A Soothsayer was a member of the Sibylline Sisterhood that were in Pompeii in 79 CE. She had eyes painted on the back of her hands - a sign of a soothsayer. She was the first of the Sisterhood to see the TARDIS, or "Blue Box", that had appeared in a prophecy. She had psychic powers due to breathing in dust from Vesuvius that was converting her into a Pyrovile, and could see time thanks to the rift activity there. It is likely that she died during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. (DW: The Fires of Pompeii)
