'''Ashlynn''' is a character in the {{DQSeries}} that appears as a playable party member in {{DQ6}}. She starts as a [[mage]]-type character and learns the powerful spell, [[Magic Burst]], without use of the vocation system.


==Story==
==Appearance and personality==
{{spoiler|start}}
Ashlynn wears a vivid blue tunic with charcoal sleeves ending in saffron gloves, a tall belt with a silver buckle, brown leather shoes with black socks, and a scarlet cape. Her belt has a clip for holding her whip when she is not using it. She also sports one of the wildest hairstyles [[Akira Toriyama]] has ever put to pen.
She is from the magical city, [[Sorceria]],  which had been sealed away by [[Gracos]]. The player will first encounter her in the [[Moonmirror Tower]] as a spirit, similar to what the hero and [[Carver]] were, and she joins the party after they retrieve [[Ra's Mirror]].
{{spoiler|end}}
{{Stub}}


==Base Stats==
Ashlynn joins the party with severe amnesia, and quickly grows close to them after they restore her visibility. Despite her memory loss, she boasts a plucky disposition and ever-energetic attitude regardless of the group's daunting tasks save for one notable exception. Ashlynn is never reserved when it comes to her emotions, letting the whole world know when's she's happy, sad, or laughing up a riot. She also isn't afraid to throw her weight around either, flat out demanding that the party help troubled townsfolk they come across in her party chat and considers her bossy side to be part of her charm.


While never outright stated, it is '''strongly''' implied that Ashlynn has feelings for the {{Hero 6}}. Over the course of their adventures together this transforms from a simple crush to genuine love, to the point that Ashlynn will make mental notes of the Hero's answers to Judith's questions in [[Weaver's Peak]], along with other revealing remarks in her party chat. 
{{clear}}
==Appearances==
==={{DQ6}}===
{{spoiler|start}}Ashlynn is first encountered at [[Moonmirror Tower]], suffering the same translucency that the {{Hero 6}} and [[Carver]] had earlier. Overjoyed that there are people who can finally see her, Ashlynn insists on accompanying the party once they apply a few drops of [[List of items in Dragon Quest VI#Incredible Items|Dream dew]] to make her solid once more. She brings a considerable amount of magic to the table and isn't shy about engaging monsters, but she does become nervous when faced with the prospect of dealing with the real [[Murdaw]] after the party had so much hardship with his doppelganger. When the heroes arrive at the fiend's island on the ship borrowed from the people of [[Ghent]], she asks to stay behind out of fear.
Once Murdaw has been killed, Ashlynn rejoins the party and continues her travels with the group with no further doubts or hesitancy. Over the course of her adventure, her origins are uncovered and Ashlynn learns that she is from the magical city [[Sorceria]], which had been destroyed by the Archfiend [[Mortamor]] approximately 50 years before the game's events. When Sorceria was besieged by the Archfiend, the citizens shed their mortal bodies and fled to the world of dreams to escape total annihilation, inhabiting a duplicate of their home before it was sealed away by [[Gracos]] on Mortamor's orders. Ashlynn's magical strength is so great that it deflected the fiend's sealing spell and her soul remained free, but force of the conflicting magic caused her to lose her memories.
The reason for the city being targeted is due to the Sorcerians knowing the ultimate spell, [[Magic Burst]], which is passed along to Ashlynn when the eldress of the town is spoken to. Ashlynn is the direct descendant of the founder of Sorceria, Ashmeralda, and several items available in the town were crafted especially for her use in the battle against the Archfiend. In addition, the events in the town bequeath Ashlynn with a new epithet: the Scion of Sorceria.
After journeying into the Archfiend's realm and defeating Mortamor, the group returns to a world at peace and the party returns to their homes except for Ashlynn who only briefly returns to her Sorceria to tell everyone what has happened. Ashlynn is then informed that she should study at [[Cloudsgate Citadel]] and learn from King Zenith. She chooses however to stay with the Hero. Upon arriving at Somnia, both are greeted by the King and Queen who compliment the young "couple" much to their shyness and invite them to the royal celebration.
Each party member is spoken to during this sequence save Ashlynn, whom the Hero finds in the throne room: because she never merged with her separated body, Ashlynn is fading along with the dream world as it begins separating from reality. The Hero and Ashlynn tearfully say their farewells as she disappears. All that then remains of the world of dreams is Cloudsgate Citadel, which remains fixed in the sky and becomes the legendary [[Zenithia]] after the land around it vanishes.
After the end credits, the reunited party gathers at [[Madame Luca Luminista]]'s house upon [[Milly]]'s request. Luca conjures a vision through her crystal ball, and the party sees Ashlynn alive and well in Zenithia where she is witnessing the hatching of the egg that holds a new future. Upon hatching the egg releases a stunning light which amazes Ashlynn and the onlookers, closing the game with the words "The End". Ashlynn's presence in Zenithia likely means the palace still has a connection to the Dream World through its magic and the others can still visit her there with the help of [[Pegasus]].{{spoiler|end}}

==Etymology==
Ashlynn is an Irish woman's name meaning ''Dream'' and ''Vision'', and Barbara is the English derivative of the Greek ''Barbaros'', meaning ''Stranger'' and ''Traveler from a Foreign Land''. Both names reference the young woman's otherworldly origins and her status as a stranger in a strange land, with the former likely being selected for the international release due to Barbara being a common name in English-speaking territories.
==Trivia==
*It is noted many times that Ashlynn is in love with the Hero, saying things such as ''"Hey Hero, I got a new outfit today. Do I look good in it?"'' or ''"Aah love, I know how she feels..."'' or ''"If I were her I'd pick you over [[Buddy]], but..."'', with even the Hero's parents compliment them on being a cute couple. This is even supported in battle, as only she and the Hero cannot be removed from the party by any means.
*Ashlynn hopes to settle down and become a homemaker one day. This is evident in one of her early lucky dip actions and party chat after speaking to Alicia in the Upper [[Clearvale]].
*Ashlynn's physical form is in fact the [[The mysterious dragon|golden dragon]], which took on the shape of a wondrous wyrm due to the young lady's incredible magic. Further details are explained on the dragon's page.
