Svengali
(a.k.a. The puppeteer)
'Let me show you the ropes'
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Like most heart-riggers, Svengali looks like an abomination of a spider with a bigger head, lacking definite features because of their nature to have darkened bodies. He has one leg dislocated that was not fully healed, reminder of his blunder at the lillybloom court.
Facial Features
Outside of heart-riggers main features, Svengali's tongue is blue-ish. this is a natural tone change as he regularly consumes blueberries which he orders from Juliette as he controls her.
Special abilities
Svengali has the ability , like other heart-rippers, to make small piercing in someone's skin , which he can connect threads invisible to the naked eye. The threads can make their way to nerves and control someone's movement. if a connector is near the heart, the thread can connect to it and syphon life energy of it.
Apparel & Accessories
When he does not control Juliette's body, he take residence inside her old childhood doll.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Since almost half a decade, Svengali has since been controlling Juliette as a parasite. With her employment, he is able to mark young preys, which he can later on manipulate , usually at night when people sleep, to go outside, where he will attune his threads to them, using them as eyes, indirect helpers, and also as a life source for him to gain power. Because he usually just marks them at the theater and 'kidnap' the children momentarily, Juliette is unassumed to be responsible as she remains at the theater most of the time. Despite him affecting her energy, life force, and overall emotional response, the citizens are putting the blame on the girl's past where she was victim of abuse. One of the rare person to have noticed a difference in Juliette's behaviour is the town's baker, as he noticed her ordering now blueberry pastries despite always having prefered raspberries when she was younger. But thankfully for svengali, the baker does not like gossiping or talking about his clients.
Employment
Svengali does not work but manipulates his main host, Juliette Debon, and impersonates her as a theatric teacher. This is obviously a front and a mean to find 'worthy' young ones to manipulate and gain their energy.
Failures & Embarrassments
Svengali used to be an jester for the court of the lilybloom. But his performance was deemed soulless and lacking expression, and was bannished from the court. He long desires to show back his skills and get closer to the Marquise of Spade, but decided to do so by collecting soul energy in the land of the living. He is jealous of Juliette and her pupil's potential, and plan to use them for his own needs.
Personality Characteristics
