Infobox • Talk page

Chief Tess is the leader of the spa town of Oo'glog. Talking to her can start the As a First Resort quest.

According to most, she is the best hunter in Oo'glog. During As a First Resort, she will teach you how to hunt the creatures in the village. She also knows why the ogres are very protective of the platypodes but she will refuse to tell the player since they interrupt once too often.

She has a pet larupia called Dawg.

Archaeology collections

Chief Tess is a collector who collects "shinies" and other trinkets, giving chronotes and robust glass in return for them. All artefacts donated to collectors must be unnoted.
