» Personality «
Asher is at the whim of his master; whatever he is assigned to do, he must obey no matter what his true feelings are about the matter. Because of this, Asher constantly walks the line between what is morally right and what he must do to survive. If Asher were to disobey his master, he would get in severe trouble, the nature of which is unknown to even Asher. He has only crossed his master in a small manner, by disagreeing with his master’s wishes, which has caused great grief to find the hellhound. Despite all of this, Asher is fearless in his ambitious goals. He truly believes that his master will grant all of his wishes as long as he goes through with what he is supposed to.
» Biography «
Asher has only ever known a life in which he was tasked to obey his master. As far as he can remember, he was brought into existence in order to do whatever his master wanted. Asher was given his name due to his dark fur that is the color of ashes; as a mundane, Asher’s coloring is more close to a burning fire. Asher enjoys his mundane form and would give anything to be able to live as a mortal forever. But he is under a contract he wasn’t aware he signed. In truth, Asher was, at some point, a mundane. He was twenty years old when he became very sick. Every doctor he went to had no idea what was the cause of his illness but that was only because in the time era in which Asher was mortal, little was known about the cancer that would take his life. In an act of desperation, Asher summoned a pair of demons to save his life. What he didn’t know was that he would become immortal but at a price. Asher would no longer walk the mortal plane and wear the flesh of a mundane. He would become the lap dog of the demons he summoned, forever forced to obey their every command. And that’s just what he did.
It was a normal Sunday afternoon when Asher was roaming around the city as he so often did. As he was rounding a corner, a familiar voice boomed in his head. It was his demon master, setting Asher on yet another task that he had no choice but to go through with. If Asher had a choice, he was sure that he would have turned around and gone somewhere—anywhere—else. But because he didn’t, Asher made his way to Lilith Roth’s house. The mission was simple, destroy the enemy. Asher wasn’t privy to the details and didn’t dare to ask.
Unbeknownst to Asher, his master changed his memories to make him think he was a hero. As Asher was walking towards the Roth residence, he heard yelling and immediately ran towards the source with the intention of helping. Completely unaware that he was being controlled by his master, Asher ran without a blink of fear in his eyes. When he arrived at his destination, he could sense that there was something seriously wrong. A tall, lanky man was throwing things everywhere as a blonde woman screamed at him. His eyes were red with blood, his skin pale, and he seemed maddened. When Asher attempted to get the man to calm down, the man lunged at him. It was a split second reaction, something you don’t think of doing. In order to defend himself, Asher’s powers kicked in and within seconds, Asher was on top of the man. Whether out of fear or protection, Lilith freaked out and ended up setting fire to the carpet. This resulted in the man bursting into flame, lighting the house with him. Asher could do nothing but run out and try to piece everything together. But that would prove to be an impossible task, something that he would never be able to do. In that moment, Asher knew what he had done; he had just murdered the man. Whether accident or not—it was murder. In an instant, Asher took off, never to look back again.
But he would not run away. Inevitably, Asher found himself back to his masters. Even though he wished with every core of his being to go somewhere else, he still found himself back where he belonged. Because he was so distraught about the situation, Asher’s master altered his perception of the scenario. It was easier for Asher to believe that what he had done was a mere accident; that he hadn’t intended to be a murderer. Despite being the dog of a demon, Asher’s moral compass was always on point. It was hard for him to do bad things and far easier to believe that his actions were for the better.
