**Julie Briggs** is the protagonist of the 2017 short horror film *Skin Deep.* A biochemist seeking to unlock the key to human regeneration, Julie was transformed into a humanoid snake creature by her experimental serum after she tested it on herself.

She is voiced by Kaitlyn van der Zweep.

## Physical Appearance

### Current

Julie is a humanoid woman with snake-like features, including dark-green scales, long claws and exposed fangs, and glowing yellow eyes. She has dark-blue hair styled in a short bob, and wears a short-sleeved plaid dress shirt, blue jeans, and a large brown knapsack around her front.

### Human

Julie was a young Caucasian woman with dark-blue hair styled in a bob and black eyes. Her left arm was mutated by her skin condition, with her hand having become green and branch-like, with a brown color traveling up her forearm. Her outfit remained the same as her mutated form, save for wearing elbow-length black gloves.

## Characteristics

Julie is an extremely-dedicated woman. However, her persistence can put others in distress, and she seems to have a one-track mind in regards to her work.

It is unknown if Julie's mental state was affected by her mutation, but she still appears to have her original personality intact.

## Background

Some time before the events of the film, Julie was awarded a research grant that she could put towards her work on human regeneration. On February 3rd, 2017, Julie's father succumbed to his condition and passed away. His body was preserved at Julie's request so she could use it to further her research, and her wish was labelled as controversial by a newspaper. Some time before the film, Julie acquired a greenhouse in the woods, which she would use as her base of operations, and hired an assistant. She soon began to exhibit symptoms similar to her father's skin condition.

## Skin Deep

On October 9th, Julie kills a snake and takes it back to her lab, narrating her findings as she goes along. She adds the dead snake to her concoction, then adds the tail of a live lizard to it. She then administers the callous serum to the lizard, and its tail grows back. She lets the lizard go and takes off her glove, telling her father that she's developed symptoms like his, but swears that they won't be the end of her. Julie administers the serum to her arm, and waits for a moment to see a reaction. Her skin begins to bubble and writhe, and Julie loses control of her arm as she falls on the floor and passes out.

An unknown amount of time later, Julie is woken up by her assistant knocking on the door of her lab. As she gets up, she realizes that she's turned into a snake-like creature, and remarks that her assistant will assist her in "new ways". She lets him in and kills him, and uses his skin to put herself back to a normal human form. She remarks that the serum won't last long, but it will do for now. She goes to the newspaper clippings on the wall, telling her father that she swears she'll bring him back.

## Powers and Abilities

### Skillset

* **Intelligence:** Julie is a knowledgeable scientist and biochemist.

### Unique Abilities

* **Superhuman Strength:** After transforming into a snake creature, Julie gained some level of superhuman strength that she used to tear her assistant apart.

### Weaknesses

* **Skin Condition (formerly):** Julie formerly suffered from a lethal skin condition that she inherited from her father. This condition was presumably cured upon transforming.

## Relationships

### Mr. Briggs

Mr. Briggs was Julie's father and the main reason for her becoming a scientist. Her desire to bring her father back from the dead motivates her research, and she dedicates her research writings to her father.

### Julie's Assistant

Julie's assistant periodically came to her greenhouse lab to water the plants. The full extent of their relationship is unknown, but Julie had no problem killing him to use his body for research.
