Contessa

Contessa was a Surgefinder and Contessa's character.

Personality
Contessa is a playful, teasing person, but she can be serious when the occasion calls for it.

RP1:
Contessa first came into the story during the meeting at Urithiru, shortly after Teshani was stabbed. She offers to help with Cole, then leaves, saying she needs to check something that has to do with the Ghostbloods out.

She is next seen on the roof of Urithiru with the others, insisting that they can't count on her because she'll have to go back and watch the Ghostbloods again. When everyone heads to Kholinar, she goes too. When Cole and Sam fight, she almost joins in, but ends up not doing anything; she then tries to catch Tesh, but fails, since Tesh can Windrun. She helps Varaseel explain what happened to Mathis when he shows up.

When Sam is ready to kill Tesh, she steps in and helps dissuade her with a hand on the shoulder. Some time later, she notices a window that Sam jumped out of; Buzz tells her she's not ready to transfer to the Cognitive Realm, but Tess jokes that it's never stopped her before and does it anyway. She gets herself to Kholinar like that, where Sam and Cole are facing off again, and hides so she can help if needed.

Tess uses Lightweavings and her Shardblade to fight Cole with the others until they all either leave or are defeated. When Flux arrives, she listens to what he says and asks him to take her to Vara; then she sets off with her Blade in hand. When they reach where Varaseel used to be and she isn't there, Flux becomes upset, so Contessa and Buzz discuss what to do. Buzz informs her that he can find Vara in the Cognitive Realm.

Post-RP:
Contessa did not reappear; it's theorized that she instead left to live her life without fighting the Splinter.

Investiture
Contessa is a Lightweaver.

Quotes
"When has that ever stopped me?" - Contessa after Buzz tells her she's not ready

Relationships
She seems to be friendly with her Cryptic Buzz, though the two didn't interact much.
