Zenith Everhart

Zenith Everhart is a well known robotics engineer and an amiable man who was recognized for his skills and past occupation that made him an individual respected by many, yet also suspiscious to some.

He lives in the outskirts of Fortress 39 of Maschinora where he inherited a house lot there from his late uncle named Maro Everhart, it was a perfect place to live since he prefers a more quiet atmosphere over a bustling one.

During his late teens to middle 20's, Zenith Everhart was not yet the kindly robotics engineer that everyone knew and adored, he was a different person... Instead of hand tools he held weapons, instead of bolts and nuts he held bullets, he was a highly respected yet also feared individual: a Dire Hunter, one that was called by the codename Azurite.

Dire Hunters are paramilitary soldiers that work for the science and technology organization called Salvation, they specialize in using technologically advanced artillery and were known for their agility, speed and excellent senses used in order to take down Hirveols; beastly threats that emerged from the war. During the 3rd Hirveol Mass Attack, Dire Hunters aided in eradicating the countless swarms of Hirveols in order to prevent them from reaching and breaching the underground settlements called Grand Lairs, and also to rescue the people who were caught in the attack. The swarm however was too much for them to handle, so the Dire Hunters had no choice but to retreat, Azurite on the other hand refused to retreat and attempted to save a family who were trapped in a rubble, but his efforts caught him instead in a fatal accident where he acquired multiple bone fractures and a spinal injury, due to its severity and with his life in risk, Salvation's last resort to save him was by giving him a prototype cybernetics to replace the damaged part of his spine. Months passed and with him successfully recovering, he received the news from his commander that he was discharged from being a Dire Hunter... Azurite was a very capable soldier, the most skilled one they have ever since his uncle, they gave him the cybernetics all because they can't lose such a fighter like him, they wanted him back in the force immediately, but it was no help... his cybernetic replacement turned out to be fragile, it couldn't handle heavy combat and could break easily, which could lead to bigger health issues, or worse, death. Zenith cannot fight in such a state anymore. To his commander's surprise however, Zenith doesn't seem bothered with being discharged, he explained that he would, at least, want to start a new life away from the battlefield.

In the present, he works as a robotics engineer in Machinora and abroad, barely using his skills as a Dire Hunter and keeping all of his weapons hidden, only using them in case of an emergency. He also had a little change of demeanor and outward appearance, as Azurite he was more serious and fearsome, but now he is someone more warm and approachable, it was who he truly is anyways.

Some time later, he met and saved an abandoned disabled young girl from a Hirveol breach on a Grand Lair. Unexpectedly that sassy little girl became a part of his life, he became a foster father since then, and it sometimes shocks everyone upon knowing.
