Madame Serpent : Medium to Antiquity

 

Born Anne Common, Madame Serpent changed her name several years ago to one more suitable for a professional medium and spiritualist. Convinced of her own ability she none the less often enguages in fraud, conning the desperate and gullible out of hard earned cash. She justifies this behaviour to herself (and on occasion others) by claiming that communication with those in the otherworld requires faith and belief in the existance of a spiritual plain. People in this day often just need a hand to have their mind opened, and their channels of communication readied for messages from their (usually recently deceased) loved ones. Mdme Serpent has discovered that dimly lit rooms, a few floating sheets and shaking tables accomponied by an etherial voice from behind a curtain is often all that's required for a 'client' to start seeing and hearing the rest themselves.

 

M. Serpent is 41 years old and has managed to elevate herself from the lower class to a position of some respectability in polite Oxford society. While there are plenty of sceptics, a few higer profile clients (some from the aristocracy) afforded her a degree of protection.

 

She is also fascinated with Egyptology, but lacks the ability to seperate historical fact from her romantic interprutation of antiquity. Her poor tastes in 'Egyptian art' have made her ironically, a victim of her own ignorance and a target of salemen of questionable morals.

 

She lives alone in an Oxford flat, where her front parlor has been decorated is a 'gateway to the otherworld'. Her collection of cheap middle eastern art is on display in her lobby.
