With Joy, from the Hill
The Watchmaker's Daughter was a renowned inventor and toymaker, specializing in exceedingly complex clockwork creations. She kept a workshop in Watchmaker's Hill; at one point she was in business with her father, one W. Paley, but was still highly accomplished in her own right. She designed toys capable of animation, speech, and in at least some, moderate intelligence. These have something of a sinister nature, being known to have committed acts of violence both to their owners and others.
She was a focus of interest from both Mr. Cups and Mr. Iron, with the latter having a particular animosity towards her. Under pressure from both, she unfortunately drowned herself.
The Affair of the Big Rat and the Plaster Face[]
The Albino Rat was a onetime companion of the Watchmaker's Daughter. She had the Big Rat protect the Watchmaker's Daughter from the Masters, in exchange for constructing the Plaster Face, an elaborate clockwork display capable of changing expression. For reasons unknown, this protection failed.
