Personality: eternally curious, Astra is always poking her nose into things that don't concern her, then finding some way she can turn whatever it is to her advantage. If not she’ll lose interest fast then go find something else to amuse her. This is Astra in a nutshell. Shell flitter about the school halls, the cafeteria, outside the dorms, wherever there is something entertaining to be had. If she can’t find anything to pipe her curiosity, then she’ll create her own amusement by playing pranks on unsuspecting students. She’ll keep away from the teachers though; she knows well enough any prank done on them could backfire. Badly. (She wants to get good grades, ya know).
Her pranks range from generally annoying (throwing small objects at the back of your head), very incontinent (stealing random objects from you), to a giant pain in the a** (getting you lost). There is the rare occasion that she will be malicious enough that her prank will cause injury, but in this case you would have had to greatly offend her. Generally speaking though, it would be hard to get on her bad side.
As for social interactions, she isn’t the most social of people, but she isn’t recluse either. If you can get her attention with something interesting, she’ll spare the time to hang around you. If she suddenly disappears or ditches you, don’t take it too personally; she’s just heard about something cool that’s happening somewhere else, so she’s gone to check it out. You could say she has a very short attention span.
One thing to note about our friend here is that she’s…well, kinda short…okay, she’s short…alright, she’s really short, As in, Her head only comes up to your waist short. A pet annoyance of hers especially when she almost gets trampled just trying to get to her locker. Ahh, the drawbacks of being a fairy…Due to this, It’s generally not a good idea to remind her of how tall she is, as she’ll make sure you’ll regret doing so.
likes: Stealing things, butting into other people’s business, playing pranks, sweet foods, flowers, Dislikes: People saying she's short, people trying to stomp on her or touch her wings/antennae. St johns wart/ 4 leaf clovers (see below in extras). St Patricks day (due to the amount of 4 leaf clovers about)
Why did they enroll at the academy? The main reason Astra has enrolled is because she wants other monsters to take her seriously. Sure, she can scare the pants of a human if she really wanted to, but when she goes off to brag to someone they usually just laugh and point at her wings, saying how the heck could a ‘itty bitty widdle fairy scare anyone?’. The second reason is so she can learn to utilize her shape shifting abilities much more effecintly. Lastly…why the hell not? A school full of all kinds of horrible, disgusting, and scary creatures? Oh what fun to be had!
Since Astra has become a fully fledged demon, she cannot wield a FEAR based weapon anymore. The staff, however, has changed itself into a small tree that stays in a secret place. She cannot summon the tree, but she can use parts of it such as the leaves, fruits, and even it's roots in battle or everyday use.

Fairy Info ---------------------------------------------
The faeries that reside in Halloween Town are not your average cute and cuddly pixies. Oh no, these are the ones that humans have spent centuries finding ways to protect themselves from. They are mischievous in nature, playing pranks on others regardless of their social status, or stealing their belongings to keep for themselves. They spend a lot of time holding competitions to see who can pull of the best prank, or steal the best item. Apart from that, they are lovers of dance and music, regally holding festivals and bursting into song at a moment’s notice. Dam, you should see the parties these guys hold!
But being pranksters and partiers is just a side gig for these guys. Since they are of the Reaper class, their main focus is to harvest souls. But being the tricky little buggers they are, the fairies never do it the old fashioned way like other reapers. Instead they will lure away their targets getting them completely lost, and then lead them to their deaths. By doing it this way, it makes it much easier since it takes a lot of energy to take a soul from a still living person.
After the deed has been done, the fairy may take on the image of the person they have killed for a little while. Until they get bored and reveal themselves before disappearing. This allows them to harvest FEAR as well as souls, and makes them look even scarier.
Sadly, these reapers have had it tough in the past. Their magic is powerful, but humans have found many wards that keep these guys at bay. For example, the four leaf clover and the st john’s wart are quite potent, always causing a allergic reaction in any fairy nearby. Prolonged expose to these plants can prove fatal, so Fairies are forced to give them a wide berth. Thankfully though their business is starting to pick up, as people rarely believe in the supernatural anymore and are quick to explain anything mysterious with science.
As for relations with the rest of Halloween Town, they don’t really care about anyone other than themselves. Many denizens just annoy them with their constant jokes about how ‘un-scary’ a fairy is, so they are quick to ignore them. They are also careful about socializing with others, encase they end up getting their butts handed to them when a joke goes bad.
At a glance it appears like theres a miniature jungle inside this room. You can even here various bird calls and other animal noises.oh wait, thats just the mini pets. Astra forgets to close the closet door a lot. Once you get past all the various plan tlife, you'll find more normal things located in this room, such as a bed,drawers, shelves, etc.
Fizzles is one of Astra's most prized minipets. She's friendly, loyal, eager to help her out, happy to be cuddled, and she's also quite small! Plus it's a 'fae' dragon. COME ON!
