Thessa has woody brown skin, long blonde hair and cinnamon eyes, a rarity amongst her people. She most often wears clothing that is both practical and pleasing to the eye. In the southern lands, her homeland, she tends towards form fitting flowing garments made of silk and light cotton. When visiting her friends in the north, she dresses in warm bundles of heavy cotton or wool. Regardless, she always looks stylish. She stands 3 feet 10 inches tall and weighs 45 lbs.Background: Thessa is the daughter of a rockwood gnome forester, Villey Simmial. She is the first daughter born to the Simmial family in two generations and has four older brothers. Pushed, from a very early age, to enter the priesthood of Gaerdal, Thessa found herself at odds with her father over the spiritual path that she should take.Thessa’s parents had prayed fervently to Gaerdal for a girl after having had four sons. They had promised the god that Thessa would become a devote priestess to The Stern. Gaerdal was moved by the gnome couples devotion and blessed them with a girl. However, Baervan, known as the Masked Leaf, took a shine to the newborn gnome girl from an early age and bestowed upon her a love of nature and an insatiable desire to wander.Thessa had no desire to follow the path of The Stern, even though she admires the Gnome God of Protection and War as much as any of her kin. She was always disappearing into the depths of Heverkent Forest to explore and play with the animals. As she spent more and more time following the path of Baervan, Gaerdal saw that forcing Thessa into his priesthood would only suffocate the young gnome girl’s spirit. He appeared to Thessa in a dream and gave his consent that Thessa was free to join Baervan’s clergy.Thessa’s father felt that his daughter owed it to Gaerdal to forgo her desires and join his clergy anyway. Villey knew that life, as a cleric of Baervan, would take his daughter away from him due to the priesthood’s dogma of traveling the world. He wished for his daughter to remain close to home and would have put his foot down had his wife, Anna, not interceded on her daughter’s behalf. Gaerdal had manifested a warning to Anna, telling her that tragedy would befall the gnomes of Mount Rockwood if Thessa wasn’t allowed to choose her own path.</blockquote>
