Serpentine

Description
Serpentine dresses in rubber and wedding dresses and teases her hair into a piled up, back-combed tower that resembles nothing so much as an over-loaded icecream cone. She has very few male servants and her stables contain no horses, indeed the bits and bridles seem more suited to fit someone of a more human frame.

Prose
The most feared of the Seven Sisters Serpentine has the legendary ability to transform things. People, objects, fortunes all are mutable to her will. She is also a master of the arts of cursing and potions. Serpentine is the most feared because she is the most active and uses her power to punish anyone who does so much as get in her way or slightly inconvenience her. The Underside is littered with toads, bats and other unsavoury creatures all sporting a mournful or surprised expression, all once people who crossed Serpentine’s path. Serpentine is also known to take children from Underside families, binding them into her service as servants for their lifespan, keeping them under her control with potions and subtle magics. Serpentine is a stolid and stocky woman of the hockey playing and horse-riding tradition of English ladies. She is very strong in body and solid in stature, immortal and immutable. Curt and short she is honourable in her own twisted way, imperious in manner and cruel in action. Always hungry she has a taste for delicacies not generally enjoyed in Britain any more; calves foot jelly, jellied eels and other fare that would give modern stomachs a queasy turn. Her eternal feasting is much of the reason for the existence of her servants and for her stocky build. Serpentine once knew Hunter and had her bound into her service. Serpentine also looks after many artefacts, amongst them the spear Hunter used to attack the Beast. Extremely intelligent Serpentine sees through plots and deceptions like most people see through glass. - pg 113 Neverwhere 3
