Biography
Juliette was born in 1769, making her no more than 13 years old when she became engaged to marry the Eighth Doctor in 1782. (EDA: The Adventuress of Henrietta Street)
Almost nothing is known of Juliette's early life. She never knew her parents. She had a sister whom she believed to be dead. She spent her short childhood in the custody of an organization whose name she never revealed; this was possibly a corporation such as the East India Company, or possibly the mystical House of Dutt in India, where she may have been forcibly trained in the tantric arts by the same tutor as Lisa-Beth Lachlan. There's no direct evidence of this, except that Lisa-Beth's journals of her time in India mention an 11-year-old girl called "Little Rose," and she would later consistently call Juliette "the Flower." (EDA: The Adventuress of Henrietta Street)
Juliette arrived in London as a "stray" at the age of 12. With no one else to turn to, she was taken in by Scarlette. She did not work as a prostitute there, something that began to grate on the other residents of the House, most of whom had to earn their keep with sex work. The Doctor and Juliette seem to have believed her to be a virgin, which is why she was chosen to ceremonially marry the Doctor in order to symbolically tie him to the Earth. This may not have been the case, however. (EDA: The Adventuress of Henrietta Street)
With the Doctor's arrival, Juliette began to assist him with his experiments. She came to hold a great fondness toward the Doctor, but after a series of vivid dreams or visions she became increasingly doubtful about the arranged marriage. Eventually she ran away from the House, changing her allegiance to Sabbath rather than go through with the ceremony. (EDA: The Adventuress of Henrietta Street)
After traveling with Sabbath for a time, Juliette returned to Earth. She is known to have spent a period in Hispaniola, and was last seen visiting an insane asylum in 1805, watching a play performed by the inmates there. (EDA: The Adventuress of Henrietta Street)
Appearance and habits
Juliette is described as a "pretty little red-head," with green eyes. She was intelligent, quiet, and well-mannered. At first she was very subservient to her mentor, Scarlette, with a sense of great duty toward her (and, arguably, something of a romantic crush). Juliette was literate in both English and French, though she wrote without punctuation. She referred to the Doctor as "Dr. Jack-of-the-Moon." (EDA: The Adventuress of Henrietta Street)
