<strong>DRAFT — recovered worldbuilding notes. Not yet reconciled against other sources.</strong><br>
Source names this character <strong>"Shivani Baxter"</strong> rather than Astrid Baxter. Preserved verbatim. Possibly same character under different given name, possibly a separate character — decision deferred.<br>

<h2>Astrid Baxter</h2>
<h3>Summary (recovered as "Shivani Baxter")</h3>
<p>Shivani Baxter is a name known throughout the world, but especially in Indiana. <em>(Source says Indiana, then Uttar Pradesh — preserved.)</em> In <strong>Uttar Pradesh</strong>, the graphic of <strong>SB</strong> has been printed on many alley walls. It is a sign of horror and retribution for the wicked.</p>
<h3>Public Emergence</h3>
<p>Shivani formally announced herself in the year ____. A <strong>voice recorder came in the mail</strong> for the police, giving them an exact play-by-play for capturing the organization called <strong>Murkt</strong> — a terrorist organization known most famously for <strong>kidnapping and arson</strong>.</p>
<p>At first the police were very suspicious. They thought this was some kind of trick from Murkt. In the end, the <strong>Chief of Police</strong> was able to convince the captain it was worth a shot. After capturing Murkt, the police captain announced the existence of the woman known as <strong>Shivani Baxter</strong> to be a <strong>public symbol of fear.</strong></p>
<h3>NIA Investigation</h3>
<p>With the uproar of Shivani as a public symbol, the <strong>NIA</strong> stepped in. Utilizing voice recognition tools, checking vocal patterns and inflections — they were still unable to match any voice in their system.</p>
<p>They ran the voice through a system called <strong>MARKS</strong>, a global voice database. Still no match.</p>
<p>The Head of the NIA, in a statement regarding the recently named <strong>"Baxter Documents"</strong> — referring to the set of <strong>6 letters</strong> left by Shivani Baxter for the local police force of Uttar Pradesh — referred to Shivani as <strong>"Inhumanly Sagacious."</strong> Someone that thought like no one he had ever encountered.</p>
<p>He went so far as to say that had he lacked the knowledge of her chastity, he could have expected Shivani to be <strong>the child of the late Sydney Lane</strong>.</p>
