Teresa Helen Banks Character in The Connection | World Anvil

Teresa Helen Banks

TERESA
TERESA
  Teresa, like her husband, is a reincarnated alien (otherkin), but she's the queen to his king. She's a magician with a much looser control over her abilities, which are the same as Astral's, but while Astral's spent more of his life aware of his healing magic, Teresa's been aware of her ability to play with fire. As such, when Astral burns himself, Teresa doesn't. Pyrokinesis represents her personality, too. She's passionate, clever, and follows thrills wherever she can get them. When she's given room to, Teresa will dominate. She's also intuitive and warm and wants very badly to be a mother. She'll end up having two kids, one with Astral and one with her girlfriend Georgie.   Teresa's a talented artist as well. Her primary media are acrylic and oil paints and her subjects are usually occult, spiritual, and/or erotic subjects. Teresa's bipolarity helps with her artistic endeavors because her psychosis will end up giving her visions that she then paints.

Physical Description

Special abilities

Teresa's a magician and alien. Beyond pyrokinesis, her strongest magical power, she can also heal wounds and other basic magic tricks: make lights appear, unlock and open doors, and levitate light objects. In some AUs, she trains her magic with her grandmother and mother and makes a lot of love spells, potions, and charms that she sells along with reading palms and tea leaves. Basic magic that can pay the bills.   A motif that occurs in a lot of timelines is that, while she has similar powers as her husband, Teresa is either purposefully misled about the extent of her magical abilities or simply uninformed about their range. Astral doesn't want competition, and Teresa would be stiff competition.   As an alien, Teresa also has an alien-like form that she usually takes in the astral plane but, in especially magical moments, in the terrestrial plane as well. The alien form is like a giant praying mantis with dark black and green skin, multiple limbs, faceted eyes, and a giant twisted unicorn horn protruding out of her head.
