A Slav/Rus woman hailing from Kiev, Asya is servant of the guardian-goddess known as Zorya Polunochnaya, or the Midnight Star. The holy sigil proclaiming this allegiance is usually about Asya's neck. But not always. Some of her work is better achieved with anonymity.

Asya is somewhat above average height for a woman, though not enough to be described as tall. Her hair and complexion are fair, eyes a sea-grey shade. In proper attire, she can easily seem a lovely woman of some aristocrat breeding. Or a devout temple priestess in the raiment of her order. But the mail, sword, and hooded black cloak she wears in the field give her a different demeanor. Especially with her strong will and sense of purpose.
