Wendy VII, born Wendy Severn, was a woman who lived as a pickpocket in home universe until she accidentally boarded an interdimensional shuttle leading to Hilbert's.

Description

Physical appearance

Wendy was African-American, with black hair tied in a bun. When she first came to Hilbert's, she was wearing a black leather jacket and carrying a handbag. (PROSE: The Grand Multiverse Hotel)

Personality

Wendy VII was bitter and cynical about the world, although this did not translate into an at all lessened moral core; even during the period of her life when she resorted to theft, she took care never to steal items too expensive for their owners to replace, or which held sentimental value to them. (PROSE: The Grand Multiverse Hotel)

Powers & abilities

Having trained to become a magician in her youth, Wendy had unusual dexterity and a talent for misdirection (both skills which she leveraged during her time as a pickpocket). (PROSE: The Grand Multiverse Hotel)

Biography

Wendy Severn grew up in a mundane universe, in the United States of America. She had a brother, Will, to whom she was quite close. As a child, Wendy practiced to become a magician, but, unable to find work, she turned her skills to theft. She strove to be an “ethical thief”, only stealing items which her marks could replace without great inconvenience, and which, as far as she could tell, held no sentimental value.

Wendy took to posing as a student on the bus rides to and from Michigan University, although she was not actually registered at the university. This made her a known face to the bus driver and to the students themselves, the targets of her thievery. One foggy night in March, she accidentally stepped onto an interdimensional shuttle instead of the bus she was expecting. Aboard, she met Sylvester Shoebill, a conman from the Prime Universe.

Once the shuttle arrived at the Hotel, she met the Queen of the Black Market, to whom Shoebill owed a debt. They had dinner, only for it to be interrupted by the Queen's attempted assassination by the Wellsian Forga sog-Forgos. In the end, she willingly let herself be romanticised by Pythagoras due to circumstances making this the only way to save the life of the Queen.

Although they agreed that due to the origin of her feelings, she should try to spend some time away from the Queen to see if they wore off, the two remained friends, with the Queen gifting Wendy her Void Limousine to allow her to travel the Multiverse on her own terms. Thereupon, she took to actually calling herself “Wendy VII”, the way the various people she had encountered kept mishearing “Wendy Severn”. (PROSE: The Grand Multiverse Hotel)
