Jillie Djinn was the Chief Hermetic Scribe at the Manuscriptorium.

Biography[]

Becoming the Chief Hermetic Scribe[]

Jillie Djinn first became Chief Hermetic Scribe when Hugh Fox was fired due to being coerced into aiding Simon Heap with the Placement, which would have killed Marcia Overstrand had it succeeded, and was very unpopular with the scribes.[1] Jillie Djinn was meant to be Picked during the previous Manuscriptorium Draw, but DomDaniel wanted a Chief Hermetic Scribe who would do his bidding, and thus, he fixed the Pick.[2]

Jillie was prostrated on the couch next to Jim Knee when the Darke Domaine overtook Marcia's rooms, but was killed when Marcia cast the Great UnDoing.[6] She was succeeded by Beetle as the Chief Hermetic Scribe.[7]

Ghosthood[]

As ghosts must remain for a year and day in the place where they entered ghosthood, Jillie's ghost occupied Marcia's sofa, and had not spoken as of three-months-in the duration,[8] though not long after, seeing Beetle wearing the same Chief Hermetic Scribe robes she was wearing, prompted her to finally realized she was dead, which caused her to howl out in grief.[9]
