Sieglinde Bergfalks

“Siggie” is a self-styled artist of marginal talent whose main source of income is depleting the funds of whichever man or woman she happens to be with at the time. She is an expert in spotting successful but insecure people, dazzling them, and then abruptly withdrawing before returning again. This creates an intense need on the part of her prey to try to keep her satisfied all the time, for fear she will abandon them again. Her art sales are not a clever front—she actually believes she’s a genius—but it’s ultimately the savings of her victims that keeps her afloat. She must understand this; at any given time she is actively flirting with other prospects in order to have options should the coffers empty.
