+ | ===== Personality ===== | ||
+ | Ashra, as a primordial, is a true force of darkness, nightmare, and | ||
+ | evil. As such, she relates little to the plight of mortals. However, unlike | ||
+ | Edea, there are documented instances of people encountering Her through various | ||
+ | means. It is said Ashra' | ||
+ | most ardent of heroes. In the years leading up to her awakening in 750 SG, an | ||
+ | idol tainted with the primordial' | ||
+ | the light, some of whom became enthralled by the visions and temptations it | ||
+ | visited upon them. Her Herald, Balur Black, has spoken on occasion about the | ||
+ | dream that first prompted him to seek Ashra out. Ashra is said to innately know | ||
+ | ones fears, desires, and distastes and how to best manipulate those feelings | ||
+ | to be used against oneself in the form of vicious visions and terrifying | ||
+ | nightmares. Several heroes have entered her realm and by all accounts, she was | ||
+ | able to use their own minds against them, some reporting they were trapped in | ||
+ | warped versions of their own memories. It seems that Ashra feeds off the raw | ||
+ | emotion she evokes in those touched by her. There is no doubt that, if left | ||
+ | unchecked by Edea, Ashra' | ||
+ | corruption, decay and destruction of the world. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Regards to Mortals ===== | ||
+ | Ashra does not generally interact with mortals directly. | ||
+ | Some mortals might be influenced through nightmares or feelings by being in | ||
+ | close proximity to places where she exists the strongest. She exists mainly as | ||
+ | an influential force that can bend mortals towards an idea, rather than | ||
+ | directing them specifically. | ||
