Teeka (tee-kah) was a talented artificer from Jamuraan origin, who lived in North Aerona on Dominaria. She created her Shop of Wonders in the K'Cur mountains of Cape Tempest.[1] Teeka had several apprentices, one of which had graduated from the Institute of Arcane Study.

Description

Teeka's skin was of the darkest ebony, which contrasted wonderfully with the wild hair like molten gold that tumbled in undisciplined profusion over her back and shoulders. Her turquoise eyes were bright and ironic, her voice shrill and acerbic. She was also apparently ageless.[1]

History

At some point at her Shop of Wonders, Teeka noticed that some of her creations had been vanishing and then mysteriously reappeared sometime later with minor battle wounds. It turns out that they have been summoned by warring wizards. In reaction, she built her masterpiece: a guardian dragon to protect her other works and to find out who was taking them. The dragon eventually follows another artifact creature and returns with many battle scars and a note that reads “How much to lease this dragon?”
