[Mixamo Contest] - Semiotik - Jennifer Kelley Alchemist (WIP)

Jennifer Kelley - Modern Day Alchemist - 2013

She is a Descendent of Edward Kelley the alchemist and companion of John Dee ( 1527-1608 ) who was a mathematician and astrologer for the court of Queen Elizabeth I. Dee owned a large collection of Roger Bacon's Manuscripts. Roger Bacon was the Franciscan Friar and Polymath thought to have written the Voynich Manuscript. Edward was privy to Dee's knowledge and made a copy of the script. He gained a partial understanding and translated a few of the pages. Her father (Sebastian Kelley )four hundred years later passed on the family legacy to her (The 3 translated pages of Dee) to Jennifer Kelley. Jennifer understood them and has the ability to use a Shew Stone in the same way as Kelley.
Edward was a self-styled alchemist who claimed to be able to turn copper into gold by means of a secret powder that he had dug out of a Bishop's tomb in wales. As Dee's Scrier, he claimed to be able to invoke angels through a shew stone.
She is going to be a Herbalist/Alchemist style adventurer and have a wicker backpack for collecting herbs and clippers.. and bottles and little bags of powder to work her alchemy. Maybe a knife. And a miniature crystal ball that hangs on a chain around her neck.


I'll post some sketches soon.
