Honestly just rping a kid growing up, going through all the teenage angst and silliness and hope she comes out a respectable adult is my biggest goal, but I do have some flexible ideas.
I’m trying to have Zaiya grow as organically as possible with her connections to people but she really does want to have strong family/ friend connections because she lost her parents very young. Her species is very, very dependent on those social bonds so she is pretty starved for affection, touch, and being in social bonding environments. What this means is that she can also be taken advantage of because of her deep desire to connect with others; be it good or bad. Thankfully, seems she’s starting out well with
Aris Noble
,
Braze
and
Loomi
She also wants to truly help others and she is force sensitive, so I’d want her to organically join a place that can help foster it. So far I’m pretty sure she will join the NJO after loomi’s not birthday depending how it goes and how others interact with her.
I’d love for her to be a cool support character in terms of fighting. I love support chars. So all the crowd control, buffs, and assistance she can provide with some cool non violent defenses. I think it will be interesting to see what sort of offense tactics she’ll learn to protect herself and others. Zaiya is very selfless in that, quick on thinking outside the box with gadgets, but I can see her potentially harming herself to help others that she needs to learn to balance.
For now she’s just a kid, but I love long con, slow burn relationships. I’d love to see how the drama of teen angst, alienness of her species, the Force triggering her ability to mimic her species bonds, and all that jazz manifests itself as she gets older and becomes an adult. Lovalla are very, very social creatures ( Love bird literally as a base of the species) so I can see her want an eventual connection of a partner, but how that works is up in the air.
That’s all I have so fun but excited none the less
