Captured by Papa: One cold, misty evening, after a particularly fruitful day scavenging near the docks, Zee heard a peculiar, echoing whisper in a usually deserted alley. Her instincts screamed danger, but before she could vanish, a rough hand snatched her from the shadows. She remembered a dizzying sensation, the pungent smell of something sweet and cloying, and then darkness. The world spun as she was thrown into a suffocating, confined space. | |||
Papa's Basement and the Void: Her next conscious thought was of a stone floor, chillingly cold against her cheek. She saw other children, frightened and whimpering in rough cages, their eyes reflecting the dim, flickering light from a single, distant lamp. A large, shadowy figure – Papa – moved with unnerving silence. Zee remembered a child crying out, and as Papa reached a cage nearby, a flash of blinding, unspeakable horror surged, and the memory violently ripped itself away from her grasp, leaving only a cold, empty void where the full terror once resided. | |||

Intro
Zee only has glimpses of memory from her past. She knew the shadowed alleys and forgotten rooftops of Waterdeep's Dock Ward better than any map. Life had taught her to be perpetually vigilant and self-reliant. She survived by her sharp eyes, nimble fingers, and an uncanny ability to disappear into plain sight, often finding discarded treasures or leftover food. She was distrustful of most adults, her large, golden eyes always scanning for danger, but she yearned for a safe place she could call her own.
When Zee awoke inside Darlington City her first instinct was to observe, to understand the new rules of this bizarre purgatory. She saw it as a vast, shifting city, perpetually on the edge of unraveling. Driven by her ingrained need for survival and vigilance, she became the silent scout, perpetually patrolling the Whispering Labyrinths and the shadowy edges of the Shadow-Haunted Wilds, ever watchful for threats and prepared to destroy lonely enemies or report and bring muscle when needed.
