Personality:
Zaniah for the most part is a spoiled kid. Her father figure was replaced by her grandparents and since she was the youngest she often got everything. For the most part, this can make her a little insensitive and selfish at times. Much in contrast to her brother who is especially sensitive of their mother's plight and is very protective of his sister because he never wants Zan to struggle the way his mother had to.
Zaniah grew up rather boisterous and always compared to her much more disciplined brother. But it didn't do much to deter or bother her. She was content being the trouble maker and enjoyed the attention. Both the kids were lucky and blessed with the intelligence to pursue whatever they set their minds to. While their inquiries in a lot ways, were similar, their methods of processing the world around them was very different.
Her brother had always been good at detecting patterns by being observant and patient, he hoped that being able to predict certain outcomes would allow him to prepare and prevent bad things. While curious and impatient Zaniah was much more active in her pursuit for answers, and often unaware of her surroundings. Both were cursed with a nasty temper which especially flared if anyone did anything to hurt them or their loved ones, but it appeared as though Z could contain it better.
Zaniah would often bite off more than she could chew, luckily for her it had not landed her in any situation that had been too sticky (especially given Z's existence and his friends' connections. She curses people and a lot of times those curses come true, but she can do little to personally follow up on the tall threats she habitually makes. The way her mother brought her up makes her very prone to guilt however, so while she may hurt in anger, she feels miserable about it later.
Back Story:
Zaniah was the second product of a failed marriage between an Arabic man and a Italian woman. The hope was that she'd save the family, but her existence in a largely male dominated society back in Oasis only made her mother fear for her upbringing, throwing the relationship she had with her husband in complete disarray. Zaniah was six and her brother was nine, when finally their mother decided to move back to her homeland in Italy.
Zaniah and her brother Zaurack are primarily brought up by their mother and doting maternal grandparents. Following the move, their life was rather comfortable.While they weren't exceptionally rich, they were brought up among the wealthier crowd in Milan since their father was in charge of paying for their education.
Zaniah had always been very curious to get scientific answers to her more philosophical questions, drawing her to field of neuroscience and genetics at a pretty young age as she hoped to glean information on human consciousness. At school Zaniah often found people her age immature and ended up hogging her older brother's friends. Z had been lucky to get close to two very sensible kids by the name of Jeffrey and Dianne. Jeff was an orphan, but his uncle and Dianne's parents owned a very big research facility and several businesses.
Till she was about fifteen, life had been a breeze, following which Overwatch was destroyed, and Z had to shift universities because his previous one had affiliations with the organization. Her brother moved out of town, leaving her with his two friends. The next few years she heavily relied on Jeff and Dianne's guidance and companionship. While the two of them were basically ordered to learn the ropes of the family business.
A popular bar they visited had a new bartender, about Jeff's age, who the trio caught the conning drunk people into dart matches that he'd always win. The bartender was an orphan called Raun was a semi-trained engineer. He and Jeff hit off owing to their dark pasts and Jeff decided to commend Raun for a job in the research facility. He was soon a part of their little family.
When Zaniah was about eighteen, she was advised to join a local medschool, while earning the opportunity to work on some neuro-related research in the facility. Z returned and he had found himself a girlfriend, an Italian called Emma who quickly fell into the folds of the group, owing to the fact that she already knew Raun since the two had gone to the same school and both had parents who had been affiliated with Overwatch.
Three years later, Jeff is met with a devastating blow. His uncle is found dead in his mansion and he has now inherited complete control of the research facility. His friends being his most trusted advisers, the bunch decided to venture into this uncharted territory together. Jeff finds that there were a lot of different projects that were ongoing, some the skirted the boundaries of the legal system. In the wake of this tragedy, the six of them must decide how to best employ the resources at hand with the skills they possess, for the betterment of the world.
