Baishya

Baishya (or Bai for short) was a human Atarka-clan girl with developing shamanistic powers in the past of Tarkir. She was the granddaughter of Yasova Dragonclaw, and twin sister of Naiva. 
==History==
The sisters had been born holding hands when the midwife had cut open the belly of their dead mother. Atarka had killed their mother Kiarka because she was a Temur Whisperer. 
Baishya was known for her occasional dreamy absentmindedness. When she suddenly felt the need to climb the holy mountain, the Eternal Ice, Naiva accompanied her sister to protect her against goblins. Together, they survived an avalanche and an attack by goblins. They met with Windfolk, who gave Baishya a vision of the birth of Ugin and the other Elder Dragons and told her to convey its message to their grandmother. 
Realizing that the vision was sent by Ugin himself, the band of Yasova fled the Atarka dragons, who forbade shamanistic practices, and set out to find the <c>Crucible of the Spirit Dragon</c>. On their way, the met the Ghostfire Warrior Tae Jin, who shared Shu Yun's knowledge and additional visions of the origin of Ugin and Nicol Bolas. Both Baishya and Naiva felt attracted to the handsome young man. Meanwhile, Bai's shamanistic powers were developing quickly. Following the death of two Atarka and Ojutai broodlings, the hunting band was confronted by Atarka herself. They were only saved because Tae Jin had a vision of Nicol Bolas, and impressed Atarka with its tale.
At Ugin's grave, Bolas appeared and was almost able to conquer Naiva's mind. Disguised as her sister, Baishya and her grandmother saved Naiva from Bolas' influence and tricked the elder dragon into thinking that Ugin's grave was targeted by the Immortal Sun to trap him away. This made Bolas flee Tarkir, and because of this Ugin's secret survival was never revealed to him.
