History

A somewhat shallow Riverhaven socialite, Tatia's head was turned by the attentions of Lord Byron Dunshade, whom she married. After the birth of their daughter, Tatia discovered the joys of motherhood, reveling in little Laurel's every gesture. Insanely jealous, Lord Byron killed the baby, Tatia, and then himself. Some say you can still hear her ghost sobbing in the halls of Dunshade Manor.

Underground Passage

• Lord Byron gazes tenderly upon his wife and child. Tatia holds the infant with a gentleness that bespeaks her intense love.

Study

• The portrait shows a raven-haired beauty with delicate features. Her wavy hair shimmers, and tendrils curl over her shoulders. Large blue eyes are framed with long dark lashes, and a gentle smile curves her lips. An engraved plaque is mounted to the bottom of the frame.

An engraved plaque reads:

To my beloved husband -- My love for all eternity, Tatia
