Dr. Ariadne Radcliffe

"'Resolve it or imprison it.'"Dr. Ariadne Jeanne Inés Radcliffe is a vaporous chemist, specialising in a wide variety of gases and their effects.

Resilient, cunning and determined; Ariadne is someone you wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of. Though that side is rarely seen, Dr. Radcliffe would be considered frightening to some.

Appearance
Mid-20s with a thin complexion. Wavy dark brown hair left to it's own accord. Normal blue eyes, but often flash lilac during certain emotional states (caused from an experiment with toxic vapours).

Biography
Born to a wealthy English father and trophy French mother; Ariadne Radcliffe had an isolated childhood, due to her mother's intense belief that she should have no friends whatsoever. Attempting to play with her father, she became fascinated with the smoke bellowing from his pipe.

Despite educated women being rare at the time, Ariadne manged to gain a formal education from an acquaintance of her father's, Professor Charles Hobbimer. Gaining a doctorate under a pseudonym, Ariadne became prolific in the study of gases and vapours; as well as hallucinogens and stimulants. This newfound education alienated and eventually estranged her from her family.

After nearly half a decade of experience from around the world; Ariadne received a letter from Dr. Henry Jekyll to be a member of the Society of Arcane Sciences, which she accepted as its first Vaporous Chemist. Ariadne was a witness of Oliver Dawlish's supposed suicide/murder, and had also witnessed Edward Hyde and Dawlish arguing.

Ariadne then later became acquainted with Dr. Hawley Griffin, Lewis B. Weir and Millie Eliza Griffin during a party at the Society. Witnessing that Griffin was punching the unconscious Weir, Ariadne slapped Griffin on the face and demanded that he help revive Weir. After Weir, nearly dead, was revived by Millie; she introduced herself to Weir.
