Editing Character:Astrid (section)

==Backgrounds==


===Artifact 4===<br>
The Silver Lady's Embrace was originally the battlegear of a first age Waxing Moon priestess, but fell into Astrid's hands as an unexpected result of her Testing.  Ordinarly takes the form of a thick and uncomfortable plate of moonsilver, through the process of attunement, the metal spreads out to cover the wearer in a thin, incredibly flexible layer of armor from the base of the head to toe, bearing a number of auspicious mandalas which emit silvery sparks when charged.

Counts as Moonsilver Articulated Plate from the core, with the following additions<br>
--Soak values are increased by an extra 2 points<br>
--No Fatigue Value<br>
--One Hearthstone Socket<br>
--For the cost of 3 motes per scene, the armor may allow the user to effect immaterial beings and objects.

===Resources 2===<br>
Being the daughter of merchants, even though money's a bit tight in comparison, Astrid is a sufficiently shrewd bargainer that she manages to maintain a small basis of money to fund her travels, through the collection of herbs, rare materials, and scavenging off of fallen foes (Both supernatural and mundane)

===Reputation 2===<br>
The only thing that's kept Astrid from being a reknowned hero of the Silver Pact is her solid disinterest in their usual politics, her trials had yielded a remarkably unexpected windfall for the powers that be, and she's since made a name for herself fending off various undesirables from other areas of Creation.

===Solar Bond 3===<br>
... It's a secret!

===Manse 3===<br>
The Lost Sanctuary of Redoak was a bit of an irritant for the Silver Pact of the region.  Sufficiently secure to styme the efforts of the Lunars in the area to capture it, and not quite powerful or important enough to draw the attention of an elder.  It was very surprising when Astrid's combination of inherent genius and physical superiority lead to her reaching the Hearthroom and attuning to the place.  As such, she was allowed to keep most of the treasure found within.<br>
