"The boundaries which divide Life from Death are at best shadowy and vague. Who shall say where the one ends, and where the other begins?" - Edgar Allan Poe
Personal Information
Appearance
Hypatia is a truly beautiful young woman, with short brown/blonde ombre hair and magnetic grey-brown eyes that seem to capture attention without any effort. Willowy thin and slightly tanned, she has a gentle but powerful aura about her and always seems able to make people feel fascinated by her very presence.
Nimbus
A sensation of tingles up the spine- the traditional "someone's walking on my grave" feeling- as the shadows around her lengthen and whispers from unseen figures echo around the room. Most unsettling is her features - Hypatia's eyes become milky and her skin becomes taunt, as if she is becoming a corpse before your eyes.
Personality
Cool but charming, Hypatia is an animated conversationalist and clearly both intelligent and witty- and remarkably well read. It seems that most topics are something she has at least a touching knowledge on, and those she doesn't have an opinion on she gladly listens about and takes on.
It seems Hypatia is the kind of person who easily makes friends and even followers. There is something about her that is mysterious and alluring, and draws out a (sometimes unhealthy) interest in her.

Recent Events
Early in 2019, Hypatia went through a particularly traumatic Awakening. She doesn't like to talk about it, beyond the fact that her cabal mates were there to bring her back to reality and help her re-ground after the experience. Axis and Gabriel took her to Gardener, an experienced Thyrsus of the Silver Ladder, to help her process the experience and find her feet in this new life.
