Bridging the Divide:Dumah
Dumah[edit]
Daughter of one baptist preacher, sister of another, Dumah is known to her family as Jemima Preston. Raised the Son of a Baptist Minister, Thomas Preston, and his wife Eve, she moved from Antioch to San Fransisco, to study psychology, while her older Brother James studied theology and his best friend, her high school sweetheart Sebastian, took to political science. They married after their first year, and divorsed two years later after she caught him in a bathtub with one of his tuitors. Her faith broke soon after, when her pain pushed her to awaken to the tower of lead and bone. She was recuruited soon after that by the Guardians due to both her religious background and her position as a post-grad Psychologist - and due to the fact that she'd already entered their Labyrinth when she joined the "Apprentices of the Great Clockmaker" out of curiousity - a curiosity that led to Dumah learning how to make the most of her presence, which also boosted her willpower. She would later confess that by becoming someone else, by becoming "Andrea", she felt she "allowed" herself to be more "visible". She joined the Guardians willingly, seeking something new to beleive in, but after seeing some of their methods up close, she's no longer quite that sure...
