Mark Rand Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 The Queen of Swords, Maria Teresa "Tessa" Alvarado, was an active vigilante in Spanish California in the early part of the 19th century. She's still alive and may still be active. The reason, she's a Highlander-style Immortal. Her principal teacher was Vera Adelina Velasquez Hidalgo, who was born Gabrielle in Potidaea (a city in ancient Greece) in 338 B.C.E. As she was, and still is, the Amazon queen, she made Tessa an Amazon in 1825. Don Gaspar Hidalgo, Vera's husband and Watcher, served as Watcher to both until Marta could be properly trained and Doctor Robert Helm was Methos's identity back then. Neither woman is a headhunter, but they will defend themselves if challenged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Rand Posted March 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Re: The Queen of Swords Like all Immortals, Tessa and Gabrielle carry swords. Recently, each was gifted, by higher powers, with a new sword. Tessa carries The Sword of Saint Catherine, which was once carried by Saint Joan of Arc. Gabrielle carries Purity, one of The Nine Swords of Destiny. For more information on them and other stuff, go to http://www.wandererverse.com, then click on wandererverse and explore. Some ideas from the Wandererverse will be used in the campaign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
