Group: The Magoi
Physique: Ast is a tall girl of 173cm in height. She was thin and have ashen skin. The imposing height of her adds weigh to her words. Her slenders are smooth like silk, with occasional marks of ink along the wrist.
Weight ~ 53kg
Abilities: Paperwork: Ast is good at doing paperwork. Her reports are often clear and concise.
Intrigue: She has a good listening ear to current affairs. What that is less known from her is that she is good in dealing against plots, and things like disguise and forging letters are second nature to her. She doesn't let people know about this, due to her not wanting to be involved in what she calls 'petty affairs'
Not actually a spell of the books, and more from the way she uses magic. She is able to forge the casting style of other magicians, but she felt that its not useful because its more of a trick to just downplay her power. She can make parchment ink glow at night, comes in handy when she doesn't want to let people know that she's awake.
The other tricks that she used on hiding a spell is by overlapping a very obvious magic over a subtle magic. The magic she wanted to hide will often be overlooked, especially to an impatient person. She had only used it when she was an Apprentice, and doubted she would use them again.
She has quite an eye for traps spun out of magic, due to her more than wary personality.
Spells: As a mage of the Magoi, Ast specialises in using Magic. Her spells are Light and Fire based. She is known to cast invisible flames. Her castings of magic is very neat.
Invisibility - By wrapping herself around the flows of light, Ast is able to turn invisible. It works best under the bright sunlight.
Invisible Flames - Ast's favourite magic, where she sends blasts of invisible flames to the opponent. The cast of magic is tedious, thus the cast time is longer for this one.
Illusions - By casting a spell on what her friends call the dances of light, Ast is able to create Illusions. Phantom Warriors, Cavalry and beasts are what she can create. Usually the darker the place, the less of what she could create. Moonlight works very well for her, and she had used lanterns in areas that are pitch black.
Due to it being constructs of light, it is able to harm the undead. She uses it usually by distracting her enemies with those illusions, then sending a few of her flames within the crowd of images.
Heavenly Flare - Bright flaming lances that makes the noon seem like the night, opposite of her Invisible Flames. To Ast, the cast of magic is very simple. By just converging light and Fire magic together with a good amount of magic, a blast of magic that travels straighter than an arrow can be churned out. Monsters can be blinded when consumed by such spell.
Pet: Valavin, Alice's favourite pet dove. She had raised it from a young age.
Experience: Ast was born in as a lady of a noble house. Her life was smooth sailing and comfortable, having a somehow easy life. From a young age, Ast was tutored by her uncle, the Head of her family. Being the most well-behaved as compared to her brothers, she was favoured by her Family Head. Until the day where the head of the noble house sucuumbed to his illness. Due to him siring no heir, Ast's father was of course the first to inherit.
But to her surprise, her name was amongst those that were written down on her uncle's will. It strained her relationship with her two older brothers, who were not in the Family Head lists of any potential inheritance. She was too young to understand why her siblings have suddenly stopped talking to her.
The inheritance was formally announced, her name in the will have been changed to her elder brother. Her father did not suspect anything, due to his own name being untouched, also her brother is the oldest amongst the three children. She did not understand the mindset of her siblings, to betray his own blood-related sister just over a few words on the parchment paper.
Deciding not to pursue on what she cursed as 'childish' under her own breath, she had announced to her parents that she will be pursuing her studies at the Magoi's Guild. Her father, the now family head, thought she was just keen in furthering her studies and was more than proud to let her go.
Joining the Magoi's Guild as an Apprentice, Ast wanted to distance herself from those nonsense affairs of her house. Her family's crest is with her, granted by her parents just in case she needs them. That is obviously not something she could throw away. But also, it was not a thing that she wants to let people find out.
Studying there was easy, especially with the upbringing of the old horse. Time and time she have grasped her theory of magic perfectly. A few times her classmates have asked her to help out with their assignments. and she have learnt of her affinity of magic to be fire and light.
Casting her first spell, the Heavenly Flare. A cast that uses both of her affinity. That magic alone had surprised both her classmates and her teachers, as much as they tried to hide them.
She had never been complacent of her talents, more often than not she had been asking her tecahers and peers on what she could improve on her Maigc.
Even in her days of an apprentice, her castings of her magic was so neat and elegant that her friends called her Illusion spell the 'Dances of Light'. Her flows and patterns of her spells is recognisable. That had made her queasy, her trails of magic has became as personal as those waxed seals on Parchments. Sooner or later someone will uncover her relation to her old family. She tried changing the pattern of the Dances of Light, so what her friends have called. A different cast, and objects disappears aroudn her. Or have appeared to, as she could still feel that shape and pattern of the Noble Insignia. That was what had her learn the Spell of Invisibility. One that is used by other affinities.
It can be easily used on the fireball skill, and it became her favourite cast.
There was an assignment by a guild professor, and i was to enchant objects. The childish games of intruge have proven useful to her. The presentation was a pen that can make the ink Glow. But there was a subtle enchantment that she made. The mark of her house was hidden away from her magic. And when the professor asked on how she could even afford such a pen, she lied to him that it was a gift from her father before enrollment. And he bought the story. There she knew that there is a trick to concealing those traces of magic.
Completeing her study once coming of age, she took on jobs that involves hunting monster, and definitely, cleansing the undead.
Motivation: Ast was keen on her study of history. As curious as once she was, she pondered on How the Magicians of the old times cast magic differently. And on how much have been lost since the times of the Divine and Chaos. Writing a book is amongst her ambitions.
~ To complete her study of Ancient magic, and to become respected not from her house's influence, but from her own merits.
Birthplace: Ast is born from a noble house in Vrondi
Personaility: Ast is the kind of person who tries to be trustworthy, but somehow finds herself in situations where she weaves words and storeies. A girl who was involved in an inheritance dispute, and sneaky acts like forging letters and disguises are second nature to her.
She appeared friendly and helpful despite what she does. And she doesn't hold any grudges over the betrayal from her siblings, only confusion. She is haughty and wants to be respected not by her house's name, but of her own accomplishments. Due to that, she hides her connections and family name when she joins the Magoi guild.
She is very cautious, and more often than not she had found herself to be aware of the situations and politics of the gild. And her spells are more based on sneaky acts of intrigue. She wanted a more honest life, and is keen on writing a book of History and Ancient Magic.
