Zephr
Age:
Sixteen
Sex:
Female
Personality:
Zephr is a kind, caring little angel. She loves to see people smile, laugh, and be happy. In all ways you may call her a martyr, because in all aspects she is one. She can and will be far too trusting with people, and will defend ones that she doesn’t know. She is inquisitive and loves to speak her mind.
Biography: Zephr grew up in a world where there was purity. She was a resident of the planet known as Mana, and it was truly a beautiful place. When she was born, wings grew on her back, and people looked upon her as a being that was not human. She was not treated unkindly, or shunned, but people had a very hard time placing the young girl who had wings on her back. Until, of course, Adnai came to see her. Adnai was the Goddess of Light, and held in very high respect among the village that Zephr lived in. Zephr cannot remember their meeting very well, for she was young. She does remember that Adnai took her into her arms and spun her around, exclaiming that she was a very beautiful, very pure little girl. The Goddess of Light spoke with the confused villagers, and from that day on Zephr was regarded as a normal child. The Priests, however, told her that she was a gift from the Supreme God, and her wings would shed light upon anyone who wished it.
Zephr grew up knowing about her wings, and continually asking why she had them. But the day came when Zane, God of Darkness, disappeared. The lands and powers of Mana were suddenly unbalanced, and Zephr felt the call to go to the Capital -- where Adnai resided. Her journey there was short, and nothing interrupted her, but when she reached the Goddess of Light, she found her despairing and in pain. Zephr looked upon her and told her to take heart, for the journey ahead of her would be a long and testing one. She told the Goddess of Light to be strong, and to never forfeit to this shadow covering the land. Adnai looked at Zephr and gave her eternal thanks, and a gift. Taking some of her essence out of her body, she gave it to Zephr to keep. Zephr remained in the Capital with Adnai working to stop this shadow that laid over Mana. But when the entire world had crumbled, not even the angel could stop herself from falling into a sleep. A sleep that lasted her until another world called to her.
