History


Date of Birth: July 17th, 1999
Home: Volkhov, Leningrad Oblast, Russia
Family: Nagaya Yaroslav Gennadivich and Nadka Olegovna (parents), Tima Slavavich (older brother), Marka Slavavich (older brother), Anfisa Slavana (older sister), Vasil Slavavich (younger brother), Inga Slavana (younger sister); Nagaya Zaryika [Zarya] Slavana (birth name)
Chrysalis: Preordainment (born into a humble working-class family in a power plant town; but father was actually newly Chrysalized Varich Sidhe during the 2nd Resurgence, who chose a handsome but humble man to deliberately hide from old fey enemies; consequently, Zarya was the start of a Kinain bloodline; however, Yaroslav’s Golden Sickle enemies caught up, eager to shut down any rise of Varich into their worldly affairs, and they employed the Russian mob to slaughter he and the whole family in a storm of bullets; the terrifying tragedy shook her own sleepy Sidhe soul fully awake and through a dazzle of wild Glamour and magic, she fell onto a hidden Trod, whisked far away from Mother Russia), 2010
Mentor: Baron Vladimir Miron ap Aesin
The Test: Trial by Wit (the Trod, pushed by Dán, dumped the Chrysalid childling in Sonoma Valley at the doorstep of Cat Windsor; the Unseelie nobles there took her in once they heard her terrified tale, teaching her how to survive while also trying to draw out details of her story to discover at the least if her father’s enemies would track and trace her across the oceans here, but the trail seemed cold; eventually, upon transitioning to wilder, Zarya earned her Naming as a matter of course)
Comrades: Tabitha Hecht, Piper Beattie, Brigitte Causing, Rayleigh Dunham
Key Event #1: Personal Tragedy (as she settled into this new life, an orphan, she proved a quick study of English and American culture, but reticent about the details of her father’s business affairs and faerie foes; more and more, the Aesin and other Unseelie nobles turned a cold shoulder to her since she could do little for or against their interests)
Transition: Shift in Purpose (Queen Serena then visited Zarya, promising her justice but more importantly a proper refuge, where she would be cared for and taught all she needed to know by other fae who also endured tragedies and struggle; feeling terribly lonely, Zarya agreed and enlisted in the Ensemble)

Remembrance


Magnitude: Zarya commands a solid memory reaching back some three centuries.
Details: She feels her life connected to her father’s, as if her Sidhe soul was connected, too—perhaps she was his daughter in Arcadia, too. She also recalls a time when her faerie magic was without parallel and all the elements of the world bowed to her majesty, though she was never a queen.
