<br>
<b>Full Name:</b> Zoie (zo-ee) Raine (ray-hn)<br>
<b>Nicknames:</b> No informal nicknames as of yet<br>
<b>Age:</b> Approximately 2,350 years<br>
<b>Gender:</b> Female<br>
<b>Species/Usergroup:</b> Formerly Human, now "Divine Being"; Guardian<br>

<b>Play-By:</b> Midna from Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess<br><br>
<div style="text-align: right; font-family: georgia; font-size: 15px; border-bottom: 2px solid #445599;">APPEARANCE</div>
<br>
<p>With only a glance it is easy to see Zoie is not human. Her beauty is in the eye of the beholder - some would consider her colorful skin, clothing, and vibrant hair + eyes ugly because it is unfamiliar and strange; yet many she has met in the past seem to find more positive aspects to her odd appearance and have learned to appreciate it.</p><p>Zoie's skin is, for the most part, two colors - a patterned mix of ebony black and ivory white. She has purple lips, and elegant black lining her eyes as well as where her eyebrows should be. Her head, face, and neck are white, and by the time the white reaches her sternum it diminishes in an incredibly narrow hourglass shape before expanding slightly on her abdomen. On her left side, the white reaches to just in front of her hip before it curves away, and the white covers her right leg. Her hands are white as well. Some white extends over the left side of her lower back as well, where it meets the black. The black covers the rest of her body, meshing against the white in slight patterns over her chest, back, and arms. Her left leg is totally black, as are her arms up until her wrists (on her forearms), and the black extends to between the lower knuckles of her hands, between the middle and ring fingers before it vanishes.</p><p>The other color seen on her skin is the electric blue of Zoie's unique markings, patterned intricately as the art forms of her home age were. The blue markings are on and around the entirety of her forearms, the high thigh of her right leg, the outside of her left calf, and on her back. The back's intricate pattern, though, is split by a couple of scars from the wounds that killed her when she was human. The largest scar is a jagged line from her left shoulder to right hip, while the second is a thicker, shorter one in the middle of her back over her spine where she was stabbed (a smaller scar can be seen beneath the "v" in her ribcage as well, from where the blade pierced through her abdomen). On the black portion of her skin, the scar is white while on the white of her skin it is black.</p><p>Zoie's eyes and hair are two of her more unique features, so she cares to think, seeing as her irises are large in proportion to the size of the rest of her eye, and are a deep red color. Her pupils are indistinct, compared to most eyes, seeing as they appear to be black shadows settled in the middle of her irises rather than circles or slits with a clear border to the iris. The scleras of her eyes are a warm, golden-yellow as well. Her hair is a bright, fiery orange with yellow tips that reaches her mid-back, even when held up. Let entirely down it falls to her tailbone. When Zoie is angered, though, her hair actually changes color from the orange-yellow to a fuchsia-maroon with white tips. Typically she is seen with part of her hair bound with an iron clip against her sternum, and held up by her headdress and held against the sides of her face with it as well.</p><p>Lastly, Zoie's clothing. She wears an uniquely designed, hooded cloak over her shoulders. It has no front portion, hanging onto her body with just the sleeves that reach her bicep muscles. The hood is held up with her headdress, as the hood has two small, metal-ringed holes in it to slip over pins of the headdress. The cloak also falls to her ankles in the back. Around her hips she has a "woven" belt of metal that supports a half-skirt of the same design her cloak has. It wraps around her left hip, buttocks, and stops just before the back portion of her right hip, and leaves almost all of her right leg visible, as the skirt starts on her front on the left side of her right legs' femur. The half-skirt falls to her ankles. Zoie wears a Penteliko Marble anklet around her right ankle. She also wears a forehead-dress that attaches to her headdress. Both are made of an unknown metal, and the forehead-dress holds a small, cut Ruby that is maroon in color.</p><p>Zoie is tall for a woman, standing at approximately 6 feet 2 inches (approx. 1.87m), and has a slender though curvaceous build.</p><p>For picture-detail on her physical appearance, look <a href="http://i.imgur.com/XlrtC.jpg">here</a>.<p>---***----</p><p>When transformed, Zoie is much smaller, standing at barely three feet even with the black stone "armor" she balances on her head. She closely resembles what many would call an imp, with sharper teeth and fingers, pointed ears, and a generally mischievous expression. Her hair is bound in a tall ponytail on the top of her head, and the black-white division of her skin is slightly smoother and less patterned, and the electric blue markings stay visible. The black stone "armor" covers her left eye, leaving only her right visible beneath the shadow it casts.</p><p>For a side-by-side comparison of her two forms, click <a href="http://i.imgur.com/pS7NGQM.jpg">here</a>.

<div style="text-align: right; font-family: georgia; font-size: 15px; border-bottom: 2px solid #445599;">PERSONALITY</div>
<br>
<p><b>PHILOSOPHICAL & WISE -</b> Having been around for such a long time, she has had countless years to observe anything and everything she desires to, learning about it as she watches when she's not attending to her job of balancing the flow of time and bringing about the subtle change of seasons in the world thanks to said job. In life her tutelage prior to her death resulted in her open-minded personality as well as a mind that knows thought without any boundaries. At times she will drift off into her own world of thought, considering this matter or that, but whenever it comes time to contribute to a conversation she will do so fully and whole-heartedly, using her vast knowledge in any way possible.</p>
<p><b>EMPATHETIC & ACCEPTING -</b> Her open mind has made her sensitive to the emotions and feelings of others, be they positive or negative. Zoie is also capable of understanding the emotional pain another is going through for one reason or another, if she gives herself time to think about the situation and hear what is to be said about it. This helps her understand others and allows her to accept them in any way. She accepts others for who they are and what makes them so, even if she does not agree with their moral standing and reasons for certain actions. She finds it important to accept what is at the core of an individuals being, not what branches out from that and can be skewed by others beyond the protective boundaries of their heart and mind.</p>
<p><b>CARING & PROTECTIVE -</b> Changed by time itself through this world and watching generations of people act one way or another, Zoie has developed a fairly prominent compassionate side for those individuals (be they mortal and unaware of her presence or others like her) she has taken a liking to or allied herself with. Anyone that becomes close to her often is able to feel this more caring side of her personality, contrast to the guarded mask she holds herself to when in the presence of many. She considers it strange that she's developed this side over her time in existence, given that what she remembers of her life before has exhibited her as a more stern, abrasive sort of person, but she is glad for the change, as she feels at peace with both herself and those around her when she cares about them.</p><p>Hand-in-hand with this trait is the urge to protect those important to her however she can. She'll use every bit of magic she can muster in order to fight for the safety and happiness of the ones she considers her friends, and to protect what she is truly passionate about.</p>
<p><b>PROUD & PLAYFULLY DEVILISH -</b> In spite of her usually stoic (in some cases nearly apathetic) outward appearance in reaction to others, she has two more "hidden" sides to her personality. Although many would expect a Guardian to have some pride in everything they do, Zoie's sense of pride has developed from the amount of knowledge and refinement of her powers that she has cultivated over the past millennia that she has existed. She takes great pride in her abilities both as a being which controls time and the change of seasons, her center of acceptance, as well as her more supplementary abilities and her appearance. That being said, even if someone (or something) is not accepting of such abilities, she accepts their standpoint - it's not her job to change or have it, anyway. Also, even though she holds conversation calmly, Zoie has little restraint over her tongue - that is to say, she has a tendency to say exactly what she's thinking at a given time, regardless if someone will like it or not. Answers she gives are straightforward and honest, even if they may seem critical. Most of the time she has no ill intentions from such answers, only intent to be honest. However, she is also able to give a straightforward and honest response, and will do so if its whats best. Her pride also prevents her from saying "no" to those she considers her allies when they need her help.</p><p>It generally comes as a greater surprise to some that she actually has a strong sense of humor beneath her layers of controlled outward appearance. She enjoys having fun, be it slipping through houses of people, watching them in their everyday life, or even using small amounts of her power against others in a "fight" with purely good intentions. Do note, though, that if she's in a more playful mood, some of her tricks may be a bit darker (though not malicious) than what others generally consider the level for a "prank".</p>
<p><b>INDEPENDENT & INTROVERTED -</b> She's not one to ask for help or rely on others even if it's clear she needs such, and generally tries to work on her own. She doesn't spend much time with other Guardians, being more unfamiliar with the others that are like herself. Contrast to how she was in her life, she's more quiet and reserved than most, only talking when needed or when appropriate versus quite often in order to speak her mind. She's generally a drifter, but is perfectly friendly if she does talk to others provided they don't strike a poor first impression. Most of the time, she'll linger in the corners of any sort of gathering unless spoken to. All that's really needed to get past this is the breaking away of her usual "outer layers", as they may be called, to get to know her truer self.</p>

<div style="text-align: right; font-family: georgia; font-size: 15px; border-bottom: 2px solid #445599;">HISTORY</div>
<br>
Zoie was born Lysandra Syntyce in Classical Greece, 358 BC. wip.<br><br>
<div style="text-align: right; font-family: georgia; font-size: 15px; border-bottom: 2px solid #445599;">MAGICAL CAPABILITIES</div>
<br>
<b>LIMITED PRECOGNITION</b> She is capable of seeing something that may happen in the near future (no more than two years), to herself, another person, or something specific in the world. She cannot do so willingly, and usually experiences precognition in her dreams.<br><br>
<b>TIME MANIPULATION & TRAVEL</b> As a controller of time and the seasons, time manipulation comes naturally and is easily her most useful power. She can slow, accelerate, reverse, or even halt the flow of time entirely. However, Zoie considers it incredibly dangerous to do so for both an extended period of time, multiple times, or even at all as it affects the natural order of the world. She is most comfortable manipulating small areas when she does influence time, such as slowing the immediate area around herself. When she affects time, she is capable of making others immune to its effects. The manipulation of time is how she changes the seasons all over the world. That being said, Zoie is capable of time travel for both herself or others (generally only one other person, two at most, as time travel is stressful to her) safely, as she's going back into a time that has already happened. However, it is essential that nothing changes history, as it can change the world in the future as they know it.<br><br>
<b>PREHENSILE HAIR</b> Zoie is able to manipulate her hair into spear-like projections (that can be much longer than her actual hair) to stab at an enemy with pure astral energy (as well as the hair itself). She concentrates the energy in the tips. She can also turn her hair into something resembling a hand in order to grab or take hold of something.<br><br>
<b>LEVITATION</b> Allowing herself to levitate in order to either hover or fly.<br><br>
<b>CREATION OF PORTALS</b> It's her method of traveling both through physical space (from place to place) and time. They differ, though, in that portals meant for traveling through time are in the sky while those to move from one physical location to another are on the ground. They look like <a href="http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100104214916/zelda/images/0/0b/Twilight_Portal.png">this</a>.<br><br>
<b>ENERGY MANIPULATION</b> Zoie is capable of creating and directing waves of energy (from herself, be it physical or magical) strong enough to break metal and clash against other forces that are caused by energy. She uses physical <b>and</b> magical energy to jump through time and change the seasons. <br><br>
<b>ABILITY TO ENCOURAGE ACCEPTANCE IN OTHERS</b> She sees acceptance to be a virtue that all beings - both human and non, adult or child - should have. Acceptance of others different from yourself can decreases hate in the world as well as fear, in some respects. Two things she knows the world would be better without, yet cannot function properly without.
