Azusa

**Azusa Aizawa** is a Swamp Elf Bartender hailing from the deep swamps of former Schwanstein. Now, she currently lives with her husband, Exarian Crimsone, while working at the Twisted Branch in Chervonstad.

## Appearance

Azusa is an unconventional swamp elf. While her general appearance follows the traditional mould of her race – tall and slender build – her physical attributes are distinctively different.

Her pale skin is unique and rare for elves living in swamps, as is her long, mint green hair that reaches down to her waist. What truly sets her apart from the others is the absence of horns on her head.

Azusa is known for her eccentric style of dress. She is usually seen wearing a messy brown coat and green shorts, on which she has planted flowers – red roses and white daisies. It is said that the flowers are a symbol of her own individualism and her refusal to conform to the norms of her society.

Despite her lack of horns, she is still accepted by other swamp elves. She is known for her kind and generous nature, and is often seen helping others in need.

Azusa is an inspiration to all who know her. She is a reminder that it is possible to stand apart from the crowd and still be respected and accepted. Her unique appearance and refusal to conform to the norms of her society is a testament to the strength of her character.

## Biography

Azusa and her adopted brother, *Nyan\_der*, were born into a small family in an isolated wetland sealed off from the outside world with what they felt was an insurmountable wall of trees. Here they spent the formative years of their lives with very little contact to the outside world, until wanderlust had finally struck the sibling pair, and they devised a way to escape.

Once they escaped, Azusa and Nyan found themselves in the great city of Schwanstein. In an unfamiliar environment, Azusa realised she would have to adapt to the new lifestyle quickly, or risk being forced to return to her old life. Nyan had established a maid cafe, and with little options of what to do, she decided to work there as one of the maids.

After the eventual collapse of Schwanstein, Azusa was once again left out to travel on her own. She ended up at a place called Yham, a city-state that dotted the countryside with farmland, yet hid a vast underground housing network underneath. She ended up working again in another maid cafe for the period of his stay during this time.

Azusa currently works at The Twisted Branch, a bar establishment within the city of Chervonstad. During her employment there, she met, fought, and lost against one CrimsonDragon. Eventually, the two fell for one another, and she had her brother, who had become a priest, marry Asuza and CrimsonDragon at Chervonstad. She currently lives in a bunker called The Asu80, which she found directly under her workplace.

## Possessions

### Weapons

Asuza's choice of weaponry, the Holy Baguette is a magically infused netherite sword with the power of mystic luck and wind. The sword appeared naturally drawn to her by fate, as one day while brewing, it summoned itself and flung into her hand, much to the dismay of her kettle. Her bow, The Holy Macaron, manifested itself in a similar manner, and the two items remain with her at all times, lest she be caught in a precarious situation without them.

### Cats

Recently, Azusa has added a new member to her family - a cat named Roosje. Azusa found the little kitty while out for a stroll in the nearby park and immediately fell in love. Roosje has quickly become an important part of Azusa's life. The two can often be found snuggling up together or playing around the bar.

Azusa's friendly and welcoming demeanor has earned her the loyalty of her patrons. She has also become an integral part of the Twisted Branch family. With her new pet, Roosje, by her side, Azusa will continue to provide the best service and drinks that Chervonstad has to offer
