Tali'Zorha of Calhoun

Tali'Zorha of Calhoun was born into a merchant family on Xenex, until they were killed in attack in the desert. Tali'Zorha spent her teenage years in the deserts and caves near Calhoun, making a living for herself by helping travelers pass the desert safely and helping smuggle things in and out. Her psychokinetic abilities manifested themselves when she was still a child, but fear toward using them kept her from really learning about them until she was forced to defend herself against the many predators, both animal and humanoid of the deserts and caves of Xenex.
Her telepathy kept her a step ahead of most of those she fought and helped her to find the right words to say to ensure she got paid for her work. In many ways, she was an intense loner, fearing what others would think of her 'freakish' abilities. Especially her own Clanspeople. Who had seen her create sand tornadoes and crush attacking blood thirsty insects with just a gesture of her hand.
It was not until she met Korba, that she felt she had finally met someone who she could be herself around. They quickly fell in love and were secretly mated, he initially paid for her to have a room at a tavern in town, but she was more than capable of paying her own way. As long as they spent time together. 
They had a child together, K'n'zy. And she had hoped that maybe now she could return to Calhoun society, as his wife and mother of his child. But his family and her own relatives could not see past her 'freak' nature. Derided as a crazy, desert witch, they forced Korba to marry another woman, a rival of Tali's and raise her child as their own. Striking her very name from any record and essentially banishing her from Calhoun. The Condacin can enforced it and when she would try to come into town, they would make things difficult for her, eventually leading to a confrontation when she tried to see her own daughter. Fighting them off, she fled to the Pit, hoping to escape them, only to be sucked into it and sent to the Xenex of another time and place. 
For more years than she had been able to keep track of, she bounced from reality to reality, hoping to get back to her own, because she knew one thing... that her daughter would grow up into a strong, confident woman, marry a good man and have a family that would be the future of Xenex. Because she had met her adult daughter before she was even born and saw inside her mind and her mate's mind. That hope kept her going, even through realities when Xenex was thriving but corrupt, or enslaved, or simply overtaken by other races.
Now Tal'Zorha is trying to build a life for herself and for the first time in her life, be the Mistress of her own destiny.
