'''Ashravan''' of the Eighty Suns is the 49th Emperor of the [[Rose Empire]] and a member of the [[Heritage Faction]].{{book ref|b|tes|day|2}} At the time of his injury he was forty years old.{{book ref|b|tes|day|2}}

He is described as having a "strong face." He has golden hair, a firm chin and a prominent nose.{{book ref|b|tes|day|98}}

Despite being known to have a temper, he is a humble man, and an idealist, at heart.{{book ref|b|tes|day|30}}{{book ref|b|tes|day|42}} He loves to write horrible poetry and having a good debate. He is arrogant, but secretly wishes he could be something other than what he is.{{book ref|b|tes|day|59}} He also hates fish.{{book ref|b|tes|day|70}}

He had a younger brother who died when Ashravan was six.{{book ref|b|tes|day|12}} He idolized his brother, but kept his feelings secret due to a belief that his brother would have made a better emperor. His brother’s fondness for green is the reason it is Ashravan's favorite color.{{book ref|b|tes|day|30}}

At some point Ashravan began to keep a private journal, perhaps to reflect on the choices he had made. He left instructions to have it burned on his death.{{book ref|b|tes|day|17}}

After the death of Emperor [[Yazad]], Ashravan was chosen to lead the empire.{{book ref|b|tes|day|17}}

According to Gaotona, Ashravan originally became emperor out of a desire to change the empire such as the favoritism shown to the [[Grand]]s.{{book ref|b|tes|day|30}} Over time however, his desire waned.{{book ref|b|tes|day|42}} Ashravan was swept up in the bureaucracy of an empire that worked, if not perfectly, than well enough. He focused more on the beauty of it all instead of its problems and gave the arbiters more and more control.{{book ref|b|tes|day|59}}

Despite the urgings of Gaotona, his mentor, being a significant factor in his becoming emperor, Ashravan eventually grew to resent Gaotona because he felt inadequate.{{book ref|b|tes|day|70}}

One night a group of assassins, agents of the [[Glory Faction]], broken into the emperor's rooms and attacked him and his wife, Kurshina{{book ref|b|tes|day|85}}, who was killed. He sustained an injury to the head and although a [[Resealing|Resealer]] was able to heal the wound, the emperor was left brain-dead. The arbiters of the Heritage Faction kept the emperor's status a secret by saying he had sequestered himself during the mourning period for his wife. The arbiters then tasked the Forger [[Wan ShaiLu]] to create a new soul for the emperor before the one hundred days of mourning were over.{{book ref|b|tes|day|2}}

Shai used a number of sources for the Soul Forgery, such as official histories, Ashravan’s personal journal and interviews of his friends and family.{{book ref|b|tes|day|17}} The arbiter Gaotona volunteered himself as a test subject for stamps of minor portions of Ashravan's soul.{{book ref|b|tes|day|30}}

On the ninety-eight day of the mourning period Shai succeeded in creating an [[Essence Mark]] to replicate Ashravan’s soul which he would have to be re-stamped with each day.{{book ref|b|tes|day|98}} Buried in the stamp were certain triggers that Shai added to help nudge Ashravan into becoming the emperor he had always dreamed of being.{{book ref|b|tes|day|101}}
