Queen Tahamine & King Andragoras III

Tahamine was Arslan's adoptive mother and the Queen of the Kingdom of Pars.

Appearance[]

Tahamine is a beautiful woman long, blonde hair and light blue eyes. Most of her incarnations from the different adaptations depict her in a similar way. On the other hand, she has black hair in the original novel. It is said that her striking beauty was the reason for several nobles to betray and kill each other for her hand.

Personality[]

Tahamine has a cold and distant personality. She rarely speaks to even her husband or her son. As for socialization, Tahamine is hardly seen speaking with anyone other than her maids.

It is shown later that she is very calculating personality. This was noted by Guiscard when his brother, Innocentis VII, said that she would only marry the king if he were to bring back the head of Andragoras.

Despite her seemly interminably phlegmatic attitude, Tahamine has shown to have great love towards her child. The only reason she was obedient towards Andragoras, up to now, was because he kidnapped her child.

History[]

Not much is known of Queen Tahamine. There are multiple rumors that fly around about the queens past, many of them may or may not be true. It is said that at first she was betrothed to the Prime Minister of the Principality of Badakhshan, but his master, Prince Kayumars, stole her away. It is then said that the Prime Minister later killed himself because of the affair. Later on, during a war between Badakshn and Pars, the prince threw himself from the tower of the castle because they knew they couldn't win. From there, it is then said that the previous king, Osroes, and his younger brother, Andragoras, had a falling out and fought over Tahamine's hand. The rumors split between King Osroes dying of disease or being assassinated by his brother, but the consensus of the public is that Tahamine brings misfortune to every man involved with her.
