Darlingverse/Zee/Statblock

From Zees perspective, she sees herself as the necessary "eyes and ears" that keep their world from being surprised by the creeping dangers from the void..

Intro

Zee

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.

With Others

With Skree: Zee found an unexpected kinship with Skree. They share a profound understanding of observation and discretion. Skree's ability to perfectly mimic sounds provides invaluable camouflage and information, making them an effective, quiet team in mapping the unpredictable "Wilds."

With Roric: She respects Roric's efficiency and speed, seeing him as a reliable partner when quick action or retreat is needed. They often coordinate their movements to navigate the dangerous, shifting areas of Darling's mind.

With Flicker: Zee appreciates Flicker's ingenuity and the clever traps or devices he might devise. She sees his mechanical mind as a valuable asset for problem-solving in their strange reality.

Antagonistic Towards: Zee views Lysander's grandiosity as a dangerous liability, believing his naive showmanship makes him a target. She finds Grut's loud, unsubtle approach to problems an absolute nightmare for stealth and security. She also distrusts Borin's rigid adherence to static structures, seeing them as potential traps in a constantly shifting world.

• Closer To: Skree (shared observational skills and stealth), Roric (values his agility and quick movement for escape or opportunity).
• Antagonistic Towards: Lysander (finds his noble pretensions naive and dangerous), Grut (too loud and unsubtle, a liability for stealth), Elara (sees her intellectual detachment as weakness).
