My pupil, the next summit awaits. Are you ready to make the climb?
—Teshin

Teshin is the Conclave Master, who resides within the Conclave Hall of the Relays. He is responsible for the management of the Conclave PvP System, providing incentives through various rewards that can be earned through Conclave battles.

Lore

  • Teshin is an individual from the Orokin era, who was one of the few who did not enter cryosleep. How he has remained alive for this long however, is unknown.
  • In Devstream 50, it was confirmed that he is not a Tenno.
  • He blames the fall of the Orokin on the Lotus, who led the Tenno 'complacent like oxen'.
  • Teshin references the upcoming Sentient arrival by insisting the Tenno use the Conclave to fight their greatest enemy, themselves, in order to grow stronger, to prepare themselves for 'horrors' beyond the Outer Terminus.

Natah

During the Natah quest, after Lotus breaks off communication with the Tenno, Teshin appears, offering to guide the player and help them figure out why. By the time Lotus notices, the Tenno and Teshin are already hot on the trail of Tyl Regor and his excavation team.

Notably, Tyl Regor calls Teshin a "pseudo-Tenno," and implies at least some familiarity between the two.

The War Within

During quest it is revealed that Teshin is a Dax soldier, one of the warrior caste created by the Orokin and used as personal guardians. Unfortunately for him, the Grineer Queens possess a Kuva Scepter, marking them as members of the Orokin Elite. As result of his Dax heritage, Teshin is mentally incapable of refusing their orders, though his loathing for the Twins is made quite clear.

In the quest, Teshin suggests that Margulis did a disservice to Tenno by concealing and erasing their past. Partly to rectify this and partly to save the player's life, Teshin guides the player's operator (via astral projection) through a mountain temple on Earth, an Orokin theater previously used for countless Orokin Continuity rituals. Thanks to Teshin's guidance the player's Operator regains full use of their powers, and teleports into the Kuva Fortress using their Warframe. In the ensuing battle the Queens' Guardians and Teshin's physical body are defeated, and the Elder Queen loses possession of her Scepter, freeing Teshin from her thrall.

Trivia

  • His voice actor is Sean Phillips. [1]
  • His helmet makes him look similar to a Kappa, a Japanese mythological water imp with a plate full of water on the top of its head.
    • The style itself is also reminiscent of a kasa, a traditional Japanese hat commonly worn by monks and warriors.
  • Teshin is the second syndicate leader to have multiple intro voice lines, with the first being Cephalon Suda.
  • He wields a Nikana and a Nikana shōtō, both having Gemini Nikana Sheaths.
