Catherine Standish

Also known as Кэтрин, Кэтрин Стэндиш, Kathryn

Major
First seen · Book 2 · Ch. 1

A woman over fifty with pale skin from years spent indoors, light blonde hair that catches the light, and a long sharp nose. She dresses in old-fashioned, modest clothing that covers her from wrists to ankles and favors unusual hats, giving her the air of an aged and somewhat disappointed Alice in Wonderland. Her overall presence carries a quiet, slightly gray and witch-like quality that can seem oddly compelling under certain lights.
