Six was a witch woman from the Old World, who appeared in Tamarang and healed the injured Violet who had recently inherited the throne of that land. As an adviser to Queen Violet, Six began to tutor her in a strange magical ability, which she would have the puppet Queen put to use during a series of her fiendish plots. Six eventually usurped the throne of Tamarang, and allied herself with the Imperial Order; losing her life to Shota after having tried to undermine her hold on her domain.

[edit] Biography
[edit] Early Life
Though little was known about Six, it was documented that she was originally from the deep south of the Old World and that she had dealings with the Sisters of the Dark. Remarkably the Sisters actually feared Six, leading many to wonder at what kind of terrible power she possibly had at her disposal.
Shota also speculated that Six was named as such as she was the sixth daughter of her mother and was named Six as a way of shaming her for not being the seventh daughter, as this is a position of importance for a witch woman. Shota also speculated that Six's mother was probably killed by Six for the insult of naming her as such.
[edit] Imperial Order War
At some point following the fall of the Great Barrier, Six made her way to Tamarang. She helped Violet, who had been previously injured by Richard Rahl and hung on the edge of her life. Six healed Violet, even helping to regrow her tongue which had been severed. With Six's teachings, Violet realized that she had the gift for artistry, which had been passed down through the royal bloodline of Tamarang.
Violet assumed the crown of Tamarang with Six as her "adviser". During the entire time Violet reigned, Six helped Violet to learn as much as she could about her gift, instructing her as much as possible. Having positioned herself accordingly, Six successfully underminded the control of her fellow witch woman, Shota, in her own domain. Eventually, Six realized that it was time and had Violet draw a spell on Richard that caused him to lose both sides of his gift. This also would eventually allow Six to capture Richard, but when she returned to Tamarang with him, she would lose him to soldiers of the Imperial Order.
When she delivered the news to Violet about losing Richard, Violet became violent. At that point, Six flexed her power, cowing the girl and then assumed the position of Queen of Tamarang herself.
[edit] Personality and traits
Six had long black, straw like hair that curtained an extremely gaunt and pale face. Long black robes clothed her thin form, giving her face the appearance of a floating orb, due to its contrast in color with her hair and robes. Her fingers were claw like and her eyes a washed out pale blue.
