Jasmine (AST)

**Morgan Le Faye** is 12th circle Grand Magus though she prefers to go by **Jasmine** the name given to her by Dragon Lord Mandrake when they married. She left the musk after her son Garnet killed her husband.

## Appearance

Jasmine is a woman of European descent, with long brown hair. She wears a woman's suit with only an odd flower in her hair giving her some flair.

## Personality

Other then the natural arrogance befitting someone of her station Jasmine has shown herself to be a rather nice and humble woman. She is generally cool headed, showing an almost boredom with most situations, even those of serious threat.

She’s shown to have her own eccentricities as Siren was surprised that a twelfth circle grand magus would take on apprentices. Despite Garnet being her son, Jasmine has no love for him as he killed her husband. She likewise initially detested Herb, but came to believe that was a premature assessment now after getting to know him. She has no loyalty, however, to the current Musk. Her only tie to it even when married was my Mandrake, and as such she care little of the clan. However why she has no love for her son that doesn't mean she will directly harm him.

## History

Early works featuring Morgan do not elaborate her character beyond her role as a enchantress or sorceress. However when Merlin put in place some magic to maintain the legend of Arthur, the spell was very weak on maintaining the details so it allowed a lot of artistic license. She became both more prominent and morally ambivalent in later texts, in particular in cyclical prose works such as the Lancelot-Grail and the Post-Vulgate Cycle, in which she turns into a dangerous enemy of King Arthur and antagonist of some tales.

While Morgan wasn’t the evil sorceress history portrays her as she was very young and stupid once, and having a bit of a long term temper tantrum. Her rivalry with Guinevere resulted from the fact that She wasn't exactly happy in my relations of the time and was entertaining various men which Guinevere outed her for getting Morgan banished from the court. Naturally her hypocrisy in having an affair ticked Morgan off, unfortunately she took out her anger on the whole round table.

While it took a while she got over it. She found a nice guy, got settled in a bit and realized she was being needlessly childish and decided to drop the whole thing save one last dig at Guinevere. Namely telling Arthur what she did. Arthur was willing to let Guinevere off the hook and hide it, but Mordred (he wasn’t her son) revealing it publicly later ended up bringing down Camelot. Sadly this prevented her from marrying her first love as he ended up dying in the war.

Mandrake was the first man after him that really made Morgan feel something. Sadly he died after the Dark Kingdom attacked the Musk. This was just before they assaulted the Moon Kingdom. Jasmine was out of the area at the time, and by the time she returned the Musk had just vanished. She learned later that Sorora had taken their capital and surrounding lands into its own pocket dimension to protect it. So, she was stuck outside, while he was stuck in. He died before they rejoined the outside world.

## Plot

Jasmine was asked oversee Frost’s repair of the Kaisuifu. Frost’s talent is beyond her years. While not unusual when it happens the council typically know why, but that wasn’t the case with Frost. Jasmine was sent to keep an extra careful eye on her. However the reason she agreed was to see her grandson Herb. She had her apprentices Devlin and Grenda meet her at the San Cheng Huang where the ceremony would held. After being greeted by Siren she met with Kasumi to make sure that she was fine with everything. Siren had already broken everything down for Kasumi so she knew things would be civil.

With that out of the way the conversation moved to Ranko since her anti magical properties could be perceived as a threat she was asked to leave. Ranko after getting over the shock of seeing the Devlin and Grenda’s true form perfectly understood and went back to her dorm.

Kasumi showed Jasmine to a private room that she linked to one of her pocket dimensions. She gave control over it as well as the protective charm she placed on the restaurant. This also provided Kasumi with true sight allowing her the apprentices true forms for the first time. The two properly introduced themselves causing Grenda to jab Devlin in the shoulder after a bad joke. Kasumi got over her shock as the three were about to leave and asked Jasmine to look over Shampoo.

Jasmine quickly concluded it was kitsune in original. She would conclude the kitsune was young, likely not even one tail, and that tail was an enchantment one. When the protection charm detected that someone was in distress, She found that it was the Kitsune Lemon, whose energy levels had regressed to the point where she had regressed to her fox form. She quickly directs her to be taken elsewhere for treatment. Jasmine took them to a room in her pocket zone where he was left to watch over her, after she placed a seal on her powers. She returned to overhear the groups suspicion that Garnet must be aware that the fox clan were kitsune and confirmed that was indeed the case.

Ignoring Guan Li’s question of how she knew the Dragon Lord of the Musk, Jasmine informed the group that Lemon was now under her protection. Guan Li reluctantly agreed and Jasmine turned and returned the way she came.

Overhearing Devlin offered to make Kogane a new body in exchange for Gosunkugi becoming his student. When Shampoo pointed out, that didn’t make any sense. Jasmine who had just arrived told them how apprentice mages tend to get worked like dogs for years by their masters.

It turns out that Devlin’s last apprentice was eaten, while he managed to reattach his limbs’ it would be awhile before he recovered. Despite this Gosunkugi said he’d think about it. Despite this Gosunkugi said he’d think about it. He also seemed to be developing a crush on Kogane. He jokingly commented about how cool it would be to fight evil sorcerers. This angered Jasmine who most consider to be evil due to the various rumors about her. Realizing that it was five in the morning he rushed home.

When the subject of Lemon came up, Shampoo openly thought about going to 'haunt' her, but was discouraged by Jasmine who critiqued her by comparing Lemon's method to the Amazons' own to which Shampoo had no counter. Kasumi and Siren came to visit Lemon the next day but Jasmine still wouldn’t let them see her. While she was past the danger point she was still very low on energy. She also cautioned Kasumi warning her that kitsunes are a tight-nit community so some are most likely coming to rescue her.

She proved correct when Shampoo and Ukyo returned to the restaurant later to inform everyone that Ranma and Kasumi had been kidnapped. Jasmine joined as they and Cologne were trying to explain to everyone what happened, asking them to not further escalate the situation and ensured them she would bring any remaining Amazons outside safely within the barrier currently erected at the restaurant.

Sensing a powerful entity at Furinkan Jasmine teleported there, but much to her surprise Siren informed her that everything was fine. As she tried to figure out what was going on she spotted Eyebright walking towards them. Telling Siren not to interfere unless her barrier is attacked Jasmine walked forward to meet the man. He made small talk pretending that he wasn’t aware that she’d be there. Jasmine ignored him and merely asked why he wasn’t at the restaurant to retrieve his daughter. Eyebright asked her to surrender Herb to him stating that in her current condition he must make every effort to safeguard her as a loyal member of the Musk. Jasmine tired pretense told him that Herb was under her protection. Eyebright replied that he must insist and before she could react he pulled her a phantom realm to battle.

What the battle was as devastating as two extremely powerful magical beings could make it. It was obvious that Eyebright wasn’t taking things seriously, which the bored Jasmine eventually called him out on. Eyebright smiled but then suddenly lost his composure. His expression changed to concern before without answering he vanished. Jasmine followed him shortly after. She arrived just in time to stop him from killing Kasumi and the others who had defeated his wife Peach. This gave them the chance to enter the barrier.

Eyebright, frustrated with the situation, declared he was committed and that although he would not attack further, there was only two ways this would be allowed to end, Herb surrendering or dying. He explained that he could not let Herb return to the Musk alive given all that had happened, and sooner or later they would kill him before he could return. Kasumi, currently in male form, realizing the situation was otherwise intractable, confirmed with a look to Shampoo and then declared his intent to take Herb as his wife by Amazon law.

Frost would finally succeed in the enchantment, where Jasmine would officially rank her as an Archmage. Jasmine also became her new Grand Magus overseer giving Frost a one week deadline to report to her for further training. She found Siren and Soap waiting for her the archmage wanted to know why was a 12th circle sent to oversee Frost’s graduation. Siren called So Pu out for not informing them about Jasmine’s ties to the Musk, but she wasn’t aware of how extensive it was. Jasmine assured her that could are less what happened to the Musk as she only had ties to her husband. Siren however remained skeptical. On Soap’s suggestion Jasmine agreed to consent to adding herself to the bargain between the Amazons and the Musk, and this be marked to ensure her cooperation. Though she wasn’t willing to get directly involved, as no matter what he had done Garnet was still her son.

During the meeting with the Amazons to make things official Herb would unexpectedly make several demands to get his agreement. First he demanded that Shampoo and the others in the marriage have full honors restored. Second that Kasumi could marry a male of her choosing and was not limited to him. Third that neither So Pu nor Eyebright would use Kasumi to support their actions while she ruled. And finally that should any fallout come their way due to the coup, both parties would make every effort to protect Kasumi and those around her. Eyebright and So Pu agreed to the conditions and Jasmine guided them into a magical pact to seal the agreement. Eyebright needed only to recognize it without Herb’s dispute. With that Jasmine produced the Kaisuifu which proved a success.

Jasmine decided to leave the pocket dimension up giving ownership of it to Kasumi. She also left her fountain that could be used as a means of communication between her, Jasmine, Eyebright and Soap. Before he left Eyebright also informed Kasumi that Lemon was hers to do with as she pleased. After learning that she would be made to man if she returned home, Kasumi decided to let her stay. It was obvious she was being played, but Kasumi couldn’t just leave her to suffer. Jasmine was against the idea, but still advised Kasumi to get the amulet of protection from Sissithississ as well as her cloak. Last but not least she warned her that Frost would be leaving with her so no more magical advice.

Jasmine was in the middle of researching how to perform a 13th circle spell when Frost showed up. It was a bit of an ongoing challenge between all the 12th circle mages to see who can manage the first successful 13th. However she was simply doing the layout and expected it to be at least a decade before she accomplished anything. Frost ended freezing in awe at the sheer size of her study which she broke her out of by revealing that she was floating above her. Frost gave Jasmine the books she brought who began leafing through them. Several minutes passed in silence, although Frost was still distracted by her new surroundings

Jasmine regained her attention when she told her complete one of the 9th circle. Frost tried to protest that she wasn’t ready only to for Jasimine to cut her off and remind her that she was an Archmage now. Jasmine was giving Frost clearance for a 9th circle and expected her to pull off a 10th once she completed that. She gave Frost her work book telling her that once it was complete she was free to go. When Frost asked about the fighting challenge she was told about, Jasmine confirmed that was in there as well.

Though she did warn Frost about being restrained in challenging her otherwise she would become annoyed. It is revealed that the reason Frost was sent to Jasmine was because the council was curious about her fast progress. Jasmine wondered if it had something to do with her involvement with the Senshi. She warned Frost that while she the 12ths and the more trustworthy 11ths had figured it out some others might view it dimly. Frost thought she might have come up with something but Jasmine told her not to elaborate.

She gave Frost an automation to tend to her needs before she left, however she gave her one last revelation who she really was. Frost naturally went wide eyed at this, spinning on Jasmine and almost impulsively asking a question before noticing the Grand magus gave her 'The true history of the round table' stating that she would have to read that before she elaborated any further.

## Ability

Jasmine is a Grand Magus, circle 12. The least complicated way to describe her nature it that she is both human and Fae.

## Notes

Jasmine is described as looking a lot like Artoria Pendragon from the TYPE-MOON universe.
