Astrape

An ancient being

Astrape Titanium (a.k.a. White Lightning)

Resting in the forest, surrounded by spirit-like figures lies Astrape (Ἀστρᾰπή, Lightning). As you get closer you feel uneasy... Although in front of you is the barely moving pile of wood, the air around you is filled with crackling energy. Not only that, but figures are floating around you, some running fearfully, some whispering tantalizingly. Some characters look like Astrapae, But there, just floating on the spot, hangs an image of you in the air. And it's slowly coming towards you. When you're just inches apart, you hear two parallel voices in your head, "What do you want here, stranger?"
  Astrapae is a Titan . He/she got imprisoned with multiple Chaining vines, as a punishment for her past actions. Now he is semi-conscious, speaking to outsiders only if they walk in his Forrest. And even then, only through her conjured spirits. The Chaining vines, which are tying the titan down, are acting as a prison in which she slumbers. The strange ghostly figures that you can see in the local forest are the titan's memories, wishes, and dreams.   The titan has both a masculine and a feminine soul within her, so, as she speaks, his voice rings in a beautiful duet.

Nature

A powerful being, with the soul of a ruler and that of a powerful druid. But even before that, she was a force of nature. With the New Form, Astrape was given the power to control the plants around her. And since his number of followers is small, she can always take good care of the few who decide to follow her.

Personal history

Origin

  Astrape was once a rain cloud controlled by spells. For years it flew over fields to irrigate them. But one day, the druid who created it wanted to conduct experiments with lightning energy. So he transformed Astrape into a thundercloud with a magic ritual. But something went wrong with this transformation: the soul of the druid was drawn into the cloud. Five and a half lonely months later, the thundercloud was found in the druid's tree by farmers who were looking for help. And from them, the fusion of the druid and the rain cloud was let out.

The murder

  Astrape is currently tied to a place. This is a punishment for a murder committed by The Thundercloud: Since the cloud had become one with the druid, and the druid had magic that allowed it to communicate with other individuals, the cloud could hold conversations. And since the druid was a respected member of the Royal Council of the Exokarian Kingdom Astrape attended meetings with the king. And it was during one of these meetings that the fateful event occurred. Due to the hot temper of the cloud, and the general bad mood, the thundercloud in all rage let down a bolt of lightning. And unfortunately, this lightning struck the king, who fell to the ground dead in a split second. Only what was left of the king was not much: the lightning caused the king's body to crumble into ashes. And the king's soul was absorbed by the cloud.
 

The punishment

  As punishment for this atrocious act, the cloud was temporarily banished to a mage, only temporarily, because it is difficult to keep a cloud with the power of an archdruid imprisoned permanently. Through several rituals, and with the help of Sylnir , the mage then transformed Astrape into the being that now lies bound by Chaining Vines. The original consciousness of the cloud was destroyed, and the soul of the king was united with the soul of the druid.
