{ ❝ She will blaze through you like a gypsy wildfire. Igniting your soul and dancing in its flames. And when she is gone, the smell of her smoke will be the only thing left to soothe you ❞ } -- Nicole Lyons ▬▬▬▬▬ Name: Asteria (meaning -- fallen star) Age: Seventeen Gender: Female Sexuality: Bisexual Height: 14.05'' Weight: Roughly 10 lbs Build: Sharp-gazed, slender, and long-limbed, she is built for speed rather than battle; much to her chagrin. This doesn’t mean she won’t try to fight nor that she is weak. Long wispy, curled fur frames her neck, chest, and tail giving her an elegant look. Territory: Region Five ▬▬▬▬▬ Family: Mother: Dakota Father: Deceased Uncle: Marion Aunt: Sisomi Cousins: Columbia, Jack, Jazz, Ross, Roy, and Cassie Siblings: Asrin, Elowyn, Cardan, Balkien, Daine, and Eldred ▬▬▬▬▬ Voice: Emma Watson Theme Song: TBD ▬▬▬▬▬ Personality: Mature/Poised: With the death of her beloved and the betrayal of one of her closest friends, Asteria was forced to mature quite early. And in the face of her own disgrace, her inability to protect the one thing she considered her own, she felt the need to hide behind a wall of duties, to mask herself from those who she once considered dear. Guarded/Fiery: She is a woman of few personal words, keeping herself guarded and never revealing much about her thoughts or own desires. An act that she believes is necessary to keep her moving forward. A good actor, Asteria constantly puts up a facade of the perfect female, charming and graceful. But, in reality, she can be fiery, quick-tempered, and ruthless. Her wild charm has been stated to be likable, although she attempts to keep this side hidden. Ambitious: Region Five’s culture not only demanded it, but the cultured, pedigreed creatures pushed Asteria to seize every opportunity to prove she wasn’t just another marriage candidate among the faction. In the wake of losing her lover, this drive has only increased tenfold. She fears being engaged to another, but knows with the passage of time -- it is inevitable. Unforgiving: After her father fled Region Five, Asteria has felt nothing, but an overwhelming need to chase him down and demand he pay for his crimes. He left her to face the consequence of his actions alone -- the coward. Altruistic: Courageous and righteous she has finds no qualms in standing up for what she feels goes against her beliefs. Her status often puts her at odds with the ranking system of Region Five. The life of squalor is not one Asteria wishes upon anyone, yet she faces it every day. Although she comes off cold to those who know little of her, Asteria cares deeply for those of Insweell and would sacrifice anything for the good of her family. The cruelty of a few creatures won’t bar Asteria from trying to help the many unless they’ve wronged her loved ones. Scholarly/Clever: From the time she could speak, Asteria's mother was intent that this ball of fluff would be studious. And as such forced this young lady to study even though she would rather be outside playing with the other pups. But, as she's grown she's learned that information is a valuable commodity to possess. Often using her cleverness to maneuver her way through court politics or to get herself out of trouble. Most of the time, she'll go out into the field to observe and analyze all she can. Sometimes because of duty and other times because of her limitless curiosity. Willful: When Asteria gets an idea in her head it takes a lot to change her mind. She can be stubborn to a fault if she is stonewalled and might act out of pure pigheadedness. Resentful: Growing up in Five has been a challenge for Asteria. A relative to the mayor marks her as high blood, yet it is her father's blood that stains her lineage. Asteria has heard her share of mocking and snide remarks. She has a bit of resentment towards those who only see her as a half-blood or a way to raise their status. She will show all of Five her worth and that she is not just a "half-blood." Dutiful/Devoted: Asteria holds her family high above all others and will put herself in the line of fire for those she cares about in order to keep them safe. She is a perfectionist, passionate in whatever work she’s involved in often to the point that leads her to forget to take the time to live and just breathe for a moment. Anxious: Deep down she has a lot of self-doubt in regards to her status and duties to Five. She has a habit of often focusing on what she could have done better and not on what she's actually accomplished. ▬▬▬▬▬ Credits: Art: Character: Idea: Someone on DA ▬▬▬▬▬
