Asha is a Dark-type creo that serves as a repository for memories across generations.

Those vast stores of knowledge and remembered experience are what gave Asha the legendary wisdom it is known for.

To the disappointment of many mere mortals, Asha are not a very accessible resource. Very few people can claim to have held a conversation with these reclusive creo.

They have their ways of seeing while remaining unseen, and of keeping up with human affairs without ever speaking to a human.

The overwhelming majority of those who have caught a glimpse of an Asha are librarians and researchers, because Asha love books and great places of learning.

When they think the coast is clear, they often float down the aisles between bookshelves, browsing for the latest word on human intellectual achievement.

Biology

Asha stands 2.2 meters and weighs 40 kilograms, and that mismatch explains how it moves. Almost none of it is solid. The height is mostly a hanging fall of dark material that never quite settles, and it drifts rather than walks, keeping a hand's breadth of air between itself and the floor.

Its eyes are the only feature that reliably shows. Observers describe them as unhurried rather than watchful, and note that an Asha reading a room will hold still for minutes at a time while everything else about it goes on stirring faintly.

The memories Asha carries are stored in physical layers rather than recalled at will. The oldest sit deepest, compressed by everything laid down since, which is why an Asha asked a direct question will often surface something from a thousand years ago before it reaches yesterday. That is thought to be the real reason conversations with them so rarely go anywhere.

Asha does not need to witness an event to keep it. It takes impressions from objects and places that have been handled or lived in long enough, which is why archives and old reading rooms suit it so well. The shelves themselves have absorbed centuries of attention, and an Asha can work through a room the way another creo would work through a meal.

It eats nothing. What sustains it is the taking of impressions, and an Asha kept somewhere new and unused grows sluggish and thin in a way that resembles hunger closely enough that early observers recorded it as exactly that.

To say Asha's life spans generations is an understatement. It is very hard to keep track of a creo that outlives any census-taker, but Asha are thought to live upwards of 10000 years.

Asha are solitary by preference rather than temperament. Put two in one place and they will spend the entire encounter passing memories back and forth, and neither will attend to anything else. Where a library holds more than one, they divide the building between them and keep to their own floors.

Description

Asha are considered very wise creo that live for many generations.
