Astrid is a curious soul who hates to be hindered or blocked. She's a smart young woman, who likes to watch and wait before she charges ahead. She can be quite stubborn and insubordinate when she feels that she's right and someone else is wrong. Due to her childhood, she can be quite suspicious and secretive, though she'll open up after awhile if you're continuously nice to her or prove to be trustworthy. She can be quite vindictive if she feels that you've wronged her and she can be hot tempered.

Secrets:
She indirectly started the mob that killed her mother. She found a family starving while worshiping one of the trinkets she and her mother had sold them. The family apparently thought the trinket would provide them with food if they worshiped it enough, and Astrid told them that it wasn't true, because she felt such guilt for having a hand in their misfortune. The family then dissolved into rage and began chasing her.
She once found an injured crow and tried to nurse it back to health but she was careless and accidentally killed it.

HistoryAstrid was raised by a magical artifacts merchant who called herself 'The Fantastical Fran', but her real name was Franny Marsh and the artifacts that she swore up and down where magical were actually just useless trinkets that she found and made to look pretty with a bit of paint. Franny Marsh was a selfish liar and lived by the motto 'one for one not for all or anyone else'. She lived by this motto for twenty years until she came upon Astrid. Franny's first instinct was to shake off the crying child and keep going, but in a surprisingly uncharacteristic change of heart, The Fantastical Fran decided to adopt the girl and make her her apprentice. So began the travels of the Fantastical Fran and her apprentice, The Outstanding Astrid (neither of them could read, so they didn't notice the lack of alliteration). Franny taught Astrid everything she thought the girl needed to know about life.
1. Don't trust anyone. Even if they seem nice. They're not.
2. Always look for another way out, because there always is.
3. Never forget. Always take revenge a step further.
and 4. Never. Ever. Show Pity.
Astrid lived by those rules for the majority of her life, but every once in awhile she'd break a rule and see that things didn't go wrong like Fran insisted they would. Astrid and Fran lived a good life for awhile in a town of people who were so dissatisfied with their lives that they automatically believed that Fran's artifacts would solve all of their problems. The Marsh's lived in that town for about five years before the towns people realized they were being duped and sought to punish the liars brutally. The towns people struck while the Marsh's were separated, Fran was looking for more 'artifacts' and Astrid was at the market buying food. The town formed a mob and chased Fran and Astrid around town, and the latter Marsh used the town's architectural structures to her advantage. Astrid climbed up buildings, slid under carts, and squeezed through alleys to shake off her pursuers. Fran however, was not so lucky. The woman was beat half to death and when the mob was finished and Astrid found her mother, Fran had her take her to their cart which hadn't been damaged, thankfully. She then told Astrid that she wasn't her real mother and that she had found her with two objects, a magical cloak and a locked map. She gave both those things to Astrid and died in her arms. Astrid left the town that day with her mother body wrapped up in the cart. She buried her mother on the side of a road far from the town and then continued on her way to...Who knows where. -
