The first Aberration to be hired on to the school's staff, Aaisha is also among the very first Aberrations to ever leave the Wyrmwound. Shortly after the breed's re-introduction to the world, among the turmoil and danger that came with it, she decided to bring three of her favorite students from the Rim somewhere safe, and they eventually landed at Home. Though limited in her knowledge of wider Sornieth, Aaisha has been an accomplished healer throughout her life, and now shares that experience with the dragons at Home in her position as assistant head physician.

- Biography
Like all Aberrations of her generation, Aaisha was born on the inside rim of the Wyrmwound and lived there for most of her life, rarely venturing far past Rotrock Rim. Always a gifted magician, she trained in ancient Plague medicine, and bolstered her knowledge with rare books she found dropped by travelers to the Rim. When the Aberrations were revealed to wider Sornieth, turmoil broke out - they were introduced through the militaristic Boneguard, and were often met with distrust by other dragons. Not wanting a life of war for herself or her fellow Aberrations, Aaisha left with three of her favorite students, determined to find somewhere safe. Although she intended to leave the three younger dragons behind when they arrived at Home, Cielo was able to pester her into staying and serving as his assistant head physician.

- Life at Home
Aaisha's skill as a healer is unmatched. Together with Cielo, who knows a great deal about modern Sornieth medicine but very little about the traditional medical magic, the two doctors make a wonderful team. Her bedside manner isn't the best, but Aaisha can spot a student faking sick to get out of classes a mile away, and has a keen and intuitive eye for medicine. Being the oldest Aberration at Home, and the only one who didn't come to Home while she was still young, she is still learning about wider Sornieth and feels she has a great deal to catch up on, from fast food to newspapers to hot-air balloon travel.

- Relationships
Aaisha can easily seem a bit intimidating at first, with a very serious, no-nonsense attitude and a very dry and understated sense of humor. A gentle and compassionate healer, though, she quickly won the trust of Home's students and the admiration and respect of her colleagues. She gets along especially well with Cielo, her fellow doctor, and his husband, the school's Headmaster Lothur, with whom she loves to share knowledge of their world and of the Wyrmwound. Aaisha formally adopted the three young dragons she brought to Home, and takes great pride in watching them grow up and thrive in modern Sornieth, which she admits she didn't think was possible for Aberrations. She loves all three of them, but she gets along best with Aani, who shares her quiet and thoughtful nature, and can clash with Aariz's impulsive ambition and get annoyed with Aaqilah's propensity for stirring up trouble.

- Personality
Serious and thoughtful, Aaisha's words carry weight around Home. She isn't a dragon easily given to joking around or making light of things, and usually says exactly what she means. She doesn't tolerate nonsense or time-wasting, and makes it quite clear to her new students that, if they think they can fool around in her classes, they are sorely mistaken. Having grown up in the Wyrmwound, where comforts are few and beauty is rare, Aaisha has surprised herself with her newfound love of nature, gardening, and fine craftsmanship. She loves taking walks in nature and attending to her personal flower garden, although she doesn't have much of a green thumb, and her colleagues have taken to finding her beautiful glass and pottery as gifts. One of the most highly-respected dragons around Home, Aaisha sometimes says, only half-joking, that she never expected her life to be so comfortable.
