Zazel Ref

Forgot to post this!

This is Zazel, she's Honey's rival. Here's the backstory I wrote for her:

• Zazel grew up as an orphan alongside Honey in an abbey. The two would often compete with each other and were close friends despite their differences. Zazel was strangely intense, even scary, but was able to put on a sweet exterior and trick and manipulate anyone unfamiliar with her schemes. Honey saw through the act and still wanted to be her friend.
• The older they grew the more inferior Zazel would feel, as most of Honey's endeavors were easily met with success while Zazel struggled and often failed. Zirco too wished to become a knight, but lacked either the strength, skill, or resolve to go down this path.
• When Honey was given permission to leave the abbey and start her training as a squire; Zazel began spiraling, sinking deeper into despair every waking hour that she was left behind while Honey got to pursue their shared dream without her. Resentment grew in her heart.
• She began to sneak out at night and meet up with a group of bandits in the forest and making friends with them. Her attitude and behavior worsened and once she started hiding knives on her person the nuns began to legitimately fear her. One night she left and never returned and no one went looking for her. The nuns told Grand Matron, perhaps the one other person who cared for Zazel , that she had been killed by the bandits.
• Zazel found life on the streets of Magog as a criminal, struggling just as before but now in an even worse environment. Failure after failure after failure, Zazel had been through the worst of it in such a short amount of time. By pure chance she happened to spot Honey in Magog, clad in shiny armor with an angelic radiance and defeating her opponents with a smile on her face as if it's nothing. Honey looks to have achieved her dream of becoming a revered knight while Zazel is crawling through blood and shit in the gutters of Magog. This event caused something to snap within her.
• Following a rotten trail of breadcrumbs, Zazel sought out a mysterious ringmaster and struck a deal with him. Her body and soul for the power to destroy Honey Luxmoore.
