Asa is still young. Deceptively small, she is built for finesse fighting, with light sword and spear. The hair at the base of her scalp are white, but seem to fade to black. Her eyes are white as summer clouds. Though she's an accomplished fighter, it's something she always has to prove before she's believed, due to her very slight frame (like a bird's); thin arms and legs and of tiny size. She doesn't seem to have many scars at that — neither do her weapons. Her armor is of nordic flavor; her shield has a horse's head painted on it.

Naive | Idealistic | Daydreamer | Vivacious | Romantic | Lively
The "eager initiate" trope. Asa's ideals are mixed in with Giruvaga's vicious reputation — they clash like oil and water. She's a collusion of ideals: she loves the idea of a warrior hero, raised on stories her gramdparents had told her, yet Giruvaga's idea of a hero is...something resembling a mad berserker. Though Asa tried to fit in at first, she soon longed to leave. Asa takes more to the fables of Dorsum or Svalbard. She is infatuated with the idea of the errant knight. This makes her painfully naive. However, she is a purely helpful sort, altruistic, faithful and kind, who strives to leave any place a little better than when she left it.
