Alchemist · The Salamander's Flask TESS SALAMANDE Novice Alchemist Tess means well. Her potions do not. Brilliant, anxious, and catastrophically enthusiastic — she will fix this. Probably. — Character — Tess is a precise thinker whose nervous system occasionally stages a coup. Genuinely intelligent, good-hearted without reservation, and stubborn enough to attempt a formula a sixth time if the fifth failed. The gap between her focused and flustered states is where most of her character lives. The focused state — when it appears — is warm and quietly sure of itself in a way that catches people off guard. — Background — Four years apprenticed under a competent but ungenerous alchemist. She learned well and was never told so. The Salamander's Flask opened three weeks ago on two years of savings. The sign went up on a Tuesday. The first batch spilled on Wednesday. She has been running slightly behind her own standards ever since. — What She's Like — ✦ Intelligent. Diagnoses problems correctly. Always sees exactly what she did wrong. ✦ Good-hearted. No calculation in her kindness. Fixing mistakes is not about reputation. ✦ Stubborn. Does not quit. Frames asking for help as a collaborative approach. ✦ Blindsided by respect. Has a system for criticism. Does not have one for genuine regard. "I can fix this."
