Daisy Marsh

**Daisy Marsh** (d. April 2020) was a murderer, a daughter of Obed Marsh and thus a member of the Marsh family. In 2019 and 2020, she was working closely with her father to help bring about a successful Babalon Working ritual in Pleasant Green. She bore a very close resemblance to a distant relative, Kennedy Fisher.

## Iraq

At some point after Dr. Allen and Barbara Sayers brought Melody Cartwright to Iraq, Daisy Marsh joined them in an apartment block in Mosul. Cartwright was confined to a small room, chained to her bed and very rarely allowed to go outside. During her confinement she established that Marsh was in charge of the group. Cartwright was eventually helped by Sayers to escape the apartment after it became clear that Allen and Marsh were perfectly happy to kill Cartwright if she didn't submit to their plans.

In response to the this betrayal, Sayers was taken out of Mosul by Marsh to a town a hour south of the city called Al-Qayyarah and it was there that Marsh killed her and buried the body in a shallow grave on the west bank of the Tigris. Sayers body was quickly discovered, the ground being unsuitable as a permanent burial spot because of the sandy earth and the high winds. Dashcam footage of a local taxi placed Sayers and Marsh together in Mosul on the night of her murder. However, Marsh's physical resemblance to her distant relative, Kennedy Fisher, meant that 'Jasper', whether intentionally or not, mistook the killer for the podcaster.

When Matthew Heawood travelled out to join Jasper and view the evidence and crime scene for himself, he by chance saw Marsh ordering a coffee in a café in Mosul. He also mistook Marsh for Fisher at first and gave chase but lost the woman in the crowd. He was at a loss as to explain the person he saw until Melody Cartwright saw the dashcam footage and identified the woman as Daisy Marsh. John Silence later confirmed that Daisy was daughter to Obed Marsh, who by this point was suspected of being the immortal Comte de Saint Germain.

## Pleasant Green

While Fisher was investigating her family history in Innsmouth, there were a few times when people were surprised by her appearance, swearing they'd seen her somewhere quite different only a few minutes earlier. This might indicate that Daisy Marsh was also visiting the town at this time, but might also just be a result of Innsmouth's odd street plans that occasionally defied reality. The next confirmed sighting of Daisy Marsh was in Pleasant Green after Heawood had been captured and handed over to Obed Marsh by Jasper. She was clearly amused by Heawood's devotion to her doppelganger, making an unsettling offer for him to "pretend I'm her".

Marsh was in attendance with Obed Marsh and the possessed Melody Cartwright when they attempted to perform the Babalon Working. With few surviving witnesses to the event, the exact details are unclear but it seems that Heawood, in an effort to save Fisher, disrupted the ritual. Obed Marsh ordered his daughter to kill Heawood but instead it appears that Heawood managed to push Daisy, instead of Kennedy, into the emerging portal to the Dreamlands. Not being the correct blood sacrifice, the ritual failed and everyone, except Fisher and including Heawood, disappeared along with the village once again.

While not confirmed, it is assumed that Daisy Marsh died at the failed Babalon Working in Pleasant Green in April 2020.
