Editing Tessa (section)

== Personality ==
An accomplished prodigy in fighting, Shriekblade is a deeply troubled Drake. Shriekblade suffers from depression that has grown worse over time, to the point of self-inflicting cuts on her self. Killing monsters doesn’t seem to improve her temperament. Only a high-level [Healer] can make her feel better, though temporarily. Failing that, she takes Calming Tonics, but they have little effect on her. She still takes them if noting else, even overdosing herself to the point of becoming completely without emotion.<ref name=":7.33 I" /> When she's in that state, the only thing that elicits a flicker of emotion from her is the prospect of visiting the [[Hekusha|Healer of Tenbault]]. She also has an addiction to a number of illicit drugs such as Selphid's Dust.<ref name=":1">[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/04/12/9-41-pt-2/ Chapter 9.41 (Pt. 2)]</ref><ref>{{VERef|10.01 L}}</ref>

To her killing people or monsters was all the same, as killing just was, for her, like taking a bath. Also when she ask if there is anyone to kill, she asks it like she wanted to know if they wanted their garden weeded. She also ignores any blood and wound, like singe marks on her.

She has a tendency of screaming in battle.<ref name=":7.33 I" />

She's infamous for being uncontrollable and mercenary. She's been known to switch employers for better pay. 

She likes having the chance to beat up her employer without repercussion.<ref name=":0" />

Tessa doesn't like it when someone can detect her.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2022/06/03/9-00/ Chapter 9.00]</ref>
