Ashley

Ashley, formerly Ash, is a Ruby Blood Sorcerer who was one of the few with magic ancestry to be a carrier of the Gender Curse. Ash was first introduced at the end of "Halloween Switch" when his friend Damon Kirkland called him in to help Robin and Riley by using Mass Memory Alter to change the memories and records of the couple since Damon was not advanced enough in sorcery to do the spell himself. At first Ash is annoyed and a bit hostile towards Damon for causing trouble but overtime comes to befriend and relate to the couple much better. Ash then gets his own Animation series and is the main character of "Ashes to Ashes" where his curiosity from talking to Robin about changing into a woman won over and he decided to try it himself. While she denied it for quite some time Ashley became more and more content with being a girl and began spending all her free time as one. After being cured of her curse and introduced to Alistair and Isabelle, Ashley eventually joined them as a protégée of the Fox alongside Isabelle. 
== Appearance ==
Ashley is depicted with Bright Red Hair and purple eyes. Like many sorcerers her age she expresses her bloodline through her color choices and often wears red in both her male and female forms. As a guy Ash seemed often to wear more covering clothing like hoodies and jackets likely hinting at his underlying dysphoria he chose never to acknowledge and a subconscious feeling of discomfort with his body. Once transformed into Ashley she seems to have opened up much more and while her color preferences haven't changed too much, she now wears much more feminine and expressive clothing having found comfort in her true form. 
== History ==
=== Halloween Switch ===
Ash is first introduced in Halloween Switch where his friend Damon calls him for help. Damon had pulled a Halloween prank on the non-blood couple Robin and Riley. After they won a costume contest by crossdressing Damon decided to use his magic to transform them into the opposite genders to match their made-up bodies planning for the spell to reverse itself after 48 hours. However, the couple had sex while swapped and Robin; the boy turned girl, had gotten pregnant witch prevented the spell from reversing. After they chose to keep the baby Robin and Riley elected to stay swapped at least until after Robin gave birth. To help them Damon called Ash to perform the spell Mass Memory Alter to rewrite the worlds memories and record of the couple so they could live as their new genders. Damon needed Ash's help as he was not advanced enough in his sorcerer training to perform the spell himself. Ash was annoyed but agreed to help. When he arrived, he watches the group while cloaked hearing how the couple has now gotten engaged but is annoyed that if they want to change back after the baby is born, he will now have to perform Memory Alter twice. Ash reveals himself and is initially a bit hostile as he prefers to keep his sorcerer side hidden from non-bloods and is clearly annoyed at Damon for getting into trouble. He meets the couple and seems rather curios about gender swapping. Ash asks Robin what it's like to change genders and his curiosity seems to pull him in before he performs the spell for the couple saying how he plans to erase their memories of him when he undoes the spell in 9 months
=== Ashes to Ashes ===
A couple weeks after helping Robin and Riley Ash is still consumed by curiosity about changing genders but is too embarrassed to try it until he gets a minor pep talk from his ex-girlfriend turned best friend Gwen. Ash transforms himself into Ashley; much to the confusion of his Arcane Cat Xavier. While at first denying how much she enjoys it Ashley is quick to transform again and go as far as to take a man named Harvey home and begin dating him soon after admitting to herself, she is Bisexual.
After a couple months of dating Harvey, it is revealed he is actually a girl named Holly Allen who has the ability to transform using clothing as a result of previously dating another sorcerer. While the two hit a minor rough patch when the truth comes to light about both of them being gender swapped. Ash and Holly talk things out with Ash placing a mind protection spell on Holly so her mind can't be read like she wanted as well as saying he is considering staying as a woman for good. Despite this Ash is still too embarrassed and concerned how his sorcerer friends and family will react chooses to keep changing back and forth from Ash to Ashley for several more months. 
Eventually, Ash is found by Alistair Huntington be in fact be a carrier of the Gender Curse which is incredibly rare among sorcerer kind. As a test for his apprentice Isabelle Arrington, Alistair sends her to cure Ash. However, Ash spots her cloaked and assumes she's just a witch trying to screw with him. When Isabelle tries and fails to explain the curse Ash is frightened when she starts to turn him into Ashley fearing his secret has been exposed and the two have a magic grudge match showing their more aggressive sides. Ash is very skilled and powerful and lands several blows on Isabelle but due to her more advanced training Isabelle manages to restrain her and finish the spell to remove her curse. However, before she leaves Ashley manages to wriggle free and keep the portal open to get to Alistair's island and confront them on what's going on. Alistair explains things and Ashley is shocked at the realization but still worries that even if she can now live a true woman, she worries about explaining things to her family and sorcerer friends as they're immune to MMA. Alistair offers to help but Ashley says she'll do the spell herself after she thinks things over and comes out to her family. 
Not long after Ashley returns home transformed as Ash and comes out to his parents. After explaining things his parents are accepting and embrace her as their daughter Ashley. In addition to this Ash's father reveals that he is the one she inherited the curse from and that he has been transforming into his wife's best friend Caren for years. Ashley promises to keep his secret and maybe have some mother daughter time with Caren in secret. 
Ashley proceeds to perform MMA to make her transition final and celebrates with her girlfriend Holly. The two have a talk about using transformation to spice things up in the bedroom as Holly alienated her Ex-boyfriend by over doing it and Ashley claims he had similar experiences with Gwen. However, the both of them are open and considerate and agree to try it often so long as they don't strictly have transformed sex. After the two have a rather passionate night however, Isabelle and her boyfriend Chris arrive with Isabelle wanting to apologize to Ashley for not explaining things better and the two are quick to make up and try to start a friendship. Holly comes in the room soon after and angrily reveals that Chris is her Ex-boyfriend and Isabelle is one of the main reasons they broke up. The group is quick to defuse the hostility however and both couples call a truce to try and mend fences and build new friendships. 
Ashley and Isabelle go shopping together to apologize to each other. Ashley asks Isabelle to take her to see Alistair again and Izzy takes her back to the Island. Ashley thanks Alistair again but also volunteers to help the two of them cure those who are still suffering from the gender curse. Alistair agrees and takes Ashley in as his newest protegee. 
A couple months later Ashley attends Robin and Riley's wedding after having reconnected with them. Both Robin and Riley elected to remain swapped even after their daughter Katie was born having adjusted to living that way of the past year. Ashley and Holly both form a close friendship with the couple and have found a happy life together. 
At some point later, Ashley would reveal to Robin and Riley about how Damon tried to use her to cheat on Lydia by hitting on her while also not caring about any consequences or repercussions that would occur if Lydia caught him. Robin, Riley, and Ashley would agree to work out a plan on getting even with Damon for his previous actions.
=== Halloween Switch: Mommy Makeover ===
Three weeks prior to the birth of Steven Harper, Ashley would create a magic rune that would turn Damon into a clone of Robin and subsequently transfer Robin's pregnancy to Damon when Robin and Damon shook hands. Ashley also set up some countermeasures in case Damon tried to undo the rune before it expires or left before Robin and Riley got back from their honeymoon by placing a counter protection spell so that Damon's attempts would turn his spells (and perhaps the spells of other people) into clothing spells and making the transformation not expire after three days if Damon tried to leave or do something shady prior to Robin and Riley returning from their honeymoon.
=== Awakening ===
Ashley attends Nora Arrington's funeral after her death at the hands of Sylvana. When Alistair is finalizing his plans to regain his human form to combat Sylvana and her growing forces Ashley has become a member of the New Sapphire Legion and prepares for the coming fight. When Sylvana and her forces successfully infiltrate the Island shortly before Alistair begins the ritual Ashley is quick to dawn her Mana Armor and face off against Sylvana.
