Occupation: Hunter

Episode: 9.11 First Born

DESCRIPTION

Tara was a hunter who chased after the First Blade.

HISTORY

At one point, Tara worked with John Winchester on a hunt where they captured and tortured a demon who used to work for the Knight of Hell Abaddon before her believed death. The demon told them about the First Blade before they exorcised it, but while John thought the demon was lying, trying to get out of being exorcised, Tara believed him. She and John then had a "lovely weekend" together before John apparently never called Tara again despite promising. Believing that the First Blade would be an important weapon for a hunter to have given its properties, Tara spent many years chasing after it afterwards. She ruined her life and her knee which began to twinge when a demon was nearby, but she eventually managed to find a locator spell for the Blade. However, while she was able to gather most of the ingredients, she was never able to find essence of Kraken and thus could never use the spell. She kept the ingredients locked in a safe of her shop, presumably in case she ever found the last one.
