》― basic information !
powers: 
clairvoyance, prophecy, divination, low-level healing (self & others), ability to converse with deities (gods, goddesses, spirits, personifications, etc. this is limited to those who wish to speak with him, and this ability also leaves him extremely drained the stronger the being is), fortune alteration (for a short amount of time can give himself or others good or bad luck and/or fortune)

weaknesses:
when in his "dazed" state he is completely unaware of the things happening around his physical body and is thus extremely vulnerable in that moment, mortal injuries, allergic to deadly nightshade and cranberries (first one is more of a godly weakness, second is a human allergy response), faulty memory

occupation(s):
oracle, fortune teller, digital artist

godly parentage:
tyche - goddess of fortune, chance, providence & fate
 
》― history !
aster is a bit of a sorry case of a demigod. somewhere within his bloodline the goddess tyche bore children with his ancestor, thus gifting their offspring with abilities related to fortune and fate. some were strong and powerful, others had barely an inkling of godly blood in them. aster is somewhere in the middle, extremely powerful in the sense of being able to see and predict so much, but at the same time the cost is heavy and using his powers leaves him so very vulnerable. it's no wonder he's gone a bit mad, losing his mind somewhere among the years of being an unwilling, and then reluctantly willing oracle. he's physically lived in lunaria his whole life, and thankfully, somehow managed becoming useful to the right people to give him something of a job as an official oracle.

*the more detailed version (pretty version to come :'))
the first time aster "went away" he was four years old. he had been playing with his toys in the living room, his mother cooking dinner, when his eyes went glassy and his body still. his mother, of course, freaked out when she found her son unresponsive, eyes open and unblinking, milky white and staring off into the distance. the episode only lasted about 30 seconds, but there was something different about aster when he "returned" to himself.

"...mama?"
"oh my gods, i'm so glad you're okay."
"where did you go, mama?"
"i'm right here, aster."
"you were gone. i couldn't find you."
"it's okay, i'm here now."

his mother didn't understand what was happening at the time. while to her aster had been in a dazed state for less than a minute, to aster himself he had been gone for almost a month, wandering a vast desert for days until he collapsed, and woke up inside his living room. unbeknownst to the both of them, was that aster's godly ancestry was finally starting to make itself known. his mother never expected this, since this part of him stems from his father's side, a man he never knew. over the following years aster continued to have more frequent "episodes" in which he would appear to shut down, gaze unfocused, body completely frozen. the longer he stayed that way, the more different he was when he returned. eventually, he one day told his mother exactly what was happening. it wasn't an illness, but a twisted gift - the ability to not only see, but experience the past and the future, being granted knowledge beyond the time and space in which he was born into, delving into the stream of fate itself. he was physically eight at that point, but mentally... he had lost track of the years as they went by. the toll it took on his mother was too great, as she mourned the young son she never really had, for aster was already much older than her, and would continue to be that way even if he died before she did. she couldn't take it, eventually leaving him to foster care. she kissed his forehead, tears dripping into his hair, and walked away. at this point aster can't remember if he resented her or not as he watched her leave. he doesn't think he did. still so small in body, and he could more than understand the dept of her grief. aster never was adopted, staying at the foster facility where he had been dropped off for the next 10 years. once he was too old to stay any longer, he was forced to adapt, but it's hard to maintain a normal life, normal relationships, normal existence, when you don't know the next time you'll be ripped from your body and dropped somewhere else for who knows how long. he could be having a conversation with someone, fall into a trance for 10 minutes, and suddenly for him it's been almost two years since that conversation and he barely remembers them. eventually, aster was able to scrape together something of a living by using his so-called gifts in order to give advice and predict people's futures, and eventually landing a position as mystiq institute's resident oracle. being partially his own boss means he can schedule himself around most of his episodes, though he never knows when the next one will come. he's a bit weird, and scatter-brained, but that's par the course for someone who lost his mind somewhere across time and space so many eons ago.
》― personality & details  !
random ideas floating around in my head ;

+ ok so basically asteroth has abilities he can control, and an ability he has no control over. he's in charge of using his: clairvoyance, divination, low-level healing, conversing with gods ability & good/bad fortune granting. for his prophecy ability, when he calls on it naturally he's able to grab bits and pieces of prophecy (you know, of the cryptic poetic bull type that needs to be interpreted). when this prophetic ability takes hold of him however, this is what leads to his "episodes" as mentioned above. during these episodes asteroth's physical body remains, but his soul/mind becomes untethered from this plain of existence. he is randomly dropped into any time/place, in the past or the present or the future, for an indefinite amount of time. he's like a spirit with the ability to touch objects and speak with people in these instances, and normal things that would affect him in his physical body can also affect him. he can "die" as well, but bc it is his soul/mind, he doesn't actually die, and merely returns to his body. because it is so random and unpredictable, asteroth cannot plan for each individual episode. just as well, there's no way to tell if the things he's seeing/experiencing are super important prophetic/fate instances, or small ones of minor consequence to the path of destiny. on a very important note one second of time in lunaria as normal, is one day for him wherever he's been dropped. so, a full minute would be 60 days to him, ten minutes would be 600 days, a full hour would be almost 10 years, etc.

+ since he's had so many episodes, varying in length over the years, asteroth doesn't know how old he is mentally at this point. through use of a calendar in this plain of existence/time he knows that his physical body is only 26.

+ although his full first name is asteroth, he typically goes by "aster" instead as a nickname. he prefers it over his full name.

+ aster has hundreds of notebooks, possibly close to a thousand at this point, filled to the brim with manic thoughts and prophecies and fleeting attempts to remember anyone who's ever been important to him. his most prized notebook is the very first one he ever started writing in as a very young child. it is battered and worn, the pages soft from being turned so often. he can see the transition of his childlike handwriting to that of a steady hand, all the descriptions of his mother that he's tried to remember. he rereads this notebook again and again, so that he doesn't forget her. (he aches to see her, knows she's still out there now, but he also knows she does not want to see him) (as for more about this habit, aster writes down about anyone he's ever talked to, friend or foe or stranger, bc as the years continue to build up in his mind he forgets things more and more easily)

+ aster's allergy to deadly nightshade (also known as belladona) is considered more of a supernatural/godly weakness than an actual medical allergy. being around the plant itself is fine, but he cannot touch it or else he starts getting light-headed, dizzy, confused, etc. the most dangerous form is when the plant is being burnt/used for incense. if he's around and it's floating in the air, it sends him into a seizure-like state, shorting out his powers for several days, and leaving him both weak and lethargic.

+ as for his cranberry allergy that's just from his human side. cranberries will send him into anaphylaxis where he has trouble breathing, his heart beats extremely fast, he gets extremely dizzy and can potentially pass out, etc. he does have an epipen that he tries to remember to carry on him at all times

+ he's got a bit of a reputation for being weird, scatter-brained, mad, "crazy," eccentric, etc. his mental state has been shredded so many times there's no way to put the tatters back into something solid or together. sometimes conversation with him can be extremely confusing as he jumps from one thing to the next, but he really does try not to do so. his bedroom is a strange mix of all the things he likes, random knick-knacks, posters, clothes, jewelry, music, etc. etc. his sense of fashion is so bad it can still look good lol

+ there have been extremely dark times for aster, and he's gone through a lot of ed up . he's good at pretending he hasn't, most of the time. (i lost track of thought i can't remember where i was going with this but i'll keep it here for now)

+ he can come off as a bit childlike, but he is nowhere near innocent or naive, and has not been for a long, long time. pls don't mistake his sometimes silly and kid like behavior for him being an actual kid.

+ his favorite food is anything sweet and fried (funnel cake, deep fried oreos, beignets, donuts, etc.)
