Ashe

"Quote"

Ashe isn’t afraid to speak her mind, often not knowing if it’s embarrassing for others or not. Though she will keep silent if it’s to stop trouble. She’s also pretty closed off, even towards Rhen.

Conversations with her are rather dry; Ashe usually answers with one or two words unless there’s more necessary things to say. Her social skills are very poor, and doesn’t understand that what she says can come off as dry or embarrassing for the other person. She does get annoyed by Kami’s flirting from time to time, but she has never snapped at her nor rejected her. Though overtime, Kami has toned down a lot, and the two have much more casual conversations now- well, whatever conversations anyone can have with Ashe- instead of Kami just flirting with her all the time. Eventually Ashe did grow to like her and they ended up together.

Ashe trades and/or sells trinkets she finds on her adventures as a way to earn money. She will often help Rhen and Azher with finances since the village they live in is rather small, so they don’t make as much as they would like.

ABILITY:

She has the ability to create and manipulate fire.

Ashe’s fighting style consists with a lot of spins, twists, and turns.

Ashe had a loving mother while growing up in Killious Kingdom, though unfortunately not as loving of a father. Ashe’s father was their kingdom‘s current leader, so she was destined to take over one day. Ashe is very well known among the other rogues, being their princess and all, though she never really made friends with any of the kids her age since they were all really savage. She is well-liked amongst them though, and many of them had a crush on her or looked up to her.

Ashe, like all the other kids with their parents in the kingdom, was trained by her father to fight and become savage, though it got brutal at times, and she ended up not liking the idea of fighting compared to the soft nature of her mother. This caused her fighting skills to decline, angering her father. Ashe and her mother feared him too much to report him, so they kept their mouths shut. Besides, they weren’t allowed to leave the kingdom.

Ashe met Glacile (Ice at the time) as kids while she was sneaking outside the kingdom one day to explore the edge of their neighbor Skanti Town, and the two became best friends almost immediately. She never told Ice about her family or her father, or even where she really lived, in fear of losing her only friend. Luckily Ice was never suspicious of her or where she came from. After their meeting, Ashe snuck outside of the kingdom more often to play with hom.

One day Ashe’s mother revealed to her that she was going to be a big sister as she has adopted a helpless fox pup of Rhen. His mother died when he was barely opening his eyes, and Ashe’s mother decided to take him in since he had no one else, and his mother was a very close family friend of hers. Ashe was ecstatic about this and immediately went to break the news to Ice.

Not long after Rhen was brought into the family, Ashe’s father ended up killing her mother after an argument about him. Ashe was in shock, and took Rhen and managed to escape the kingdom when she was only 8. She sought out Ice for help since she was still too young to fend for herself and her brother. Ice let her and Rhen stay in his beaten up yet cozy treehouse that he built himself. Ashe hasn’t heard from her birthplace since, and hasn’t been keeping up with any news.

Years later, Ice left his home at 15 to stay with Ashe permanently, and the two got together for a short time. One day Ashe decided to break up with him due to him liking to talk a lot about his combat practices, which upset Ashe as she imagined Ice ending up “as cold as her father”. Ashe developed trust issues towards Ice despite still loving him, and, instead of communicating, decided to lie to him by saying she didn’t have the same feelings for him as she did before. Ice was understanding, and continued to remain friends with Ashe and help take care of Rhen, oblivious to Ashe’s true feelings.

Ashe and Cascade were somewhat friends as well, meeting just after Ashe’s break up with Ice. However, Cascade would constantly shower Ashe with affection and be extremely possessive of her the moment they met, which made Ashe uncomfortable, since they just met, and tried to avoid her. Ashe eventually rejected her after a few weeks, causing Cascade to be so surprised she simply left without saying a word. Ashe couldn’t bare to see Ice everyday, and decided to take Rhen to leave him and Skanti Town one morning without telling him. Ashe was already preparing to leave Ice the day she rejected Cascade, and left her other friend with the rejection.

The siblings ended up moving to the small village of Leaflet Village. Although she doesn’t mean to, Ashe grew to be more distant to people, even Rhen. She can even come off as emotionless. Ashe was eventually okay with letting Rhen live on his own when she was 19, her brother being 16, and set off to explore. The siblings don’t get the chance to see each other often after that, but Ashe tries her best to visit whenever she can.

During one of her first times exploring, Ashe ran into Kami, who was pretty beaten up at the moment. She treated the purple cat‘s injuries, and that was all she wanted to help with. Although Kami developed a quick interest in Ashe, but she wasn’t interested back. That didn’t stop the cat from flirting with her every time they run into each other again though.

As more time passes, she ends up missing Ice once she’s matured and when the death of her mother didn’t take much of a toll on her anymore, and wishes she was still with him. She regretted her immature actions and wishes she had communicated with Ice instead of lying. Maybe things would have turned out differently. While they did have some closure and a proper conversation about their feelings when they met again a couple of months since she started exploring, with Ashe revealing a lot more about her past, things she never wanted to tell anyone, Ashe knows she can’t turn back time, and only hopes Glacile is happy with his current life, partner, and friends. She’s happy they at least still remain best friends.

A few months later, Ashe ran into Cascade. Cascade attacked Ashe as revenge for getting rejected. While Ashe did try to defend herself, she never did much due to not liking to fight. She had always preferred self defense until she can run away, but Cascade never even gave her a chance to think of how to, and even caused the nick Ashe now has on her ear. She was later rescued by Kami and her friends, although Ashe grew to fear Cascade. Though after her kidnapping a week after that, Ashe ends up becoming braver at the sight of Cascade. Most of this is thanks to Kaizo, for comforting her despite helping Cascade all the way. After this, Ashe tried to sharpen her fighting skills so that she doesn’t have to rely on others so much for her safety.

Years after those incidents, Ashe has grown to be more social with her new friends, especially the ones from Leaflet Village as she‘s been visiting there a lot more often now to see Rhen. She wanted to improve her social skills, as well as grow closer to Rhen as she feels that she hasn’t been the best sister to him for all these years. Her social skills are still below average, but her friends have helped her get better one step at a time. Ashe has even grown to actually like Kami, especially after she’s shown a bit of maturity, and got together with her when Ashe was almost 26.

At 29, Ashe has decided to try and disband the rogues from her homeland, with Kami and Cascade. She found out that she’s had a half sibling this whole time. Ashe and her friends managed to succeed with their goal, and the event ended up in Vezcta joining Ashe on her travels.
