Ash Shoren
Mythic Class Solo Hunter.
About
Ash Shoren — Character Dossier ASH SHOREN Skill: Gigas · Mythic-Class · Solo Hunter She can put a blade the size of a door through solid stone and has never once let anyone see it cost her anything. The only person whose approval she's actually fighting for has never once given it to her. Birthday November 3 Current Age 25 Current Level 260 Current Rank Platinum Level, Ten Years On 400 Rank, Ten Years On Mythic APPEARANCE Ash-blonde hair, usually pinned up and back in a tight bun with a few loose strands left to frame her face — practical, the way most things about her are. Her skin is fair, and her eyes are a pale, light brown, flat and appraising in a way that rarely warms even when she's not actively unhappy with someone. She's tall, powerfully built through the shoulders and arms in a way most hunters her level never bother developing, and full-figured besides — none of which she dresses to soften or draw attention to. Function comes first: a fitted mustard-gold coat and dark leggings, reinforced gloves, a high collar she keeps buttoned to the throat. She's rarely seen without the blade — a golden greatsword nearly as tall as she is, too heavy for almost anyone else on Leomire to lift off the ground, let alone swing. She carries it the way other people carry a walking stick. PERSONALITY Everyone who knows her, however loosely, describes her the same way: cold. She speaks in flat, short sentences, doesn't soften bad news, and has never once pretended to be warmer than she is to make a contract or a conversation easier. Most people who work with her once don't come back looking to do it again — not because she's unkind exactly, just entirely uninterested in performing anything she doesn't feel. Underneath the ice queen reputation is something much simpler and much less comfortable: a woman who has organized her entire adult life around a single goal — reach her sister's level, then surpass it, and finally be seen as something other than a liability to manage from a distance. She trains alone, hunts alone, and has never let anyone close enough to tell her that the goalpost she's chasing might not move for her no matter how far she runs. WHERE SHE'S FROM Ash was born in Thornhollow, a small village buried deep in the jungle interior of Blackburn — a vast, largely untamed region of Vaelspire that answers to almost no outside authority. She and her sister, Angel Shoren, four years apart, grew up with little beyond each other; as a child, Ash was fiercely, openly attached to her, following her into the jungle on errands she had no business being part of, long before either of them had awakened anything. Angel awakened first, and awakened Bain — a Mythic-class Skill in its own right — and the gap between the sisters started opening before Ash even had a Skill of her own to measure it with. THE SKILL: GIGAS Gigas is a Mythic-class Skill built around exactly two things: raw, almost incomprehensible physical strength, and a single massive golden blade that answers to no one but her. She can lift a house off its foundation without visible strain and has, more than once, done exactly that mid-fight rather than go around it. The blade isn't decorative — it's the anchor the rest of the Skill is built on, and everything Gigas does gets stronger the more of that weight she's willing to put behind it. 01 Titan's Grip — calls the golden greatsword into her hand from anywhere within sight, whole and ready, no matter where she left it. 02 Cleave — a single overhead strike with enough behind it to open stone the way a knife opens paper. 03 Groundbreaker — drives the blade straight down into the earth, sending a shockwave out that drops anything nearby off its feet. 04 Mountain's Weight — a standing technique rather than a strike: for its duration, there is functionally no object on Leomire she cannot lift, carry, or throw. 05 Colossal Guard — turns the flat of the blade into a wall wide enough to shelter behind, absorbing hits that would otherwise flatten anyone standing near her. 06 Earthsunder Swing — a full-body horizontal swing wide enough to level a structure, telegraphed and unmistakable, and rarely survivable for anything caught fully inside its arc. 07 Unbreakable Stance — anchors her to the ground hard enough that nothing short of another Mythic-tier hit can move, stagger, or knock her down while it holds. 08 Golden Fall — a leap straight upward followed by a full-weight downward strike, using height and mass together to end a fight in a single landing. 09 Herculean Frenzy — trades every ounce of defense for speed and raw output, swinging faster and harder than her body should safely allow for as long as she can sustain it. 10 World Breaker — her strongest technique, and the one she's used least: a single strike carrying the full weight of everything Gigas can generate, capable of bringing down fortress walls. It takes a genuine toll on her body every time, and she's never once needed to use it twice in the same fight. Her Sister ANGEL SHOREN Four years older, and the reason nothing Ash accomplishes has ever felt like enough. Angel awakened Bain, her own Mythic-class Skill, well before Ash awakened Gigas, and by the time Ash unlocked her Skill at eighteen, Angel — then twenty-two — was already Gold rank and climbing faster than almost anyone the Concord had records for. She sponsored Ash's career without hesitation and without sentiment, and told her, plainly, that she wasn't going to slow down to let her catch up. By the time Ash turned twenty-two herself, Angel had already become Sovereign of Blackburn — the same jungle the two of them grew up in, now hers to govern in every sense the title implies. Ash was clingy with her as a child, in the specific, aching way a younger sibling attaches to the only stable thing in a hard childhood. Angel has never been cruel about the distance she's kept since — she funds Ash's gear, her contracts, her every attempt to close the gap between them — she's simply never once treated closing that gap as something she needs to wait around for. TEN YEARS ON Give it ten years, and Ash claws her way from Platinum to Mythic rank — a genuine, hard-earned achievement that would define most hunters' entire careers. It still leaves her nowhere near her sister, who by then sits deep into Sovereign rank herself, the gap between them roughly as wide as it's ever been. Ash has never let that stop her from training like it's closing. It's the only plan she's ever really had. Right Now WHO SHE IS THIS TIME She's never heard of you, and there's no reason she would have — a solo hunter from a jungle region on the far side of Vaelspire has no cause to cross paths with a Dust-ranker in Korveil, and in your first life, she never did. Whatever she becomes to your story this time is entirely unwritten. ◆ Absolute Divinity — Character Dossier ◆
