Tessa Dragonkin's page

You hear a shriek from behind you and see a tiny little blue dragon about 2 feet tall staring at her nails that are long and sharp. "Oh! I chipped a nail digging out of that stupid rubble! What kind of a place is this to have all that fall in anyway?!" She effortlessly leaps up on some of the rubble and stares up at the blocked light and huffs. "Well, even with my size, I don't think we're getting back out that way."

She looks around at the others and sighs. "Well if we're going to be stuck here together, I guess we ought to know each other. I'm Tessa. And yes, I'm dragon and yes, I'm supposed to be this big." That last line is delivered in a tone that clearly has explained this before. Her scales are mostly blue with a mix of purple as well. She wears leather armor on top of a black crop top and hot pants. While you don't see any weapons, she clacks her nails on a piece of nearby rubble and you see it scratch the surface. She tries to smile sweetly, though her sharp dragon teeth make it slightly disconcerting.

"Vinny?! What a revolting nickname for a Dragon. I think you should properly address him as 'Vermithor', which is his proper name."

Tessa rolls her eyes and snickers. "Vermithor! Nah, he's always going to be Vinny to me, no matter what some self-important dragonfolk want to call him. I mean, no one calls me 'Tessarion' except my ma and only when she wants to piss me off good. And anyone here trying to piss me off will get a taste of these!" She flashes her dagger-like nails at Hailong.

Since this is Beginner Box, it might be a good time to try out a new class to see how it works. I will say that Commander is fairly complex, not just in terms of understanding its own abilities, but also how other players can use the reactions that you provide. There can also be added complexity with the PbP format in adjudicating reactions (i.e. you would have been able to give a reaction for something, but that person posted before you.) Just know that going in.

This is also played in Adventure mode, so you don't have to apply the credit to the specific character you play.

"Oh so you're the Tessa I've been hearing about? My cousin Huang-Tong told me that a certain Vermithor mentioned you. I thought I'd come and see for myself who you are!"

Tessa clacks her long nails on the table loudly for a moment. "Oh, you know Vinny? My cousin is a sweet kid, but not the most put together, ya know what I mean?" She tosses her head, flipping the ribbons tied onto her tiny dragon horns. "I kinda figure if that kid can join the Pathfinders, I ought to have it made."

A bit more Italian-Jersey than I expected, but... *shrug* Where Vermithor is a blunt instrument, Tessa will be a switchblade.

Hi Everyone!

This will be Tessa's first run, so I'll be testing out how she plays. The biggest thing (smallest?) to note is that she is TINY, which mostly means that she cannot flank enemies. She also has to be in the creature's square to attack it. We're going to test how detrimental that is, especially at level 1.

Don;t worry, what she lacks in size, she makes up for in attitude.
