Tancred Lasalle (Chronos 22, 176 AF – ?) was a noted librarian and scholar who lived at 15 Stagira Boulevard, Ashtan. He was the widower of Lucrecia and the uncle of Orson and Josiah Lasalle.

His first notable literary achievement was winning Sarapis' grand poetry contest with his epic, Final Resting for Travian Shea. For this, his name was immortalised in a new artefact, the Lasallian Lyre, which he won a copy of.

Tancred's most well-known achievements, however, are the first and second installments of his Seleucarian Empire trilogy. The first is a compilation of documents that pieces together a history of the founding of the empire and the strike of the Black Wave. The second is a compilation which attempts to narrate, through letters, legal documents, and other historical flotsam, the course of the Wars of Succession.
