Vivien Braddock

Vivien Braddock, eponym and likely builder of the Braddock House, is a powerful witch and once a third of the Hecate.
== Background ==
=== Foundation ===
Vivien Braddock lived in the United States but was known to various members of the Discovery Club as a powerful witch. She is asked to attend a meeting in London in 1894 to discuss the formation of an organization to take the place of the Discovery Club that would have a more active role in countering Sol Invictus, the newly-emerged criminal power in the London occult underworld.
Braddock lent what assistance she could during her stay in London, fashioning wards for Freya Benton, Seamus Fenian, and Howard Keswick (and temporarily turning Faris into a chickadee) as they attempted to stop Sol Invictus from stealing valuable artifacts from the British Museum. The group manages to stop Howard's brother, Lars Keswick, from stealing the Stones of Memory.
Braddock, Benton, and Fenian would return to America together, planning to bring the Stones of Memory to a site in Chester, Illinois.
Freya would also ask Braddock to serve as the custodian for Excalibur, but knew she would need to take it back from her someday. 
=== Overdue Book ===
By 2007, Vivien Braddock has become a spooky story to kids in Chester, Illinois--the witch or old woman who haunts the old Braddock House on the top of the hill. 
Braddock is still alive, however, and she assists the Scooby Gang as they attempt to undo the evil unleashed by Jeremy Stockton, who had performed a ritual to release a monster known as Long Legged Larry from the book he had been bound to by Henry Colfax.
Braddock speaks with Hailee Pennington through a broach, giving instructions for how to undo the ritual performed by Stockton, and ultimately demanding that Pennington come to the house for training.
