Cleo Aleshire is a Witch Hunter from Montreal.

Relationship

She has a working relationship with members of the Light House but isn't personally close to any of them.<ref>From my observation, the one on the motorcycle doesn’t fit the group.  She’s an ally of theirs, they know her from passing meetings, but she isn’t a bosom companion.- Excerpt from False Moves 12.8</ref>

Appearance

She's a black women, with short oiled hair, red lipstick and heavy eye liner.<ref>Cleo Aleshire from Montreal.  A different breed.  Thirty or so, black, hair short and oiled close to the scalp, red lipstick, heavy eye shadow, and a level stare.

She hadn’t gone to the Lighthouse to get any particular talents sharpened or honed or pulled out of her.  No, she’d taken another route.- </ref>She has a narrow waist, large chest and long legs. She wears a loose fitting shirt with a necklace underneath and carries a camera and a large bag.<ref>She wore a loose-fitting shirt with decorative trim at the wide collar and hem, a draping necklace that was hidden by the shirt, and she had an old-fashioned camera with a flash provided through a box mounted on top, hanging from a strap at her neck, and a cube-ish shaped bag at her hip, strap extending to the far shoulder.  She looked more a photographer than anything, or a tourist- she looked like she stood out, and she already had been someone who’d stand out anywhere, with a classic buxom figure, narrow waist, big chest, long legs, but also black skin and a striking, severe expression.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/07/20/false-moves-12-8/ Excerpt from False Moves 12.8</ref>

Abilities

She collects magic items from practitioners she's killed, similar to how a collector works.

She has a polaroid camera, whenever she develops a picture taken with it anyone inside gets transported back to where they were when the photo was taken.<ref>She plucked the photo from the camera.  Still a black square, the actual picture yet to fade in.

And when it did, Avery would reappear where she’d been standing.- Excerpt from False Moves 12.8</ref>

She also wears a necklace containing the fingers of practitioners she's either killed or captured and kept alive as a power source.<ref>That necklace was black cord wrapped around fingers.  Twenty or so, some dried up to the point of being mummified, beef jerky skin over bone.  Some were fresh, blood oozing out of them still.

“Trophies,” John said.  “Something taken from the practitioners she hunts, so she can use their power when she needs it.”

“Why?” Avery asked.

“Because collecting trophies makes it easier to get more trophies,” Cleo said, with her heavy accent.  “The ones that still bleed are from the ones I’ve kept alive and confined.  The ones who piss me off, or the ones who are small, young, and manageable like you.”- Excerpt from False Moves 12.8</ref>

She rides a motorcycle.<ref>The motorcycle was already parked, but instead of taking a spot, Cleo had pulled it up to the walkway by the front office.- Excerpt from False Moves 12.a</ref>

Chronology

She was part of the team that Investigated Kennet after Raphael failed to come back.
