Theresa

Theresa is one of the seven residents of the island, resistant to flowers and weak to planets.

Story
Before she came to the island, Theresa was a boxing champion, but one day she hit someone too hard and they didn't get back up, causing her to retire. Afterwards she worked as a waiteress, but she didn't enjoy it so she quit and came to the island instead.

At the end of IL10, Theresa is meditating on the northwest shore, and after she is approached by Braxton she can be seen recieving a shield. In IL12, Theresa gives this shield to Paisley so she can defeat Emissary and find her golden iceskate.

Theresa can be seen leaving the island with the rest of the group, however they are forced to turn back due to the storm, and must wait it out in the Tooth Home. She mentions that now they know where it came from, Tooth Home needs to starve. After Eleanor leaves, Theresa suggests they should split up and search for her, asking Paisley if she still has her power and telling her she doesn't know how long it will last for, but it won't last forever. Afterwards, the group reunite and form Yotis to fight the final boss.

After Edgar is freed, Theresa tells Russell she thought they were leaving the island, but Russell replies that they're there forever. She remembers the battle, and asks Chester if they won, but he isn't sure. Braxton isn't sure either, though he tells her he overheard Eleanor and Paisley saying they freed someone. Inside Tooth Home, Theresa demands Eleanor tell her whether they defeated Sop and who they freed, but Eleanor says she can't tell her, causing Theresa to compare her to Georgia. Appearing outside when Theresa leaves, Eleanor tells Theresa she doesn't want to know the truth. Finally, Theresa asks Paisley what Eleanor did, promising not to tell anyone else, and Paisley gives her the truth, causing her to leave.

Theresa leaves behind a letter for Eleanor, telling Eleanor she knows that Georgia replaced the life inside the Tooth Home, and that if everyone finds out the truth Paisley's shield will break and Yotis will wither away. The letter also claims Eleanor will not see Theresa again, and that she's going for a swim. In the water, Theresa finds Gus, who she tells she's looking for Susanna. Gus offers to pass on her message that she needs a ride to the mainland onto Susanna, though they're feeling under the weather and can't help further. Gus tells her that Edgar was the first, but in a way also the ninth, but Theresa doesn't understand. Theresa then approaches a wreckage.

In IL24, Braxton finds her letter to Eleanor, causing him to gain the truth and leave as well. Theresa walks towards The Singer, who appears and performs The Coral of Today, before dissapearing. Theresa arrives at the fish mouth after Braxton, and passes on the news to Theresa that she saw Gus floating unmoving on the way over.

We see Theresa reaching the mainland in Illusion Lock Village, along with the other island residents. She is also played in Sports Mode by Burke in ILV03. When Paisley goes to leave to look for Older Paisley in ILV11, Theresa forces Paisley to let her come along and help protect her, though she agrees to let Paisley have a one-on-one with her when they find Older Paisley. She also tells her to mark each tree the pass with an "X", using her skate. As they are away, they are unable to attend the wedding in ILV14.
