Fanon:Tessa Swanson

Tessa Swanson, born February 25, 2000, is a member of the Church of Alexandros, training to be its first intelligence operative, something that Kallisto found needed ever since Antigone's maverick departure to Appaloosa Plains. Tessa is only superficially flirty: the trait was a trained one to facilitate intelligence gathering operations. In reality, Tessa is more of a romantic, something that Kallisto notes and wants to suppress.

As a newcomer, Tessa is in training, and is trained according to the Church doctrines, learning skills as required by the Church before being assigned any role. Logic was of course emphasized, but as an intelligence officer, Tessa's training focused on Writing, and since the Union had no skills in Photography whatsoever, Tessa was to develop the skill on her own, the only support given by the single elementary level Photography tome.

Tessa is reasonably skilled, and unlike other members, is expected to train on the job, somewhat necessary due to the lack of higher Photography skill tomes. Tessa however is reasonably skilled, having 8 points in logic, 6 points in writing (to write reports back to the Church), 4 points in Martial Arts and Gardening, 3 in Handiness, Charisma and Painting, and one in Photography and Inventing.

Appearance
Tessa Swanson has a fine face, having a relatively small face size with decent eye size and small nose with red hair worn long. Tessa wears a pale peach coat and a white shirt accompanied by a black tie, alongside black leather skirts that go down to the knees and black boots. This outfit is same for both casual and formal wear, and this relatively stylish choice (compared to the more veteran members) reflects on her role as an intelligence officer, as Tessa's role sometimes require her not to be identified to be of the Church, which is part of the reason why the Church did not aggressively make changes to her body to reduce bust size.

Tessa has droopy eyes, always appearing sleepy. Some speculate that Tessa is brainwashed by the Core members such as Kallisto, although no solid evidence is available.

China
The Union demand for exotic tomes eventually led them to travel overseas, and Tessa would accompany them for the sole reason of using the vacation days to train, and succeeded for the most part, now having a level 8 logic skill along with other supplementary skills, and Tessa was also given opportunities to adventure by the locals, and Tessa was able to complete one of the easy Chinese tombs.

First Assignment
After some basic training, Kallisto deemed Tessa ready for her first assignment: Kallisto dispatched Tessa to Appaloosa Plains, where Tessa was to gather and report public activities undertaken by Antigone: Tessa's primary objective was to verify that Antigone was not doing anything that was heretical to the doctrine of the Church, that is, having romantic affairs. There, Tessa met up with her estranged sibling Nicole, who was quite eager to hear about Tessa's experience with the Greeks. There Tessa started to show her true flavor as a romantic just like her estranged sibling Nicole, and despite that, dutifully went on gathering intelligence for the Church.
