Kaiara Jade Taliaros was a female Human Askarai and Child of the Empress. She was the Second Daughter of the Empress, third-in-command of the Children after Saraia and Radon, alongside her soulmate Zen.

Biography
Kaiara Taliaros was born on Qel-dora, a scavenger world which was considered evil and disorganized. At school she was constantly bullied for her overly friendly behavior and for the fact she was different. One day, she was being badly beaten by her bullies. After many pleas to stop, Kaiara snapped and discovered she had magic abilities. She then proceeded to torture her bullies through energy bending, and after some time they were killed. In the aftermath, Kaiara murdered all the students and staff at her school.

After this event, one of Liana's children informed her of a special person with a rare ability. Kaiara willingly joined Liana, for the purpose of creating a tolerant society where everyone could live in peace.

Personality
Kaiara was a sadistic and cruel being, just like her soulmate. She was a ruthless woman and was excited to tortomure dozens of beings. Despite her loyalty to the United Empire and to her master, Kaiara did not hesitate to beg for her life when Seth was choking her. She did love her soulmate, Zen, genuinely. When Zen was killed by Asami, Kaiara screamed in horror and was extremely angry.

Kaiara believed herself to be unstoppable, but when her powers were subverted, she quickly panicked and ran away.

Before her change, Kaiara was a compassionate and friendly person, but snapped when she was nearly beaten to death by her bullies. As a result, she became a sadistic and cruel person to those who opposed her. Alissa once remarked that she felt sympathy for her as she had heard about her past and that she reminded her a bit of herself. Alissa also stated she could have been a valuable ally, but everyone believed she was far beyond redemption.

Powers and abilities
Kaiara was a strong Askarai, like her soulmate, she was trained in energy manipulation. Kaiara was very proficient in the use of energy bending to torture her opponents, something that rendered her near invincible. Kaiara was strong in the use of telekinesis. Despite her abilities, she lacked in combative attacks and when her torture ability was rendered useless, she panicked. Kaiara did not know how to fight and apparently had no unarmed combat experience, as she lied shaking on the ground when Seth punched her. Despite wielding a krysala, she could not handle it well, as she was disarmed within seconds after trying to attack Seth.

After being defeated by Seth, he removed her connection to magic. Kaiara was forever traumatized by this and the fact she lost everything, she had to be put in a mental institution for the rest of her life. When Alissa visited a year later, she replied with erratic and cryptic sentences about her soulmate or her enemies.
