Nascherazire, Zhahryar Dunyazade
The Visionary Scientist
[ AT A GLANCE ]
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Height & Weight: 5'11" & 145 lbs
Hair & Eye Color: Shoulder-length ash white hair & Crimson red eyes.
Positive Traits:
Straight Forward - Zazi has never understood the necessity of lies. More times than not they led to escalation of the situation the vested person tried to avoid. As such, when she speaks she tells the truth as she see's it. She may not always reveal everything that is on her mind, but if she feels it should be voiced she will do so appropriately. Although considerate to the feelings of others, if forced she can be brutally honest about any given situation.
Intuitive - Zazi has a sharp intuition. Something that her mother called a "Gift from her past life." For Zazi, a small rustle in the pit of her stomach just before she makes a correct decision. She's learned over time to trust her intuition as it has gotten her out of as many bad situations as it has gotten her into. She finds the actual feeling of her intuition enjoyable.
Whimsical - If you ever have the opportunity to engage Zazi in playful conversation, take it. Her antics and wordplay are pure entertainment, and is sure to entertain any who choose to listen to her tales. This is a woman who's presence when speaking will bring a smile to your face, and eager for the next word or tale. From her body language and pantomimes, to her colorful use of words and verbage.
Determined - Zazi is very set in her ideals. What she chooses to believe is completely up to her rational view of the situation. Only when new evidence is presented to her does she slowly shift her view, and then make the choice to change her mind or dismiss the new evidence. This determination when applied to training or her career, has shown the fruits of her labor. Working up a sweat when just practicing, or training until her body gives out from exhaustion.
Flexible - No, not her body. Well yes, that too, but when faced with adversity she's not one to shy away from the challenge. She enjoys ever changing scenarios. Personally, she feels if everything goes as predicted then life loses some of it's meaning. So with each new change brings a new meaning to the life she lives.
Confidence - Zazi is confident in herself. Both as a woman and a Quincy. She's not too hung up on the idea of being the strongest Quincy alive, nor is she too hung up over being most well received Idol in the east. She is simply content with being herself to the best of her ability. She doesn't question herself at all, but does take time in making life decisions.
Negative Traits:
Defensive - Zazi is not one to take kindly to comments or antics that jeopardize her character. She quickly and rather rudely address the situation with full expression of her feelings and, in some cases, her weapons. This tends to get her into situations with odds vastly out of her favor, and some people claim that this is the reason why she got so many scars in the first place.
Bigot - Zazi is a bigot. She holds fast to the old ideals of the Quincy. Believing that all Hollow are evil and should be eradicated, and simultaneously holds a grudge against Shinigami for their own lack of initiative in controlling the Hollow menace that wreak havoc on defenseless humans. She views Shinigami as weak willed and incompetent. Either that or they're just too lazy to do their jobs properly.
Guarded - Zazi seldom trusts people. The vast majority of people have schemes and plots that are in place only to benefit them. As such, she often tries to shut people out to keep herself from being hurt or taken advantage of. She strongly believes that people as a whole are dumb, left alone they would stampede over the edge like a herd of cattle.
Blunt - Zazi can be incredibly blunt. Speaking her mind can be a dangerous thing, and at times she may find herself speaking before her brain has enough time to filter out the raw thoughts. Often catching people off guard, angering, or embarrassing them. Although she will never apologize for her statements, she may feel a bit of remorse for their reaction toward them.
Unapologetic - Zazi will never apologize. Simple as that. What she says. What she does can not be taken back, and an apology for the past makes no difference in the present. Therefore, to apologize would be to try and unwrite the past, which would illogical and irresponsible. She'd sooner move on than apologize.
Loyalties: She's loyal to Quincy, but more so to herself.

[ ON THE SURFACE ]
Physical Description: Zazi has a tall and straight-backed posture, with shoulders held back; and a flamboyant and confident walking style. Being taller than average, the woman has a habit of looking down on people, both practically and theoretically. It should be noted that she has curves. If it's anything that Zazi has plenty of, it's curves. An hourglass frame, that packs on lean muscle in her back, legs, and shoulders. Graced with long limbs and tapered waistline, her movements regardless of the setting appear to graceful. Just like most people from her family, her skin is tanned; but to a limited extent. One would assume her body to be flawless, but that is far from the case. Once Zazi sheds her clothes the true strength of her body is made apparent. Scars are scattered across her body, from her life of training and forced combat scenarios. Specifically, the regions of scars are located upon her lower back, her shoulders, forearms, her obliques, and parts of her legs. The scars that line her body are deep and rather disfiguring when not concealed with proper foundation and cover up make up. It was only thanks to the miracle of cosmetics that she was able to land and hold down a career as a professional model. The largest scar she possesses is one that stretches from her left shoulder blade all the way down to her right hip. A reminder to keep composure in battle and also a testament to the savagery of the hollow breed.
Her hair when she is in simple civilian clothing is rather plain. She allows her hair to drape down to her back, and sports overhanging bangs. However, when she dons her Quincy uniform her hair is kept in a certain manner to maintain her air of nobility. Being brought up as a pureblood Quincy, she has been forced to maintain an appearance as such. She wraps the bulk of her hair in a white veil. White tribal tattoo bands decorate the flesh of her torso, arms, and legs. Her eyes are a marvel in themselves. As no person in her lineage has possessed her eye color, and was only possible in part to the mix of eye colors present in her lineage. They shine with a remarkable hue portraying the setting sun in all its glory. They rest in the shade, but in the light they shine brightly. Despite her harsh upbringing, her eyes hold a vast depth of joy with not even a glimmer of sorrow. Even when tears fall from them, they appear to be content in and never wanting.
Despite her feminine frame, she seldom indulges in the luxuries of pampering. She bathes in unscented products to keep those with an excellent sense of smell from tracking her. Her nails are maintained short, and left uncolored except for the occasional black coat. The same goes for her feet, which are kept in line with her nails. Her clothing outside of her Quincy apparel, are fairly extravagant mostly due to her inability to comprehend what is socially acceptable. As such, her clothing may vary from pink blouses, white miniskirts, and leggings to a floral gold, and black French gown. A testament to her beauty as whatever she so chooses to wear is a thing of beauty when adorned upon her flesh. However, Zazi feels at home when in uniform. A white sports top with black straps and red trimming. A similar skirt wrapped around her waist colored in identical colors, with small ruffles. Her footwear varies from black boots to barefoot.
Zazi's voice is as deceptive as it has the allure of light and sweet, but there is an underlining air of ice that clings to the ends of her words. Her voice carries an accent that hits the ear, but simply can not be pinned down. If one were to try it would likely be a combination of a French, a British, and a Japanese accent rolled into one.
Spiritual Description: To imagine Zazi's Reiryoku, you simply must think of a lake being filtered through a purification plant that produces only the finest distilled water. It should be no surprise that her Reiatsu isn’t wild nor powerful, but flippant. She views excessive force on Reiatsu is a waste of one’s energy and as such hers naturally feels as if a warm ocean breeze washes over your body. The gentle nature of it almost instills a feeling of serenity before they are caught by the fragrant smell of roses resting lightly on the breeze.
On the occasions she does release her Reiatsu in such an outward display, one would take note of the petal-like reishi she exudes reminiscent of a ranbow. Unlike most, her Reiatsu doesn’t cling to her body. It radiates from her like the eye of a storm. However should she lose her composure, her Reiatsu will cling heavily to her body emitting multi-colored cracks of electricity that arc from her body. This is her most physical demonstration of her intent to kill.
[ BEHIND THE EYES ]
Personality: Zhahryar is your typical passive, tsundere girl...or at least overall she is. However, there is a sort of ’emptiness’ about her. She is relatively reserved, and is more of an observer. She is very intelligent, which is reflected by her straight A grades throughout her years in school and her ability, and love of breaking everything she sees or experiences down to its core elements and finding the connections between them as it helps her learn quicker. She’s one of the few people that loves school and enjoys learning since it also gives her a means to cope with her problems for a while; much like a hobby does the same to anyone else. Her other hobbies include reading, baking, gardening, and picking flowers. Aside from her hobbies, she enjoys walking, cookies, coffee, juice, music, dancing, singing, soda, and various other sweets and pastries. Despite her quiet appearance, she can be talkative and is generally pretty content in general and in life, even though she has a relatively troubled past where her father sacrificed himself to save her from a Hollow. Over the years, Zharhryar has come to terms with her loss and will usually only be troubled by his memory when she is already upset.
Zazi usually doesn’t approach or start conversations with someone unless she has a genuine interest in the person or it’s absolutely necessary. Despite this, she has no problem talking to someone who approaches her, since she isn’t normally shy. When talking to her, at first she’s distant, speaks few words, or has her mind elsewhere. Eventually, as time passes and she gets to know the person and has grown more comfortable with them, she becomes more open and speaks more often without having them to start first. But, this will be affected heavily by her mood; where a good mood will have her acting normally, a bad mood or being upset as in depression will make her cold, and/or extremely quiet which will take longer to get her to open up. On the other hand, regardless of person or situation, she will quickly get defensive if she is accused of something, and will fight avidly to prove otherwise. She also has a tendency to treat others as they are treating her. She dislikes obnoxious, rude, arrogant, self-centered, self-respecting people quite a bit. In fact, she isn’t impressed by “cool” guys or guys trying to impress her with acts of prowess or physique and dislikes it more when they try hitting on her for the purpose of getting her in bed, although she doesn’t mind playful flirting.
Zazi doesn't actively seek a boyfriend, but has had crushes on guys before so it’s possible she may develop a crush on a guy that has a good personality. She has her own philosophy on love and bases her standards on what her ideal relationship is. As such, she tends to fall quickly for a guy that can make her laugh, can comfort her when she's upset, especially when they see her as a person, not just a sex object, and is also sweet just to name a few traits. However, she still doesn't know how to approach guys she has a crush on and tends to become flustered and shy, this being one of two circumstances that she is actually like this. The other circumstance is when she receives praise or compliments (non-perverted) as she isn't used to it and actually likes it. She keeps a small circle of close friends that know of her powers and have accepted her, as they are long-time friends and it takes her a while to tell anyone that she has Quincy powers. As such, she considers any one that gets that close to her to be a family member. However, she does have a lot of acquaintances and friends that talk to her occasionally and doesn’t mind making more friends of any ethnicity.
With a well-developed body, She does her best to keep in shape, taking advantage of being a Quincy to exercise and master her powers at the same time. She spent time dancing to improve her flexibility, and did some sports in high school for overall fitness such as tennis and volleyball. She also prefers to eat low-fat foods, but secretly has a sweet tooth, her main weakness being vanilla-frosted cupcakes. She is also one of those girls that have the habit of spending hours grooming themselves to make sure that her hair is silky smooth as well as straight. Thankfully, she rarely needs or uses make-up on her face so it doesn't take up more time. However, the preparation for her photoshoots or appearances do drastically take longer since she needs to conceal her various scars. So with all the things she does to keep healthy and maintain her figure, it isn’t surprising that she’s content about her appearance, but isn't conceited about it.
Goals & Achievements: To become the strongest Quincy, and to drag her kin with her to the top.
[ GUARDIAN ANGEL ]
Quincy Cross: A black tungsten band with silver beveled edges, this black wedding band has a cross between matching laser engraved tribal designs. It once belonged to her father, and now is Zharyrar's inspiration.
Spirit Weapon: Zazi's does not possess a spirit weapon as she finds the entire process a waste of reishi and concentration. She prefers to stick closely to her custom Seele Schneider's.
Schrift:
V — "The Visionary"
Every Quincy, whether they're aware of it or not, possess a Schrift, an idea that describes their unique abilities to others in a letter and a word. For Zazi, this is "V — The Visionary".
This Schrift describes that innate nature of Zazi's powers. The Visionary is the embodiment of forward progression in both fantasy and reality. If they push hard enough those two concepts can be one in the same. What this Schrift can do is only limited by what the possessor can envision. As such, there is no true definition of what the visionary is or can be. For Zazi, she hones her power to shine through her eyes. In her mind, being a visionary means having the strength to see the progress with her own two eyes. As such as her powers activates, her eyes light up with the intensity of her power.
First Manifestation
Zazi' first manifestation of this Schrift is the unique projection of her reiryoku into a dome around herself that gives her immediate control of nearly everything inside it. Within this space, she has the unique ability to rip apart and put things together as she see's fit. With this power, she can combine things that would not normally be possible such as fusing atoms with reishi. However, she's can only effect things without their own Reiatsu. Zazi has dubbed this Eurynome, The Goddess of all Creation.
[ LEGACY CREATED ]
Origin: Isao, like his father, continued to work in Karakura town as a businessman and earned a good amount of money, mainly giving it to the community, but set aside a large portion for his family. However, unlike his ancestors, he was aware of the Quincy massacre and passed down the story to Quirin along with the near-completed Quincy Cross at the age of 9. Quirin, on the other hand, did not follow in the footsteps of his father and grandfather and instead focused on training his Quincy powers, only ever deciding to embed his gem after his father bought a pre-cut gem and asked him to do it. Quirin's behavior stemmed from his determination to master his powers to hide them better and to protect the community, though his training created concern although several generations had lived here without any incident.
Isao, unfortunately, died a bit sooner than his ancestors, at the age of 75, leaving all of his money and possessions to Quirin who was now 30, which is the only time since the massacre that a parent had died without a grandchild. This leaves Quirin on his own, as all the females were already family in his mind. It was here that Quirin decided that it was time for a new beginning and departed from the apartment building, using the money from his father to buy a decent house in Karakura and settled in, meeting Rei Tsukina in a park while he was training one day. Their relationship ignited quickly and soon married, Rei giving birth to Zazi at the age of 32.
Zhahryar Dunyazade Nascherazire was not only the first girl to be born into the family, but she was also the only Quincy out of the community to be born in a normal, decent home. Rei, being aware of Quirin's powers, took care of her when Quirin was away, having finally decided to get a job to support the family. Rei made sure to keep an eye on her daughter anytime she was outside, making sure she wasn’t out for too long to avoid a Hollow attack and/or Shinigami attack. When Zazi became 5 years old, she had begun to wander around a bit more and was able to leave to farther distances since she could return on her own rather than have to be carried off by Rei. However, when she was out one day, a massive Adjuchas Hollow sighted her and attacked her. Her father, having just returned home, used his bow to try to stop the Cero that the Hollow had fired and only barely managed to block it. Zazi by now had run off before other Hollows were attracted to the area and also began to attack Quirin.
Quirin fought valiantly, taking several fatal cero shots, taking down the Hollows before he could move no longer. A frightened and crying Zazi ran up to her father and pleaded for him to get back up, but Quirin couldn’t. Only faintly smiled as he extended his hand towards his daughter, placing the bloodied Quincy cross in her hand and with that same hand, stroked her cheek, “Don’t forget who you are,… There is a power within you...You just.. need to find it…” He managed to say before his body succumbed to his injuries. While her father had passed on by now, she silently promised to never forget who she was and to find the power that her father had spoken off. Rei found her soon after, crying on Quirin's body with a pool of blood all around her. It took Rei several minutes to pry her from the corpse and allow paramedics to cart the body away and prepare for funeral services.
By now, Zazi had just entered school and began her studies before the funeral took place. They never stated what the cause of death was and assumed it was just a freak explosion or accident that had claimed his life. She was still too young to fully grasp the emotional toll of her father’s death, though it affected her just as it would any other person. In school, she became anti-social, not wanting to make friends. She was the type of girl that everyone would point and stare at, labeling her as a loner. She was always left out of group activities and never attended field trips as Rei usually didn’t allow her being in the open. At the age of 8, she also unlocked her Quincy abilities through her Cross and succeeded in summoning her bow. The discovery of her Quincy powers gave her something to strive for and to complete in her lifetime. Besides the cross, the power of the Quincy was the only thing that her father had given her and helped her feel closer to her father. Rei, on the other hand, worried for her and encouraged her not to bother with the Quincy cross and instead use other means of combat to defend herself.
Rise to Power: Zazi broke out of her depressive state finally and had begun to socialize a bit more among new students as the people who knew her didn’t want to befriend her. She found refuge in homework and tests that occupied her mind and helped her to cope with her past. In her free time, she was either doing homework or practicing how to use Reishi and some forms of hand-to-hand combat. Despite the troubling years before, Rei and Zazi lived through the years peacefully without incident. However, in one encounter, she was ambushed by a Hollow and had only managed to summon her bow long enough to get off a lucky shot and pierce the creature’s mask and snap its head in half. Despite what one may think, this incident didn’t frighten her, but rather encouraged her to keep practicing as she had come close to dying simply because she didn’t have enough experience yet. It was also at this time that Rei finally told her the story of the Quincy Massacre, which had also sent a shock through her system as it brought to light everything that had happened and why she was so guarded as a toddler. While it brought her down to depression for a few months, her resolve to keep her promise to her father grew and soon returned to striving to obtain that goal.
After a few more years, it was pretty apparent that the Shinigami were no longer hunting the Quincy and many of the Quincy that had stayed in the apartment complex moved into the town and began to lead normal lives. Zazi as well, now a beautiful teenager, slowly gained a small circle of close friends that she regularly speaks to in school. She was still a Grade A student, with a scholarship already lined up for her to go to a university of her choice. With the years that had passed, she had also gained some proficiency in the use of Reishi, being able to summon a bow and arrows freely though her aim was questionable. Her closest friends also helped her with regular sparring and some even taught her new moves for hand-to-hand combat, allowing her to become proficient with hand-to-hand than any other skill.
Call to Action: As time went by, her mother, Rei, played a smaller and smaller role in her life, though she still provided support and love as she saw that she had matured sufficiently to not need guidance. Rei had also given her a ring, a black wedding band, a few years prior and Zazi had worn it religiously to her high school. She keeps it on mainly due to her love of family and her desire to have her family back and thus keeps the ring to represent her father. Aside from Rei, Zazi has a few close friends that she stays around that know about her powers and accept her for it. By the age of 16, she was nearing her high school senior year and had taken a job as a model to buy a precious gem called Jet which is black in appearance. For the next year, she worked to earn the money to buy the precious gem and sought to buy the purest and more beautiful piece she could find. Now a high school senior, she finally gained enough money to buy the Jet gem, and as with Quirin, this was one beautifully pre-cut by expert jewelers and only needed to embed it. Being that there was only one spot left to fill, she placed the small jet gem at the center of her ring. She had placed this gem there in honor of the loss and sacrifice of all the Quincy before her, including her father and promised that she will continue the Quincy lineage as best as she could and hopefully lead a normal life by mastering her Quincy powers as her father set to do, carrying his notebook/journal that was incomplete at his death. Zazi had ended her schooling to focus on her career in modeling. As such, she has taken steps to gain power as her father would have wanted and set her sights on finding a teacher to show her new heights.
