Tall, thin, fair, dark brown hair in an elegant latticework formation with curls. Generally wears floor length beaded gowns in rich deep colors like purple, crimson, forest green. Carries a folding fan, wears elbow-length black gloves and gemmed necklaces. She's not stuffy or stuck up, just rich and elegant.

Speaks: slowly, deliberately, polite, faint British accent. Always exchanges pleasantries before business.

Lady Vanessa Von Mark, Phillipe's older sister. She's always considered her little brother to be precocious, overconfident, devious, and petty, and so she suspects one of his hare-brained schemes has finally got the better of him. Vanessa lives in a well-guarded gray stone estate on the banks of Lake Luxor with 100 acres of pristine cherry orchards and vineyards.

A well-built 6' stone wall surrounds her 100 acre estate, and within, perfectly groomed rose gardens, vineyards, ripe peaches, flowers in huge color-coordinated patterns on the lawn. (Lake shore access, with a stone-paved patio with umbrella furniture and long wooden pier, with a large sailboat bobbing near a bouy.) The main gate is of wrought iron, double-wide, with the two doors including a huge “V” “M” respectively.

Just inside is a brightly painted wooden hut with a 12' belltower, draped in hanging flowers. A 50-something man in fine gray velvet vest and green silk short is here.
