Esther - … - … - Asteria - Deborah Ann Woll - TAKEN
“Close your eyes and drift into the darkness.”
Asteria was the titan goddess of the oracles, stars and prophecies of the night, including prophetic dreams, necromancies and the reading of the stars (astrology). Being the daughter of the God Coeus and Goddess Phoebe who were both original Titans born from chaos, she was a second generation titaness. Her sleeping patterns are rather erratic, as she cannot control the dreams she has which are so realistic, she finds it difficult to pull herself out of it. She views her confusing and unhelpful dreams as a curse, rather than a gift. Her dreams seem to infer occurrences of the future, but she is always unsure of whether they will come to pass or not. But the one talent she does enjoy, is being the oracle of night, she is able to send prophetic dreams and messages unto others. She dwells in the realm of night amongst the stars and dreams, and also among the dead.
Asteria has only ever loved one man, Perses the God of Destruction. Often, when she couldn’t sleep, she would stare at the sky and watch Perses’ stars, mesmerised by their beauty. When Zeus attempted to sexually pursue her and her sister Leto, Asteria fled and found refuge in throwing herself in the ocean, but not before transforming into a quail. Though her sister failed to flee Zach’s attempts and Hera’s undeniable wrath and jealousy, Asteria was determined and found her escape — only transforming back to her usual form when she deemed it safe. Soon after, Perses confessed his love for her, and the two married and gave birth to their daughter, Hecate.
You Have To Build A Future
Asteria had always been loyal to her uncle, and that he knew. When she came down to Earth as a human, she remained on his side — helping to prevent the gods and goddesses from knowing their pasts. She felt it her responsibility to do so, especially after what Zeus did to her in the past. She never wanted to have to run from the man again, nor did she want her sister having to deal with Hera’s wrath, either. She thought it best to keep the gods and goddesses away from them for as long as possible.
But upon seeing her daughter on earth, she realized what a mistake it was being away from her daughter, and leaving the goddess to suffer down on earth. Being the determined, independent woman Asteria is, she decided to go against Cronos’ plans, but in secret, and soon began sending dreams to the gods and goddesses in hopes of reminding them of who they are. She does not work for anyone, she decides her own fate and now believes the Gods should be able to decide theirs too.
1. She secretly sends prophetic dreams to all the gods on a regular basis. She sends Hecate the most dreams.
2. She does not experience thirst and hunger just like the rest of the titans.
3. She attempts to steer clear of Zeus and Hera.
4. She is stubborn, indifferent at times, and quite determined to learn ways of being a human. She assimilates quite well with them.
5. She poses as a rich, young woman in no need of a job.
