Vivacious, charming and oft-times a little too lighthearted for her own good. In spite of the charm, or perhaps, because of it, things tend to go backwards for her. If she were strictly human they'd say she was a klutz, clumsy or a myriad of other words to describe someone that things just tend to not work out for. Others, not so kind would say she's an accident waiting to happen. Be it coincidence, fate, or just dumb luck....danger has a way of following her.
Descended from a long line of 'genies'. They knew she was trouble shortly after she came into being.
Though it was never specifically said, it didn't take long for the others to realize she wasn't like everyone else. Instead of a small rain shower, she'd call down a storm, or worse yet...a drought.
Little things like that followed her around for the first several hundred years. From Persia she ended up in Spain and from there, through an additional series of myth-adventures, she ended up in the New World.
She was always up for an adventure, finding excitement in travel and seeing new places. Unfortunately, her adventure sealed her within the ancient lamp brought from Spain by Juan Diego de la Vorda.
Though she'd warned him about the problems of 'magic', his insistence confined her into her lamp and ....well...no one knows what happened to him or his men.
Could help be coming in the form of an older Jinn, one that cautioned Zoe about using magic long ago? Can Zaasih (older female Jinn) or Zaidin (older male Jinn) help her? Or will Zoe be the unwitting pawn in a power play among the jinn?
After several hundred years she is found...'accidentally' by Marius Saint Germaine who now has control of her.
Age: Several hundred years (appears in her late 20s)
Appearance: Zoe has an ethereal quality to her, with flowing hair the color of molten bronze that seems to shimmer in the light. Her eyes are a deep, otherworldly aqua that glimmer with mischief, betraying her lighthearted nature. Her skin has a slightly iridescent sheen, and her smile is captivating, often disarming those around her. She dresses in flowing, colorful fabrics that seem to change hues with her mood, typically adorned with intricate patterns reminiscent of her Persian heritage.
Personality Traits:
Vivacious: Zoe's spirit is infectious, and she breezes through life with enthusiasm and a thirst for adventure.
Charming: She has a knack for engaging others and making friends, often seeing the silver lining in any situation.
Lighthearted: While her cheerful disposition is endearing, it can sometimes lead to her underestimating the seriousness of a situation, resulting in unintended chaos.
Accident-Prone: Coincidental mischief follows Zoe, making her a catalyst for chaos rather than the calm she often wishes to bring.
Adventurous: With a wanderlust that spans centuries, Zoe loves exploring new places and can’t resist the lure of a fresh experience.
Background: Zoe hails from a long line of Djinn, known for their magical abilities. However, from an early age, it became clear that her powers were unpredictable. Where others could summon brief showers to nourish crops, Zoe unwittingly conjured storms or droughts. Her penchant for calamity was apparent early on, leading her family to see her as an embodiment of chaos.
Her journey through time took her from ancient Persia to Spain, where she encountered numerous adventures, only to find herself sealed within a cursed lamp by Juan Diego de la Vorda—a result of her attempts to warn him about the consequences of magic. The nature of her power made it difficult for her to maintain relationships, and the consequences of her antics ultimately left her isolated. Current Situation: After centuries trapped in the lamp, Zoe is inadvertently freed by Marius Saint Germaine, a modern-day man with his own mysteries and potential. Despite being trapped, she is now faced with the challenges of her freedom, along with the realization that her chaotic presence may invoke jealousy or ambition from other Djinn, such as Zaasih and Zaidin. Could they be allies or adversaries?
Goals and Motivations: Zoe yearns for true freedom and redemption for her past mistakes. She's determined to prove that she can control her magic and use it for good rather than letting it spiral out of control. Her quest involves discovering her true potential while navigating complex relationships with the other Djinn who have their own agendas. Ultimately, Zoe seeks to find a place where her vivacity and charm can shine without leading to calamity, seeking redemption in the process.
Potential Conflict: With her clumsy tendencies and magical mishaps, Zoe will navigate conflicts with other Djinn, while trying to resist being a pawn in their power struggles. Marius, her new master, may also bring challenges of his own, leading her to question whether she can truly break free and redefine her destiny.
Will Zoe conquer her chaos and prove the Djinn legacy wrong, or will she remain a jumbled mix of accidents in a world that sees her as nothing more than trouble?
