PERSONALITY



Born into comfort and raised with love, Asteria is largely a contented wolf, and is usually at peace among the Fellfangir. She adores her family and her home. Raised under the belief that the Skuld is her family, she has never had any reason to believe any different, and treats every member of the pack as if they were her own blood relative. She is kind and attentive, and takes great care to spend time with those she cares for, often looking to them for guidance as she ages. Luckily for her, there are a great many honourable wolves in Fellfang to look up to and to learn from, not least of them being her own parents, the Jarl and Lady of Fellfang.

Down-to-earth and grounded, Asteria has no airs and graces. She is humble, and does not value her own life above that of any other. She does not feel any sense of entitlement due to her birthright, nor does she feel any ambition or desire to lead. More than anything she is happy to simply be around others, drawing from their positive energy. She is hugely emphatic - she is absolutely terrible at reading others, but she has an innate sixth sense and feels the emotions of those around her deeply and powerfully. It can hurt her, at times, because seeing others in grief or turmoil can throw her into the same dark place and bring her great pain. As a result, she is always quick to help others and spread light in the darkness.

Free spirited, and at times a little reckless, Asteria certainly has a wildness in her. She hates to be bound by rules and it lends a certain rebelliousness to her, particularly as a young adult. She likes to explore, wandering through Fellfang's various terrains and leaving no leaf nor rock un-turned. There is a definate wanderlust in her heart, a desire to see more of the world, but she would hate to leave her home and family behind and so contents herself with exploring every nook and cranny within their lands. When she bores of the earth, she turns her heard to the sky and explores there instead - inspecting every glimmer and every star with a hunger for knowledge. The constellations of stars in particular are fascinating to her.

Asteria is an open book who wears her heart on her sleeve. She is almost never able to hide her emotions and as yet, has never had any need to. Within the safety of her home she is trusting, accepting her fellow Fellfangir without question, even if they are new to the Skuld. She is honest to a fault to all among their number and cannot fathom the possibility of hiding the truth from your own family. Her warm and trusting nature does not extend to outsiders. Although she is not aggressive, she believes that a wolf must first accept Fellfang and it's culture before they can gain her trust and favour.

As she grows older, Asteria proves to be extremely spiritual. Her interest in the night sky will expand into a belief that the position of the moon has a great effect on those who bathe in it's light, and that the changing of constellations bears great weight on the mortal world. She believes that she can feel the energy of other wolves, that they come to her as warm or cold, soft or strong, and will become immediately suspicious of a wolf whom she feels has a peculiar energy. She is well aware of the need for balance but she is wary of dark energies, instilled with a need to protect her family and the contentment they bring her. 

In young adulthood, only one shred of doubt will invade Asteria's picture perfect world. They begin small at first, but over time her sleeping moments will be plagued by strange and almost prophetic dreams. They do not come to her often but when they do happen, they are often violent and dark, depicting the destruction of all which she holds dear and helped along by manifestations of Fellfang's deities. She is largely tight lipped about these dreams, only confiding in her mother and father about them, feeling they are the only ones well equipped to do something with the information Unknown to Asteria, it is presumed that these dreams are some peculiar manifestation of the Curse of Arn, the violent curse that plagues Fellfang's royal bloodline.





TRIVIA



Asteria falls over things, onto things, off things, around things... she's very clumsy and a little bit silly.





PRE-GROUP HISTORY



Born to the Jarl and Lady of Fellfang, Asteria and her siblings were concieved during a time of great darkness and trickery, in which Fellfang had returned to it's bloody roots and taken up the ancient practises that Fable had abolished. Only with the discovery that "Valda" had kept him under her control by convincing him to take pshycoactive substances was the Skuld returned to a sense of normality. And so, the puppies were born, entirely unaware of what events had led up to their creation.
