Personal history
Asteria was born in the north parts of the Riva plains to two members of Pytha Tribe . Per tradition, Asteria was taken to the naming elder, and it was shown that Asteria would be a daughter of the goddess Asteria, the goddess of the stars and night visions. Though Asteria won't remember this, a bird of the goddess, the dark bird, landed in Asteria's crib while the naming elder was there. She lived with her family and her younger brother until slavers attacked the village, bringing Asteria to the desert on the opposite side of the Continent. It would be the last time she would ever see her family. She was bought by the desert lord Javo, and as Asteria grew up, she would be trained to be a dancer.
When Asteria was 10, she escaped into the desert. She suffered from heat stroke, and when night came, hypothermia. She would be found by Reveille scavengers and brought back to the desert lord. She was between life and death for several days, but by some miracle, she recovered. This would lead more girls to escape in the desert, though all their corpses would be found.
Asteria was 22 when she used the Champion's Spirit for the first time when she was attacked by a group drunk party guests who had snuck into the dancers' quarters. This triggered the Champion's Spirit, and Asteria would destroy them all. This caused chaos in the palace, sending it into a lock down. This would also attract the attention of the Mages, who would come disguised within the next week to find the Champion.
Along with the other girls in residence of the desert lord's palace, Asteria was put into a test of reading a poem, and then finishing it without knowing the rest. In truth, it was a part of Champion Kauis' writings that he would often recite memorized. There were other tests, such as choosing toys and a questioning. Asteria was determined to be Champion, and was bought off the desert lord, who remained unaware of Asteria's real identity, due to them not telling them and testing girls of all species, since it was known that the next Champion would be a Krorine girl. She would be taken to the island of mages to be trained as the next Champion.
