Fascination (Scatterbrain, Special Executive) (5464 words)
Fascination feeds empathically off strong emotions, and given comments made in Captain Britain#12 (when she was working with the Technet) that she would not join the Special Executive for another three hundred years, it seems likely she is also extremely long lived, if not actually immortal.
Fascination is explicitly stated as having come up with the term "the Bastards of Rassilon" and referred to by Wardog as if she was one of their number, making it extremely likely that she is a prototype Loom Born Gallifreyan.
Fascination isn't actually seen in any panel of The Daredevils #10, but since the entire chapter takes place in the space of a few minutes sandwiched between two other chapters of similar brevity in which she is visible, it's reasonable to assume she is somewhere just "off-screen" for the duration of it.
Kinoeye | French horror: Jean Rollin's Fascination (1979) (1796 words)
This feminine appropriation of the grim reaper (as Eva wields her scythe in the slaughter of the thieves who would interrupt the women's cult meeting) is one of the most iconic images from the film.
Thus Fascination enters the regions of soft-porn and exploitation cinema, while remaining imbued with horror conventions—here the men are always eager for sex and the women always willing to use this desire to lure men to their deaths.
So when considering Fascination's position on the boundary where the art of "elite" culture meets "trash" cinema[12], the exact position is rendered all the more problematic by the lack of recourse to the supernatural and the subsequent blurring of genre.
