Few men are more qualified to confirm these things than Asche Stauss; born into a family of soldiers, his parents were often absent from home growing up, leaving him in the care of his older cousins, Camellia and Calypso Romero. Until the point that they left for Vacuo to enter Shade academy, Asche spent much of his free time with his elder cousins, and he has retained contact with them over the years, even as they have started families of their own. As expected, he entered Atlas Combat Academy at the age of 13, doing poorly in combat initially, resulting in regular infirmary trips with broken bones, as his own stubbornness resulted in broken bones as he attempted to continue training matches after his aura depleted. Over time, and with the advent of his semblance, he evolved from a persistent runt to a powerful warrior, eventually mastering hand-to-hand by utilizing his power to distract and disorient. After graduation into Atlas Academy, Asche was grouped into team NTSD under command of Hadrian Nightshade alongside two other students (now deceased). Four years of intense training and near constant missions later, NTSD graduated into the Specialist corps. On an early mission to disband a terrorist cell operating in Mistral, two of his teammates were killed, leaving himself and Hadrian to dispose of their bodies to avoid discovery and complete the assignment alone; this early tragedy set a tone for their career, with their specific skills often leading to assignment on deniable-ops inside the other three kingdoms. Personality: A very stoic and grimm man, not very good at seeing the positives in life. Follows a greater-good philosophy and is more than willing to do what he deems necessary to ensure the survival of the four kingdoms. Has a soft spot for children and their parents, as they remind him of why he performs the work that he does.

Still maintains contact and occasionally visits their family while on break between assignments.
