Seraphine is just above the average height for a woman, though her willowy build contributes to the illusion of height that is only further supported by her preference for wearing heels. Slim and fit, Seraphine has the kind of body that men would, and do, pay money for. She turns heads as she walks down the street, and she knows it, and enjoys the power that comes with it. Her figure is a perfect hourglass shape, and her flawless skin is pale, setting off the red hair that waterfalls down her back.

Her fine features are elegant, beautiful even, with just that hint of sultry sexuality that makes her such a valuable commodity for the White Spider Society. High cheek bones highlight eyes with a strangely piercing gaze, though they only occasionally betray an intelligence one would not normally associate with a call-girl. This is only highlighted by the carefully and tastefully applied makeup. She may be a call-girl, but she’s an extremely expensive and exclusive one, and that means that she is far from out of place on the arm of a wealthy businessman. No heavy rouging and liberal foundation here.

Seraphine wears what she is expected to. Frequently this includes short dresses, ones that cling to curves and leave very little to the imagination. Her body is a valuable commodity, and is dressed up in such a way to show it in its best light. A flair for the dramatic ensures that she frequently wears expensive designer clothes and expensive jewellery, some has been purchased on her own dime, but a great deal have come in gifts from her clients. Call them tips if you will.

For someone who is so adept at manipulating others, Seraphine is not very good at making friends. She doesn’t like trusting other people with her feelings, because it is so easy for them to take advantage of them. Emotions and lust and desire are all just weaknesses to be exploited, or at least that is what she tells herself. Seraphine plays at being the ruthless Machiavelli, but really is just a young girl who desperately wants to be something that she is not.

Somewhere beneath the façade is a young girl who is very out of her depth, but is determined to make the best of it now. She is frightened and lonely, but more afraid of letting others know that is how she feels than she is of the feelings themselves. Caring, she’ll take in strays when they wander by, for a while at least, until she remembers the person she is supposed to be. To sum it up, Seraphine is a good person who is trying really hard to be a bitch, and one day, she just might succeed.

Seraphine is a polyglot, and speaks half a dozen languages beyond English, French, ASL, Russian, Mandarin, Spanish and Arabic.

Seraphine is headed right to the top, behind everything, behind the twisting of men to her whims, behind the sacrifice of her body for the purpose of business, behind the things she does for the Society lies a desperate ambition. Seraphine wants to control her own life, and in this world that means you need to control everyone else’s, or that’s how she sees it.

Seraphine was not raised as a high society lady, or even as Seraphine. Sophie Jones was about as common as they come, her father was wealthy, but as a man who had worked his way up from the bottom, he wasn’t exactly welcome among the old guard of the wealthy. You could think that such prejudices were long since forgotten, but in the upper echelons of society there are still those who hold onto old and outdated sensibilities.

Her father was proud of his heritage, and refused to blend in with the circles he now moved among, still wearing old battered jeans and helping the hands on the ancestral family ranch. Sophie hated it, hated being looked down on and bullied by her fellow students at her private school, at home she had to carry out chores on the ranch, which would have been fine if it didn’t include mucking out the horses and throwing hay, giving her a more chunky and masculine physique than most teenage girls are comfortable with, particularly amongst peers who are spoiled rotten by their families from birth, not raised in a working household. She always wanted to escape that life, to be something more.

When her powers manifested things only became more complicated, they changed for the worse. Though it came with advantages, people were frightened of metahumans, and Sophie became even more ostracised than she already was, even her father, who had always been an honest, hard-working man, was ashamed of his daughter’s freakish nature. His daughter, his hard-working, honest daughter, was registered with nest, chipped, tagged, and suddenly an embarrassment.

Sophie ran away at fifteen, she stole a little money from her father and left town, left the county, the state. She changed her name, acquired a whole new identity, and set about transforming her life. Anyone else might have struggled, even most metahumans would have struggled in that position, but Seraphine’s ability gave her the unique ability to be in two places, or more, at once.

A year spent working long hours every day helped her lose the puppy fat, and a lack of proper nutrition ensured that her once chunky physique slimmed down a little more rapidly than was really healthy. It didn’t take long though, before she realised the power her new appearance gave her. She was lucky enough to have matured rapidly, and at sixteen, she looked old enough to be within the consenting age, but was ruthless enough to take advantage of the fact that she wasn’t, and extorted money from the men foolish enough to fall for her feminine wiles. Of course, it eventually meant she had to move on, and before long she found herself attracting the attentions of the White Spider Society. Attractive, and clearly already in the habit of using her sex and beauty to take advantage of men, she was picked up by a low level brothel swiftly, and put to work in the Society’s thriving sex industry.

Her abilities made her much more valuable than they were capable of dealing with however, and she was soon ‘taken off their hands’ by one of the more influential members of the Society.

Other

Seraphine has the potent gift of self-duplication, the ability to generate complete clones of herself. These clones share a limited empathic link, but are otherwise capable of acting and thinking independently, though the fact that they are the same person allows them to act with an uncanny unity of purpose at times. These clones are identical in virtually every way, impossible to tell apart for any but an extremely potent telepath.

This power is the secret to Seraphine’s many talents and vast experiences. Each clone, though tethered to the Prime, is capable of living an independent life, of learning and acquiring skills. Though there is no telepathic link between the Prime and the clone, upon reabsorption Seraphine Prime can absorb all of their memories, knowledge and skills. The clones otherwise can function independently.

Though Seraphine can produce a number of clones, she is limited to a maximum of twelve, and she maintains three in areas around the country, including two in University, limiting her to being able to produce nine clones in her immediate vicinity.

Reabsorbing a clone can have some adverse effects for some time after the fact. These can include personality defects, wild mood swings and occasional periods of exhaustion. These effects are magnified the longer the clone has been independent, a few weeks has little to no effect, while a few months or even years can have a much more difficult effect.

Though the clones can operate independently while Seraphine sleeps, forced unconsciousness for the Prime, through drugs or trauma, will force unconsciousness across the entire network, and trauma applied to them can be felt by the Prime, though she cannot use it to locate her clone, merely to experience (unwillingly) the pain the duplicate is experiencing. This empathy even extends to death, the clones can die, and they will experience death in exactly the same way as any other, and the reverberation of that experience can cause incredible psychological pain for Seraphine Prime. She will in effect experience death herself, without having to die.

The final limitation is simple, Seraphine is the Prime, the centre of the network, if she dies, so does every other Seraphine, like puppets with their strings cut.
