Aster Aira is part of the Verzsou Triad. Aster is a child of the Firebird, making Aster himself a fire spirit. His relationship with his parent is strained. He is later adopted by the Ophelia. He is the older brother to Neve Winter and the lover of Casimir. His relationship with Casimir establishes the Verzsou Red line of spirits.
Aster is the last of the Triad to leave the reincarnation loop, rescued by his descendant Aletheia 059.
He is the wearer of the garment Bysiri, a sacred dress crafted by the Clarene and Ophelia. He occasionally uses the name Bysiri as well. He wields the rapier Astre while within the loop.
Appearance
In his purest form, Aster is a collection of flames resembling human form. These flames emit no heat unless Aster desires to do so, and he frequently wraps himself around other spirits in his basest form. He is seen curled around Casimir and Aletheia 059 most often. His form has some typically demonic imagery as well, including fangs and curved horns.

In more stable forms, he appears as a freckled red-haired man. Like his sister Neve, he is wiry and tall. He is often seen wearing a gold necklace with crown pendant, hinting at his 'royal' birth to the Firebird-Laetha. He wears both luxurious clothing and more simple casual wear, often only wearing royal silks and colors when interacting with the other spirits in his Triad.
He also appears wearing the holy garment Bysiri. The garment combines both Aster's stable and fire forms, causing him to emit a bright glow. The garment exists in its truest form when worn by him, wrapping Aster in gold and white fabrics and letting Aster don a true crown. The crown necklace Aster wears hints at Bysiri along with his own royal origins.
