Keep the AAPI Heritage Month celebrations going with Tremor the FIRST Asexual character in DC Comics history! She really paved the Way for Asexuals like Conner Hawke to shine.

She's a big deal but I've never seen her play a big role in other series, if you know of some she's in please do let me know I'll check them out and recommend them!

Canon Aces 47/?: Natalie Oscott A Memoir by Lady Trent series by Marie Brennan (2013-2016) *I am uncertain whether that art is Natalie or not

Isabella Camherst: “I am sure you can go further, and find yourself a husband who will support you in your work.”

Natalie Oscott: “Perhaps.” She did not sound convinced. “It is an untenable situation and I know it. One way or another, I must be dependent on someone. If not a husband, then one of my brothers, or--. I cannot ask that of them. but how much less can I ask it of some stranger?”

Isabella: Do you not want a husband? presuming you could find a good one.”

She stood very still; I think she was considering my words. Then she turned to face me, and answered in the tone of one who has never realized her true reply until this moment.

Natalie: No. I don’t.

Isabella: Not for security. But for companionship, or love or---”

Natalie: [blushing] Not for any of those. I welcome the friendship of men, of course. But childbirth is dangerous, and motherhood would demand too much of my time; and I have no interest in the, ah, activity for its own sake. What is left?”

Very little, really. Except, perhaps, for an end to her family’s nagging --- and that could be gotten in more than one way.

***

Natalie: While I do not think this is the life for me -- I miss my bed too much-- it has given me the courage, and I think the freedom, to pursue the life I do want. 

Isabella: What is it?

Natalie: [blushing] “I--- do you remember what i said to you before we left Scirland? About the things I was not interested in?”

Her reddened cheeks directed my memory. She did not want the touch of a man.

Isabella: “Yes, I remember.”

Natalie: While we were in Atuyem, I found out that sometimes co-wives will... provide one another with affection. I have wondered, from time to time, whether that is what I want. But I--- well. Suffice to say that i have tested my theory, and proved it false. I enjoy the company of women a great deal, but I honestly do not think I want anything, ah, more.”

Isabella: I understand, Natalie. And you are welcome to stay with me as long as you please.

[A Memoir of Lady Trent 2: The Tropic of Serpents p. 40-41; 220]

Marie Brennan: Natalie Oscott also has her fans: she’s a spinster by choice (in modern terms, we’d call her asexual) who finds her own passion in engineering.

Canon Aces 84/?: Chrissu (Lee Shorten) It’s Not You, It’s Not Me (2020)

Sex… It’s kinda a waste of time. [Do you think you might be asexual?] I’ve thought about it. Yeah…During my undergrad I took this bullshit love and relationship course. But one day this girl came in… This asexual girl, to give a talk. And she told this anecdote about her high school days, and…This time that…  All her friends were trying to figure out who the hottest guy was. And when it got to her turn, she pointed to the guy with the biggest sweater. Because that’s what she thought it meant. And I don’t think I’m that extreme, but yeah… A lot of what she said about sex made sense to me.
