Yes, please tell us about Asha! I would like to ask 2, 4, 9, 36, 50, 58!
Sorry, this ended up being kind of long:
[2] How does their social personality differ from how they act when they’re alone?
In public, she'll either be the aloof Tremere, using what she jokingly calls her “Tremere voice,” or she'll be the more relaxed, casual one who doesn't care what others think of her (she actually does, but she just acts like she doesn't). If someone tries to embarrass or belittle her, she likes to surprise them by agreeing with them and then secretly taking revenge later. She's most likely to be more casual when around other Kindred when there is another Tremere present. She will allow the other Tremere to be the cold one, while she will come across as more warm and easier to talk to. Her laughter is usually restricted to polite chuckles, but sometimes she will genuinely laugh even when she's trying not to, like the time a clueless thinblood tried to use Dominate on her. Sometimes she will use both voices in the same setting. For example, she's in a small group of Kindred at an Elysium event held by the Prince. She casually makes a comment or two, establishes that she's an easygoing Tremere, but then a non-Tremere jokingly asks about learning Thaumaturgy Blood Sorcery, and she drops the casual act to voice a very stern “Absolutely not” or “No.”
Around her apprentices, she likes to act as the helpful mentor. She is kind to them, but she does warn that if you take advantage of her kindness, then she will not be kind to you anymore. She doesn't get outwardly angry at them often, but anyone who has seen her angry will not want to anger her ever again.
To any neonate, she will give out helpful advice. Sometimes she will even give advice that if followed may actually help someone she is trying to lure into a trap or manipulate. However, often, they don't listen. In the end, when they realize that she has tricked them, she will often state that she warned them many times. They just chose not to follow her advice.
Alone, she has a sense of humor and is generally relaxed. She swears a lot more than she would in public. She doesn't have to be a Tremere, or project any sort of image. She can just be herself. Sometimes she'll get lost in her projects. When that happens, the apprentices joke that the more unruly her hair becomes, the deeper she is buried in a project. In one particular instance, she stayed in the basement all night for weeks, only emerging to head to her bedroom to sleep, and they watched as her hair got progressively more chaotic as it freed itself from the messy bun she had put it in when she started the project. She also loves music, so sometimes if she needs to unwind, she will take some time away from others and listen to her favorite songs/bands.
[4] How physically and emotionally affectionate they are?
She isn't very openly affectionate. She will tell her sire how much it means to her that he chose to embrace her. When they are able to see each other in person, in public they will stand next to each other and touch fingertips, her sire sometimes taking off his glove. The most they will do in public is a quick grasp of each others hands. In private, they will hold arms and Asha will receive a, not really a kiss, but more like a press of his lips, on her forehead.
She doesn't have many friends, but there is one (a non-Tremere) that she will hug, plus they are occasional lovers. He is just about the only one that she will admit her deeper emotions to.
[9] What is their love language?
To those she loves, she will make amulets for protection or, if they're a Tremere, to help them with a skill they are trying to master. She will also give books to friends and the occasional artifact if she feels it is ideal for them. There is one friend she will send music to if it reminds her of them.
[36] Do they own items that have sentimental value?
Yes. There is the amulet given to her by her sire when she was a neonate. Also, the claw that was given to her by a friend that she enchanted, and a book given to her by that same friend. She also keeps an ugly green backpack with pink hearts in a cupboard. It was one of the first items she bought as a fledgling, and she always hated it, but it reminds her of her early nights.
[50] What are they really good and really bad at?
She is very good at sorcery in general, especially working with the elements and blood. She is good at fighting, especially with a sword. She is also good at putting on whatever mask is needed for the occasion.
She is bad at anything too emotional and being close to others. She can be extremely disorganized, but she somehow doesn't lose things often. She is very bad at letting things go and can hold major grudges.
She used to be bad at self-discipline and memorization, but her sire taught her these things, even if it wasn't very pleasant.
[58] In the situation where they had to choose, would they rather stay loyal to their morals or to people they love?
She will stay loyal to her morals and Clan Tremere. If she will lose someone because of a conflict between the two, she always chooses her clan, but she tries her best to bend her interpretation of her responsibilities in order to not have to betray anyone she cares about. For example, one of her friends outside of Clan Tremere knows basic Thaumaturgy. Usually, she would kill anyone who admitted this, or most likely manipulate events to lead them to their final death, since she can't go around outright killing most of the time. But she chooses to ignore this fact about her friend. If she had direct orders to destroy them, then she would. She'd be very upset about it, though.
