I'm sorry guys. I had to put a watermark on this, cause someone has stolen my work, abusing of my good faith. I though that no one would use with bad intentions. Damn brat.

I've never done her wearing the Serpens cloth, so here it is.
I hope this can somehow help the ones who are planning to join my lil contest, as reference, ya know :meow:


Enjoy! :heart:


_______________________________________________________________


Name: Astarte
Age: 20
Cloth: Serpens
Sign: Aries
Personality: Dedicated, proud, quiet, sometimes agressive, very loyal to the ones she loves.
Cosmo Property: Electricity.
Skills: High level of Teleportation.


Attacks:

Starchaser: Uses her Teleport hability around to escape or trick and confuse the enemy, leaving a trace of a pale blue light everywhere she passes through (though the enemy can't see her, since she's fast like a thunder).

Stellar Wrath: It's her hability of producing electricity from her cosmo. She conduce the electricity with her hands, controlling it's voltage. This can simply make a person faint or even kill it. This attack can be used along with Starchaser by giving the enemy three offensive blows. These three blows are known as Alnitak, Alnilam and Mintaka, the three stars that compose the Orion's Belt in the constallation of the same name.

*Venom Claws: Using her psychic powers she hits the enemy by creating an illusion which is able to awake the person worst fears, emotionaly destructuring it, and then turning her enemy into an easy target for some real damage.

* Asteria haven't developed this attack yet.


Story:

Her parents, both Saints, died in battle in the name of Athena when she was just a little girl. She was innocent and barely understood why they've died for. And so she was adopted by an old lemurian man, very wise, an ex Saint. He kept his cloth hidden for a long, long time, disgusted with all that suffering and blood himself had bloodshed through his life, until the day he found Astarte. She was like a gift from the Gods to him, and she gave him strenght to live on more a few years. The time passed and she grew up, always curious and determinated to follow her parents steps, even though she was always discouraged by her adoptive father. They lived in one of the village's that surrounded the Sanctuary, which have influenced her wish of being a Saint too. One day the old man's cloth claimed to be used again, when the signs of the Holy War have shown and he knew it was about to begin once more. But the man was old and tired to fight, but not to teach; so he decided to train Astarte to go in his place, since that was her wish too and he couldn't fight her strong will.
Secretly, she was encouraged too by her met with a little masked boy named Deuteros who was a shadow in the Sanctuary, some years ago. She saw him always suffering and wanted to gain her father's cloth and the other person's respect, so she could somehow help Deuteros. They've made a promisse to each other, to become stronger and be always together, even if they were meeting in secret. She started to love him without noticing it, without never telling it. He was her strenght to move on, but then one day he simply vanished along with Aspros, his twin brother, the Gemini Saint. From this day on, she could never found her true strenght to fight again, since her heart was filled up with angry and regret.

Author's notes:

:bulletblue: Astarte's 20, and in this 'present' time she's how I describe her in this lil story, but still she wants to find Deuteros and make things clear, or else she'll never be able to fight with all of her true power and pure heart. That's why she's considered by me weaker than her next reicarnation, Asteria.

:bulletblue: This 'poisoned heart' thing is one of the details I would like to put here, since her cloth is Serpens.
His adoptive father was kinda affected by the Cloth's aura, but before he'd go insane, he just stop fighting.
It's not like the Cloth tends to the dark side, but how it test it's user, who have to overcome their worst feelings and use this rage against the evil forces, and then become it's true owner. It's like all of those years she have fought wearing the cloth, she wasn't really wearing nothing but a heavy souless piece of metal that could only make her feel terribly sad.


Aaaand, the story goes on!


What would have happend to her? Will she truly own the power of the Serpens? Will she find and forgive Deuteros? TA-DA... Let your imagination run out!

A beautiful picture. I like her hair. Did you name her after the lunar goddess Astarte?

Ahm... Lunar Goddess Astarte? Is this from some serie or something? Because Astarte may be a goddess, but she's reffered as the same divinity in many eras. She's called Hera of Afrodite, Ishtar and also a giant serpent :xD:
