Astraea is the kindest person you will ever meet. But that doesn't mean she's soft. She's seen more death and destruction in her life that she knows exactly how to inflict it on those that hurt her she just chooses not to. She genuinely believes that the only way to get through life is to help those around her. It was why she trained to be a nurse.

Although she's still considered a new adult in fae terms she's been away from her own kind so long that she no longer feels as young as she should. She's lived more lives than she ever thought she would. She's no longer as much of a trickster as she once was and she only uses her abilities once in a while. She's a very strong Fae despite the lack of use of her magic.Her shifter magic takes the form of a sparrow which has helped her get away from quite a few tricky situations.

**5)What is your character's history? How did they find out about their supernatural genes? What was their home life like? Did they attend Olympus Academy? How did they find out about it? Try to be as detailed as possible in this section! At least three paragraphs of around 3-4 sentences each.**
The relationship between Aristoe and Emric Kazan was nothing short of a whirlwind romance by Fae standards. They met shortly before Aristoe's 1900th birthday and dated for only 90 years before they decided to tie the knot. It would be only a further 200 years before she gave birth to their first and only child, a girl they named Astraea. With Aristoe's water magic and Emric's ice magic what element Astraea would wield was always in question, but it never bothered them. They knew her magic would show itself in due course.

Growing up in the Fae realm Astraea was very much like the other Fae, she enjoyed her tricks and games, she enjoyed learning to control her magic (Ice, as they discovered when she was 800). Like most Fae she went through the immortality process at 25 years old, she did very well in training but she wasn't the top of her lessons. It was safe to say that there was nothing particularly exciting about the Kazan family, or at least that was the front they portrayed to the other fae.Behind closed doors however Aristoe and Emric had discovered a different type of magic. Much darker than anything they'd ever used before. They'd known exactly what they were getting into when they started but they couldn't have imagined what their delve into dark magic would cost them.

Astraea was in her 1600's, when she'd come home to find her parents frantically packing up their things. They'd ordered her to do the same without even a hint of an explanation. She'd done exactly what she was told, filling a bag with stuff before they ran. They didn't make it far before the Fae soldiers began chase.

They made it as far as the portal to the human world before the soldiers attacked them. Astraea doesn't remember much about that day. She remembers fire everywhere, she remembers shadows creeping their way across the forest floor dragging soldiers into the ground to who knows where and she remembers the look of panic on her mothers face as she turned to face her, her mouth forming the words run right before she got hit by a spear of ice. The terrified girl had no other option for survival other than to run. Straight through the portal to the human world.

She'd entered the human world stumbling into the path of a hunting party and promptly fainted. Waking up in 1320's England was not how she had seen her day going. She was lucky enough to be taken in by a baker family who had always wanted a child but had never had the money for a small kid, they taught her how to bake and for a year they provided her with a happy and healthy home. Until a year later they married her off to the butchers son.

This would be the first in a long line of marriage's Astraea would be forced into. Life in the human world was so very different to what she'd known, it took her a long time to understand how the world worked. It took her a long time to understand that not all people in the human world were as nice as those in the Fae world. And she made sure those that caused her to realise this paid dearly. Astraea learnt very quickly that human lives were not nearly as long as that of the Fae. They were barely even a fraction of it. And magic certainly wasn't welcome. She realised that in that first village when they'd chased her out with pitchforks.

She spent 700 years on earth alone, watching those she'd let herself care about grow old and die in the blink of an eye. She lived through the black death (which took her third husband from her), she lived through the hundred year war surviving on the edge of battlefields only by her own wit, she watched the conquest of the aztecs and survived the witch burning that ravaged the world. She was one of the first to train up as a nurse and secretly used her abilities to heal many during the typhoid Mary outbreak and both world war 1 and 2. Astraea had seen more than her fair share of violence and death. She'd met more supernatural beings than she ever thought possible. She was so absolutely exhausted of it all by the time she met a wood nymph in the early 2000s that told her about Olympus Academy.

At first she'd been sceptical, but she had very little options left. As much as human lives were longer, she didn't age at all. People seemed to catch up quicker now than they ever had in the past and with video cameras and photographs and the internet it was getting harder and harder to hide. So she turned to the Academy for help. She stayed there a full decade before she even considered giving back to them as a teacher.
