==Early life==
Born in Bowral, New South Wales, Australia, and raised in Berrima, Asmodelle is the first child of Barry and Sylvia Croot. Her name at birth has not been disclosed. She has a sister, Belinda. She attended Chevalier College (then a boys-only school) and Moss Vale High School, where she frequently won first place in various subjects. When she was 16 years old she became seriously ill with spinal meningitis and spent almost a year in hospital. She used a wheelchair for some months and made a complete recovery.
After working briefly in Sydney, she moved to Wollongong and attended Wollongong University where she studied towards two degrees, a Bachelor of Science and a Bachelor of Mathematics, with the hope of becoming a research scientist. As a student she also worked in music ensembles, such as N-lettes and Miscellaneous Music〔Australian Illawarra Mercury Newspaper, 15 May 1982〕 composing and playing experimental and sometimes avant-garde musical art.
During the university period she experienced discrimination by members of the academic staff because of her transsexuality.〔Highlands Post (Australia) Newspaper Friday, 21 October 1987〕 For this reason, she left the University to focus on art and music. She became a dancer, believing that dance was the true artistic synthesis of art and music.〔Nature & Health Magazine (Australia) November Issue 1997〕
