Handmaidens
Category: Uncategorized
The Handmaidens are NPCs used to convey information or further a story without the need for words or have to writer controlled interact with when need be. They are to be used in any way the writers wish other than their deaths. A year after their start as a handmaiden they were given an elixir that prolongs their life, provided they wish to take it. Should they stop they would return to aging naturally as though they had not taken the drink but not at an accelerated rate ( so if they started taking the elixir at 20 when they stop taking it, they would pick up at the age of 20 even if they were really 40 years old.) NPCs are mostly identified by a collar or hair color though they do have names and short backstories I plan to elaborate and build on as time goes forward.
The sisters: They reside in the bedroom next to Andrew's though they never sleep there. They were originally from an un-named town outside Ukraine and were brought to the mansion during events of the time mirror disaster. The exact year they originally lived in it thought to be sometime in the early 1300's They are his night time servants and the first of his pupils. Though the others tend to believe otherwise they never sleep with Andrew at the same time. Both of their collars are silver with light blue leather back bindings. Anna's has a red stone and Cordelia's has a blue stone. Anna 5'4 tall long blonde hair. Likes to paint and dance. Hates radishes and coffee. Cordelia 5'4 tall long blonde hair.

The chef. She resides in the downstairs bedroom next to the kitchen next to the stairs. Originally from France, She is the quietest and newest of Andrew's pupils and usually is called mouse behind her back by the other girls because of her small, slender frame. She has lived in the manner a little less than a year. Her collar is black leather with a plain silver buckle in back and no stone.

The house maidens. Both reside in the main hall bedroom at the end of the hallway. Rose was from a small town in Scotland while Violetta was born in New York City.

The Librarian: Originally a princess, Mei met Andrew hundreds of years before when he went seeking a relic lost in time. Realizing her intellect, value and worth Andrew shared the secret of an immortality potion with her in exchange for a favor in the far future. He met her again years later as a student of Andrew's from college, She was then hired to create a library of rare old tomes for Andrew's collection. Other than meals she is always in the library and always on a leash that advances and retracts with her movements. She is the curviest of Andrew's pupils. She wears a gold collar with black leather backing and a green stone. Mei: 5'4 long brown hair always in a bun.
