was a meeting to lower the age of Dhampir becoming a Guardian to 16. Rose is enraged at the realization that Tatiana tricked her. Later on, Tatiana holds a large meeting to explain her decision to lower the age. However, Rose, still livid, confronts the Queen in open court (despite a desperate plea from Lissa not to do so) and tells her that she is wrong. The Queen calmly counters Rose by stating that Rose is currently slated for an administrative position, but she could change that with Rose's support (essentially threatening Rose by stating that if Rose does not support her, she will have Rose permanently on desk duty for the rest of her career.) Rose, furious, refuses the queen in front of everyone, saying that she will never accept any offer from her, then calling her a sanctimonious bitch, finally breaking the queen's calm facade (and essentially destroying any Guardian career Rose dreamed of) and causing chaos to erupt in the court.

Tatiana is later murdered. Rose Hathaway is the main suspect for this murder due to several factors, such as her argument with Tatiana in court and the fact that it was her stake that was used to kill the queen. Before her death, Tatiana wrote a letter to Rose, explaining that Lissa Dragomir's father had an illegitimate child and that Rose must find him/her.

Rose Hathaway was framed for Tatiana's murder in a bid to rid her of the Royal Court and even have her killed. However, Tatiana was murdered by Natasha Ozera due to their conflicting ideals, and she framed Rose for the killing after becoming extremely jealous that Dimitri Belikov was in love with Rose and not her. Tasha was eventually found guilty and convicted of murder, losing both her freedom (and later her life, as all royal traitors are executed) and any chance at a friendship with Dimitri.

Powers and Abilities[]

Powers[]

  • Compulsion: Moroi are able to control the minds of humans, Dhampirs, and other Moroi to a certain degree through eye contact and verbal commands. Spirit users are the strongest in this ability.
  • Elements: Moroi have magical abilities that allow them to control the elements of earth, air, fire, water, and spirit. Moroi often specialize in one element in particular.
  • Enhanced Immune System: Moroi don't get sick like humans. Although they can contract diseases, especially terminal diseases, it is unusual for Moroi to get sick or catch viruses.
  • Enhanced Senses: Moroi have stronger senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch than humans. Moroi are shown to be able to distinguish between Moroi/Dhampir/Human blood by taste.
  • Enhanced Speed: Moroi are faster than humans but aren't as fast as Strigoi and Dhampirs.
  • High Life Expectancy: Moroi are not immortal like Strigoi, but they still live longer than most humans. Most Moroi live up to 100–110 years old, although some can far exceed that.
  • Hunger Resistance: Moroi do not have to kill in order to feed, unlike Strigoi who always kill their bite victims, and instead feed in small, non-lethal increments.
  • Limited Darkness Adaptation: Moroi possess better night vision than humans, being able to see even in very dim illumination such as starlight.
  • Regenerative Healing Factor: Moroi heal easier and quicker than humans, allowing them to recover from injuries quickly so long as they feed.
  • Supernatural Beauty: Moroi are known to be highly attractive. They are immensely beautiful, slim, and tall; their skin is pale. However, Moroi do not need to have all of these features.

Abilities[]

Weaknesses[]

  • Mortality: Despite their healing factor, Moroi are still mortal and can die of advanced diseases, exsanguination, and severe injuries. They also weaken with age, just like humans.
  • Physical Weakness: Moroi aren't very strong physically and are absolutely no match for Strigoi. Compared to Dhampirs, Moroi are generally physically weaker and less nimble.
  • Sunlight: Moroi are sensitive to sunlight, and while exposure to sunlight is not lethal to Moroi, it is very uncomfortable.

Relationships[]

Relatives[]

Adrian Ivashkov[]

Tatiana loved and adored her only great-nephew, Adrian Ivashkov. As Adrian states, she was the only one not to deem him a failure and made him feel loved. They used to smoke in the throne room when they were alone, and Tatiana, in return, called Adrian "her little artist," showing that she believed in his talent. The only fault with the relationship was that Tatiana wanted Adrian to marry Lissa Dragomir, but he refused. When Tatiana was murdered, Adrian had been seen drinking and smoking more than normal, which also sent him into deep depression. It is later found out that Tatiana had given Adrian platinum ruby cufflinks, to which Adrian says he would be living on the streets, dying before he gave those away. She also is seen to have conversations with Adrian when in "spirit darkness" moments.

Rose Hathaway[]

Neither Rose nor Tatiana loved their relationship, especially Rose, who was in shock when she received the letter from Ambrose about Jill. Much of their relationship was filled with Tatiana's wrath over Rose's relationship with her great-nephew, whom she secretly wanted to pair with Vasilisa Dragomir, and Rose was furious over Tatiana's decree lowering the guardian age to 16. However, she trusts Rose enough to tell her about Lissa's half-sibling in a note, knowing that Rose would do the right thing with the information.
