**Castra** (Cast-rah), Child of The Stars is the savior of **Atena's Planet** and the new Goddess of space, but she prefers to be called her official title, The Child of The Stars (Named by Terra).

## Personal Information

### Relatives

The First Gods, Atena, Cordelia, Tana, Sepi, Nephaline

### Occupation

The New Goddess of Space/Guardian of Atena's Planet

## Appearance

Castra is a young adult elf girl who is a bit tall for her age, yet she's shorter than Cora. Castra has black hair that is normally long, but she cut it to be short and slightly spiky. She has soft green eyes, a scar on the left of her face, and another wound to the right. She has black little star-and-moon earrings on her elf ears, and she has barely visible freckles on her cheeks.

Castra wears a dark navy blue shirt that could almost pass as black, a black collar necklace, and a gray unbuttoned flannel sweater. She also sometimes wears a witch hat because she practices magic, but she mostly doesn't.

## Personality

Castra is very smart and kind. She's very brave but also can be shy at times. She's not afraid to pyt herself out there, like when she spoke out against Terra when she first met her and accidentally said the wrong thing without thinking. She is a bit clumsy sometimes, but she has an incredibly powerful **aura**, as well as really good magic experience from being trained for six years by **Elysia The Enchanter** herself.

## Power

Offensive attacks:

* Moonstrike; A strike of Castra's faithful **Moon Sword**.
* Moonbeam; Castra can raise the sword above her head and release a beam of light at the victim that does a lot of damage.
* Shooting Stars; A temporary spell that sends down a cluster of 5-10 mini stars that attack the victim with each strike of the sword.
* Supercharged Universal Slam; All of Castra's magical power into one fatal blow of her Moon Sword.
* Crystal Shot; Castra can use her hands to form spiky crystals of different variants that do different things. The Blue Crystal temporarily blinds the enemy, The Pink Crystal makes whatever their standing on sink like quicksand, The Orange Crystal can form with other Orange Crystals that increase in size that does critical damage to the victim.

Defensive attacks:

* Crystal Shield/Grappling Hook; Castra can summon a pastel rainbow crystal shield whenever she needs. It can also transform into a grappling hook.
* Invisibility Potion; Castra can drink an invisibility potion to become invisible. Gifted by **Iris the Potion Elf**.
* Quick Dodge; She can cast a spell of herself to make her dodge things faster, and the magical effect can also dodge things for her.

Special Abilities (via **The Staff of Souls**)

* Soulspeak; The Staff of Souls allows her to go in a dream-like state while she talks to the soul of her choice.
* Magic Increase; Castra can increase her aura/magic amount whenever she wants, but it zaps her total energy in less than seconds.
* Soul Sight; Castra can see where someone's soul is in the world, no matter them being in the sky, underground, or in the darkest corners of the universe. The only exception is **The Souls Final Resting Place**, where she can't see where the soul is but she just knows that the soul is in that area. She remains conscious through all of this.
* Teleport; Castra can teleport to wherever someone's soul is no matter if they're in the sky, underground, or in the darkest corners of the Universe. However, she can't teleport to people's souls that have passed on or are in The Souls Final Resting Place. Take Atena, for example. She can't teleport to them because they're in The Souls Final Resting Place.
* **Aura Eyes**; The ability to read someone's **aura** (Not Using The Staff Of Souls).

## Relationships

### Cora

Cora was the first person she met in Atena's Planet, and they formed an instant bond. Cora went wherever Castar went, and the two eventually confessed their love and started dating.

### Terra

Castra thinks that Terra means business, and she is good friends with Terra; but they stopped talking for a while.

### Atena

Atena is eternally grateful for Castra freeing her soul, an Castra still thinks highly of Atena.

### Nephaline

Castra and Nephaline are really good friends, and Castra is highly thankful of her gift from Nephaline, The Staff of Souls.

### The First Gods

Castra and **The First Gods** are sworn enemies, even in the afterlife.

## Trivia

* Castra was originally going to be named 'Selina', but that was kind of similar to 'sea', and Cordelia is the Goddess of the sea, so her name was changed to 'Castra'.
* The name Castra means 'Roman Fortress', but **KermieTheFrog** did not know that when choosing the name.
* KermieTheFrog chose Castra's name because it sounded elegant, not because of the meaning.
* Castra is also technically Atena's child because Atena's Magic passed on into her, so that also means that Castra is technically related to all of **The Minor Gods** as well.
* Castra is going to give atena's Planet an actual name in the future, instead of people referring to it as just 'Atena's Planet'.
* The new name for Atena's planet will most likely be 'Athena', which means the goddess of wisdom and war'. The name will be a symbol for how hard everyone worked to fight fpr the freedom of the planet from The First Gods.
