}} | }}A '''soothsayer''' was a member of the [[Sibylline Sisterhood]] in Pompeii in [[79]] AD. She had eyes painted on the back of her hands — a sign of the cult. She was the first of the Sisterhood to see [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]], or "Blue Box", that had appeared in a prophecy. She had psychic powers from breathing in dust from Vesuvius that was converting her into a [[Pyrovile]], and could see through time because of the rift activity there. It is likely that she died during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Fires of Pompeii]]''). | ||
