Asheva

Asheva is a Black Chrome and the main protagonist of The Red Harlequin series. Originally from the Black Nation, he is the current Red Harlequin and in a relationship with the Red Princess, Cestia.

Appearance
Asheva has pale skin, black hair, and forest-green eyes. Before escaping Axyum, he wore the traditonal clothing of the Black Nation. In Ayas, he wore the stereotypical Harlequin uniform prior to his execution before being saved by Chtomio. In the Red Kingdom, he wore traditional clothing of the Reds. After the Siege of Samaris, he did not wear any mask and now prefers not to wear one.

Personality
Prior to meeting Chotmio, Asheva was full of pride about the Black Nation and believed anything the Elders told the tribe. After meeting Chtomio, he started become empathetic and kind towards people, but still has "Black pride" in him.

Pre-Series
Asheva was born to Valia and an unknown Black in Axyum and was raised according to Black tradition. Prior to his escape from the Black city, he was friends with Andahar.

Of Masks and Chromes
Asheva's father takes Asheva to Axyum's central square to witness the execution of a Harlequin. The next day, a war against the Reds is waged. Asheva's father is one of the many Black soliders who participate in the war, as he is part of the Black First Army. A month after the war declaration, Asheva and Valia are told that Asheva's father has died in battle; this places Valia into a permanet state of greiving/mourning. A few months pass until the Eldest declares, under the night of a full blood moon, that the Red army has won the war and that the Red Kingdom needs twenty ounces of gold per family to pay for their losses.
