On the short side for a gnome, Tessorielle is a fit and sturdy woman with a thick mane of bright copper-red curls that seem determined to defy restraint. She has pale gray-green eyes and a nose that is a bit stunted by gnomish standards. Cheerful and sometimes overly inquisitive, she does have some rather unseemly magpie tendencies.

When traveling, she's typically attired in leather armor and a belt with numerous small, tasseled pouches sewn to it, armed with a short sword and a bandolier of darts, and the ubiquitous cloak and backpack of gear. Out of armor, she's usually found in a tunic, breeches, and boots, and the ever-present tasseled belt.
