So lore dump. Spoilered, just in case. Show Content Spoiler Theory: There are only 13 Ascians total. Lahabrea, Emmerololth, Deudalaphon, Igeyorhm, Nabriales, Halmarut, Fandaniel, Pashtarot, Emet-Selch, Mitron, Loghriff, and Elidibus. This theory is aided by the cutscene of the twelve black-robed Ascians surrounding Elidibus in the Council of the Chrysalis. Fact: Only 2 of these 13 Ascians were born of this world and can come to it freely. Elidibus and Lahabrea. The rest are locked within the realm between realms. Fact: The Ascians are immortal beings of immense power and knowledge and have existed for millennias, possibly pre-dating the existence of the Twelve. Fact: Ascians may enthrall or physically possess any being of aether and force them to do their will unbeknownst to them. Theory: Two Ascians appeared in the 1.0 storyline possessing people. As 2.5 confirms only two Ascians may enter our world while the Blessing of the Light has strength, these two NPCs must have been Elidibus and Lahabrea. Fact: The Ascians possess infinitely more knowledge of the world, the Echo, Hydaelyn, magic, aether, and pretty much everything than any of us pathetic mortals could ever dream of knowing. (They've had at least 10,000 years to learn.) All these things said, I think it would be most unwise, if not completely lore-breaking to RP as an Ascian. They are immortal, nearly omnipotent beings which we know next to nothing about and are harbingers of chaos and destruction to feed their terrestrial god, Zodiark. They can be "defeated" yes, but not killed (barring one single exception). Now, because I'm generally not a naysayer to the ways or things people wish to RP, I will say the closest thing to an Ascian that would be "lore-friendly" to roleplay, would be a character possessed by or used as a tool for an Ascian, as we have examples of this aplenty ranging from the SMN storyline, the 1.0 Limsa Lominsa storyline, and the 2.0 MSQ.
