Tengaar is the daughter of Zorak, the leader of Warriors' Village. Tengaar grew up with Hix and eventually the two would grow from childhood friends to become lovers.

Tengaar was kidnapped by Neclord, who planned to make her his bride. Hix set out to free her and with the help of the Toran Liberation Army succeeded. Following the battle, Tengaar, along with Hix, joined the Toran Liberation Army.

Following the end of the Gate Rune War, Tengaar finished her service in the Liberation Army and accompanied Hix on a journey in order to help him in his coming-of-age ritual.

Tengaar and Hix eventually travelled to the City-State of Jowston in order to undergo the Test of the Unicorn in Kobold Village. With the help of the leader of the New State Army, Tengaar and Hix underwent the trial. In the end, the unicorn Sigfried appeared before them and recognized Hix as a warrior.

Though their reason for coming to the City-States of Jowston was complete, Tengaar and Hix joined the New State Army in gratitude. Following the end of the Dunan Unification War, Tengaar continued to journey with Hix while waiting for him to propose.
