Thestra

Though she likes to pretend she's a Draigis, when being herself she acts most unlike one.

### Aliases

The Happy Draigis, The One Who Understood

## Appearance

Thestra, being a Pseudodraigis, Takes on much the same appearance of one, with blackish-red skin instead of light blue. She is in, unlike most draigis-type figures, she is not incredibly muscular, and has red hair. She dresses in some rather ragged layered cloths. Though she could theoretically dress in normal clothing, she tends not to, more because she thinks her ragged clothing looks cool then anything else, and that it 'fits her aesthetic so well.' Her horns go by a rather simple look by draigis standards. Referred to by Max as looking 'cute', however Ebonor does note that this is probably just part of him being the only other Pseudodraigis in the anti-death gang.

## History

Thestra before meeting Ebonor had actually lived a very tragic life. She grew up on the streets and, like max, managed to craft her own boat once she had had enough and set out to find a better meaning to life. Unlike max, however, the first place she landed was fire fortress. At 14, she met the Draigis Pyromancer Zesprin and was, through excruciating primitive methods, turned into a Pseudodraigis, and served as a slave for her many years thereafter, and suffering cruel treatment from Zesprin and Arendel, with Nesmot being the only one who did not thrash her on the back for every misdeed she did. At one point, she actually managed to train herself to be able to fly, and flew back to her home the first chance she got, only to discover that her parents were killed by Dece Noko during his first resurrection. Then, due to her curse, the people of her home were shaken by her appearance and viewed her as a monster to be dealt with by the Anti-Death Gang. Completely broken, she was in a hopeless, depressed and possibly close to suicidal state when Ebonor found her in one of the alleys near the Anti-Death Gang's garage. Gradually over the coarse of a few months, Thestra became more calm and controlled, and best of all, no longer a hopeless wreck. Soon she tried to own the fact that she was a Pseudodraigis, and became a waitress briefly for the Anti-Death Gang's favorite restaurant, Voids of the East.

When Tharchilla began the construction of the Dome, Max had discovered, and, with a few friends, raided it. The result was disastrous, with Max becoming a Pseudodraigis being by far the worst of it. Hopeless, Max had been in a state similar to, though not worse then Thestra herself had been. Ebonor shortly after, as a way to calm his friend, introduced him to Thestra, and over the next week she became a good friend, joining the Gang thereafter as a trusted agent. She played a crucial role in destroying The Dome, fending off Nicko and waves of tiny steel automatons he sent after her team while Ebonor and Max got into the center. She survived the incident, luckily, and later after it's destruction enjoyed a dinner with the Anti-Death Gang in their favorite restaurant that she once worked in, being officially welcomed as a member thereafter.

## Powers

Thestra is known to have the ability to fly, though she doesn't have many others. She is well trained in hand-to-hand combat, with her claws giving her an edge in combat, as well as being an adpet fighter in arieal combat. She also happens to be a skilled cook, having worked at a quality restraunt for a few years.

## Personality

Generally speaking, Thestra is quiet, shy, and likes to goof off at times. However, generally speaking then as a freind she is an encouraging, gentle and kind person. Still, this does not mean that she doesn't forget her past. She will gasp, lean backward, back away, or even scream is she sees fire, a fact that Max is aware of, making him generally avoid using his firey mace's flaming powers in her prescence. Nonetheless, she can gather her nerves. And when she does, she serves as a devoted fighter and friend.

## Equipment

Generally speaking, Thestra does not carry much on her, aside from some very fashionable rags. However different gear she has used include limited technology, as well as a vaiety of longswords, in which she will use a strangely refined sword technique, however is still far less experinced than many, many other swordsmen in the Void's End.

## Trivia

* Surprisingly, she is one of the only two female heroes in Void's End, with the other being Mad Madam Madamane.
* Her art was actually made when I was asked what a female Psuedodragis looked like, and when I was finished I told myself "This needs to be canon"
