ASKELADD
CANON NAME Askeladd (Lucius Artorius Castus)
CANON POINT Season 1, Episode 24: End of Prologue
AGE 44
CHARACTER PRONOUNS he/him
STARSEED TYPE Windsong
PLAYED BY Ariel
Askeladd, real name “Lucius Artorius Castus”, was a Welsh-Danish Warlord who commanded a mercenary band of bloodthirsty Vikings by which the main protagonist, Thorfinn, followed for over a decade. He's a descendant of the legendary Roman King, by which he was named after, through his mother’s side. Askeladd was named after the Great King by his mother who idolized King Artorius and always claimed he would come save them from slavery. His nickname of “Askeladd'' is loosely based on the Norwegian story of “The Ashen Lad”, as he was constantly covered in ash thanks to the various jobs he did as a child slave.
IC Permissions
  • PHYSICAL AFFECTION: Askeladd is a little standoffish at times but don’t let that deter your characters from being affectionate. If he likes you, he might return the affection but that’s only if he likes you.
  • PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: Feel free to attack/fight him! Askeladd is a proficient combatant who knows a thing or two about wielding swords. He can also throw daggers and can wield a bow and arrow.
  • RELATIONSHIPS: Askeladd is very much so single but he’s hesitant about mingling. If anyone is interested about playing this out, feel free to talk to me first.
  • MAGICAL INFORMATION: No magical information here! Askeladd is as human as they come.
  • MEDICAL INFORMATION: Besides a couple of nasty scars and gashes across his body, Askeladd is relatively healthy. He's quite strong as well despite his somewhat small stature. Askeladd is a warrior with a rather athletic build.
  • OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: Askeladd gets triggered whenever someone mentions his mother, Lydia, along with his past as a slave. Those are two very taboo topics for him along with the rest of his childhood.
  • OOC Permissions

  • Contact? Feel free to contact me on [plurk.com profile] devillady.
  • Threadjacking? Yes, but within moderation.
  • Fourthwalling? No, thank you.
  • Fighting? Duel to the death? Yes!
    Injuring? Yes, of course but nothing too egregiously heinous.
  • Hugging? Yes
  • Kissing? Yes, go for it but be careful!
  • Killing? Drop me a DM first so we can plot accordingly.

  • Current Abilities
    ━━━★CLAIRVOYENCE
    After gaining a starseed, Askeladd will develop the power of clairvoyance. He'll be able to see beyond the ordinary range of perception and even be able to view bits of pieces of information through paranormal means. Askeladd will also be able to detect certain beings and entities which would be normally undetectable with this power, such as ghosts & spirits. Eventually as this ability progresses, Askeladd will gain the ability to perceive visions from the past, and sometimes the future, by accidentally diving into the memories of those he touches. As a way of limiting this particular ability, he will suffer a crippling migraine that will last 48 hours.


    As mentioned, Askeladd has inherited the power of "clairvoyance" thanks to his Starseed. This ability allows him to psychically perceive sights and visual sensations from past events or locations currently outside of normal human scope. For those who are familiar with the Echo from Final Fantasy XIV, it's a similar ability to that with him being able to see the past of those he touches.

    For brevity's sake, if you're interested in having your character's past be viewed by Askeladd here, please feel out the form below and we'll plot something. I just want to make sure I have people's permission first before embarking upon this plot idea. Thank you!

    Character Name: Self-explanatory
    Canon: Final Fantasy XIV
    Crucial Past Events: His father shooting him, the Calamity… basically anything involving Bahamut is fair game for Askeladd to know. Same with the evens of the Alexander raids and the Omega raids.

    I’m open to other things too, of course, but those are definitely the major ones. Why must he be the side content guy.
    Notable Past Locations: The Magitek Academy and the Ironworks. Specifically the Rhalgr’s Reach location, since that seems to be where he’s settled.
    Notable People: Nero, his father, Gaius, and the Ironworks trio of Biggs, Wedge, and Jessie. There's also the Warrior of Light, of course, but since we don't have one, that's going to need to be kept vague.
