She keeps the shop running at the counter when she is not out in the forests and foothills, gathering the raw botanical materials that form the backbone of her husband's work. Short in stature with long black hair and kind brown eyes, she carries herself with a quiet, unhurried warmth that makes the shop feel welcoming even when Thane is deep in his formulas. ## Biography Teresa handles the part of the alchemical trade that demands patience over precision — ranging out from [[Camaar]] into the surrounding forests to harvest herbs, fungi, and other raw ingredients. While she leaves the brewing to [[Thane]], she serves customers at the counter with a gentle manner that keeps the shop's reputation intact. She is content in this arrangement, though her foraging routes sometimes carry her further afield than is wise. On one such excursion into the mountains east of [[Camaar]], Teresa began witnessing what she described as ghostly apparitions near [[Tumbler's Crag]]. Before she could safely return, she was trapped in the caves beneath the crag by the spirits haunting that place. [[Thane]] raised the alarm with the party, and she was eventually found alive — shaken and traumatised but unharmed — cowering in a corner of the cavern after the spirits were destroyed. She was carried out of the cave and escorted back to [[Faelon]] before being reunited with [[Thane]] in [[Camaar]], who rewarded her rescuers generously. ### [[The Bloody Nails|Campaign: The Bloody Nails]] #### [[Session 10.5 - Diverging Paths]] Thane reveals his wife Teresa is missing — she had been gathering herbs in the mountains near Tumbler's Crag and spoke of seeing ghosts before she disappeared; the party agrees to investigate. #### [[Session 11 - The Tale of Salla the Brave]] Found alive but terrified, cowering in the depths of the cave beneath [[Tumbler's Crag]] after the party destroyed the haunting spirits; carried back to [[Faelon]] by Kai in panther form. #### [[Session 12 - How to Start a Rebellion]] Reunited with [[Thane]] in [[Camaar]]; her return prompts Thane to reward the party with rare potions and an alchemy tome.
