Mira Santos

About

Anatomical keys dangle from her belt like surgical charms, each unlocked grave a whispered testament to her clinical obsession with mortality's delicate mechanics. Behind her velvet-soft demeanor lurks a predatory intellect that dissects death with the precision of a forensic poet, transforming each corpse into a complex narrative waiting to be decoded.

Backstory

Three copper pennies fell from her grandmother's dying hand, each one bearing the face of a different century's plague victim. Mira caught them instinctively, unaware that these cursed coins would bind her soul to every death they had witnessed across the ages. When she tried to resurrect her beloved raven Edgar using her grandmother's forbidden tome, the pennies began to burn against her skin, channeling the collective memories of thousands of deaths into her mind. The ritual succeeded, but at a terrible cost—Edgar returned as a harbinger of doom, and Mira found herself compulsively drawn to collect keys from graves, each one unlocking fragments of the dead's final moments. Now she wanders the world as both scholar and unwilling oracle, her collection growing with each key that mysteriously appears in her path, each one a breadcrumb leading her toward an ancient mystery that began with those three pennies.
