One incarnation of Jenny applied to become a [[Maid]] of [[the Strange and Wonderful House]] after weighing the pros and cons at length. The [[Maid (Our Strange and Wonderful House)|elder Maid]] who interviewed her warned Jenny that the Maids were aware of her nature, and that other incarnations of her were known to the House already. She was skeptical of the prospect of inducting this Jenny as a Maid, fearing that her unique nature could become a burden as much as a blessing. Jenny, trying her best to charm the older woman, argued that she should leave the matter up to the House Herself. The elder Maid went over the duties and limitations of Staff again, including the fact that a Maid could never leave the House again and could only marry among the rest of Staff. After Jenny accepted these terms, the elder Maid reluctantly agreed to subject her to [[the Test]].

===Guardian of the Ink Wells=== | |||
Also known by the nickname “Inkstain”, the Guardian of [[the Ink Wells]] of [[the Strange and Wonderful House]] was a teenaged girl wearing robes and a pair of aviator goggles. As Guardian of the Ink Wells, she kept watch over a room locked behind a gate whose bars were giant, golden pens, whose cement floor held circular wells filled with all the inks and paints imaginable. | |||
When [[Oliver (Our Strange and Wonderful House)|Oliver]], an artist and resident of the House, visited the Ink Wells to replenish his stock of ink, she initially kept the lights off and asked him what he wanted in an ominous voice, before playfully revealing her true, unthreatening appearance and letting him take what he needed.
