Age 9 Physical Appearance: A slight, pale child with ink-black hair always tangled like she just rolled out of bed, and unnervingly sharp green eyes that seem to glow under lantern light. She favors moth-eaten velvet dresses and mismatched stockings. Personality: Speaks with the eerie precision of a middle-aged aristocrat, asks invasive questions with a smile, and has a habit of touching people’s wrists to "read their pulse"—a trick she uses to gauge reactions. Adults either adore or fear her; there is no in-between.
