Astrix is a member of the original Crims.
Biography[]
As an Ugly, Astrix was in the same dorm as Zane, Shay, Ho, and Croy. Together, they became the original Crims. She and the other Crims were doubtful when Zane insisted that it was possible to run away from the city and live in the wild, but her doubts were soothed when they met David one day in the Rusty Ruins. He told them about his home, the Smoke, and offered to guide them there. They accepted and successfully made it to the Smoke except for Zane and Shay, who were too scared to go when it came down to it.
