Ziva Suadela's page

Born in the rather lawlessness nation of the Shackles, Ziva hadn't really known her parents. Clearly, she was the bastard child of someone, but the Shackles was a big place, and the nature of such an exotic port meant that her parents realistically could have been anyone.

The chaotic nature of the Shackles had an effect though on Ziva as a girl, installing her a strong sense of adventure. From a young age she had a strong desire to travel, as well as a love of any various artifacts, and she eventually fell in with a group of treasure hunters that desired to search for valuable items in the vast Mwangi Expanse. While the job itself went bad, it was in that vast jungle that Ziva met her companion Vernai, the Giant Mantis that stands at her side. No-one entirely knows what brought the two of them together - but ever since the two have been inseparable. Spending most of her time roaming the lands with her friend, Ziva is remarkably well-travelled, usually preferring isolated area's where Vernai might get less stares - but perfectly comfortable mingling in urban zones where she knows the value of a good tip.
