Appearance:
Gaunt and sociable, with flyaway brown hair with streaks of gray in it. She has dark brown eyes and a missing tooth, and wears a different scarf every day. She wears one of two sun-bleached sundresses, one striped, one plaid. Her thick French accent sometimes makes it hard to understand her. She is in her late 40s, early 50s, but her hair color makes it hard to tell.
 

Bio:
Thérèse Charbonnier grew up in a small town in France. Her mother died in childbirth, and her father brought her up the best that he could. By the time she was five, she used to her father staying away from home for the entire day and most of the night, coming back drunker than the night before. When he started to abuse her at age 10, she knew she had to escape somehow. She used the money she had earned doing odd jobs for neighbors to buy a one way ticket to America. She landed in New York and just kept running, finally stopping in a small town that isn't even on the map. She settled down and has been living there ever since, watching the town change as people come and go.
