Ascella Sagittarii Character in Mythrite | World Anvil

Ascella Sagittarii

Captain Ascella Sagittarii

Ascella is half Chondathan human, half high moon elf. She decided to become a mercenary at the age of 16. Many underestimated her, a young girl at the time, at first glance, but were quickly shut up after seeing her abilities. She worked various jobs until she was 24, when she heard about Mythrite and the chance at wealth that could be found there. She ventured there and quickly proved herself worthy of becoming a caravan guard captain. She is a harsh leader, and expects nothing less than greatness and immense skill from her soldiers. She earns good pay with this position, but somehow still lives as though she is in poverty. Many of those in her guard speculate about what she does with the money, some guessing that she gambles it all away, others saying that she has some large debt that she must pay off. Only she knows the truth, and perhaps Ayla, but the latter rarely speaks to her fellow guards and ignores any such questions that they pose to her.

History

Ascella met Biggs relatively early on in his career here in Mythrite. As he began sitting a lot in the booth she favored. One day getting sick of it, she marched over and sat herself down at the same booth sitting across the table from him. He smiled and continued on his work as she ordered her drink, after some time they began talking and she opened up to him. Eventually challenging him to an arm wrestling contest, she beat him and so the next day he sat on the opposite side of the room. She drank extra hard that day. The next day he returned to the booth and asked if anyone was sitting there, not waiting for an answer. Since then they're seen at that same booth every day.

Nicknames & Petnames

A Bigg jerk /// Ass-ella, as well as a few other pun related curses.

Relationship Reasoning

Even though they spend a lot of time drinking together, Biggs and Ascella from an outside perspective don't seem to be that close. As they are constantly ragging on each other and criticizing the other. The truth is they both hold each other in deep respect and coming from similar ex-mercenary backgrounds have a lot in common. They're really good friends, even if they don't show it.

History

As respective captains of the town and caravan guards, Galdar and Ascella are naturally at odds. Ascella sees the town guard as a cushy job for those who want all the glory, without any actual work. She also is distrustful of their methods and believes them to be involved in shady dealings. Ascella dislikes Galdar especially, as she has heard about the misdeeds committed by members of Galdar's own guard, and doesn't believe his claims that he was uninvolved. She also sees him as arrogant, and believes that his outward display of humbleness and virtue is all an act to cover up devious activities. Galdar doesn't like the suspicions that Ascella raises against him, nor the fact that she openly opposes his political rise.

History

After Galdar Rougash turned down Keiran from the town guard, Ascella accepted him as a member of her caravan guard. She became a mercenary at the age of 16, and Keiran reminds her of herself from that time and how everyone looked down on her as well. She took Keiran in as his mentor, and is tough on him in order to train him to be just as strong as the rest of her guards.
