and here's the really funky one - Asch is from an element system that has all the same elements as FFXIV, though their light/dark are more literal than stasis/activity. Asch is aspected to every element except ice naturally (and currently has ice from a magic emotional bond with his AU's Jade). Usually darkness is most prominent, but that may shift if he's specifically using other elements (which will be noted in tags).
Additionally, Asch will probably seem odd because the vast majority of his body is an (a)ether construct around his core crystal - that is to say, he's physical in approximately the same way a primal is physical, except for a chunk of crystal in his chest that's actually a semi-organic supercomputer and an actual physical object. (The weapons he can summon are similarly (a)etherforms.) Technically Asch is fused out of parts of seven such crystals, which is why he's So Weird compared to other blades, but that's probably not a thing Elidibus would be able to tell without a close/intimate examination. he does have a single soul, though, if that's something you want to notice at all.
