Nickname: "Most people call me Tessa..I have other nick names though, Addy, Anna, Ry, Mont, Gomery, Nana..anything really.." Tessa loves nicknames actually..she enjoys getting them and giving them.
Age: "Legally old enough to tell you to fuc-..I'm nineteen." She is turning twenty in a few weeks.
Gender: "We aren't the brightest crayon in the box, are we? I'm clearly, let me repeat that clearly female." Tessa is of the female species.. "Glad we cleared that up."
Role: "I'm a lone half-breed..aren't I special?" Ashley Benson
Appearance: "Honestly, why do you want to know this? You have eyes."
Most girls are self-conscious, Tessa being one of the worse. She wears make-up to cover up her freckles, ever since she was a child her mother told her, "Your skin must be perfect to dance." She takes time to pick out outfits just so people don't think differently of her. One look and you know she's a dancer, she is only 5'2" but she likes to say 5'2" and a half and she only weighs 115 pounds. She's a ballerina, which means she's very tone but not too muscular; also she messed around with playing a little soccer. She is very petite but has curves in all the right places. Everything about her is small; her hands, feet, and even her nose or so she thinks. She is a naturally curly headed blonde, but as she got older it got a bit darker so she began getting blonde highlights and she sometimes straightens it and it reaches a little below the middle of her back. She has very blue eyes with very dark blueish grey color around the edge that fade to a lighter blue toward the iris, once you get to the iris it has a green color around it which seems to mix in with the blue, very alluring to say the least, but some days they are just a simple grayish blue color. You can usually tell her mood by her eyes..they seem to darken and lighten, it's kinda like reading her soul. She has a small rounded nose and well rounded lips. Straight white teeth, including a soft melodic voice. She has three tattoos, none of them crazy huge. Her largest one is a white ink tattoo, which she can honestly say it might be her favorite. I may be wrong about her favorite, it might be the one between her shoulder blades; It says "Free as a bird" in a different language. Her newest tattoo, which is probably the craziest of them all is one on her lower lip; it says Fierce. She has fairly tan skin, usually not loosing it..not even in the winter. She has cuts across her wrist, whatever you're thinking you are probably right. She did cause them herself. She has both of her ears pierced, gauged actually but they aren't big gauges, the smallest size actually. She has her right ear pierced three times on the side. . And, yes her nose is pierced, on the right side, and she wears a little heart ring. On her left thigh are visible bite marks that look to be from a huge animal..a huge wolf to be exact. The bite doesn't look brand new but it doesn't look old either, when she shifts it is rather painful and the shift back to human is even worse and it leaves the bite mark with a burning feeling that last for a little bit.
Like herself, her wolf is very small. She has this white coat that seems to fade to a ashy gray color at the tip of the hairs; her fur is very soft to the touch. Her wolf is quick, silent, and almost a silent killer. Her blue eyes usually get a bit darker. Her wolf is almost the size of a normal wolf, only coming in at eighty-five pounds. She can easily be over powered, so she often hides..uses the element of surprise then runs.
Personality:
If you looked up shy in the dictionary you would find Tessa's name. Actually shy is an understatement, ever since she was a small child she would have trouble speaking to people or getting up in front of large groups of people. It's not your typical shyness though, most people who are shy have this awkward vibe about them..not Tessa. She gives off a different vibe, one that makes you feel comfortable around her..makes you want to talk to her which she absolutely hates. It's not that she doesn't like talking to people, she just likes to be the one to talk first once she's comfortable not someone walking up and prying. She seems content by herself. She has been known to come out of her comfort zone on a few rare occasions.
Only a few people have met the real Tessa, sure a lot of people say this..but it's true. You know how people try to hide behind their fake personalities, well she hates fake people. So, she doesn't hide behind her personality she just makes it hard to really "meet" her. Remember that vibe she has that makes you want to stay around her? Well if you're lucky and she starts to feel a little more comfortable around you she begins to open up a little more. At first she does come across as a shy, silent type and it only takes a few moments for her to warm up to you once she does she can make you feel like you've known her forever. The you meet the real her you'll find its the huge smile or her contagious laughter that draws you in. She's actually quiet the clown. Making people laugh is candy to her, she aims to cheer people up. She honestly can't stand seeing people in a shitty mood, she does everything in her power to try to cheer them up. She will joke around and be a complete goofball, acting as if laughter is a candy to her. Sometimes laughing at nothing at all. She laughs at herself most of the time, she thinks of herself as an undercover comedian. But, she is pretty rough around the edges. She isn't one for wasting an opinion and she will tell you real fast what she thinks. At times, it's all she can do to keep her mouth shut, it's either from telling someone to shut up, or simply pointing out the obvious in a snark comment. After she learned you can't trust everyone she makes quiet an effort to hide all her emotions. She acts fearless, even though she has many fears like most, but would she ever admit them? No. She isn't afraid to fight, looking at it like a game. She can literally knock you down so low that you think that a dung beetle is better than you. She is known for her comebacks and sarcastic remarks, its what makes her Echo. She doesn't believe that only guys can be perverts, she can pick up on perverted things even before they can sometimes. She has a rather brave type of composure for lacking the height. She is not afraid to put a beat down on someone. Daredevil a word used to describe the small blonde. She'll do a dare in a heartbeat and she won't blink an eye.
Remember when I told you, you can tell her mood by her eyes? Well. You can tell in her eyes when something is wrong, or how she seems to distance herself from people when something is wrong. She covers it up well though, she has a huge heart and puts others first. All in all she's a mixture of all traits, depends on how you want to see her and how she feels about you.
But most people don't meet that Dustin. She's embarrassed about herself. You can tell, how she carries herself..seeming almost embarrassed to even be in public. She sick and tired of being told, "It's just a phase, you'll be okay, you're fine." Cause its a lie. It'll never be okay.
Species: "Uhm, yeah..that's a bit of a touchy subject." Tessa is a half-breed werewolf. To be a half-breed a human is bitten by a pureblooded werewolf. In this event, most of the humans bitten either die of the bite or are killed by the one who bit them. The ones who survive have it rather rough. They don't smell like a wolf, unlike vampires when a person is bitten they never take on the full werewolf abilities and when they do shift back to human form they are exhausted. Theses.."werewolves" are labeled as Half-breeds, Halflings, or as the more..crude of the werewolves call them..Mutts..Mixed Breeds. "Mutts" usually aren't accepted into packs and left to be loners, but the few that are accepted are usually the lowest rank in the pack. Unlike most "Mutts" though she did get an extra power. Illusions. (Explained in the 'Other' part of this.)

History:
"Go. Screw. Yourself." >-><-<
Life was actually going pretty well for a younger Adrienna, her mom enrolled her in Ballet at the age of three. At five, the dance teachers were amazed at the pure talent the small girl had. She performed her first solo at the age of five, winning first place. Her mom took pictures before Adrienna took the stage, the two pictures were put on the mantle for all to see. Her father's favorite and her mother's favorite. Adrienna's life revolved around dance, that is until she turned twelve and started middle school. She found the sport of soccer, but her mother was firm about her only being involved with dance. You see Adrienna's mom was obsessed with ballet, wished she had started at a young age..but her mother didn't push her into it; so Nicole, Adrienna's mother, was going to make her dream come through by using her daughter.
At fifteen Adrienna was becoming fed up with ballet, ten years were more than enough for her. Nicole was not about to let her daughter quit though. That's when the fighting began. Adrienna had started talking to her dad about trying out for the soccer team which earned her a rough slap to the face from her mother.
"This is my life, not yours!" Adrienna had yelled, finally fed up with all the shit she had to put up with Nicole. "Don't you dare talk to me like that!" Her mom screamed back. "Well it's true and you know it! You dream of being a ballet dancer, mom! Not me! NOT me!" This fight ended with another slap to the face. Going to school with a bruised cheek, having to lie about it.
Adrienna's life went from being normal to complete hell. She was forced to take ballet lessons, which made her angry. An angry teenager leads to bad decisions. She began drinking and doing drugs, which led to her getting kicked out of dance. Causing her mother to be beyond furious with her. She went to punch Adrienna but Adrienna's father stopped her.
"Nicole..I really think that's enough. I have sat around watching you push Tess around and I am tired of it." Ulric, Adrienna's father, had said. Adrienna had always looked up to her father, she was known for being a 'Daddy's girl'. "Of course you're gonna take up for the little brat!" Nicole yelled, going for Adrienna again but Ulric put himself between the two. (One little side note here, Ulric was known to have seizures but he hadn't had one in awhile.) Nicole then had turned her anger onto her husband, she began to flail on him but it didn't seem to bother him that much. That is until she grabbed a pan that was on the kitchen counter, Adrienna started screaming for her to stop but she hit Ulric on the side of the head with the pan. Ulric fell to the floor compulsing. Adrienna called the cops.
It had been six months since the accident, Adrienna was in a court room, more than ready to testify against her mother. Which she did which caused Nicole to be sentenced to thirty years in prison for attempted murder. They were going to put Adrienna into a foster home, but she said she could take care of herself. Wondering what happened to Ulric aren't you? He had a seizure after he was hit by the pan, causing him to go into coma. They said he would wake up, but he hadn't not even after six months. One day they said he might not make it though the night. Adrienna took it hard, really hard. She had yet to completely stop with the drugs. That night she went home, to the lonely house which use to hold a loving family. Now only had stale bread and a lonely sixteen year old.
Luckily Ulric made it through the night, they didn't know how long they had though. Whose decision was it to pull the plug? Adrienna thought it was her's, she would hate herself but if they asked her she would agree to pulling the plug; she hated seeing her Daddy, the man who helped her grow up and stand up to Nicole, stuck in a bed with tubes running in and out of him and needles and she just couldn't stand to see him like that. She was wrong though. Nicole was the decider of if they should pull the plug or not. Adrienna hoped her mother would think pulling the plug would hurt her, hoping she would choose that to make her own daughter suffer. But Nicole was smarter than Adrienna though. Nicole decided to not pull the plug, to make her daughter suffer and watch as her Daddy died slowly right in front of her.
Upon finding out what had been decided, Adrienna was furious. She went and visited her mother in jail, sitting at a table as her mother had this smug look on her face. The second the guards turned, Dustin was on the attack. She threw the first punch, causing her mother to fall to the floor. The guards were on them by the time Adrienna had went to punch again. She isn't allowed to see her mother anymore. She could careless.
This was a lot to hand for a sixteen year old. Never seeing your mother again, your father dying slowly, and having to raise yourself. So much to grow up in such a short time period. She got a call in the middle of the night. A doctor. Her heart sunk as she was told her father was shocked back to life not three times, but four. It threw her off the deep end. She over dosed on one of her drugs, somehow she ended up at the hospital. Waking up in the hospital with this feeling that someone had stabbed you in the stomach and this throbbing pain in your head is not fun. At all. Then how people look at you when they know you tried to commit suicide was the worse, the looks of smug sorrow. Over dosing didn't work, so Dustin began to cut herself. Her life was spinning out of control and fast.
It seemed as if her life would never get better, that is until one morning the phone rang. She answered with a groggy voice as she gently rubbed her temples where her head was literally pounding from a hangover. There was good news for a change. Her dad had woke up, but he wasn't in a good condition. He would be staying in the hospital for quiet a long time to recover and get back to normal. So maybe her life was changing for the better. She tried to stop the cutting and the drugs..but it wasn't that easy. They were addictive..and she was addicted.
It had been two years since that phone call, her dad came home about a year ago and found the drugs, the beer, and the razors. He tried to help her through the pain and it was beginning to work a little. She was out one night going to get some medicine for her dad for his migraines. She was almost home..almost..
There was this rustling in the woods that made her walk faster but it just got faster, she was honestly at a sprinting pace when this huge thing jumped out infront of her. She looked at it, pure terror in her blue eyes as she found herself staring at a huge wolf. It growled and slowly stepped toward her, making her stumble back a bit and fall onto the ground. The only thing she remembered after that was a sering pain in her left thigh. She woke up at home..her leg wrapped, by who she had no idea. She limped downstairs and found her dad asleep on the couch. She found a letter, explaining what happened..what she was going to be now. To be honest..she cried. Scared she may hurt her father. Scared she would be killed. She spoke to her father about moving. He agreed it was time and they should keep in touch.
A year later, Adrienna found herself a nice apartment in the city of Rose. Keeping herself under the radar of the Coven and Pack which called the place home. She was a loner, and she planned to keep it that way. She actually had bumped into a few of the members here and there, luckily avoiding any suspicion. That is until she heard of The Cacciatori and she knew she wouldn't live if she stayed alone..so she went to the pack, hoping they would accept her for who she was..
Theme Song(s):
"I like music.."
She doesn't look, she doesn't see
Opens up for nobody
Figures out, she figures out
Narrow line, she can't decide
Everything short of suicide
Never hurts, nearly works
Something is scratching
Its way out
Something you want
To forget about
A part of you that'll never show
You're the only one that'll ever know
Take it back when it all began
Take your time, would you understand
What it's all about?
What it's all about?
Something is scratching
Its way out
Something you want
To forget about
No one expects
You to get up
All on your own with
No one around

Other:
Her power of illusions is very simple to understand,
She can control what you see with her mind..she can make it look as if you are walking in the desert when you may just be walking to the kitchen. She can make small things appear like a small animal or big things appear like a dinosaur or skyscraper. She usually uses it to distract people and run away. The downfall of her power is it makes her a bit weak..and she seems to need a nap after using it.
A few of her quirks are, Adrienna will fiddle with your hand when she gets nervous, if she knows you well, or she'll fiddle with her hair. She bites her lip a lot, just out of habit. Sometimes when she talks to people she stands on her tip-toes so she's a little taller. Giggling, she is a giggler. She mumbles in her sleep. She pops her toes a lot.
