Description

Asterian is an imposing 27ft tall cold silver plate mail suit of armor that shines as if it has just been polished they have a bulky chest and shoulders with two horns coming from the sides of the helmet with a crown of withered flowers on one of the horns, with a small white handprint on the left side of the helmet. Two burning blue eyes can be seen smoldering like embers within the slits of the helmet. They hold a dark-colored steel longsword with silver flowers decorating the hilt in their left hand with a dark-colored steel shield in their right hand, the emblem engraved in the armor, sword, and shield depicts silver flowers blossoming out of a snake wrapped around a sword. 

(sorry I'm finding Asterian a bit hard to balance so please let me know and leave some suggestions to help balance it.)
