NAME: Madame Anna Maria Escuskiovna
AGE: Mid-to-late 60's
SEX: Female
HEIGHT: 5' 5"
WEIGHT: Wispy
HAIR: Iron grey, usually done up in a braided crown
EYES: Pale blue

APPEARANCE: A thin, faded maiden lady; tends to dress in pale
blues, greys, lavenders, or combinations of these. Always
wearing something trailing and diaphanous, whether it's an
evening gown with a train, a filmy scarf, or whatever, and lots
of ring bracelets that jangle whenever she moves her hands.

She has been acquiring Egyptian-style jewelry during her time so
far in Egypt -- most of it is probably fake, but she'll usually
be wearing at least one piece. Unsurprisingly she is fond of
scarabs.

BACKGROUND/HISTORY/ETC: Madame Escuskiovna is a spiritualistic
medium, dedicated to the promulgation of Higher Wisdom through
Contact with the Spirit World. A month or two ago she became
convinced that the spirits were calling her to Egypt (the fact
that she acquired a cat around this same time may have something
to do with it). She therefore scraped up enough of her savings
to take this Nile cruise. The aforementioned cat is accompanying
her on the journey and has been named, inevitably, Bastet.
