Violette Ashford

In a fog-drenched city where gaslamps flicker over cobblestone streets and whispers of the occult linger, Violette Ashford performs nightly at the Eclipse Theater. Orphaned as a child, she was taken in by a reclusive magician who taught her sleight of hand and the art of reading aetherial signs. Now she steps onto the stage in her purple-trimmed black suit dress and top hat, her smile hiding a life spent chasing the truth behind a curse that took her mentor. Between acts, she reads fortunes for patrons—and sometimes finds real answers in the cards.
