Aster Tiernan
Appearance
Aster strays from conventional beauty standards by having a stronger, pronounced facial structure compared to the usual slender structure many fae women possess. With a heart shape face, her forehead tends to be broader than most but it only seems to accentuate how her face seems to be carved instead of molded. High, prominent cheek bones elevate her face dramatically along with her sharp, square jaw that many would kill for. Her lips add the only softness to her features, they are full and shapely, always somehow seeming to curve up at the corners. Her nose is straight, sloping in a harsh triangle, but it only fits her features. Her deep set eyes are almond shape, nearly cat-like, the color of a misty-morning sky that has yet to deepen its blue. A constant white glaze is over her irises, further hiding the blue from view.
Her pale skin is nearly flawless, the only scars being from her tattoos of the arcane: various animals and symbols decorate her creamy flesh that entrances the eye. She is of average duanann female height, built slender with svelte legs and a small waist. She is graceful in every movement, a nimble elegance from the way she walks to the way she flips her long, black hair over her shoulder. Her hair is one of her best features, the color of onyx with a luster shine reminiscent of diamonds.

Duanann Affinity
- Psychometry
- Also referred to as token-object reading. It is a form of extrasensory perception characterized by the ability to make relevant associations from an object of unknown history by making physical contact with that object. An object has an energy field that transfers knowledge regarding that object's history.
- Because of her affinity, Aster lost her sight at the age of 5 when her powers manifested.
- Recently, she has been training with Eske to see more than just histories of objects and to extend it to living things like people. This includes seeing potential futures for those objects and/or people. She can use this power to "see" the world by physically touching another living being and "borrowing" their sight. Unfortunately, she does not have control over it, so she wears gloves and covers up most of her skin so she does not touch objects unless she has to.
Elemental Alignment
- Air
- She received tutelage in the uses of air from the Lord of the Lunar Winds, Asemir.
Celestial Alignment
- Lunar
Animal Form
- Raven
- When Aster is in her raven form, she is not blind. This is because her affinity is not active when she shifts into a raven.

Biography & Lore
Aster Tiernan was born to two loving parents who are still alive and very much in her life. She was not born blind, she lost her sight at the age of 5 when her affinity manifested itself. It was the same age that she was taken to be trained as an Omnia. She trained under High Omnia Eske part time until she was 240 years old and that is when she went to live with the Omnia and train full time.
When she was 733 years old, she started to accompany Eske to deliver the Winter Futures Tome with Eske to learn and train. After five decades, Eske felt confident Aster could handle it on her own, but she asked Baenon to be her "chaperone" while she was in the Winter Court. For the next 400 years, Baenon would escort her to the Winter Court so she could deliver the Futures Tome and they would spend the week together before she returned home to the Dusk Court.
