About: This is part of a collection of gaming notes left behind by my mother when she passed in 2020. Mom was an avid table-top role player, starting her adventures in the late 1970s and continued for as long as she could find a game. I’m slowly making my way through these papers and posting them as I uncover them.

My thoughts
Tallie seems a lot like Millie. Hm! But the backstory is a bit more straightforward. Maybe Mom just wanted to get into the game.
I’m tempted to psychoanalyze the personality traits she lists out for her characters. I don’t know how much she was into acting or true role playing, but this is her second character who was solidly independent and not so much with the “let’s be friends” attitude.
