Asar is an akh: an effective spirit that can mess with and subsequently influence the world of the living. He generally serves Osiris alongside his ancestors and descendants, but he can also be found under the service of other Egyptian gods. For the most part, he acts as an on-call assistant.

He takes on a similar position in the overworld. By distributing luck amongst a select few individuals, he transforms them into tycoons and "assists" in their decision-making from the shadows with the threat of destroying their success. Every year Asar receives a portion of their earnings, which he then uses to fund various archeological and anthropological projects aimed at preserving the legacy of Ancient Egypt.


ABOUT

Height 5'7"

Body Type Mesomorph

Weight 160 lbs

Body Shape Inverted Triangle


Voice Keston John
Asar speaks with a honeyed voice with a slight, unidentifiable accent. He likes to use large words and talks formally.
Handwriting Right-Handed
His penmanship is rather scribbly, and, when combined with the fact he often writes in cursive, hard to read.

Asar appears as a sophisticated young man in his 20's, with almond-shaped brown eyes and reddish-brown skin. When he smiles, dimples appear around the corners of his mouth. His body is hairless, save for the neck up due to hygiene practices, and it is athletic and toned. Arrow scars are littered throughout his upper shoulders and arms, but the most prominent lesion is a shallow, jagged slash from his right shoulder down to his abdomen.

He goes to great lengths to touch up his appearance and sees no shame in indulging in makeup. A man of exquisite tastes, he will only mimic clothes that are of the utmost quality or from an esteemed brand.


Past

Like most people at the time, Asar had a shaved head and kohl-lined eyes. The headdress he wore changed depending on the task or event at hand, but he usually had on the nemes crown with a false beard. A knee-length kilt made of a fine piece of linen was wrapped around his lower body and was sometimes accompanied by a pair of intricate sandals. A broad necklace adorned his neck while gold and lapis lazuli bands were clasped on his forearms and wrists. If it was chilly outside, a cloak or wrap would be worn on top of the outfit.


Present

Nowadays, one can almost mistake him for a businessman. Either a thick mop of curly black hair or dreads sit atop his head, and he even sports a small goatee: a "modern" stand-in for the false beard he's used to wearing. However, he keeps his eyeliner as a token of his past. He is usually found in a pink suit with an embroidered undershirt that resembles a kaftan and a wedding ring on his left hand. One thing to note is that whatever he has on his person is a product of his shape-shifting abilities: he cannot physically take anything off. The best he can do is make an item "disappear" from his body.

He doesn't always appear human when he wants to be seen though and can take on the appearance of other creatures as well.


Design Notes
  • Can be drawn with either dreads or a small afro
  • He has dimples when smiling
  • His eyes are lined with kohl: those are not his eyelashes
  • Can also be drawn in any type of suit!

APPEARANCE

Positive Traits

Bold Shrewd Diligent Ambitious Adaptable Confident Level-Headed
Neutral Traits

Cheeky Curious Patient Stubborn Nostalgic Mischievous Image-Conscious
Negative Traits

Proud Secretive Suspicious Calculating Unforgiving Opportunistic Double-Dealing

Goals
To find his mother again and to finally apologize to her for what he had done in life.
Fears
Being forgotten, since it puts him in a coma-like state. He is also afraid of pure darkness and Apep.

Asar appears to be charming and sociable; despite exuding an aura of regalia and refinement, he's always seen with a smile on his face and enjoys conversing with others if given the opportunity. However, he is also highly suspicious of people he does not know well, and his guard is always up around others despite his relaxed appearance. He is hesitant in revealing too much about himself, and, as such, reading him has proven to be difficult.

In life he loved approval, craved it even, to the point where he did anything and everything possible to earn the praise of his subjects, even if it meant hurting his loved ones in the process. Although guilt has eroded some of his praise-hungry tendencies, he is still opportunistic and ambitious to the core. Besides this, he is also a chameleon-figure: someone who has total control over the personas or different personalities they project to the people around them. This ability is used to protect himself from criticism, hate, and harsh judgment, and he often mulls over a single conversation to see how it can be manipulated into what he wants or needs.

His unforgiving side may surface if someone, or something, manages to push him over the edge. Asar takes the phrase "resent and remember" to heart and seldom lets go of the wrongdoings others have done unto him, and by extension, his country. This also applies to himself, and he tends to be painfully aware of his past mistakes much to his own chagrin.

A naturally mischievous person, he enjoys indulging in witty banter, dad jokes wordplay and, above all, trickery. This can range from simple tricks to seemingly impossible feats, and he delights in his audience's baffled expressions. If presented with something that is beyond his understanding, Asar will devote himself to studying it. New people, new knowledge, new trinkets — basically anything he hasn't seen before is worth his attention, and he spends a good amount of time reveling in the unfamiliarity.


Likes
  • Children: It's the only instance where he will show honest warmth towards strangers. He couldn't have children when he was alive despite wanting to, so he tends to dote on those he comes across
  • Hot Spots: Whether it's the local bar or tourist traps, you'll usually find him there when he's visiting earth. In fact, people watching is one of his favorite hobbies
  • Lotus-Infused Wine: Usually consumed to help him relax. He enjoys the taste but limits himself to one glass a day
  • Modern Technology: One of his topics of interest. He enjoys marveling at how far humanity has progressed and will sometimes take things apart to see how it works
  • Physical Activity: Mainly hunting and boxing - he enjoys visting different hells and practicing on the sinners there
Dislikes
  • "Aliens Built the Pyramids": Just don't
  • Darkness: It reminds him of his own mortality, that he could still die even after death. Although he can tolerate being in the dark if his sight isn't impaired, he'll flee the area the moment it becomes pitch black
  • Desecration of the Dead: This is the quickest way to get cursed for eternity. Since his existence is heavily dependent on what happens to him post mortem, he feels a sense of duty in protecting other dead folk
  • Immoderation: It's a masculinity thing. He views people who practice this as 'uncivilized' and more akin to animals than human
  • Intrusive People: Even though he himself enjoys getting into other people's business, he can't tolerate others doing the same to him

PERSONALITY

Skills

As an akh, his strength is directly tied to the commemoration of his name and the upkeep of his tomb: the better the two are taken care of, the more powerful he becomes. Spirits of his kind are gifted with the usual powers attributed to ghosts, but there are a few bonus elements.

In addition, there are two classes of akh: those that are divine (i.e. deified after death) and those that are not. The main difference between them is an affinity for magic, particularly that of Osiris's, that can be channeled through weaponry or the user's body. This ability draws energy from the person's Ka (life energy) and can be replenished daily through the practice of eating and drinking.

A God's Favor

His most unique ability is that of luck manipulation through blessings and curses. This can demonstrate itself in multiple ways, from touch and incantations to even physical manifestations in the form of animals or intricate amulets. However, he is very reluctant when it comes to using this ability and thus rarely puts it to practice; no one gets anything unless he believes it'll benefit him in some way. In addition, this ability can be used on anyone but himself.

Ka Extraction

This goes hand-in-hand with the fact that he needs sustenance in order to keep his soul strong. By using this, he can eat the Ka of foods and even gain nourishment from texts or images that portray a meal. When this ability is in effect, a clone will be produced from the object he's handling. It can be applied to any object, but it does not affect living organisms.

He can also take his own Ka and infuse objects with it, namely shabti. There is technically no limit to how many he can create in total, but there is a limit on how much he can create at a time. Since each figurine has a sliver of his life-force, overexerting this power will cause him to slowly fade away until he can replenish his energy. Each shabti has a pre-determined job upon creation and they are unable to deviate from the task they were made for. When activated, they look and feel human but they cannot speak.

Gate to the Underworld

This ability is limited to only Ka doors: direct gateways to and from the Duat. In order to create one, he has to have already visited the area before carving, building or drawing the door on a relatively flat surface. Messing with the hieroglyphs inscribed is a sure-fire way to render the portal useless.

Shapeshifting

The most self-explanatory, he can take on the characteristics of anything for his own enjoyment or for the purpose of visiting earth. He mainly uses this to modify his appearance so that he can blend in with the living, but there are instances where he'll transform into a gruesome shadowy figure for the purpose of deterring modern tomb robbers.

RELATIONSHIPS

Trivia
  • His full name is "Horus, strong willed, champion of Ma'at, protector of Egypt for the Two Ladies, he who inspires great fear, who seeks benefits for the one who bore him, the dual king, holy is the soul of Re, the son of Re, Neferma'at"
  • He goes by just Asar in the over-world and even has a fake backstory planned. If asked, he'll say he's from a small village steeped in old traditions and that the inhabitants have since died out due to the youth leaving for better work. The settlement would be called Set Adjah, which literally translates to "False Place" in Ancient Egyptian
  • His body temperature tends to be unstable when in the land of the living; like a corpse, it mimics his surroundings
  • He's capable of holding lengthy conversations in both Egyptian Arabic and Ancient Egyptian, and he's currently teaching himself Egyptian Sign Language (ESL) and English. His English is much stronger than his ESL but it isn't without its faults: he is fluent but has trouble reading and writing
  • He gestures when he talks but only with his right hand, never the left. The latter is usually reserved for handling things he considers "unclean"
  • When walking, he carries himself with dignity: head held up high, straight posture, and long strides with his hands either clasped firmly behind his back or by his sides
  • Very demonstrative with those he's romantically interested in: his love language is receiving words of affirmation, but he enjoys giving gifts to those he loves
  • In addition, he has a high preference for older women or just older individuals in general
  • He's both polygamous and polyamorous!
  • Although rare, when angered he'll start to cry
  • He smells fragrant, like a freshly stuffed mummy. Specifically, he smells of myrrh and lavender with a hint of cinnamon
  • In the past, he was considered quite tall for his time period. Now, he's a bit salty over the fact that he is considered average height, or, even worse, short
