Jill Aster

**Jill Aster** is the twin sibling of Undye. They're a citizen of Voskovy, they also used to be on the Council to help run things until they decided to step down to go on a prolonged break. They're not exactly the social type, preferring to stay in a small group at all times.

## Personality

Jill is prone to getting into trouble, but seems to not be too bothered about it, if at all. They're introverted and prefers on getting jobs done themselves if possible, rarely asking for help even if they doesn't know how to do something. They're quite the independent fellow, almost never allowing themselves to fall in love. Ironically enough, they're very friendly with everyone as they believe everyone should get a chance to prove themselves. They stay neutral on many topics and events, not liking the idea of choosing a side unless strictly needed for the betterment of their own situation.

## Hobbies

Gardening is one of many hobbies Jill enjoys, but it is the main one. They dedicated making an indoor garden in their basement, even inviting small critters to live there. Nobody knows how they got them in there and nobody will ever find out.

Another hobby they enjoy is collecting weapons and other trinkets from people- the most important ones being a sword named "The Circus Entertainer" and an axe named "The Axe Of Love" gifted by their first wife, Elzaress. The second one being gifted to them on their wedding day. There's also a trident, given to them by Timothy Assassin, their (now deceased) best friend along with their twin brother gifting them a fully enchanted Netherite armour set for their first birthday celebrated in Rathnir.

## Origins

Being born into a poor family is never something to be joyous about, especially if you’re not the only child. Even more if you live in a cold area where food is scarce. That being said, Jill lived with their parents, cat and twin brother, Undye. It had been a tough year for them, the cold weather ruining all chances for a fruitful harvest. It didn't take long until the desperation and hunger set in. Jill themselves could not go out and hunt for food as they were very frail. They got very easily sick, quite the total opposite from their brother who seemed to almost always be in pristine condition. It didn't mix well with not being able to eat, there was barely enough for two people, let alone four, plus the cat. Even with all of that, Jill pushed themselves to not be too much of a burden for their family.
With being sickly and frail, they never expected to one day feel the worst they ever had. Having to practically starve themselves was one thing but witnessing their twin brother eating their cat like a madman was an experience that will forever be burnt into their mind. Dropping the basket half-filled with herbs, they had screamed out in pure terror and efficiently alerted their parents. Before even having a chance to process the situation properly, Undye had been thrown out. Jill still could not make any sound as they watched him walk away, leaving blood stains in the snow next to the trail he walked on.

Ever since that day, Jill had found themselves more weaker from the stress the incident had given them. As time went on, they could not walk very far from the house before passing out from exhaustion. It wasn't until the had found a crimson colored crystal on the ground that things seemed to take a better turn for a while. Sure, they had pricked their finger on it and had absorbed it, but they felt fine afterwards. Way too fine, actually.

Jill had promptly started helping their parents with all the housework that their brother used to do, preparing for another ''Sweet Christmas''. It was the only Holiday that kept the family from feeling like they had hit rock bottom.

The so-called Sweet Christmas never arrived, things took a turn for the worse. Jill had gotten unexpectedly sick, if you touched them, they'd feel as if they were made out of ice. There was no fever, no coughing, nothing to indicate what could be wrong. Christmas day had passed and it still did not get better and on New Year's.. Jill's body was buried behind the house.

With each passing year the grave of Jill had more and more crimson crystals protruding from it, in the end, forming some sort of cocoon with themselves curled up inside it. To anyone passing by, it would be an interesting sight, too bad nobody would ever get to see it. With a 'CRACK!', the crystal cocoon had opened up. Jill had crawled out, feeling just as cold as before they 'died', if you can even call it that. Feeling confused with their situation, Jill had promised themselves to find out the reason that they're still alive and what it had to do with those crimson crystals.

## Rathnir

Jill had found themselves in Rathnir after suddenly waking up from their grave. They wandered around until they found themselves in a tundra. Soon they set their eyes on a small but at the time, lively, city called Voskovy that was next to the same crimson crystals they had woken up in. They immediately got chummy with the citizens there and became apart of the community, helping however they could while also researching about their own situation.

A month or so in they became apart of the Council that had ran the city as the designated Head Builder along with being a Vilay for a short while and continued doing the same things as before, yet this time with more of a workload. They were friendly with everyone, enemies and allies alike which caused an uproar and they were thought to be a spy for the now collapsed nation of Tovarisha. It was almost immediately debunked after they were questioned and enough proof was shown.
