!! Geillis Duncan
A Scottish woman who Claire meets in 18th century Inverness. Geillis is red-haired with extraordinary green eyes, and a slim figure. She is very attractive, so much so that Claire thinks that she could find a husband/lover in Inverness quite easily if she wished for it. However, she has a calculating, practical and cunning mind, seen when she chooses for a husband the fat and old Arthur Duncan, for his position and wealth, and later [[spoiler: takes Dougal [=MacKenzie=] as a lover, for his political and social influence and charismatic personality. Geillis is a patriot at heart, and this motivates many of her actions. She is determined to help Charles Stuart regain the throne of Scotland.]]
* AxCrazy: As she grows older, Geillis seems to become more and more mentally unstable--on the island of Jamaica it is clear to Claire that Geillis Duncan [[spoiler: Abernathy]] is mad as anything and dangerous to boot. When Roger reads her grimoire in ''Drums of Autumn'', he is chilled by it and later tells Brianna that it shows that she is completely crazy.
%%* TheBaroness
* BeenThereShapedHistory: While in Paris, Geillis was approached by the mother of revolutionary Marat, who asked if she should name her child 'Rudolph'. Geillis immediately told her that it was a bad idea. Later she wonders to Claire what would have happened if she had given the woman a different answer.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Is described as very beautiful, at least when she is younger, but deep inside she is not a nice person, callous and unfeeling, ready to do anything to get what she wants (even committing murder).
* BlackWidow: She killed two of her husbands--Edgars as a sacrifice so she could travel through the stones and Arthur Duncan to prevent her pregnancy and affair with Dougal [=MacKenzie=] from being discovered.
* BurnTheWitch: Claire and Geillie are accused of witchcraft, with this as a punishment.
* TheCynic: Has a very cynical view of the world, which is seen through her actions and her DeadpanSnarker trait.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Her first husband was abusive towards her, and she did not seem to have much of a social life outside of the SNP. It's not surprising that ''her husband'' became the person she used as a sacrifice to travel through the stones.
* FieryRedhead: She has red hair and can have a fiery temper at times.
* GreenEyes: Has extraordinary green eyes.
* IHaveManyNames: Geillis Duncan, Gillian Edgars, Geillis Abernathy, Melisande Robisceux.
%%* PragmaticHero
