Character Name: Zorayda Moonchild
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Race: Catfolk (Human out of dream world)
Powers: Zorayda is a friendly and extremely empathetic person. So deep does her empathy flow that in Jinzo's head, she could probably share his pain or take some of the burden of dealing with his own sins. However, this could backfire if she takes on too much, making her struggle with staying on Jinzo's side instead of Deus.

Appearance: 4'10" and still growing, at around 100 lbs. Zorayda's body hasn't quite filled in yet, but at fifteen, she is a tad more developed than other girls her age. She has pale skin, blonde hair, and forest-green eyes, with a smattering of freckles across her cheeks and nose. She doesn't really wear makeup at her age, yet, and sometimes gets self-conscious because she breaks out in acne easily. She normally wears her hair down in curly waves. Her smile is probably the prettiest part of her, with sculpted lips and pretty white teeth--but most of all, her smiles are always genuine. She generally just wears jeans and t-shirts with sandals. She also sports a pair of purple-framed, rectangular glasses.

CATFOLK FORM: Same shape and size, but her hair disappears and she becomes a humanoid-looking lioness. Her fur is a pale cream, her face a mix of human and animal. Her eyes retain their human color, but she gains claws and a tail. Her feet are digitigrade and therefore she wears no shoes.
Personality: Zorayda is a myriad of different things, but what people see right away is that she’s cheerful and very friendly. Some people would even call it annoyingly perky. She makes friends right away and is very helpful and kind. She also has a knack for seeing the bright side of things, which makes people attracted to her subconsciously. Zor is unsure why, but people flock to her to tell her their problems, at which she simply listens and comforts them but usually doesn’t know how to solve them. She has a huge amount of empathy for people and genuinely feels pain and happiness for others.

Under that happy exterior, though, Zor is a deep ocean of emotions. Having had a bad family life, she was brought up to feel guilt for wanting things for herself, and taught to think next to nothing of her own abilities. She pushes aside all of her own needs to grant the needs of others, no matter the cost. Zor acts confident at times, but again it’s mostly all a facade that covers her cripplingly low self-esteem. There are some days when she’s angry at the world and wants nothing but to just cry; this happens at least once a month and sometimes more. However, she only opens her true self to the ones she completely trusts, and through that bond her calmer, more level-headed nature comes out, and she’ll actually tell the truth about what she thinks and not sugar-coat it.

She’s actually very smart in a lot of ways, though her ‘blonde and bubbly’ personality can make that seem unlikely. Zorayda is also extremely creative and artistic; she can paint things from memory and she has no problem with visual puzzles.

Zorayda is extremely sensitive to others’ reaction to her. She doesn’t understand when people don’t like her and she takes insults to heart. Compliments make her feel nice temporarily but don’t seem to throw sticky darts in her heart like insults do.
Backstory: Zor met Jinzo in the third grade, and followed him into middle school. Her birthday falls in September, so she was always a bit older than Jinzo (something she liked to tease him for). Jinzo was a strange child who sometimes said dark things, but as a child being raised in an abusive household, Zorayda understood that darkness. She made it a point to speak to him and try and empathize with him, hating to see anyone be so miserable alone. Her empathetic heart reached out to him, and though her intention was only to cheer him up at first, she quickly began to consider him a real friend. As they grew older, she worried for his sanity when his second personality appeared. Zor knew nothing of this other side of Jinzo, but knew that the things he did or said weren't anything like the person she'd grown up with. After the accident, Zor visited as often as her controlling mother would allow and would even sneak out some days under the ruse of extracurricular activities.
Other: None as of now.
