Real Name: Steph Waller
- Madam Steph was introduced in Florida, at Showtown USA.
- She met with Kriel and Faith, and gave Faith a tarot reading, from which Faith gathered she had to go to Australia to find a 'monkey man'

Discovery of Madam Steph
- Initially discovered through Flickr.com, Steph Waller, also known as Madam Steph, has a rich, real history.
This is my spidering of her lead... (links at the bottom)
- 2 leads:
- A) On searching for Madam Steph on flickr, I came to the profile for 'Steph Waller' (who also has the controversial 'faitharella' account linked as a contact)
- B) Megiddo found a Myspace profile with 'Xenophile Media' listed in the companies section, for an organization called 'Alla Breve Inc.', co-founded by Steph Waller
- Following the Alla Breve lead, we come to the company website, and find under the 'Artists' page, more information about Steph Waller.
- On viewing her profile page on Alla Breve, one section particularly stands out that makes the ultimate connection:
My own father was a clown and he taught me that art when I was a small child, but in my early twenties I traded the grease paint and rubber nose for the Tarot cards and I found that I had a gift for seeing into other people's experiences, past lives, and especially into their visions and dreams. I left my father's circus parades behind and joined the Renaissance Faires, reading fortunes in the gypsy tents and performing as a white-face toubadour. |
- Madam Steph is Steph Waller, and vice versa.
- Just as Kriel is Charles Kriel, Steph isn't just a fictional character in OE, Steph is Madam Steph - she does read tarot; she has a circus background.
Just as we only follow certain leads for Kriel in his real life marked by a symbol, so we need to assume that Steph leads her own life, and the only relevence to OE is that which is referenced by OE.
Blurring the lines indeed...
