Background

Born and raised in the Dellinzer Crevasse, Twessa spent her first 45 years within her close-knit community, getting to know her family, learning to survive the perils of The Frozen North, and finding her path within the faith of Sagrae.

Still a young gnome, Twessa sought adventure and travelled south with her clan's traders, taking on whatever work she could get until one day she received a divine inspiration fiercer than the rest: the goddess Sagrae demanded that she investigate the Tapestry of Wonder and `resolve' it. Twessa isn't sure what that means, but...hopefully she can figure it out.

Appearance

With big green eyes, berry-red hair, unblemished skin, and an athletic figure, Twessa is, or was, quite a pretty young gnome. Its hard to know what to call her since the goddess Sagrae bestowed her blessings.

Thin, clawed fingers and toes replaced the softer gnomy digits Twessa once had, and while her skin is still quite clear, its...different. Shinier, and brighter, sparkling when the light hits it. Its also cooler to the touch, and firmer, and just a little...scaly?

The friendly gnome's broad smile, once harmless and inviting, now reveals sharpened teeth more normally associated with the bestial, and could be easily be mistaken by a stranger as a threat rather than an invitation.

And...then there are the wings...between her shoulders, or part of them really, covered in the same firm, sparkling skin that confirmed them now to be a part of her. Twessa now has a wingspan of around 3 feet, though thats of little real use, for now.

Since losig her armor due to recent (acidic) events, and longing far more strongly for the feeling of sunlight on her skin, Twessa favors the wearing of loose cloth tunics and leggings (usually yellow or blue), with a nice sturdy pair of boots to help her weather the unpredictable world she moves through.

Personality

Twessa is a positive little sunbeam, always trying to see the brighter side of whatever obstacles stand in her way. Rain may be annoying but its better than being lost in the desert. And yes, she almost died to a tiger that one time, but she also made a friend in Harlin! How entirely worthwhile!

Having grown up in a secluded township, Twessa lacks the breadth of knowledge enjoyed by those with more exposure to the world, but she has a talent for successfully feeling her way through tricky and uncommon situations - guided by the tenets of her faith, of course. To be polite, to wait for wisdom, and to seize opportunity.

In addition to a thirst for adventure, Twessa is fond of competition and a frequent gambler. While she wants to win, she's happy to take a chance on herself even if she doesn't have experience, as long as the challenge seems fun or exciting.
