History
Erenmyr
Thalena named Spin while living among the frogs in Erenmyr. They trained together, and Spin, Gin and Splin tried to comfort her during her solitude.
Spin took a liking to Maric when he and Renneth entered the swamp. She carried him through Lirathen and to the village where they found a hidden gate beneath Deylin and Ilyra's house. Maric initially believed he had chosen her name himself; Thalena later explained that she had named the frogs long before. After Xalmyrra's cycles broke, Spin accompanied Maric and Renneth on their northward expedition.
Evolution and war
Spin helped Maric keep their boat afloat through northern storms. In Hanamizu, she and Gin chose to stay behind rather than slow their companions. They later found Maric near Qarezh, having evolved into astragons on their own.
Spin carried Maric before directing him toward Gin and flying separately toward Ulzathir. She joined Splin at Ishtanûr, where the astragons' warning prompted the allied army to retreat. Aelius escaped on her back.
As Gabriel's hurricane approached, Spin flew to Rhylois. She later carried troops with Gin toward the forces inside the storm. Before descending with Myrelia to contain her overload, Maric asked Eliona to care for both astragons. Spin subsequently returned with Gin and Glin to the makeshift lake behind Chronasis.
Thalena's Shores of Eternity
In Thalena's account, Spin responded to her call during the approaching apocalypse. She, Gin and Glin flew toward Thalassai's regions as Thalena spread the warning.
Relationships
- Maric: Her bonded companion and rider. He spoke fondly of her and trusted her guidance, while she chooses her own movements and helps his allies.
- Gin: Her fellow frog and astragon. They traveled together with Maric and Renneth, remained together in Hanamizu and returned to find Maric after evolving.
- Thalena: She named and trained with Spin in Erenmyr. Spin was one of the companions who comforted her when she missed human company.
