Grandsuur Tamura

Grandsuur Tamura is a senior avout bearing the Grandsuur title at the Concent. She is best known for rigorous instruction of fids, notably a focused review of the Iconographies organized around Apert.

Overview

An exacting instructor and long‑resident member of the math, Tamura directs practical preparations for contact with the Sæculum. Her teaching is framed as safety training and emphasizes recognizing outsider narratives and responding with clarity and precision.

Appearance and Traits

Tamura is consistently referred to as female. Her manner is direct and unsentimental: she corrects usage, presses for precise answers, and chooses close quarters for lessons so that attention cannot wander. Remarks such as “Spare me the poetry” capture her no‑nonsense style.

Roles and Actions

• Leads thirty‑two fids in Saunt Grod’s chalk hall for an intensive survey of named iconographies at the request of the Warden Fendant. She questions pupils rapidly (including Fraa Erasmas and peers) and steers the group toward practical risk awareness; in that climate the Moshianic is judged most hazardous. Her instruction is explicitly used as a lens when avout later analyze outsider talk; the Brumasian Iconography is cited in connection with the Warden of Heaven.
• Earlier, she is observed standing watchfully near the Refectory exit as Tenners pass by with bowls during preparations around Apert.
• She is seen traveling by punt along the river inside the grounds with Grandsuur Ylma, a scene that prompts nearby avout to keep to the edges until they have gone by.

Relationships

• Professional association with Grandsuur Ylma; both hold senior roles and are seen together within the grounds.
• Interacts with the Warden Fendant in her role as instructor responding to extramuros attention.
• As an instructor she engages Fraa Erasmas and other fids directly during drills and reviews.

Current Status

Active within the concent as an instructor and presence in communal spaces during the season around Apert; no travel beyond the walls is indicated.
