Terlemaine

The terlemaines, is a currently devasted and almost extinct (and destroyed) race of strange-looking and unique people. They appear to have the body of a tiger, and appear be cold perhaps. Its almost extinct, and the character Tye is the last of them.

The race was killed and devasted by the cruel Blue Queen, whom name is unknown so that she is only known by this "term".

The race lived outside around the Blue Queens blue tall palace or castle. They lived around the Dark Forest, and the grasslands around the structure, and near the river.

Origin and beginning
Not very much is known about the terlemaines. Only that Tye is the last of them, and that they had lived in Rondo, but was killed by the Blue Queen.

The Dark Times and almost-extinction
A long time had past, and suddenly then the Blue Queen striked upon the terlemaines, and killed any of them, but imprisonned one of them. The last of them. That was Tye.

Tye the last of the terlemaine
Tye appears in The Key to Rondo, and is the old man Conker's friend, and also Freda's friend. She is also Hal the wizard's friend. They all three found Tye and freed her from the Blue Queen's castle, and she agreed to help them to stop the Queen, and end the Dark Times.

Illustration
On some version of The Key to Rondo books, a image of Tye's can be found at the back, by Allen Douglas and Martin McKena.
