Anastasia

"'I always knew that my mother wanted the best for me.'"Anastasia Rose Ambermore, better known as Stasia or under the alias, Archangel, is the daughter of Geneviève and heir to the throne of Tenebris. All throughout the Redvale Mountains, she is also known as the False Enchantress, since she was made to believe that because of her mother, when the true Enchantress was Serena. Her mother may be one of Serena's ancestors, but she and Serena have a mentor-student relationship.

Anastasia does have magic, but she possesses only the basics, such as Teleportation and Telekinesis but they are quite strong. Even though her "basic" powers are powerful, she tends to not use them at all, seeing magic as a bad thing, since her mother possesses dark magic. During Serena's imprisonment in Darkness Awakens, she teaches Anastasia how to properly use her magic and that magic can be a good thing if used by the right person.

Appearance
''“I stood next to a petite girl, the top of her head barely grazes my shoulder blade for Lillian's sake! She had soft caramel curls and''

— Serena’s first impression of Anastasia

Anastasia is often told that she looks a lot like her mother, which is why Geneviève tried to manipulate her daughter into acting like her. Other than Caroline, Anastasia is the shortest female character, both of them standing at five-feet-one-inch, and has a rectangular figure. Anastasia has long, dark brown hair that grazes her shoulders and has streaks of caramel running through it. Despite being nearly thirty years old, Anastasia has a very youthful appearance with an oval shaped face with arched eyebrows with a small scar on top of the right one and large doe eyes that are the same gray-green as her mother’s. Her nose is slender and button-esque and has medium-full lips. Anastasia has the typical 'girl-next-door' look, but she adds edge to the look and often wears heels in order to appear taller.

Magical
Unlike true Enchantresses such as Lillian, Angelina, Morgana, her mother, Evangeline or Serena, who's magic is very powerful, Anastasia's is extremely weak. Her mother tried and tried to teach her magic, but it failed over and over, time and time again. When Geneviève was talking with Lillian before her daughter was born, Lillian specifically stated that her daughter was not the next Enchantress, which angered Geneviève a lot and she began teaching her daughter magic.While Anastasia did learn a lot from her mother's magic lessons, she never was able to access more than the basics and only two powerful spells. She pretended to have a lot more magic than she actually had in order to please her mother. In the present day, she almost never uses her magic, but breaks her code for battles and for the occasional teleportation.

Non-Magical
Like both Evangeline and Isabella Millicent, Anastasia is a talented gardener, but unlike the both of them, she does not use magic in order to do that. She specializes in the rare Blood Roses found in The Blood Forest and Dahlias. Before she was allowed to actually garden, she would often admire the beautiful hedge sculptures placed in the gardens along with the intricate thorn designs placed between each row of roses. Anastasia does not like the thorn element of the gardens, but she does have respect for the artist who made the designs.

Unlike many people she knows, Anastasia is actually a great public speaker. Geneviève has even admitted to her daughter that she is very nervous when she has to speak in front of the kingdom, but Anastasia thinks that her mother does well enough. While she is good at the actual speaking, she is very bad at writing her own speeches and often has to have her secretary, Tila, to write them for her.

A thing that Anastasia had held close to her heart for a long time is sewing and fashion design. When she first started sewing at the age of six, she often handmade little things like dolls, quilts and pillows for around the house. As she got more and more advanced, she began designing her own clothes for a while, before her mother made her stop it and hired a "real designer" to make Anastasia's clothes. When the sewing machine was invented in 1846, she had Tila secretly but one for her and she began to sew like crazy on that. While Anastasia can imagine the item of clothing in her head, she can not transfer that vision on to paper as a sketch, so she often gets an idea and starts stitching and hope it comes out correctly.
