Born into the Stonehart tribe Zenix entered this world as an Abandoned. They were groomed to become the next shaman from a young age and this defined their youth. They spent their days studying the spirit realm and esoteric history and knowledge. Often this meant spending time with the then Shaman Mohaka. He was kind to Zenix but still strict in his tutorage. Zenix spent little time with the other children and thus missed out on many social lessons. As Zenix got older they spent less and less time with people and more and more time in the wilderness befriending animals, in particular a small bear cub. Zenix called them Big Paw to help encourage them to grow larger. Zenix would lose their innocence when one day they were held down and beaten by some of the other children. They spit on Zenix, said nasty and mean things and injured them badly, so bad as to leave several scars all over their body. Permanent reminders of the potential cruelty of humanity. Now very cynical about people but idealistic in the resolve to be different from them. Zenix left the tribe after their mother died. Zenix had had enough suffering in their life with the tribe. So they left and wandered with Big Paw (Who had indeed grown.) for a bit. One day Zenix happened upon a trapped hound. She released it only to discover it belonged to one Lady Arianna Stonewood. Arianna thanked Zenix and gave them a sweet treat. Intrigued by this wonderful foodstuffs Zenix asked to camp with Arianna and her guard for the night hoping to have more sweets come morning. Alas the sweets never came but Zenix did make a new friend of sorts. Zenix has travelled with Arianna and arrived at her estate where Zenix was offered a position as house mystic. Zenix is still considering, but has been promised sweets.

Zenix is medium height and built fairly well. They are covered in scars and have tough and calloused skin from wandering in the wilderness. They have wavy hair and tend to wear clothes in earthy tones and made from leather and fur with bone necklaces and feathers in their ears. Zenix does not shave, only adding to the confusion surrounding their gender. Zenix wears varying designs on their face made from mud and blood.

Often forgets what they are doing or saying. Frequently befuddled by normal human interactions. Prone too sharing too much, yet revealing very little. Likes to spout proverbs at people. Loves nature and is often found wandering through the woods. Never reveals their gender and will avoid the issue. Engages in alchemy as a hobby, making poultices and potions. Is perhaps a bit too assertive.
