Born on Rihdan Isle in the Indigo Deep, to a reclusive village of Miqo'te of primarily Seekers of the sun. Tessa was always something of an outcast. Her Keeper of the moon blood showing quite boldly in her fair skin and dark hair.
Never having met her father, and her birth mother having died when she was very young. She was raised in the care of her half sister's household, with traditions rather different to that of keepers of the moon, or seekers of the sun.

The village gave worship to Menphina, and wore white body paints upon themselves, eschewing clothing except when necessary for protection during hunting, or to shield from rare snowstorms. They fiercely hid away from sailors whom would occasionally make landfall to weather storms between Tural and Eozea, where they would gather fruits and other supplies from the jungles.Tessa herself was not a sociable youth, preferring solitude over rambunctious play with others, finding companionship in only her half sister, to which she shared a name-day and a kinship. Together they would watch from the trees whenever visitors found themselves upon their island, and would make up stories about the adventures of these gruff pirates or well dressed merchants they observed.At the age of 16, Tessa left her island aboard one of the visiting ships after her people had aided in repairing the damaged vessel following a particularly rough storm. After a troubling voyage, she found herself at vesper bay. A small carriage ride later, Tessa stepped into the city of Ul'dah, where she began her life as an adventurer.

She joined the Immortal Flames, fought in myriad battles grand and small, rose through the ranks, and eventually partook in essential operations to support the Warriors of Light and their struggle at Cartenau.On that fateful day, she gave her life battling the voidal beast Atomos at camp Blue Fog, attempting to keep the Aetheryte from being drained, and keeping essential travel for adventurers and soldiers open.That would not be the end of her tale however. Spirited away by the beast into the realm of The Void itself, Tessa was reborn thanks to the intervention of the mother crystal Hydaelyn and the once lost soul of an Allagan resistance fighter of ages past. Merged in spirit, she was able to find the strength to escape The Void, arriving some five years later in the Twelveswood.

○ Former soldier:
Tessa once served within the Immortal Flames before the Calamity, and The Order of the Twin Adder afterward. She still holds some connections within both forces.○ Touched by the void:
The calamity affected many lives in the five years of recovery. Tessa spent that time trapped within the Void. It's corrupting aether still lingers within her, giving her an ability to sense voidal creatures.○ Professional Chef:
Perhaps her first love, Upon her return from the void, Tessa was rehabilitated through learning to cook, what started as therapeutic, became a proud passion that she still pursues whenever able.○ Memories of Allag:
Thanks to her joined soul; Tessa is gifted, or plagued, by memories of Allag. Specifically of the life and experiences of a resistance fighter opposing the resurrected Emperor Xande. Wether her knowledge comes off as fanciful insanity, or valuable wisdom is often tested by the person she chooses to confide in.○ A Shared Face:
Between leaving home, and arriving in Eorzea, Tessa’s ship was attacked by Garlean agents sent to take captives for experimentation. Tessa was one of the successes in replicating Allagan cloning and replaced the original as a sleeper agent. The 7th Calamity, her joining of souls, and the state of Garlemald in recent days put an end to any plans for her. But there were 7 other clones, their fates are unknown.○ Heart of Crystal:
Tessa’s body is but a shell, and whilst not indestructible, she can heal from injuries that would be crippling for others. This miraculous endurance is due to her nature as a clone, her heart replaced by a soul crystal, acting as the core of her being.○ Lost Heritage:
Tessa's progenitor, the original Tessa Jalloh, was born to Rihdan Isle in the Indigo Deep. And though it's location is a mystery to her, she hopes to one day visit the birthplace seared into her memories, and seeks it's location from whatever knowledge she can find.

○ Devout of Menphina:
Tessa offers her prayer to the goddess of love, Menphina. And whilst physical love is only part of the grace of her goddess, it is one she shares with others quite willingly, for both personal pleasure, and in honor of her faith.○ Easily aroused:
It takes surprisingly little to get Tessa in the mood. What happens from there needs no explanation.○ Curious and open:
Tessa has a habit of going with the flow, and is happy to try most things at least once. Every experience is an adventure.○ Heavy sleeper:
Once sleeping, Tessa will likely not be waking up until she's gotten her fill. You could do anything to her, and she'll stay fast asleep.

Miya Sha

No truer friend could one have wanted, Miya may not have been family in the strictest sense, but she was an ally on the battlefield, and a confidant through many years. The two were members of several free companies together.She is missed every day. Rest well in the light of the crystal.

Lillith Cale

Though she'd take offense at the suggestion, Tessa considers Lillith to be a motherly figure to her. Or at the very least that of an older sister.
Leader of Dragon Army free company, Lillith took Tessa into her employ with nary a question asked of her history or the strange nature of her fanciful tales.
She is someone Tessa can and has confided in about many of her struggles, doubts, fears, and hopes. And each and every one of Tessa and Philnia's children adore her as 'Auntie Lillith'.

Meta Xi

An Enigma, wrapped in a question, obscured in a riddle. Tessa still doesn't truly know what to think of Meta but respects him as a swordsman, as a friend, and as a teacher.
His instruction was vital for shaping her into the samurai she is, whether he knows it or not.

Philnia Jalloh

Tessa's Beloved Wife, fiery haired and greedy for Tessa's attention, she won her heart through that most ancient of techniques. Absolute stubbornness.
A former samurai from a prominent family. Philnia moved west due to betrayal, she has only recently picked up the blade again due to Tessa's influence. She is a fearsome sight both on the battlefield, and at home as mother to a large family rambunctious miqo'te children.

Amneko Jalloh

Born to a seeker of the sun tribe, Amneko fled the expectation that she would simply become the wife of the tribe's Nunh, and in her self imposed exile adopted the name R'ryokone ango. Though she found a new family in the Dragon Army free company, it wasn't until Tessa and Philnia made her a sworn sister that she chose to truly embrace her birth name, now proudly going by Amneko, sister of Clan Jalloh.
