Tressa Shadowbane

PUBLIC INFORMATION

Rhymes with Nessa and confess-a

Tressa is a Tiefling cleric out to make money, hunt prey, and enjoy whatever the world has to offer. She avoids discussing her past and doesn't seem all that comfortable with the structures of religion despite her goddess-given abilities. Milagros has her absolute loyalty. Though from the Inkwaters, she has absolutely no intention at all of returning there and strives to acclimate to the unfortunately bright waters above. 


Tressa has flowing fins that resemble a beta fish, glows with an enticing blue bioluminescence, and has the best ass in her Pod.

She is a member of the pod Prism and wears her emblem/cord on her belt loops, hanging down in swoops.


Tressa struggles to connect with her new podmates in their early days together. Tending to Citalli's injury helps endear him to her, but she is jealous of Tatrin Var's wealthy background, hurt by Xendario's disregard for her boundaries, and annoyed by Unknown's (apparent) foolishness. They are, at least, useful co-workers. Gradually, she learns to trust and begins to open up. Still, she naturally shares the most with Mila - including a vison from Dionadier of Mila's destiny. Along the way, Tressa finds confidence in her freedom, growing power, and fattenting purse.

It is only when the pod nearly breaks up over Roth's secrets that Tressa discovers who much she cares about them all. She becomes particularly fond Roth, who is less foolish and much more like Tressa than he has pretended. Her confidence is shaken by the upset relationships around her, encountering the powerful and prejudiced Valiance, and word of debt collectors in the region.
