Asenath is the bastard child of a goddess and a human. The goddess represents war, hunting, fertility, and the annual flooding of the Nile. As such, Asenath has a propensity for hunting and an ability to control water, although it is severely underdeveloped as a result of being half human. She has a deep respect for nature, and rarely hunts, preferring to forage for food and spend time with the creatures around her.
Nobody really knows why Asenath took the form of an antelope when she was born. Perhaps it is an extension of her mother, typically portrayed with antelope horns.
Shortly after she was born, Asenath's right eye was taken as a sacrifice to prevent her parents from being punished for having an illegitimate child. She's extremely agile due to being an antelope and her powers, though underdeveloped, are still significant, so taking her eye was seen as an acceptable sacrifice.
