Bio

The chiefest and greatest of calamities was born in Chatsworth, California in 1965. When he was ten years old, he got a copy of The Stooges' self-titled album. Telling his mother that he wanted to learn to play the guitar, she makes the greatest mistake in history, and buys her son a used bass and an amp. By the time he was sixteen, Asher was able to play both the bass and guitar with a considerable degree of ability.

Upon graduating high school, instead of matriculating to UCLA, Asher quickly finds himself part of LA's music scene, finding work as a house or session musician.

Asher is now someone-who is probably not emotionally mature-described as being more pissed off than John Doyle, and existing in a continual neon-stained nightlife with people like Slash and Ginger Lynn. Asher was drinking as much as the next guy-if the next guy was Guns n' Roses. He had a seven bottle of vodka a day habit, and never said no if rich assholes had coke or heroin. He would have just as likely become another victim of LA's underbelly of excess if Hattie Vermeyen had not embraced him.

Aggressive, tempestuous, and always pissed off; Cassandra decides to teach Asher responsibility by means of making him responsible for her ghoul, Lady Bennet. Like a child with a puppy, he ensures that she is taken care of, mentored, and protected. The tactic works. As he is no longer a maelstrom of chaos, Asher is assigned to the position of Sheriff of Roanoke, VA. He served the city faithfully, acting as the Prince's Wrath, a lurking threat of violence to be delivered upon those who would displease the Elder Ventrue.

On Halloween night, 2011, the Prince of Roanoke, Julian De Soliel hosted a "Ventrue Ball" in order to "highlight and showcase the opulent wealth and beauty of clan Ventrue." The Prince made it a point of slighting clan Toreador by not allowing any Toreador to contribute any artwork for the exhibits. Asher instead hosted a free all ages concert just outside of Elysium, inviting all members of the Rose to perform or exhibit. Asher and his assembled supergroup [perform] in Halloween costumes resembling other musicians. Asher wore a white Elvis jumpsuit, Kravitz-esque goggle-styled sunglasses, and an afro wig.

Later that night, the Prince was taken by the Beckoning. In an effort to stop him, Asher challenges his praxis by saying, "If you walk out that door, you are not contesting my claim to praxis of this city." The Elder Ventrue just looked at him before walking out into the night to never be seen again.
