Name: Marissa Strings.
Age: Supposedly 28.
Height: Varies per puppet, herself 5'8" and Larissa is at 2'5".
Bust: 34C
Favorite Puppet: Larissa, a lolita version of herself. Using this puppet she often leads unsuspecting prey into her strings or larger puppets.
Occupation: Child entertainer, though not knowingly to the owner of the puppets she invades.
Abilities:
Now you see her, now you don't.: Marrisa has the ability to be invisible to the normal human eye, as well as being unable to be touched when she is in such a state due to ethereal nature.
One, two, three..: Marissa can control any existing puppet that was designed to function by string control, the strings would lead into nowhere but still move as Marissa will usually not show herself. If Marissa has control over a puppet, she can manipulate the size of this puppet as well.
I need a Volunteer.: Marissa can attach her strings to a live person as well, vying for control over their physical body. The only mental influence she can vice is refusing to give back their body as they are used as puppets. The magic behind this trick is strong, however the process takes longer than with a normal puppet.
Story
Marissa Strings was once a very popular entertainer for children with her puppet shows and she absolutely enjoyed the sound of their laughter. Sadly, Marissa was also a very sick girl and back in the time she lived there was no cure for her illness. It was no matter to her however, she always kept up a smile and continued her work to help the children.
This continued up to the day that Marissa dropped down dead after a performance, luckily it was behind the curtains and none of the children noticed this. The only thing they could see was the motionless puppet, Larissa, on her little stage.
It took a while untill it was noticed that Larissa wasn't being cleared away and it was quite a shock when they found Marissa on the floor behind the stage as lifeless as her puppet Larissa. She was immediately brought to the coroner and declared dead before being buried the next day in one of the busiest burials in town.
It is said that to this day, Larissa can still be seen in the abandoned theater, performing her final act because it never completely finished. Marissa is not often seen with her, but when she is she normally is covering her puppet's eyes because "The innocent should not see the traumatizing endings."
