Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })An Urban Fantasy novel by Gael Baudino, Gossamer Axe is the story of a Really 700 Years Old "young" woman named Chairiste ni Cummen who, through various magical means, has survived into the year 1987. In the sixth century, Chairiste and her lover, Siudb, were captured by The Fair Folk, and trapped in their static, unchanging world for centuries. In the late 18th Century, Chairiste manages to escape, but leave her lover behind.For two centuries, she has tried repeatedly to win back Siudb from the Fey, following the gate to their world as it made its way around the world, until she ended up in Denver, Colorado. Under the name Christa, she has been passing on some (but not all) of her skills with the Irish harp to students, when one of them decides to pay her back by taking her to an Yngwie Malmsteen concert.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Christa is so overwhelmed by The Power of Rock that she throws herself wholeheartedly into Denver's metal scene in order to put together a band and finally defeat the elvish harper to win back her lover. | |

The Ace: Even as a young girl, Christa was a standout musician, easily outshining everyone around her—people traveled considerable distances to hear her harping even before she received advanced training. When she discovers Heavy Metal, she brings all her talent and discipline to bear on learning a new instrument, and soon becomes an incredible guitarist, gaining the respect (even awe) of everyone who hears her play (Even those who 'know' that girls in rock are only good for looking hot and providing sex for the real musicians—who are all men). Devi also qualifies—she's a highly talented keyboardist who is also extremely knowledgeable about the theory and technology behind her instrument/equipment. | |
