Astrid Beck

Astrid is a character briefly mentioned by Caleb Widogast.

History
In episode eighteen, "Whispers of War", Caleb explains to Beau and Nott that as a teenager he entered the tutelage of Trent Ikithon alongside two of his peers from the town of Blumental, one being a girl named Astrid. Ikithon proceeded to teach them magic and instill into them a deep loyalty to the empire, eventually using them to execute captured traitors.

One night, Ikithon instructed the three students to murder their parents who were supposedly conspirators, though Caleb later discovers that his memories were altered to make him believe this. After waiting outside the other student's house as he killed his parents, the group had dinner with Astrid's parents, whom she killed by poisoning their food. She assumedly was present for Caleb murdering his own parents, though her fate after his breakdown is unknown.

She is referenced again in episode twenty-four. After participating in the eponymous The Hour of Honor, Jester invites a drunk Caleb to waltz with her. As they dance, Caleb calls Jester "Astrid" and admits she was always better at waltzing than him. He realizes his mistake and starts to walk off, but Jester grabs him and leads him safetly to his room. As Jester tucks Caleb in, she reassures him that Astrid loves him, despite not knowing who she is.

Trivia
