[[Image:Taldeer UncertainFuture.jpg|thumb|right|Kindly ignore the breast located halfway down her torso. <strike>No one can now that its been pointed out</strike> Turn your contrast up, she's poking out the top. Yes it's hard to see, so look '''closer.''']]
'''Taldeer''' is an [[Eldar]] [[Farseer]] originally featuring in [[Dawn of War]]: [[Dawn of War#Winter Assault|Winter Assault]] expansion and the second expansion [[Dawn of War#Dark Crusade|Dark Crusade]], strangely, both times as the leader of the Eldar faction. She is most well known on /tg/ for being one of the protagonists of the awesome piece of writefaggotry known as [[Love Can Bloom]], alongside the [[Vindicare]] assassin [[LIIVI]].

In most [[drawfag]]gotry not actually directly related to the content of Love Can Bloom, Taldeer and LIIVI are assumed to have escaped from their predicament in Love Can Bloom and are living happily together on Ulthwé with a child known as [[Lofn]]. Taldeer is sometimes depicted as a daughter of Farseer [[Eldrad]], with [[Macha]] being her sister. Fellow Farseer [[Caerys]] has a bit of a thing for her.

Recently, it was believed that [[Macha]] shot and murdered Taldeer in her sleep for being an insufferable bitch. It is unknown whether the story is false, or whether Taldeer was raised as an animate corpse at the bidding of her father. Considering the story took place when Macha was fifteen and doesn't mention [[LIIVI]], more than likely it took place only within Macha's own mind.

It was revealed in [[Dawn of War 2]]: Retribution that Taldeer was killed by the Blood Ravens (As told by Azariah as he taunts [[Ronahn]] before the Exterminatus). As [[Ronahn]] was her twin brother, the Eldar campaign is all about saving Taldeer's soulstone. Which is <strike>[[gay]]</strike> touching.

On the other hand when was the last time Chaos told the truth about anything? For all we know Kyras just killed a body double and didn't care enough to tell the difference. Or he made up the story about killing Taldeer completely to fuck with Ronahn, he's kind of a dick like that.

But if you're a stickler for canon, Taldeer returns in [[Dawn of War III]] as a [[Wraithknight]]. While the loss of her mortal coil sucks, on the bright side she does get a nifty sword. Like every Wraithknight, they have a pilot that must have similar soul connection to each other, meaning Ronahn has to pilot it. [[Approved anime|Clearly, Eldrad was the one that tells Ronahn to get in the damn wraithknight]].

Though since Dawn of War III was [[skub|okay at best]], some fa/tg/uys have taken to either ignoring it entirely or reimagining it to once again fit Love Can Bloom, namely making there be a turn for [[grimdark]] so that it no longer conflicts with the official canon. No serious writefaggotry has come of this yet, however.

On one final note; despite her having red hair (assuming it is hair and not something attached to her helmet like a Greek Hoplite crest and her twin having white hair) for her in-game sprite, 95% of her fan-art has black hair.

==Codex Taldeer==
Now you too can field this potent Farseer in your army.

*'''Runic Armour of Taldeer:''':
:A unique set armour that Taldeer wears on the field of battle. Being comprised of a Ghosthelm, as well as a combination of runes and armoured Wraithbone plating, this piece of wargear makes the wearer incredibly difficult to kill and grants supreme, if not uncommon protection. The runes themselves allow the Farseer to utilize her powers more efficiently.

:'''The Runic Armour of Taldeer''' grants both a 3+ Sv and a 4+ Inv Save. In addition, it allows for the same capabilities as a Ghosthelm. If Taldeer manages to roll a 6 while passing a Deny The Witch test, she gains a free Warp Charge.
