Tasi

Mademoiselle Anastasie "Tasi" Trianon (ca. 1910 – March, 1937 or later) is the main protagonist of Amnesia: Rebirth. She was a French engineering drafter who, along with her husband and twelve others, was a member of a colonial mining expedition to the French Sudan that went missing after their plane, the Cassandra, crashed in the Algerian desert on their flight from Algiers to the French Sudan.

Anastasie Trianon, primarily known by her nickname, "Tasi," was born in Paris, France, in or around 1910 to Victor Trianon and an unnamed mother. Tasi had a complex relationship with her father growing up, once telling Salim that she wished she'd known him better. When she turned 16, he forwent the normal parental strictness shown to girls her age (such as a household curfew) and instead gave her a compass, so that she would "always find [her] way home."[8]

During Tasi's teenage years, her father would bring her along on the multiple expeditions to North Africa he led. Hank Mitchell and the Sudanese-born Malick Tamboura were among Victor's closest associates on these expeditions, and both men grew close to Tasi.[9] At some point, her father had an argument with Malick about mules in Marrakesh, a large city in Morocco (much of which was a French Protectorate from 1912–1956),[10] and Tasi attended those travels with all three of them.[5] Due to these excursions, Tasi was well-travelled in North Africa and was considered by Hank to be an experienced expeditionary.[2]

Tasi became an engineering drafter and an artist, where her job was to draw out designs and plans for structures and other technical areas.[2] She participated in engineering projects abroad.[11] Through both this work and earlier travels, she met many of her future companions for the expedition to the French Sudan, the aforementioned Hank and Malick, as well as her husband, Salim Hannachi. It is unknown how exactly Salim and Tasi met, but he likely accompanied one or more of the expeditions she was on, where they got to know each other and then fell in love. This is further due to the fact Salim proposed to Tasi in an Algerian hotel, which indicates that he likely wasn't already living in France when he met her.

Tasi and Salim unofficially married in August 1933 and had their first daughter, Alys, soon after.[12] Despite the fact Salim faced an extended struggle in gaining citizenship, the family of three lived in relative happiness for two years until Alys was unexpectedly diagnosed with an unknown degenerative disease.[12] All attempts to cure Alys failed and she died in Tasi’s arms in 1936, leaving her parents utterly distraught.[2] To make matters worse, Tasi's father, Victor Trianon also died in that window of time.[4] Several months later, Tasi accepted an offer to join a mining expedition to French Sudan from her old friend, Hank Mitchell, who believed that the work and distractions offered by a project would help the two grieving parents begin the healing process.[2]

However, two to three months before the expedition, Tasi and Salim conceived their second child.[1] They both rejoiced in the news, and debated withdrawing from the expedition team, but ultimately decided to come.[1] They both departed to Algiers from Le Bourget airport to join the rest of the team in Algiers before leaving for the French Sudan.[2]

Tasi Trianon has light blue eyes, and brown hair, and appears to be of average height. Her exact age is unknown, but it can be estimated that she is around 25 to 30 years old for numerous reasons. The time she would have spent during numerous expeditions in North Africa with her father, her relationship with Salim, and having a child in 1933 make the possibility of her being under 25 rather unlikely. It is also unlikely that she is much older than 30, due to her general demeanour and easy camaraderie with the younger members of the expedition, such as Yasmin Chabani. Her physical appearance also serves as evidence of her being young, but not altogether youthful.

During the events of Amnesia: Rebirth, Tasi wore a brown shirt, blue pants, boots, a scarf, and a bracelet, along with her wedding ring and the Traveller's amulet. The player can also choose to have Tasi take Salim’s wedding ring off his corpse and wear it on her left thumb.

Also noted that Tasi is already 6 months in and is very heavily pregnant during these tough times.
