Personality:
Zya is a perfect match with her dark powers, she enjoys spooky things, and is extremely brave and doesn't scare easily. She is very intolerant of everyone and she will not hesitate to show it, usually with rolling her eyes or just looking uninterested. She prefers to spend her time listening to music or reading. If she does happen to like you there is only a slight difference in the way she acts, she is actually responsive and seems interested in what you are saying and isn't rude.
She is rather humorless and doesn't enjoy small talk. Though she will enjoy it if its about the things she really does enjoy. She is closed off from people and doesn't like to be bothered, and is mostly like this so she doesn't get hurt again like when she lost her brother. It also is from the years of verbal abuse from her parents which made her stronger mentally and not sensitive, but this also made her insensitive to others. She doesn't hold her tongue and is really disrespectful or mean, but half the time its her just speaking the truth from her view, or her words are out of annoyance. She seems rather rebellious and she is looked at as aloof. She can sometimes be asocial but it's not always hostile.
Being self-reliant she doesn't ask for help, even if it is something that could kill her. She depends on no one. When someone does help her she will not thank them instead she will get mad at them.
Though she seems like she wouldn't know the first thing about being flirty, sometimes she does it if she knows someone likes her, mostly just because she likes the games, but after she gets bored it will be very easy to tell.
She can be hot-headed though most the time getting that angry is too much energy she would care to waste, she can get very angry rather quickly and it will escalate to a physical confrontation half the time and at that point, she is irrational and doesn't have her thoughts in order.
For the most part, Zya is hard to love, hard to get along with and starts things because she can. But maybe if you got to know her or pushed for the friendship she will be sweeter and more kind towards you.
Appearance:
Zylah stands at about 5' 4" with a slender body. Her hair is long-falling to about her lower back and usually is straight but occasionally she will curl her hair. It's dark brown/nearly black, and her eyes are a green/hazel. Skin is lightly sun-kissed, and surprisingly she has no scars from the encounter with the evil shadow she deals with. Though she may have a few new scratches or bruises show up.
History:
Zylah was born into an abusive. she struggled with what lurked in the shadows, she had no control and often found herself with lack of sleep and being attacked in the night. It was like she had summoned something that didn't like her very much, she secretly still has these issues occasionally. Her parents didn't really believe that she was being attacked at night, even though she would come out every morning with bruises and scratches on her.
Then it got worse, see she had an older brother, one who was kind and wasn't like her parents, he cared for her and spent most of his time with her when he was able, but the shadow seemed to not like it because he wasn't able to do anything with him there. He went out one night, to go to the city with his friends and got into a fatal car accident, he died instantly. She has no idea if the shadow was the reason for it, but she was devastated. At that point, she became closed off, from herself and everyone else around her. She became numb and put up very large and tall walls to protect herself. She used to be very kind and nice, but now she doesn't want to be bothered with anyone or anything.
She was tired of her parents and so she ran away, finding herself here, a place where maybe she could be herself and not be judged.
Power/Ability:
Zya's power matches her entirely, she can create/manipulate darkness/shadows, with that she can engulf her body and become a shadow and travel through shadowed areas or the night, but only if the two places are connected with darkness. She is able to create familiars with the shadows but usually sticks with wolves, even though she hates dogs.
The darkness just looks like black plumes of smoke but has no smell or heat, and they don't cause issues with breathing and disappears with her command, but can be made to a solid.
