History
Date of Birth: November 5th, 1972
Home: Bratenahl, Cleveland, Ohio, United States
Family: William and Miranda Muller (parents)
Awakening: Preordainment (a lone child, she was always a strange girl, drawn to the macabre and gothic pop cultures; she could always see and hear ghosts, however, and even as a child tried to help them "move on" by resolving their Passions; her Awakening came when she continued these efforts even into college, and outraged a ghost who attacked her while in Catharsis; though seriously hurt and disturbed by her new frame of perspective on the world, she didn't blame the wraith, as she intuitively understood what happened), 1992
Mentor: Hera Archili
The Test: Trial by Knowledge (friendly ghosts actually reported the flare of magickal energy from her Awakening to the nearest chantry, and from there she was recruited into an ecumenical Westernized Euthanatos marabout; her mentor approached about her schooling, and invited into the "Persephone Program", which was the Pomegranate Deme sect, and ultimately she soared through her agama re as if she were Persephone herself)
Comrades: Hera Archili, Phyllis Lazaki, Sayana Lenta, Shaktar Utathya, Walker Maddison, Dusty Peterson, Wyler Stone
Key Event #1: Awe & Wonder (Selma maintained a discreet distance from Restless politics while still continuing her work as a helpful medium and guide for the Dead)
Key Event #2: War (Stygia cracked down on necromancers and other "meddlers" among the Quick and sent dangerous enforcer ghosts after her, but her freewraith allies and fellow mages backed her up and repelled the Hierarchs)
Key Event #3: Personal Tragedy (Selma escaped Cleveland before Stygia came again and chose to move to a small city, where the necropolis was relatively neutral territory, opting for Centropolis, Missouri, while she sought to reconfigure her life and Path)
Key Event #4: Awe & Wonder (ultimately, after long meditation and communion, Selma decided to became a biographer of wraiths' lives)
Transition: Shift in Purpose (to hedge her bets, she still connected with shamans and mediums located all over the area, just in case; this was when she encountered Wyler)
Vivliothiki Thanatou (Sanctum)
Location: Centropolis, Missouri, United States
Structure: Bunker
Stock: A mausoleum in a major cemetery; she's stocked the place cthonic ritualistic tools, an altar to Persephone, and candles for light; emergency bedding/furnishings also exist
Traits: Arcane 4
Significant Other
Name: Wyler Stone, 2006
Nature: Romantic
Wyler
Weakness
Left Alone
Selma has a policy of not badgering the Dead. But some ghosts never want to be bothered at all and lash out with even a polite greeting, endangering her life and soul.
Likelihood of Corruption
Average.
She keeps her Avatar pure and her Path narrow and straight. Selma also knows what to look out for when it comes Spectres, but her awareness is hardly foolproof.
