Name: Ziva Ryan Gender: Female, Pan Age/DOB: ~80? 1956? Origin: Unknown dimension, Rapture facility Family: Known to be the daughter of Andrew Ryan, though who the 'mother' might be is up in the air Other: Also known: on Zekira, she's actually a clone of Kallah-Vahh's daughter Ksaalah, who is not the same as Ruby Lane here... also also, may have visited Talos One, with... interesting results, via Zekira Height: 5'9" Weight: 155, leggy and muscular, curvy in the right places, but quite strong for her build Hair: dark brown, wavy, styled and kept short Eyes: rich brown, verging on red, large, intense, and quite eager to focus fire right on you if you keep looking at her that way Appearance: Fair skinned, if she ever got to the surface and saw the sun she might have freckles, but that's hardly likely. Busty, lean, and absolutely loves having the best in fashion - even if it's impractical, she can wear it in style and even into battle Genetic Abilities: Though Ziva is ostensibly 'human' at her core, she's had so much genetic restructuring done to her via surgeries, tonics and treatments, and plentiful mixtures of Plasmids, that it's hard to say quite how human she is any more. She exhibits the use of nearly all forms of elemental telekinesis: pyrokinetics, cryo, plain old TK, but also teleportation, water production, electrical manipulation, air currents, and even mechanical controls. Though she cannot use these all in very short order, requiring a few minutes down time between each type or two (generally she can use two different kinds of power - one hand for each - but not more). Each ability is short ranged, within 50 meters at most. Her favored are fire and teleportation, by the way. She also shows a tremendous intelligence, because most of the 'treatments' that she's undergone, she's done to herself, and so far they've all been successful. Ziva can open 'tears', between worlds, and that's how she managed to make it into the Rookery's Rapture. Icarus Processing: None, but... all that other stuff she's done to herself counts. |

Skills or Profession: Science and engineering are her preferred professional skill sets. But she's also quite good with fashion and design - she has spent decades examining and even rebuilding parts of her Rapture facility, enjoying more the architectural beauty and artistic styling than the nitty gritty underneath. As a Plasmid engineer she's matchless, but even she thinks that there can be more done to refine and create safer versions of it. Now that she's in a world where Rhea Mercer is still around (hers vanished under strange circumstances, ones which while seemingly similar to those here with Lane, he's never been in her dimension...) she thinks they will be able to work much harder together. | |
Personality: Focused and single-minded, defensive, and highly protective of Rapture - in any dimension. She's aware that this one isn't 'hers' - and also that she doesn't exist on this world... yet. She has no intention of 'taking over' this facility, but she will certainly help get it up and running again. | |
Events or History: Ziva was created in the lab, and though there's no evidence any longer, it's highly likely that her mother - or one of them, anyway - was Brigid Tenenbaum. Since those responsible for her creation died more than half a century ago, she's kept working on 'her' projects in 'her' Rapture. It is hers: once her father Ryan was killed, and things had already gone thoroughly to shit there, she chased off all the splicers and remnants of that bygone incarnation of the place, and reinvented it in her own manner. With a skeleton crew and very few actual inhabitants to worry about, she set about recreating a lot of devices, including a genetic device that was where she was born. Every once in a while, weird static flashes would interrupt her: Tears brought by the dimension hopping Elizabeth or ... whoever she's calling herself out there. Ziva extended her own life by decades if not centuries using implanted technology from the machines that are even now being fixed up to enable on-site teleportation - she thinks that is an incredibly clever use of those Vita-Chambers, and has pondered whether they can be tuned to different dimensions. (Here's a hint: they can.) Yes, she found a dragon in RY9. They reside part-time together, she does still head back to her own dimension regularly, but Pneumo's fine on his own for a bit. He has his duties, she does her thing, they're attached enough that he misses her when she's gone, but like Hades and Persephone in the underworld, she doesn't belong there the whole time. |
