Asseylum li Britannia (アシテリウム・リ・ブリタニア, Ashiteriumu Ri Buritania?) is the First Princess of the Holy Roman Empire. She is a fourth-generation Genestella as well as one of the few Genestella able to perform magic spells, known as Stregas. She is the current student council president of Queenvail Girls' Academy.
Background
Asseylum li Britannia is the eldest daughter of Nero el Britannia and Alexia li Britannia. She is the Crown Princess of the Holy Roman Empire, an empire stretching across the remains of Europe following the Invertia Incident with London of the British Isles as their capital. She was raised with much respect considering that her father rules an empire that controls half of the world with the Integrated Enterprise Foundation governing the other half.
Asseylum was a powerful child. When she turned four, she found out that she had the ability to manipulate prana to create spells that induce fire. As such, she was categorized in an extreme minority of Genestella: the Strega. A witch of fire, specifically blue fire (although she could produce normal-colored flames), Asseylum was a star. This combined with the fact that she loved to sing and had a soul-rendering voice, prompted her parents to begin dressing her in the arts of being a global artist.
It took her several years, considering her age, but she managed to immediately hit it off. She began a world tour at just the age of ten, going first to Athens. After finishing said world tour, the Holy Roman Empire received an invitation from the Integrated Enterprise Foundation, the current power in the world with the most influence. That invitation stated that Asseylum li Britannia, the Crown Princess, must go to the island of Asterisk to be educated. The stated reason for this is that Asseylum is a Genestella and on top of that, one of the 1.8% of Genestella that can manipulate mana through her flesh and blood, a Strega. Asseylum went willingly, vowing that one day she will bite back against the Foundation. She was then sent to Japan as a very special transfer student.
Due to her background and standing, she was entered into the Queenvail Girls’ Academy. Here, she immediately began to make a name for herself. For example, on the first day, she accidentally angered Queenvail’s Rank #9. In retaliation, the Page One demanded a duel from Asseylum, thinking she could easily smash a first-year, especially a first year in junior high. However, Asseylum managed to prevail in her duel completely weaponless, defeating her magnificently. She went from unknown to Rank #18. The alias of Flame Dragon Queen spread quickly, like fires igniting entire swaths of forest.
When the first semester was over, the former student council president, Alexia Reindhardt, scouted out the princess. With her and her friends in the student council graduating, it would leave many blank spots in the ranks of the Page Ones. Asseylum, being a Rank #18 at that time, became the Rank #1 after she narrowly won a duel against Alexia. Now that she was sure that Queenvail would be in good hands, Alexia graduated, leaving the junior high division first-year student as the Rank #1 and the Student Council President of Queenvail Girls’ Academy.
Personality
Asseylum has three major character traits that make her stand out, as the Crown Princess as well as a normal girl. The first of these is her infinite patience and kindness. Raised as a Crown Princess, Asseylum was showered with all kinds of kindness and servitude from her parents and her subjects. Normally, this sort of praise would go to a girl’s head, making her extremely haughty and generally unlikeable. However, Asseylum refused to allow this to meddle with her mind. Instead of growing prideful, she grew the merit of patience. She is kind to children as well as her elders. However, she has a principle: kindness is given not taken. She will give respect to everyone, even if they are being disrespectful in return.
The second aspect of her personality is her absolute loathing for lies. She wants nothing but the truth. And nothing less. The only time Asseylum gets easily angered is if a person lies to her and she discovers the lie. She is very unforgiving of untrustworthy people. She could easily tip to her other, highly sadistic personality (although this personality comes out at times when she uses highly potent magic).
The third aspect of her personality is her other persona. Asseylum suffers from dissociative personality disorder, split-personality disorder. She has the tendency to randomly swap from her endlessly kind normal persona to that of a blood-sucking sadist that is mentally insane although retains enough sanity to formulate words as well as plans. This personality is much cruder and far less kind. In this state, Selena is out for blood. Although she doesn’t actually kill, she does like to spill blood. This side of her personifies the side of a ruthless king on the battlefield, leaving nothing behind but a trail of corpses.
Asseylum’s dissociative identity disorder is triggered mainly by two occurrences. The first one is dishonesty. The second is using magic. She has the chance of going berserk if she uses too much prana in her magic, although this doesn’t apply to when she uses her Siren Song spell. She also has a chance of tipping if anyone makes a rude comment about women and girls along with being ignored too much. As an idol, she gets a lot of attention. If suddenly deprived of it, she will begin to feel lonely and start to long for attention again which is a weakness her other personality could exploit.
Appearance
Asseylum is an extremely beautiful flower. When she was first enrolled into Queenvale, she unwillingly expressed herself (the problem of having doting parents) as the powerful Holy Roman Empire’s Crown Princess. She had piercing gold eyes, the color of lightning, along with sky blue hair that reached just short of waist-length. In accordance with the customs of the local area, she presented herself wearing traditional Japanese garb. Her kimono matched the color of her hair, blue, with the sleeves as well as the front having a light blue tone while the end is pure white.
Asseylum’s Queenvail uniform consists of a pure white T-shirt with a sleeveless beige sweater. Her school badge is pinned on the sweater, above her left breast. She has a small string that acts as a tie on her shirt. She also wears a gray skirt that reaches down to where her onyx black thigh-high stockings stop on her legs. She wears white running shoes. Although she does have other uniforms, she prefers to use this uniform.
Abilities
Like all other Genestella, Asseylum has highly enhanced physical abilities. She could perform deeds that normal humans consider 'superhuman' with ease. As a Strega, she has absolute command over the element of fire. Her techniques are named after mythological creatures. Her signature technique is a technique that shares the same name with her alias: Flame Dragon Queen.
Flame Dragon Queen
The Flame Dragon Queen is a technique that allows Asseylum to manipulate blue fire, compared to the normal orange flames she could produce. The difference between these flames and her normal fire is their inability to be extinguished by normal means. Only she herself can extinguish her own fire and because of this, she is immune to the flames. If she wasn’t immune, she wouldn’t be able to weaponize it, let alone use the second stage of the technique.
She could also use this fire as a cloak, an avatar that takes the shape of a dragon with herself functioning as its heart. In this form, she is basically invincible. Her cloak sports a temperature of 7,000 Kelvin, 12,140 Fahrenheit. The reason why it is invincible is that of this abnormally high temperature. The most heat-resistant metal, tungsten, would vaporize instantly upon contact, let alone other weapons. Luxes can maintain contact with the fire, however, they will not be able to resist having their cores melted. On the other hand, Orga Luxes will be able to cut directly through the barrier. This weakness was nullified when Asseylum obtained her Orga Lux.
The main drawback of this is the drain that it places on Asseylum. Normally, she would only resort to the Flame Dragon Queen if she cannot put down an opponent normally with her normal abilities. She could only really utilize the Flame Dragon Queen at full power for five minutes at a time. She is then left heavily drained in which she needs to rest for one full day in order to regain full strength. After obtaining her Orga Lux, her limit was increased to fifteen minutes although she still shares the same backlash.
Resuscitating Phoenix Elegy
A spell of healing, Resuscitating Phoenix Elegy calls on fire the color of mercury. These flames have extensive healing properties. Asseylum could use these to perform emergency procedures. The plus side of this fire is that it can serve as both an anesthetic and an incredibly high boost to a Genestella’s already high healing abilities. This technique consumes both Asseylum’s prana and the Genestella’s prana to work properly. When used on normal humans who have no prana whatsoever, the toll that is consumed is, instead, a lowering of the Hayflick Limit, the natural limit placed on the body’s cellular division (which is 50 times).
Siren Song
This is the most versatile of Asseylum’s magic spells. It is the manipulation of sound waves, using her voice as a medium. As an idol, this magic was, at first, uncontrollable. However, it was harmless. This magic is the most versatile because it has a broad array of effects. It could induce powerful and convincing hallucinations. It could also be used as a means of suggesting actions. Depending on the adversary’s understanding of Strega abilities, the commands given by Asseylum could have an absolute grip on them or can be resisted. The more prana Asseylum pours into her voice, the more powerful her suggestions will become. The same instance occurs when she is using her voice in a hallucination-inducing tune: the more prana used, the faster the illusion takes hold and the harder it is to break out.
