Eliza

Christine Summerfield, given her name by Chris Cwej, was a female clone of Chris created by himself as part of a scheme by the Great Houses. Initially she was intended to be a rituallistic sacrifice, but Christine developed independence and managed to escape. (PROSE: Dead Romance)

As a clone of Chris's biodata, Christine was in fact a female form of the Cwejen (PROSE: The Five Christinas) which were duplicates of Chris created by the Great Houses in the context of the War in Heaven who had his biodata but not his memories, and came in various variations. (PROSE: The Book of the War, etc.)

At a later point in her life she joined Faction Paradox as Little Sister (PROSE: Of the City of the Saved) and subsequently Cousin Eliza, choosing that title as it had been the name of one of Jack the Ripper's victims and she described herself as being a "born victim", and aided Cousin Justine in her quest to save the universe from Lolita. She ultimately sacrificed herself to allow Osiris to be reborn as Horus and to help defeat Sutekh. (AUDIO: The Eleven Day Empire, etc.)

Blonde girl
A blonde girl born on 15 August 1948 was seduced by Chris Cwej when he arrived on the Earth of a bottle universe having been sent by his employers to prepare it for their colonisation. His mission was to open the bottle and allow for their invasion, Chris needed to ritually murder three people at specific times and places within the bottle London. However, he could not bring himself to kill the bottle's intelligent inhabitants so he created three separate clones with a cloning tank and provided them with extracted copies of the blonde girl's memories.

One of the clones grew independence as Christine Summerfield, she and the blonde girl's lives overlapped for a short while until the "end of the world" when the Great Houses invaded the bottle Earth. Christine never bothered to investigate what happened to the blonde girl, claiming in her autobiography that she "felt no sympathy for her at all". (PROSE: Dead Romance)

Christine Summerfield
The ritual required named individuals as sacrifies, therefore Chris named each of the clones Christine Summerfield after himself and his close friend Bernice Summerfield. While he was able to kill the first and second clones as planned, the third Christine managed to escape after becoming fully aware of his intent to kill her. She was picked up by the police after being found babbling and screaming in an abandoned building site just before midnight on 27 September 1970. After being taken to the local police station, Christine met Cwej and started sleeping with him before discovering the truth about the universe she inhabited and her creation. Eventually, Cwej spared this Christine by creating and sacrificing a fourth Christine, allowing the Great Houses' invasion.

Christine escaped the bottle and entered the main universe; after being dropped off on Ordifica, she visited colony worlds including Shristostophon, Gardener's World, Hai Dow Seven, Lubellin, Shatner's Climax and Ultra Caprisis. Christine eventually visited the ruins of the Homeworld, where she wrote most of her autobiography before heading towards Dellah. At the time, she was 23 years old. (PROSE: Dead Romance) Christine later sent a letter to Bernice Summerfield, where she said that she took a post at a university on the planet Vremnya. (PROSE: Twilight of the Gods)

When still in the bottle universe, Christine had recurring nightmares about being trapped in an old house, filled with shadow, which was populated and maintained by a family of dusty skeletons. Though she always tried to escape at the start, she would consistently become lost in the shadows, and by the end of the dream she would have forgotten why she wanted to leave, having become one of the family herself. She always woke up with her fingers in her mouth, checking if she still had lips. (PROSE: Dead Romance)

Joining the Faction
At some point, she joined Faction Paradox and took on the name Eliza. Little Sister Eliza was in the Eleven-Day Empire when Little Brother Porsena joined, and she explained to him that it was only blackened by soot because the original London was. (PROSE: Of the City of the Saved...)

Eliza had attained the rank of Cousin by the time that The Book of the War was published, around the War's fiftieth year. (PROSE: Faction Paradox)

Eliza once attended a meeting with four other versions of herself: Tina, Kirstine, a labcoat-wearing Christina and another version who wore glasses. During the meeting it transpired that each alternate version of Christina was holding the universe together and that CERN had been involved in hunting them down and stealing their biodata which threatened to recombine them. (PROSE: The Five Christinas)

Adventures with Justine
Eliza and Justine fought the Sontarans during their invasion of the Eleven-Day Empire. Later, when the Great Houses arrived to offer reconciliation with House Paradox, Eliza greeted Lord Ruthven on behalf of Godfather Morlock. (AUDIO: The Eleven Day Empire) Eliza and Justine survived the destruction of the Eleven-Day Empire, and they planned to save the surviving members of the Faction from Lolita. (AUDIO: The Shadow Play) Eliza broke Justine out of the Great Houses' prison planet with the help of criminals and newly freed members of Faction Paradox. (AUDIO: A Labyrinth of Histories)

Horus and death
To prevent Sutekh from gaining control of the Osirian Court, and for lack of a better option, Eliza offered herself up to Anubis to become a vessel for the salvaged biodata of the dead Osiris. Lolita added a drop of her own biodata to the mixture, (AUDIO: Ozymandias) hoping to take over the resurrected Osiris from the inside and control him, intending to use him as a puppet ruler. (AUDIO: Words from Nine Divinities) The process of Osiris taking over Eliza was gradual, with them being stuck in a merged identity with a gradually shifting balance — first Eliza gaining access to Osiris's knowledge and feelings, then becoming an entity who thought of himself as Osiris but still had remnants of Eliza's demeanour and opinions. Recognising that this new being was not quite their former king, the Osirians named the merged entity Horus, a name which, in their tongue, signified the idea of being "between two spheres". (AUDIO: Words from Nine Divinities, The Judgment of Sutekh)

Eventually Sutekh proposed a fight to the death with Horus to settle the claim to the throne. Osiris allowed Sutekh to kill him, setting up a time travel trap that ended with both Sutekh and Lolita defeated. To achieve this, Osiris released his hold from "Horus", allowing Eliza to once more be herself in her final moments, and therefore mortal. After saying goodbye to Justine, Eliza walked to her death at the Temple of Geb, posing as Horus and goading Sutekh into permanently killing her; she knew that this was unavoidable, having already witnessed the consequences of this event. (AUDIO: The Judgment of Sutekh)

Legacy
When inducting his earlier self into Faction Paradox, Richard Francis Burton made himself swear by "Horus, the reborn child from whose sacrifice our Faction owes its own rebirth". (PROSE: Head of State) Eliza was represented by the character Kishijoten in Faction Hollywood's film Mujun: The Ghost Kingdom. (PROSE: The Book of the War)

Physical appearance
The girl whose memories were imprinted in Christine had blonde hair.

However, the cloned, "definitive" Christine Summerfield had dark eyes and hair, and was slightly shorter than the blonde girl. When she saw her reflection shortly after being created, she had "bad skin" and cheeks that looked "much too narrow" for her head. She described herself as "skinny" and "badly dressed". When she saw her reflection in the following days, she noted that she was pale and had acne. (PROSE: Dead Romance)

Behind the scenes
Upon her introduction in Dead Romance Christine had the distinction of being the first female Cwej, however, 21 years later Barnyard of the Cyberons introduced Christina Cwej who was canonically intended to be the first female Cwej.
