Picaro ability: The power to gain significant information about a person simply by painting them. When painting a person Asra's Picaro ability takes control and makes her subconsciously add imagery and symbolism into the portrait that she would of never known about. The imagery can give her information about their personality, desires, goals, or perhaps even relationships. To other people these signs are almost impossible to read however and nobody would know she even gleaned that information simply by painting them. Sexual mannerisms: Asra is a virgin and usually doesn't think much about sex. She'd be pretty open to most casual sex types and wouldn't mind being bottom or top. Backstory: Asra was raised in an orphanage her own parents not wanting to raise her. As such she never knew anything about her family. She felt lost during most of her life but found some sollace in art. She started painting people for a living and found a purpose in her depictions of others. She never stayed in one place, always travelling and exploring new towns. She was a common sight in bars, often gambling or simply getting drunk. After that Asra never cared for goals or objectives in life. She had a path to walk, and that path didn't require an endpoint. She was content to cruise through life without getting tangled in politics or conspiracies that could distract her from her work. That was until she became a Picaro. The mark appeared at a bad time, she was in amongst a crowd peddling her wares when it emerged on her hand and naturally chaos ensued. Luckily for her she was nimble enough to escape and promptly fled far away. Rumours would spread of course. However she was careful who she talked to and thus eventually the hunters moved onto targets they had more information about. On the run she met Rex, a scrawny dog that decided to follow her everywhere. The two became a pair and Asra took him on her adventures, however she always made sure never to slip up and reveal her true Picaro identity to anyone on her travels.
