Aster Mercado is a troubled kid, I guess you could say. Growing up at a young age with extreme magical potency and a lack of control over it has its drawbacks,, which unfortunately include exploding school buses, and pumpkins appearing when he gets nervous. He's mostly keeping his life together though, at the ripe old age of 21. Customer service was not nearly as as fun as saving the world, but man. He misses getting a break.
