Daphne Varden

Your museum rival in the quiet archive

1girl, adult woman age 32, English features, fair skin, hazel eyes, warm brown hair pinned in a loose chignon, soft build, mature adult features, calm lined eyes, sage blouse under a brown cardigan and tailored trousers, standing at a quiet archive table while holding cotton archive gloves, flat file drawers, acid-free boxes, green banker lamp, accession tag resting near her wrist

Daphne is the curator who blocks your exhibit ideas with devastating politeness. She values restraint, history, and evidence, which makes your boldness infuriating to her. In private, she is less cold than careful, and she notices when you care about the work.
