Tania is the one of the main female protagonists and the tritagonist of the Japanese light novel franchise The Beast Tamer Who Was Exiled from His Party Meets a Cat Girl From the Strongest Race.
She was voiced by Rumi Okubo (who also voiced Enome North in Immoral Guild and Nana Hiiragi in Talentless Nana) in Japanese and Molly Searcy in English.
Overview[]
Tania is a red dragon from the Dragon Tribe (one of the strongest tribes). She went out to searching worthy opponents to defeat until she was defeated by Rein Shroud and his companion, Kanade. She became the second companion of Rein when he made pact with him just so he gain her powers. She, Rein and Kanade easily defeated the Hero's Party (who were Rein's former teammate that banished him) though she wants to fight Arios due to her hatred towards him for banishing Rein through Arios' delusions of grandeur.
Tania, Rein and Kanade helped a fairy named Sora to rescue her twin sister, Luna from the Shadow Knight (a C-rank monster that is one of the members of the Demon Lord's Army). Tania and the others formed an alliance with Stella Enplace (the vice-captain of Horizon's Knights) to overthrow Edgar Fromware, the tyrannical ruler of Horizon (Edgar's father) and the traitorous Knights (who abandoned their justice to suit Edgar and his father's benefit) resulting of Edgar's defeat. Tania helped Rein to defeat Arios (the soon-to-be former "Hero" who she always despised).
After Arios escaped from imprisonment, Tania, Rein and the others set out to kill Arios and the demon lord.
Appearance[]
In her human form, Tania is a beautiful woman who has red hair with red-orange eyes tinting with flaming orange tips. She wears a white dress with detached star sleeves, a long red skirt with some star shapes, and thigh-highs with star shapes at the ends. She still retains her horns and tail, which always stand her out. Anyone who notices usually chalks it up to a form of cosplay.
While her true form is a big dragon with magnificent wings.
Personality[]
Tania is a person who is filled with borne thrillers and amusement. She is shown to love battles, and when the given battle corners her, it makes her even more excited and pumps her with a full throttle of happiness. Though she is arrogant about her abilities, she never underestimates her opponents and shows tremendous tactics, like for an instance, she overdid her first battle with Rein and Kanade with hand-to-hand combat. Being tamed by Rein, she finds him very interesting and decides to follow him, often trying to get close to him, much to Rein's uneasiness and Kanade's jealousy.
As she comes off from Dragon Tribe, she's naturally prideful about it. Because of this, she tends to go all out. She is pretty barbaric at teaching others, being very strict within this aspect. She's yet ignorant, shown when she didn't heed Rein's warning, which later ended up him hurting a little. This caused her very guilty and apologetic. It deeply touches her heart when Rein says she did not have to worry about it since it wasn't her fault. Being fascinated by Rein's kind and generous nature, she falls in love with him but her pride as a dragon would not allow her to accept that. Whenever Rein compliments her, she gets embarrassed and acts little tsundere to him and at the same time shows deep concern for him. She is a diligent dragon who respects her opponent's spirit.
Tamed by Rein, she is very cooperative, helpful, and passionate about her party. She always reminds Rein not to go overboard as she knows Rein is reckless and often calls him "too good of a person," though it's not bad, according to her. Though she'll open about it, she likes to get head pats from Rein and even get jealous when other of his contracts get head pat or get close to him.
Due to Arios banishing Rein, Tania developed a strong hatred towards the soon-to-be formerly Hero and viewed him to be ridiculous and worthless as she continues to relentlessly insulting Orlando for his ignorance and delusional beliefs by always calling Orlando as the worthless hero. She wants to fight Arios and make him suffer for his insolence. Hearing Arios has escaped from prison, Tania wants nothing more but to kill the ex-hero (who Tania always viewed him to be a worthless piece of trash). She also look down the other "hero party" members as she sees them to be worthless and weak (not as much as Arios) as she insulted both Leanne and Mina when she easily defeated the so-called "strongest" magical humans.
She also hates Edgar Fromware for his foolish attempt to steal her fellow companions Sora and Luna.
