Tess (Part I)

Intro Tess was a leader; she led Joel effortlessly and made friends with many of the people that she met. She had a wide range of contacts and was universally respected, and often feared, among the residents of the Boston Zone. Tess, like most survivors, was ruthless, and did not flinch at the thought of killing people, but conversely was kind to Ellie, more so than Joel originally, and did her best to reassure and protect her. Also, she sometimes calls Joel "Texas." She also swears a lot.
