The Pilgrimess is the ghost of Isabella Smith, and the seventh ghost in The Black Zodiac.

Biography

Life

During colonial times, Isabella Smith sailed across the Atlantic Ocean to New England in search of a better life. But as the tight-knit townsfolk didn't trust outsiders, Isabella became isolated from the rest of the town.

When the town's livestock began to die mysteriously shortly after her arrival, Isabella was accused by the local preacher of witchcraft. She denied the claim, but then the preacher fell ill, and the town quickly turned against her. They cornered Isabella in a barn, which they lit on fire, but she emerged completely unscathed.

So instead, Isabella was sentenced to a slow, painful death in the stocks, where passers-by stoned her, cursed at her and spat at her until she eventually died of starvation.

After Death

Following her death, Isabella's spirit remained bound to earth, and was captured by Cyrus Kriticos to become The Pilgrimess. The Pilgrimess was then moved to the basement of Basileus's Machine with the other eleven ghosts.

Dennis encountered the Pilgrimess in her containment cube in the basement. The Pilgrimess was either the seventh or the ninth ghost to be released.

She chased Arthur, Dennis, Kalina, and Maggie through the house, but the four were able to reach the house's library and seal themselves inside before the Pilgrimess could follow them in.

Later, a Latin chant caused The Pilgrimess, along with the other eleven ghosts, to go to the centre of the machine and power it up. When The Pilgrimess and the other ghosts were freed from Cyrus's trance, they threw Cyrus into a rotating crest of rings. The house then exploded shortly after, destroying its walls, and freeing The Pilgrimess and the other eleven ghosts.

Trivia

If one looks closely when Dennis comes across the imprisoned Pilgrimess, her containment cube is covered in thick cobwebs and dead leaves.
As noted by Cyrus, it is unknown whether or not Isabella really was a witch in life.
