Scarlett Johansson

**Yvonne**, otherwise known in Hell as **Saber**, is a sinner demon and one of the patients of the Happy Hotel.

She chooses to join Charlie Morningstar's program as a last resort attempt to redeem herself and reunite with her young son, René, by ascending to Heaven.

## Appearance

Saber has a slender, hourglass shaped build, standing between 6 to 7 feet of height. She sports wavy, shoulder-length dark ash brown hair, which she generally keeps styled into two loose victory rolls. She has a pale purple complexion that fades towards her extremities into a darker gray shade.

She has two sets of eyes, the top set being larger than the bottom one, with bright yellow scleras and pinprick black pupils that disappear when shifting to her demon form. Underneath her bottom set of eyes run two deep eyebags. Her droopy eyelids form a dull, listless gaze, with short and barely visible lashes. Her mouth is thin, with two small fangs sticking out, resembling a scorpion's jaws.

Her everyday attire consists of a long-sleeved beige turtleneck, which sleeves she often keeps pulled up to a three-quarter length, and a deep red, calf-length skirt over which sits a thick, black belt. She may also be seen wearing a cream long-sleeved dress shirt tucked into navy blue sailor pants, with three golden buttons on each side.

Albeit her scorpion attributes only show up in her full demon form, Saber can manifest her scorpion tail at will.

## Personality

Saber is known to be a gloomy, apathetic and uninterested sinner with a deep self-loathing streak, with the tendency to drown her sorrows away with any sort of strong alcohol within reach. In reality, this false front is but a reaction to the circumstances that brought her to Hell in the first place.

Deep within, Saber is a gentle and affectionate soul, a devoted ally, and a compassionate friend. Discreet and attentive, she's always prepared to lend a sympathetic ear and words of comfort to those she loves and cares for. Despite this, she is also stated to have a hidden vicious side she only brings out when facing dangerous situations.

When not under the influence, Saber is a polite and sharp sinner with a very crafty, meticulous side. When heavily intoxicated, however, she tends to lose her self-restraint, making her prone to swear or act rudely towards those around her, which is a side most demons know Saber for.

At the Happy Hotel, however, Saber does seem to be genuinely attempting to rectify her behavior. She is noted to have at least begun tapering off her alcohol intake, albeit not without relapses — though her heavy drinking episodes are more sparse and generally a result of the profound sense of guilt associated with her and her son's deaths.

## Abilities

### Natural Abilities

* **Demon Transformation:** Saber has the ability to transform into a more powerful demon form when angered, sprouting six additional limbs, more prominent jaws and a larger, heftier scorpion tail.

### Skillset

* **Cooking:** Saber learned her way around the stove and evolved into a modest cook while living as a housewife. She is stated to not exactly enjoy cooking, but she will do it for those she cares about if the opportunity arises.
* **Sewing and tailoring:** Saber was taught how to sew and tailor by her mother, a practiced seamstress herself, and carried the trade on to her afterlife, making it her main occupation in Hell.
* **Singing:** Saber has moderate vocal abilities, and used to enjoy singing during her childhood years and later into her first marriage. After remarrying, she occasionally sang only to her young son. In Hell, she no longer sings as much; however, she may seldom be found soothingly singing to herself over a drink.

### Unique Abilities

* **Retractable Scorpion Tail:** Albeit keeping it concealed most of the time for convenience, Saber can summon her scorpion tail whenever needed, both for aggressive and defensive purposes.

## Trivia

* The name Yvonne is a name of French origin, meaning "yew tree". Since yew wood was used for bows, it may also be related to its masculine counterpart, meaning "archer".
	+ The name Saber, also spelled *Sabre*, shares the same weaponry-themed connotation, meaning "sword" both in English and French.
* Saber is stated to be from Le Havre, France when she was alive.
	+ She has an older sister.
	+ She was born into a lower-middle class, period-typical patriarchal family with a big emphasis on appearances and good manners.
	+ She later moves to the farming village of Valmont with her husband, where she lives until her untimely end.
* Saber speaks with a pronounced northern French accent. She's quite proud of her native language, and tends to get miffed whenever a French word gets misspelled or mispronounced.
* Saber begins to drink heavily only after arriving in Hell. She tends to be a rather "sloppy drunk", with a tendency to blackout upon reaching her limit. As a running joke, Saber is stated to have thrown up on Alastor's shoes at least once.
	+ She has a preference for strong, sweet drinks with a bitter aftertaste.
	+ She's not very fond of cocktails, and prefers her drinks straight.
	+ She is stated to favor hard liquor, with a particular taste for cognac.
* Saber's favorite color is green.
* Saber's favorite kind of food is typically homemade, warm and hearty.
	+ She favors fish over meat, with a preference for sour, tangy tastes.
	+ She is stated to have a sensory aversion for any kind of food with a slimy, viscous texture.
* Saber's favorite song and leitmotif is stated to be 1942's "We'll Meet Again" by Dame Vera Lynn, Ross Parker and Hughie Charles (also sung by Alastor), a song she used to sing to her son when playing in the fields together. Another song she is stated to enjoy particularly is 1935's "Summertime" by George Gerschwin, which she also sang while lost in her memories. As for songs specific to her country, she resonates most with 1941's "Seule ce soir" by Léo Marjane.
