Astrid Bane

"She is careless, irresponsible, and utterly ignorant of the teachings meant to guide her, yet somehow—somehow—she possesses a talent for destructive magic that no one should ever underestimate. Astrid Bane is a dangerous enigma, a student who shouldn’t be allowed near Archana, yet still, she holds power that defies reason."

— Profesor Menuthin

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Astrid has long, raven-black hair with slight curls, always impeccably maintained, framing her beautiful face and striking light green eyes. She possesses a slim, well-toned figure with an elegant posture, highlighted by her ample curves that draw attention effortlessly. With no physical ailments or abnormalities, her beauty is matched by her poise, making her presence both graceful and captivating.

Physical quirks

She often checks her nails to ensure they are flawless, occasionally biting them softly in a thoughtful manner without causing damage. She enjoys playing with her curls, a habit that becomes more pronounced when she’s deep in thought or trying to charm someone. Whenever a handsome male is nearby, she instinctively adjusts her posture to subtly emphasize her figure, particularly ensuring her chest appears poised and alluring.

Special abilities

Astrid, as a scholar of the Archana Academy of Syndar, is a highly skilled sorceress capable of casting a wide variety of spells. Her specialty lies in destructive magic, particularly spells that cause explosive effects. Her precise control over volatile energies makes her very dangerous, able to unleash devastating bursts of power with remarkable accuracy. Despite her focus on destruction, her broad magical training ensures she can adapt to various situations, blending intellect and arcane might.
On the second hand, she is very weak in metamorping of Archana, so she can cast very few spells until runs out of power.

Apparel & Accessories

Astrid is always dressed in elegant and carefully chosen robes or dresses, favoring styles that accentuate her figure, often paired with corsets to enhance her silhouette. Her outfits are a blend of sophistication and charm, reflecting her confidence and attention to detail. The one constant in her attire is the large antique purple amulet she wears around her neck—a mysterious relic that has been with her since infancy. She doesn’t know its origins but treasures it deeply, as it is the only clue to her life before being left at the doors of the academy as a newborn.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Astrid’s entire life has been shaped by the Archana Academy of Syndar. From a very young age, she was brought there, and the institution became her world. She doesn’t remember a time before the academy, and all her memories are filled with the rigorous training of magic and scholarship. The halls of Archana are where she learned everything — from sorcery to ancient lore, and it’s where she first forged her bond with Mellisa Silktorn. Though she has no recollection of her life before the academy, Astrid has never felt a sense of loss, finding purpose and identity within its walls.

Sexuality

Astrid embraces her sexuality with confidence and curiosity. She is heterosexual, though she has no qualms about openly admiring the well-built and handsome men she encounters. Her flirtatious nature is part of her charm, and she enjoys playful interactions, often teasing those around her. However, she is not driven by the pursuit of relationships; rather, she views her sexuality as a part of her personal freedom, an expression of confidence and self-assurance. She enjoys the attention she receives. She is selective about who she gets close to, valuing intellectual connections and trust above anything else, though she may flirt with those she finds physically attractive.
Astrid’s relationship with sex is one of exploration and enjoyment, but she never lets it overshadow her goals or the bonds she has with her closest allies, like Mellisa Silkthorn or Artur Harden . She believes in the importance of balance — where passion, personal growth, and knowledge all coexist in harmony.

Education

Astrid is exceptionally well-educated, with a particular passion for history. Her time at the Academy of Archana provided her with a vast knowledge of ancient lore, magical history, and the arcane arts. She excels in both theoretical studies and practical magic, with a deep fascination for uncovering the past and understanding the secrets of old civilizations. Her intellect and scholarly dedication make her a respected figure among her peers, especially when it comes to historical research and magical theory.

Intellectual Characteristics

Astrid is highly intelligent, with a sharp mind for history and magic.

Morality & Philosophy

"Endless study and unyielding focus aren’t the true joys of life. Life is about savoring the moments, indulging in laughter, flirting, and embracing the pleasures of the world. Magic and knowledge are important, yes, but they should never overshadow the thrill of living. Explore, experience, and enjoy—because in those fleeting moments, you’ll find the real magic."

— Astrid Bane

Taboos

Dirty People: Astrid cannot stand people who are unclean or unkempt. She finds it deeply repulsive and will avoid any situation where she might be forced to interact with someone who disregards personal hygiene.
Unrefined and Gross Behavior: She despises coarse, vulgar behavior, especially anything that reminds her of crude peasant manners. Astrid expects people to carry themselves with a sense of dignity and refinement, and she will not tolerate any ungracious or rude actions.
Rape: Astrid has an unyielding abhorrence of rape or any form of abuse. The violation of a person’s autonomy is something she cannot forgive, and it drives her to anger and disgust.
Betrayal of Trust: She views betrayal of trust as an unforgivable act, especially by those close to her. Once trust is broken, it is nearly impossible for her to look at the person the same way again.
Disrespect Toward Women: As someone who values her own strength and independence, Astrid has a deep contempt for those who disrespect or belittle women. She will not stand by while others undermine or objectify them.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

Astrid's desires and priorities are simple yet deeply personal. She has little overarching motivation or grand ambition, content to live in the moment, caring most about her close bond with her best friend, Mellisa Silktorn, and indulging her appreciation for handsome men. However, beneath her carefree exterior lies a quiet dream of one day building a family and having children, a vision of stability and love that she before never know.

Savvies & Ineptitudes

Savvies

Astrid has an unmatched intellect for studying ancient texts, languages, and historical arcane lore.

While her magical prowess is limited, she excels in casting destructive spells, particularly those that cause explosions.

She can easily charm or manipulate others with her wit and beauty, often getting what she wants through sheer charisma.

Ineptitudes

Despite being a talented sorceress, her range of spells is narrow, and she struggles with more complex or subtle forms of magic.

She is easily distracted and tends to lose focus, which sometimes causes her to overlook crucial details or misinterpret situations.

Astrid often acts impulsively and without thought, leading to careless mistakes, especially when distracted by things she finds unimportant.

Virtues & Personality perks

Astrid's vices and flaws are rooted in her self-indulgence and vanity, as she often prioritizes her appearance and pleasures over responsibilities. She can be impulsive and careless, making decisions without fully considering the consequences, and her arrogance sometimes leads her to dismiss others' opinions. She has little respect for authority, often challenging those in charge, and avoids responsibility when it feels burdensome. These traits, while adding to her charm and confidence, also reveal her more flawed, reckless side.

Hygiene

Astrid is exceptionally particular about cleanliness and hygiene. She detests dirt and is always impeccably groomed, ensuring her hair, nails, and clothes are pristine. She avoids situations that might cause her to get dirty and goes to great lengths to maintain her appearance. For Astrid, cleanliness isn’t just about looking good; it’s a matter of personal pride, and she cannot stand the feeling of being unkempt or disheveled.

Astrid Bane

The only clue to her past is the large, antique purple amulet she wears around her neck, though she knows little about its significance. Raised within the academy, her past before her arrival remains unknown, leaving her with a deep curiosity about where she truly came from and why she was abandoned. This unknown history lingers in the back of her mind, a puzzle she has yet to solve.
