Aster was a result of being raised in a wealthy family where people like to put money where their mouth is, literally. Money was the solution to everything, and where there was a lot of money meant there was a lot of connections used to further pursue their agenda. Her mother and father were both successful business people, so it was expected that Aster should also lead a successful business. It meant getting extremely strategic and playing her cards right to get what she wants if she wanted to bring more fortune.

But Aster had goals dreams set in front of her: politics. She wanted to become an Arbiter for the sake of expanding her family's name. It was all about the wealth, fame, and power. Even if she weren't to actually have power, just the idea of appearing to have power and abuse it for her own cause was enough to increase her drive. She dove into the world of politics at a young age, much to her parents extreme support of her goal. Understanding the history and the politics of Eos, she researched and practiced as much as she could for years before she could advance.

It took a lot of years of preparation and practice for Aster to launch her campaign. From speeches to donations to centers that aid those in need, she did everything to win the hearts of the public. She made speeches of things that had certain topics of what people wanted to hear and how the majority believed such matters handled. Aster knew how to appeal to the crowd, which gave her a large boost in popularity and vastly improving her goodhearted image. A lot of people were already in favor of her, which was just one of the more "minor" things, she'd call it, she worried about.

The real work was behind the scenes. With the help and influence of her parents and their wealth, they all began to create connections within the political world. Bribery to drastic options such as threatening their status or even their lives, the Villin family did everything they could to sway the majority vote with the help of other politicians. Endorsements, affiliations, it was all benefiting her image and creating a larger influence for the vote to sway in her favor.

Before she knew it, and as expected, Aster became an Arbiter. Many have cheered for her success while others doubted that she had a clean race. There were even rumors about her buying her way into the position and bribing other politicians to create a bias of favoring her. Whether or not the rumors were true to the general public, what mattered the most was Aster securing her position.

Aster continued to uphold her charming and motherly image in both private and public spaces. Even if she doesn't have much power than she'd expect, it didn't mean she couldn't use her connections and have other methods of creating intimidation. She's already blinded by her own greed for fortune and drunk with gaining domination around her ever since she became an Arbiter.

She has sworn to do whatever she could to maintain her position, even if it meant getting her own hands dirty.
