Zayn

• He was born with a natural affinity to ice magic, but only recently found this out. He currently has ice breath that he can control freely, and touch freezing but it's weak at the moment.
• Can lift up to a ton when pissed off enough.
• Has a strong enough bite he could take a bite out of metal if he wanted.
• Is apparently really hard to kill, he's been stabbed and shot so many times you'd think he'd have died ages ago but he seems to have a strange resilience.
• He can digest almost anything, but despite that he can get very sick still from eating strange things. Just because you can, doesn't mean you should lol.
• He drank 80% of a magic potion that gave him shapeshifting based on dormant genetics. Due to not drinking the whole thing it can be...Wonky looking. He can become "human" though a messed up looking one, grow wings but they might be mismatching, ect...

Zayn is the most well known criminal in Frostpine City, mostly known for acts of extreme arson. He's also a thief, but he's rarely caught stealing as he's very good at planning ahead and deactivating cameras. (Plus he can frost them over now hehe). He's more likely to be getting in trouble for setting shit on fire, and general vandalism. Though most of what he's known for was from when he was younger, as he was, quite frankly, a fucking idiot. He now days over plans for his crimes to try his best to hide his tracks, though over thinking it sometimes makes things more difficult than needed. The only time you'll catch him being more chaotic and noticed when committing crimes is if he's doing stupid shit with others, or he's drunk or high on something. Even for when he isn't caught, most crimes are assumed by those who live in the city to have been Zayn even when it wasn't. Frostpine City boasts itself as a peaceful and happy place, though Zayn personally knows that's all a load of shit. The city is so used to putting up with Zayn's destruction that they actually have an entire system in place to fund repairs when he causes damage. As for why Zayn isn't rotting in prison, well, the head of the city actually finds him entertaining as strange as that is. Keeps him around just to laugh at him.

Though Zayn did go to prison once when he was younger for a couple of years due to a rather extreme incident involving...A lot of stolen christmas trees and presents that were set on fire, which accidently resulted in a whole neighborhood burning down. This was when he was 20, he was lucky he wasn't thrown in for way longer. Man just bullshitting the system because he's too entertaining to a bunch of rich guys lmao. Zayn had to be kept almost constantly muzzled due to his ability to bite metal apart. This got him picked on a lot by the other inmates who generically called him "Muzzle boy".

Zayn easily gets aggressive and angry towards others over even the smallest of things, as usually small things turn into worse issues for him. Growing up in a city that just hates his existence has caused him to be quite avoidant of others. Making a negative remark about his looks tends to get the worst reaction out of him. But any time he is outside of Frostpine City, he tries his best to control his temper better as he's unsure of how people will view him elsewhere. He still deals with negativity and both verbal and physical abuse no matter where he goes, but it isn't quite as bad outside of the city...

Despite his temper he doesn't seek out fights or anything, he tries his best to avoid conflict. But on some days he just wakes up angry at the world, and makes it everyone's issue. Zayn is highly dangerous in a physical fight against the average human, which is why people in Frostpine have actually been advised to deal with him with weapons if needed. Zayn has been shot and stabbed so many times he's lost count, and his body is covered in scars under his fur. He's never had issues with healing though, and he heals faster than a human would. Most gunshots don't even go that deep in to his tough skin and his bones are extremely hard as well. Zayn is strangely avoidant to using weapons himself, though. Despite Zayn being so dangerous...He hates fighting. He even just lets people beat him up sometimes instead of fighting back.

Zayn does rarely try to have friendly interaction towards people in Frostpine, but most just walk away or try to start shit with him. Though it doesn't help that friendly interaction to him is...Saying some of the weirdest shit. He has no proper social skills to save his life and he's extremely unfiltered with his personality towards strangers. Usually you break out the weird shit later on, not at the start, but, well.

Zayn is wacky and chaotic for the large part of his personality, but he can also be caring at times even if what he says isn't the best wording. Zayn is also easily embarrassed and will hold a grudge if a random stranger causes it. Zayn can't really process his emotions well which causes him to be a bit extra with his feelings. Getting excited gives him way too much crack head energy and what should just be slightly upsetting can drive him instead to cry for hours straight, or even of and on for days. Alternatively, he might actually not act emotional at all. It really just depends on the moment.

When it comes to relationships, both friendship and romantic, he's extremely protective. Maybe a bit too protective. This is due to how rarely he's had any sort of relationships with anyone and not wanting to lose them like he did with someone before. He's unfortunately easy to take advantage of and walk all over due to not wanting to lose anyone over the smallest things- Basically, he usually says yes to everything even if he's uncomfortable. Zayn has sadly been taken advantage of a lot, especially in romantic relationships. Though there was nothing actually romantic going on outside of from Zayn's side. A lot of people used him for doing various tasks, some worse cases he's been used for easy sex. and he's been dated just to try and make someone else jealous. He's been cheated on countless times as well. None of this has discouraged Zayn however, and he's hopeful he'll find someone who won't betray him one day. Zayn is extremely affectionate and caring in romantic relationships, though mostly with actions and not words. With friends he's also very caring, but his behavior might be even more chaotic than normal. Of course these things can be combined as well, and depending on the romantic relationship he might be just as chaotic on top of everything else. He tones down the chaos if it's disliked otherwise, which it usually is. Though he's more...Unhappy if he can't be himself. Zayn has also knowingly put himself in to abusive relationships due to his desperation for love, he just denies it to himself. If he thinks someone even has the slightest interest in him despite being a trash person, he'll try it anyways...

Zayn has a fear of the concept of marriage however, as he's terrified of something going wrong at that point and the hell that'll be if it does as you can't easily walk away in marriage.

Due to not being good with words, he struggles to tell people how he feels about them and would rather just give hints with his behavior around them. If he's told directly to back off he will, but if you don't tell him to directly in an obvious way he just...Keeps making an idiot of himself, really. He's a bit too oblivious if you aren't more direct with him.

Zayn has horrible hygiene in most cases, rarely bathing or brushing his teeth even. He only occasionally brushes his fur which means his fur is commonly matted in places. He actually hates having his fur messy though, but it's a pain in the ass to brush alone let alone reach every spot. A little known fact is he loves having someone brush his fur, but only one person had ever done that for him in the past currently.

Zayn is almost constantly digging around in or even sleeping in dumpsters, and paring that with his lack of bathing...He can be a bit unpleasant to be around. He'll be quick to clean up though if he has something important to do, like a goal or someone to hang out with.

Most of Zayn's diet consists of food he steals, food from the trash, or whatever random animal he can get hold of. He only kills wild animals though, and nothing that might be a pet.

Zayn is currently outside of the city, just getting in trouble elsewhere for now.

-I half assed this towards the end im fucking dying here, might be kinda cringe-

Zayn was born in the land of Shadebane, somewhere in the middle of the cursed forest to be more specific. This was of course accidental, because not even the biggest of idiots would have a baby in the middle of a place full of monsters and demons. And it didn't take long for a monster to attack them shortly after Zayn was born. His father had attempted to use a teleportation spell on them all to escape, but due to having unstable magic he somehow only managed to teleport Zayn away. As to where, they'd never find out. His father had no control of where exactly anything was teleported to, and they had been near one of the world connection portals which interfered and had sent Zayn in to the humans realm. The connection portal, being invisible and a thought of only as a myth for that matter, was of course never ventured past by his parents and thus they never did find him...

Zayn had been sent to the center area of Frostpine City, and as it had been christmas eve the city was quite populated at the center that night. People were mostly gathered around the giant christmas tree, and no one had even noticed the strange fluffy baby that had randomly appeared near by. Being more mobile and slightly more capable than a human baby is, Zayn sat nearby staring with his tail swishing rapidly. He was strangely quiet despite all that had already happened in his very short existence. Taking interest in the lights of the tree, he then crawled his way over and past the crowd. At this point people started to notice him. Some people screamed and some mistook him for some sort of wild animal and everyone started yelling to watch out for whatever creature they thought he was. Zayn had eventually reached the base of the tree, but when he touched it something strange happened. The entire thing started to freeze over.

As the ice crept over the tree inch by inch, people backed away and started screaming even more. Once the tree was fully frozen solid, everyone went silent. The lights reflected and sparkled against the frozen branches for a few brief moments...And then the tree shattered, falling in to an large icy pile of decorations and broken branches. At this point most of the crowd had ran away completely. A few people had spotted movement under the icy chunks of what was once a giant tree, and then Zayn popped out of the icy remains. He immediately started screaming and his fur puffed up like an angry cat. Some of the crowd that had still remained started screaming monster before also turing to run. A few people surrounded him, seeing him as dangerous after seeing his magic, and fully had plans to try and kill him.

Thankfully someone grabbed hold of him to protect him, though not exactly out of the kindness of their heart, more so it was to remind everyone that it's illegal to kill the "monsters" that appear in their world as they are just as intelligent as humans, and killing them has the same punishment as killing a human would. After a lot of arguing and threats, Zayn was eventually taken to the authorities that handle beings like him.

As for the whole incident with his magic going off randomly, he'd never hear any mention of it when he's older as people just sort of pretended it never happened, some saying is "bad luck" to talk about, and he'd never even have his magic appear again until much later in his life.

After a lot of paperwork and other stuff, Zayn was thrown in an orphanage to escentially rot, as no human around here wanted to adopt someone like him. And that is in fact what happened. Zayn grew up there, watching other kids come and go, though he never really got along with many of them. They all either thought he was weird, or tried to pet him like some sort of animal which resulted in him trying to or successfully biting them. He also had an obsession with fire and loved to burn random small objects which also weirded out most the others. He got in trouble for that a lot, as one would expect...

This all of course made other kids scared shitless of him so they just avoided him. But there were no kids he hated more than the ones at school. School was a living hell for him, as it was quite impossible to fit in when you were the definition of that one weird kid, both in looks and behavior. He did try to make friends, but it never really went anywhere. It usually just resulted in him getting laughed at or told to bug off. Instead of friends he just ended up with a lot of bullies. Eventually he stopped bothering trying to interact and kept to himself. Though isolating himself so much led to even more odd behavior.

At the age of 15 he accidentally started a fire in the school, which resulted in the whole thing burning down. He wasn't allowed to move to a new school as he was deemed "too much of a risk" after that. He didn't really care much though. The next couple of years he spent trying to get a job, but got rejected or ignored at every place he tried. No one wanted to deal with any risks of working with him. Between the fact he literally bites people and that he burnt down a school, and a mix of other issues.

Once he turned 18, he was kicked out of the orphanage and left to roam the streets. He just dealt with it though, probably better than most would. He just didn't give much of shit. He had no issue getting by just eating trash or whatever else he got a hold of. He'd even hunt down and eat animals raw. The man didn't know how to cook as he wasn't really taught any useful skills, no one could ever be assed to help him. What Zayn did know was only what he taught himself. He knew how to drive, though maybe not the greatest. And he had only drove cars he "borrowed"...Zayn started to steal things to get by, but he wasn't very careful about it and being that he looks like, well, himself, he was easy to identify and arrest. Eventually he became more cautious and careful, and by the age of 20 he was rarely getting caught stealing. The fires, however, well, they just knew. The people in charge of the city were actually letting him get away with shit for their own entertainment. Apparently having some arsonist monster in the city was...Funny to them? God knows how or why. Zayn would most often start fires to cause a distraction as well, being crazy enough to run into burning buildings to grab things and get out.

Zayn eventually bumped in to one of his old classmates much to his displeasure. They invited him to a christmas party for...Some reason. Zayn never really participated in holidays outside of anything that was forced at school, though christmas in particular always annoyed him as a thing with how obsessed everyone in Frostpine was with it. Some of these fuckers kept decorations up all year even. He found it all obnoxious, but he decided to go. Maybe people will be nice to him for once?

Yeah...They weren't. He should have knew better. What happened that night is what caused him to have an extreme hatred of the holiday. (i dont want to write this part it's really pretty fucked so uh)

So after the most unpleasant party of his life, he got the fuck out of there. But he wasn't letting them all get away with what they did, hell no. He came up with a plan to ruin all of their fun. At around midnight when everyone in the area was asleep, most of the people at the party being from one neighborhood, Zayn quietly and carefully broke into their houses. He picked the locks of their doors with ease, and he took nearly every christmas related object from their homes. From trees and present to whatever else he could grab before waking anyone.

He threw everything he grabbed in to one pile as he went along in the middle of the area and covered it all with gas, and eventually most people in the area had woke up and noticed stuff was gone, and they found Zayn outside standing near everything with a shitty grin. He was waiting for them to wake up and notice, and once enough people did notice, he struck a match and lit the shit on fire. Zayn just stood there laughing like some maniac while everyone watched in horror, something in his mind seemed to have snapped finally. You can only put up with people's bullshit for so long.

But, something he didn't intend to happen occured. The fire jumped to the grass and started to spread, eventually setting the whole place ablaze. People were running and screaming for dear life, and Zayn stood there in the road watching as the flames consumed everything. He...Wasn't sure how to feel about this actually. He's burned down businesses but never houses. But then he started laughing again, or that is until he heard someone screaming inside a burning house. One person didn't make it out yet. Zayn stopped laughing and thought for a moment, before running towards the house and making his way inside the blazing building. It didn't take him long to find and drag the person out, though his fur got singed in the process. By the time he was out with them, the fire department and police had finally showed up.

He had left the now unconscious person on the street for someone else to deal with, and he was now met with cops surrounding him with guns pointed in his direction. He shrugged and only stated "I don't kill people" before being hit with barrage of gunfire. Clearly they kill people. Or maybe not. Zayn had hit the ground, hit in several places that should have been fatal, but then he sat up and gave them a dazed look. How the fuck was he alive? The police arrested him, though they seemed terrified of him now. He was taken to a hospital where it was found the bullets barely even went in. Most were still at the surface. At this point it was becoming more obvious just how much of a threat this furball could be.

While usually he was let off after a few days for his crimes, there was too much damage and outrage this time and it was decided he'd be sent to prison, though only for 2 years which was...Quite lenient. Zayn didn't really have any arguments, he just accepted it. He just can't give a fuck half the time now days. Whatever happens happens.

Ironically he probably had a better time there than in the normal public. Most of the other prisoners just left him be, outside of a bit of teasing about the fact he was made to wear a muzzle and had his claws trimmed back and capped to prevent issues. For some unholy reason this was also the place he ended up dating someone for the first time in his life. Life is weird sometimes. This was the first, and currently only, person he ever could say he loved. All his other relationships past this one have been trash, kind of ironic.

Unfortunately this wouldn't be someone Zayn would ever see outside this place, as the guy was on death row for a murder he didn't commit. Or so he claimed to Zayn. Was it true or a lie? That'll never be known, but Zayn believed him.

Zayn was still around by the time that day came, and he ended up breaking the cell door open in an attempt to run after them in some sort of crazed "rescue attempt" in his head. He didn't get very far, and ended up having a few months added to his stay time. He was well behaved up until then which might be why it was a bit lenient over the fact he literally broke a cell door open. He was put in something a bit more durable after that however...This entire incident is what ended up making him clingy and over-protective later in life, losing the actual first person who cared about him, and that he cared about, made him terrified that it'd happen again one day. He's scared to actually get close to someone, and even more so, to love someone again.

Once Zayn finally was released, he just sort of went back to what he usually did. He got more skilled at theft and other crimes over the years as well. He was in and out of jail though at times, because of course he was. But it was usually when he was more reckless like being drunk or high as shit on whatever. He didn't usually get caught when he was in his right mind. He eventually ended up living in some cave a couple miles outside of the city, sometimes staying there for days or even weeks before showing his face back in the city. The isolation at times started to drive him a bit insane, though he really doesn't notice.

Currently in the present he's...well, he's Zayn. Only he knows what's going on in that head. He recently has been away from the city for a long while which is new to him, as for how that will effect him, only time will tell. It's a bit overwhelming for him currently as he's been so used to living the same life day after day.
