Commander Tenzin was an officer that was part of the Unity Army formed during the last year of the Tribulation, and one of the officers present among those standing in the room with Nicolae Carpathia in the underground bunker in Solomon's Stables in "Glorious Appearing". He was given the task of beating Ipswich to death with a rattan rod for his impropriety toward his supreme leader, and was also sent to do the same to the recently demoted Security and Intelligence officer Suhail Akbar.
