Armillary Cimeries Petrova
Doctor Armillary Cimeries Petrova- Ballion, Esq. (a.k.a. Iskra's Mommy)
…That’s not a very helpful answer. What good are you supposed divine shrine maidens of the so-called “Paranormal Research and Development Sept” if you don’t even know what planet we are currently occupying? I’m certain that my three triplet grand-daughters could point to a map of the world and say what world they’re currently on if I asked them to!
The Doctor
Mother of Iskra, and a complicated figure to put things mildly. She is currently the Estate's premiere engineer, scientist and technical advisor to Iskra herself. Caution is advised around her lest she find something to mock about you or your current status.
A giant even in the face of the deity's towering height, the woman is somehow impossibly light.
Despite this, she seems unable to walk, but no one has yet to ask her if she can even do so. Not even Iskra has seen the woman stroll on her own two legs before.
Warning:
She is NOT permitted to smoke in the estate outside of her laboratory and designated smoking areas. This directive is from Astarte herself, and failure to obey it will result in punishments for her.
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Doctor Petrova is apparently Paraplegic, requiring her wheelchair by her own admission, despite never listing a condition or contributing factor to support this claim. Barring this she is pale, deficient in many vitamins and minerals, and yet her mind is still as sharp as a razor blade.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
So-far the doctor has only disclosed her past insofar that Iskra was her original creation along with herself and her partner, a woman by the name of "Stella" who was lost to time. It was after Iskra failed to show promise as an experiment in making a weapon that she apparently made an impossible choice before utilizing the last of the control she had over the girl to wish herself out of the reality she had come to hate.
Years later she was found by Iskra during the campaign involving Luca and the Blue Dragonborn, and after an extensive conversation came to live with her daughter and her newfound extended family.
Sexuality
Asexual to the maximum.
Education
Multiple PhDs, artisanal certificates, and a culinary arts degree. NOT forklift certified.
Employment
Self-Employed as of her teenage years. She does not wish to discuss.

Mental Trauma
LOTS
Intellectual Characteristics
She is the single smartest individual who is not yet (Apparently) a deity
Morality & Philosophy
Being a woman of science as well as a reality absolutist, she is...complicated, despite complaining to the opposite.
Taboos
Armillary has a noted distaste for the arcane, the woman believing the principle that the phenomena about her is simply the manipulation of universal forces to create improbably results. She additionally does not have an ideal moral compass, a fact which is not helped by her past... but assisted greatly by her newfound family.
Personality Characteristics
Hygiene
...She showered today!
Fun Fact:
The bag you see on her right is in fact an IV of a concentrated blend of narcotics, euphorics and caffeine that could render even Kino immobile. She still insists on calling it "Piss" however.
