Asfi Al Andromeda commands the Hermes Familia and operates in Orario as the renowned magic item creator "Perseus." She possesses aqua-blue hair and cyan eyes behind silver-framed glasses. Her attire typically features a large white coat over a golden dress, utility pouches at her waist, and the winged flight-granting sandals Talaria. Her background reveals she was a princess of the maritime Aethiopian Kingdom. At sixteen, her mother Cassiopeia provoked Poseidon by boasting of Asfi's superior beauty compared to the god’s concubines. In retaliation, Poseidon demanded Asfi's sacrifice to sea monsters. Hermes rescued her by sinking her transport ship and bringing her to Orario, where she joined his Familia. Her royal lineage shapes her refined demeanor and strategic thinking. After serving as vice-captain, she ascended to captain seven years prior to the main events following her predecessor Lydia's death during the Great Feud. Asfi exhibits a serious, analytical, and duty-driven personality. She maintains unwavering loyalty to Hermes for freeing her from her past, yet frequently expresses exasperation at his manipulative schemes, often punishing him for inappropriate behavior. Pragmatic and secretive, she prioritizes mission efficiency over unnecessary battles. She demonstrates warmth toward trusted allies like Ryuu Lion, supporting them even against Hermes’ directives – aiding Ryuu during the Great Faction War despite orders to remain uninvolved. Her leadership emphasizes calmness under pressure and tactical precision, drawing comparisons to Finn Deimne. A Level 4 adventurer, Asfi's physical abilities surpass lower-level adventurers, though her combat relies heavily on magic items. Her status parameters are Strength (F398), Endurance (G278), Dexterity (C631), Agility (D545), and Magic (I67). Her primary development ability is Mystery (rank A), enabling legendary magic tool creation. Additional abilities include Mixing (rank B) for potions and Metalworking (rank B) for metal shaping. Key creations are: - Talaria: Flight-granting sandals. - Hades Head: Invisibility-conferring helmet. - Burst Oil: Liquid explosives. - Crizea: Needle inciting monster aggression. - Silence Lyra: Sonic attack-nullifying earrings. She wields the Canoval Dagger primarily and possesses the chant-reliant immobilization magic Kalov Argol, rarely used due to impractical casting time. Her critical event involvements include: - Joining Bell Cranel’s rescue mission on the Dungeon’s lower floors, coordinating defenses against the Black Goliath on the 18th floor. - Opposing Hermes’ plan to sacrifice the Xenos during their incident, attempting to force the monster Gros to berserk with Crizea. She later aided civilian evacuation when Asterius intervened. - Evading Freya’s city-wide charm effect, rescuing Ryuu and collaborating with Hestia to infiltrate Freya Familia’s stronghold. She witnessed Hestia’s War Game agreement and provided logistical support via Talaria transport and magic item supply, though flight restrictions limited direct combat. Asfi shares complex relationships: - Hermes: Respects him for her freedom but openly critiques his methods, like his exploitation of Bell during the Xenos incident. - Ryuu Lion: Mutual trust forged through collaborative missions, supporting Ryuu’s emotional recovery after the Astraea Familia’s destruction. - Bell Cranel: Frequently assists him under Hermes’ orders, dubbing him a "walking disaster" yet defending him from Hermes’ manipulations. Trivia notes her alias and crafted items reference Greek mythology: "Perseus" alludes to Andromeda's rescuer, while Talaria and Hades Head mirror Hermes’ sandals and Hades’ helm. Her accumulated wealth reached 44,750,000 valis as of the Xenos arc.
