Tenago the Not Necromancer is one of the spirits taking turns to possess the dear members of the Dishonoured. He is an ancient being, but having been stuck in a narrow part of the spirit realm tied to the Hall of the Honourless seems to scarred him in ways more profound than a flesh wound. While he is not without arrogance, Tenago is a lot less haughty than Brightness Shi'a. Tenago has seemed close to obsessed with experiencing the pleasures of the flesh again, yet his rambling about tasting or feeling has frequently been interrupted by him taking a keen interest in arcane and biological matters. He has vehemently refused to be a necromancer, the way the tavern drunkard refuses he has a problem with alcohol while ordering his next drink.
His connection to Brightness Shi'a and how he got stuck in the Hall of the Honourless are mysteries that remain to be uncovered.
