Tennant Icon
Exhibition Details
An arcanist's work exhibited in the 1940s for 25 years. Completed in autumn, on September 8. Completed in Birmingham, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, the exhibit was transferred to New Delhi, British India 15 years later and went on an exhibition tour to Paris, French Republic.

Tennant (坦南特) (full name: Ada Tennant) is a Beast Arcanist in Reverse: 1999.

Be careful of this fraudster. Tennant wanders in Paris, offering diamonds to her targets and striking deals. When the fun time's over, those glittering gifts will be restored to their true forms as charcoal.

Tennant Item 1 Tennant Item 2 Tennant Item 3
The hat has an exceptionally wide brim, even among the various hats on the gentlemen's heads in Paris. The wide brim is not only useful for covering her eyes to create a dangerous yet attractive atmosphere, but it also helps her to get away and blend into crowd when her lies are exposed. A revolver wand modified by arcanum technology. It's seldom pulled out, yet it is kept at its best. It is loaded with a special kind of gunpowder designed and mixed by herself. She can turn it into diamond bullets through arcane skill and fire them into her enemy's chest. A cheap accessory bought in New Delhi. Somehow she has kept it till this day. Anyway, it is quite a nice touch on the hat.

Tennant Item 4 Tennant Item 5 Tennant Item 6
A splendidly designed necklace, with the centerpiece gem being especially captivating. She has seen countless dazzling lies, but clearly chosen to reward herself with something authentic while strolling about the familiar old city. A silk mantle of excellent quality that matches the tastefully designed kurta perfectly. Tennant can easily dress herself up as a member of the local gentry, a skill that can be traced to the days when she ambled along the streets of the city. A silver bangle in a winding design that rests upon the wrist. Tennant found it in a small shop in Delhi and succeeded in slashing the asking price to a tenth of what it was in less than twenty minutes. This was a relaxing diversion. In fact, she did not consider the red glass on it to be a flaw.

Some News in 1937

"...An official in British India, Sir Laurence Tennant has gone missing recently. The High Commissioner of the colony has ordered a thorough search of the whole territory of India."

"...Sir Laurence Tennant is a member of the House of Tennant, a famous arcanist family. Before he went missing, he was in charge of diamond mining, identification and transportation in British India for many years."

"...Buckingham Palace has announced the suspension of Laurence Tennant's title and other prerogatives since he is suspected of an arcanum-related crime, theft, fraud and is facing six other charges."

"...The government of British India has officially issued a wanted notice for the senior official, mineralogist, arcanist Laurence Tennant, with a reward of £30,000. This is the largest reward in recent years."

Some News in 1938
40%
"...Laurence Tennant stands accused of an arcanum-related crime, in which he may have turned a batch of diamonds into charcoal on their way to Britain through his arcane skill. The colonial government is still in search of Laurence Tennant and trying to locate the whereabouts of the diamonds and therefore cannot take legal action against the suspect at the moment."

"...A teenage girl named Ada Tennant has gone missing from her home in British India. The British Indian Army and the local police have launched an investigation."

The Parisian "Artist"

Pandora Wilson: What's the difference between Britain, India and France to you?
Tennant: Nothing different, my beautiful lady.
Pandora Wilson: What do you mean?
Tennant: For me, humans are all the same, no matter where they are from.
Tennant: We share the same virtues and the same weaknesses, and we can't do anything about it. They are part of human nature.
Pandora Wilson: In that case, isn't it a bit unfair to treat your "clients" with lies?
Tennant: Well, it is essentially an art, and I'm the artist, my lady. My clients were impressed by my performance and thus left a small fortune that meant nothing to them.
Tennant: They've always been so cooperative that I think they really appreciated my arts.


Birthday Letter[]

1: Many years ago, the Tennants held a birthday banquet for their beloved daughter on this day. But now, almost no one remembers this déclassé family.
2: On this day, countless maidens in Paris went dizzy with love. They all just happened to encounter an elegant, charming gentleman who gave them a unique invitation to a birthday date.
3: On her birthday party, Tennant accidentally disclosed the source of her diamonds and received deposits from numerous rich Arabian merchants.

Wilderness Conversation[]

「Tennant Wilderness Conversation」
Tennant Icon Ironically, diamond itself is a product of lies.
I merely add a new layer to it, won't you agree?


「Tennant - Max Bond Wilderness Conversation」
Tennant Icon Do you want to know how to truly win someone's love and affection?
A single tear is worth a handful of diamonds, you just have to know when to use it.
And when it comes to winning hearts, it's important to know when to appear strong in one moment and vulnerable in the next. A successful disguise should be balanced with moments of authenticity and vulnerability.


With Sonetto[]

Required: N/A

Tennant Icon Oh... beautiful lady, may I have the honor of asking you about some poetry?
Sonetto Icon Are you referring to me...? Of course, I'd be happy to! What style of poetry are you interested in?
Something like expressionism, surrealism, or confessional poetry...
Tennant Icon Unfortunately... I need those that are more romantic, or rather─more favored by ladies.
