Aandastriid has the typical Tripaarneean light blue hair and eyes to match. She has pale skin that burns easily (a product of coming from a space faring people). She is quite a tall woman reaching just under 6 ft. She is not beautiful by any standard but by Tripaarneean standards she is reasonably attractive. However in Vortigern IV where she has grown up and the people are mostly short and blonde. Her blue haired looks and height quite are considered something of an oddity.

Aandastriid has a quiet studious nature. She is extremely intelligent with great ability in spacial and science subjects making her a great navigator, strategist or biologist. She is a loner though having grown up different from everyone else she has not formed any strong bonds with anyone. Even her adoptive parents whom she loves to death she often feels isolated from. She is very independent and won't always ask for help but she is smart enough not refuse it if it is offered.
