Name: Ashe B'nargin Dalmasca
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Alliance: Dalmasca
Race: Hume
Personality: While she may be a princess and also the youngest daughter, Ashe is definitely not a damsel in distress or a demure girl. She is independent and more than capable of taking care of herself. Ashe is also very strong-willed, and due to her spoiled upbringing, may demand everyone to obey her every word. Her strong will can also be a positive trait however, as it would take a real lot to make her give up.
Description:
Ashe has short sand blond hair that reaches down to her shoulders. Her eyes are light grey even though they can also appear a little blue at times. She is neither tall nor short for her age with an average form. Ashe also has slightly tanned skin from living in the middle of a desert for seventeen years. Her lips are rarely, if ever, curled up in a smile, giving her an unfriendly look. She moves with grace when she remembers to do so, but even when she doesn't remember, Ashe can always be seen standing up straight and gliding, not walking.
History: Being the Princess of Dalmasca, Ashe had an easy life early on. Her uncle is the Marquis of Bhujerba, Marquis Halim Ondore IV, who she became very close to.
When she was 17, she was married to Lord Rasler of Nabradia. The marriage was one of convenience, since Dalmasca needed allies to help them against the oncoming Archadian armies, but Ashe did care for her new husband. However, their marriage was cut short, as Lord Rasler was killed at the siege of Nalbina Fortress. A short while afterwords, Ashe retreated to the underground with one of her captains, Vossler. There, she formed the resistance to stop Archadia. Meanwhile, Marquis Ondore had announced that Ashe had committed suicide, a ploy by the Archadians to drive a wedge between the two.
During the course of the story, Ashe keeps on seeing a ghost of her husband, Lord Rasler. Unable to explain it, the only other person who can see him is Vaan, but he is unsure if it is Rasler, or his brother Reks.
Later, at Giruvegan, Ashe meets the Occuria. They say that she will be their new Dynast King, to shape history the way they want it. Giving her the Treaty Blade, they tell her to destroy Archadia, and take back what is hers. Ashe is reluctant to follow the gods, and so is the rest of the party.
At the Pharos at Ridorana, while at the Sun-Cryst, Ashe decides what she must do. Seeing Rasler beckon her to take the nethicite, Ashe realises that it is not the man she married, but rather the Occuria trying to control her. Striking at the ghost, the Occuria beg Ashe to reconsider, for they need their saint. However, Ashe knows what she needs to do and destroys the spirit.
Then, after defeating Dr Cid, Ashe decides the best course of action is to destroy the Sun-Cryst. However, Reddas intervenes and destroyed the Cryst for them, dying in the process.
It should be noted, that by destroying the Sun-Cryst, Ashe is actually helping realize Dr Cid's and Vayne's dream, of freeing mankind from the grasp of the Occuria. Indeed, this is probably the first Final Fantasy where both sides actually want the same thing in the end.
A year after the events of Final Fantasy XII, Ashe is coroneted as the Queen of Dalmasca. She is seperated from the rest of the party because of this, and unlike other games in the series, she is not reunited with the rest of the party for one last emotional scene.
