Zaya (ZAY-uh) was raised in a community of goliaths in one of the biggest cities in the world: Bazagon City. She has a large family with ties to the a few prestigious institutions. Her father works for a power individual, and her oldest brother is a in a ludus guild.

Growing up, Zaya studied briefly under a druid before taking up archery in the hopes of competing in the Great Games. Zaya hasn't inherited her brother's talent or showmanship, which is something that has put a bit of a chip on her shoulder.

Rather than continue trying to follow in her brother's footsteps, Zaya chose to follow a friend, Nerkui, who she owes a debt to. He had an idea that Zaya might be able to prove herself another way. Now, they are looking to join a crew and see what wealth and glory may be earned in the Vispelion isles. Her first foray as a navigator with the Ace of Hearts was a lucrative start.

Zaya is around 7 feet tall with sky blue eyes and long, light brown hair done up into multiple braids held with beads. Her skin is pale gray with a faint blue tint and hazel mottling. She wears a chain shirt and carries a pair of swords and a pair of bows.
