She loves many things, but she often doesn't remember she likes them until someone brings up a certain topic. She's alright with that as it allows her to focus on living life "without distractions".

Personality

Sasha is a stoic, intelligent woman with the profound ability to read a person's emotions from just one glance. She rarely ever appears to show any outward emotions. She has struggled with this on occasion because she can feel intense emotions but she can't express them properly. However, she sees it as an advantage because she can stay hidden more easily. She likes to keep many aspects of herself hidden, such as her passions, her secrets, and the awful dread that creeps up every chance it gets. She forever wonders: "Will someone I love be taken from me?"

The answer has never been set in stone. She prefers to focus on the present, but she calls even herself a hypocrite because her mind always seems to drift into the future or into the past. She always snaps herself back into the present moment when she feels that way. Nobody ever knows how she truly feels, not even her husband. She doesn't wish for her suffering to become a burden on anyone else.

Life

Her life has never been an easy one, even if it seems that way to others. The house she and Artemis are living in now was paid for entirely by her at first before she ever met him. She was always working and she never got a chance to even take her true aspirations into consideration which caused a lot of self-esteem problems in the long run. Being married to Artemis has been both amazing and awful because they love eachother dearly, but Sasha can't seem to let herself relax. She chose to let Artemis take care of finances so she could stay home and keep the house tidy for him when he comes home, but her own choice makes her feel like she isn't worth anything more. She keeps this feeling to herself.

She finds peace when she visits the ocean. Sometimes, while Artemis is away at work, she'll spend hours soaring above the water. She had always felt happier surrounded by water and thus was able to manipulate the element with her two hands, bearing the ability to create streams of water through the air and freeze them if she wanted to. Releasing her bottled-up emotions through using her magic has helped her be able to keep her composure for so long.

Backstory

When Sasha was a small child, she never really seemed to grasp the concept of danger. She grew up in a pack which wasn't anything like modern society and she figured she would always be safe with her family and packmates. She first felt fear when the Death Pack committed genocide on her own pack, and she watched as everyone around her were brutally slaughtered. She escaped with her older sister by sheer luck and they found peace for a little while but that didn't last long after they got caught up in a cliffside fight with four bad guys. Rose attempted to protect Sasha from them, but Rose was still young to defend herself and ended up getting flung off the cliff. Sasha was sent on her way with a fierce warning from the group and she had no choice but to run away. She ran far away and she never really comprehended what happened until she met Louise who took her in as her own. Sasha constantly felt a terrible mixture of emotions for pretty much her entire childhood until she moved on as an adult.

The memories still haunt her to this day and she will never understand why the gods gave her such a tragic fate. Everyone she has met in the past has left her. Her family, her friends, her adoptive mother. Some leave on their own free will and others are taken by the haunting hands of death. She'll never forgive herself for being the cursed and seemingly unlovable person that shouldn't have existed, because maybe if she hadn't been born her loved ones might've had a chance at life. That's how she feels, anyways. But one thing for sure is that Sasha is indeed cursed; her soul has been from the very start.

• She has claws as sharp and painful as a hot knife. This physical trait has been a major setback and is unknowingly a part of her curse.
• Sasha deals with complex PTSD and many of her relationships tend to fall apart because of it.
• She doesn't express emotion in a way people typically do. If she feels happy, she doesn't show it. She usually always has a melancholic look on her face regardless of how she feels. Her tail and ears are a dead giveaway when it comes to reading her emotions.
• She dislikes it when people focus too much on ideals instead of reality.
• A secret aspiration of hers was to become a pilot or an astronaunt. She has a few clay figures she had made of planes and Artemis gave her his own sculpture of one as a present. It has remained her favorite posession ever since, and she still holds on to that dream because of it even though she feels she'll never achieve it.
