:vampire: Astrid must die!!! Why is she kept alive? She just walks around, flipping her hair saying: oh I'm Astrid, I have a big brain, and like to troll people everyday.

Contains spoilers up to PLAGUE.
Spoiler: show
Um... have you READ the books? Astrid is one of most important non-freaks. She calmed the panicked children with her rationality, gave Sam the motivation to control his power, forced Pete to release the CA kids from concrete and get rid of the gut bugs and... and...
DAW! She does so much! She's an important character and contributes so much, not only to the series, but to the books themselves.
Sam would have fallen apart if it weren't for Astrid, Caine (or perhaps even Drake) would have taken over, Drake would be whipless, no one would even be able to begin to comprehend the animal mutations as soon as they did, Pete would have been helpless!

Astrid isn't my favorite. But, she is important. A lot of things would have fallen apart if it wasn't for Astrid. Plus, I read the first 10 chapters of FEAR and
Spoiler: show
Your opinion of her might just change a little bit. She quicly became more like able in a couple of chapters.


^^^^I wasn't sure if that was neccesary to put in a spoiler,but you never know ;D

She may be annoying, but like Eilidh said, she's important. If she died, then Sam would probably go into depression, not to mention what Pete would do, and all of the other people in the FAYZ that are dependent on Sam, which is almost everyone.

She calmed the panicked children with her rationality, gave Sam the motivation to control his power, forced Pete to release the CA kids from concrete The CA kids deserved it and get rid of the gut bugs Little Pete got rid of them, not her. If she hadn't done it, Sam was already having Jack do it, anyway. Also, she did it by (thinking that she was) killing her own brother. and... and...
DAW! She does so much! She's an important character and contributes so much, not only to the series, but to the books themselves. Contributes badly.
Sam would have fallen apart if it weren't for Astrid Astrid makes him fall apart, Caine (or perhaps even Drake) would have taken over Astrid has never done anything to prevent Caine or Drake from taking over, Drake would be whipless Which is a good thing. Not only would Drake's victims be alive, but the Gaiaphage would not have survived without Drake, no one would even be able to begin to comprehend the animal mutations as soon as they did They would have soon enough. Astrid isn't the only person in the FAYZ with a logical cell in their body, Pete would have been helpless! Why do you say this?


Spoiler: show
Plus, she's just TERRIBLE in Fear. Everything about her in Fear. I loved her in the first two books, mostly because she reminded me exactly of myself, but after that I hated her.

If she died, it would probably screw up the book abit because sam would be so sad and then he'd probably go crazy and kill people and who could stop Sam other than Caine? Then Caine would use this as an excuse to kill Sam then its bye bye sam.

Exactly. She's very important. You have to admit that, even if you hate her guts (which I actually don't).

I don't know about killing innocent people, but Sam is already not exactly normal lets just say. Astrid dying probably would make him go off the deep end.

Astrid is an extremely well developed character.

She was given the anal religious freak that knew everything near the beginning of the story. Then as the story progressed, it became evident how much she didn't know.

Fear spoiler:
Spoiler: show
And in fear, she turned into a self surviving, smart, strong person. She gained survival techniques, and lost her religious ties. It made her character twenty times better.


You want a character to hate on. Hate on Albert. His character is well developed also, but he is just an asshat.

Well said! And Astrid's my favourite character (like what Lea said), and 'Astrid' is also my real name~!! :glad:
