Lady Aesculapius

Lady Aesculapius was a rebellious member of the Firmament, the 10,000 Dawns equivalent of the Great Houses. She was friends with Graelyn Scythes and Archimedes Von Ahnerabe, who were once her travelling companions through time and space.

When the Firmament were turned to fiction by Auteur, Lady Aesc tried to find other survivors using her Quantum Whisk, which led her to New York City in 2460. From there, she joined Graelyn and Arch in pursuit of the painted warriors into N-Space. After meeting with Littlejohn on Gendar and being joined by Coloth, Aesc and her cohorts confronted the Original Mammoths. They were then betrayed by Auteur and Aesc was made a fictional character.

In Auteur's Town, Aesc was the star of a long-running television series which had 276 blu-rays and wasn't suited to movies. Aesc escaped from fictionality during the Town's destruction and briefly fought the Firmament with Coloth. Later, she was present at the Needle during the signing of the Christmas Needle Agreement, playing cards with Archimedes, Coloth, and many other aliens. (NOTVALID: White Canvas)

Behind the scenes

 * "Aesculapius" is the latin name of the Greco-Roman god of healing and medicine.
 * Lady Aesc originates from the short story Never Go On Walks, first published in James Wylder's unofficial Doctor Who poetry book An Eloquence of Time and Space and later republished in the 10,000 Dawns anthology Poor Man's Illiad, which also included a story on Aesc's origins in the Firmament.
