It's a story of a girl who after reading an inscription at the base of a sarcophagus
brought upon herself Nephthys's curse. Now working at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Zaya
Abdelkader tries to keep it under wraps (see the Mummy humor) that she has a Goddess living within
her. Trying to figure out what her life now holds for her, Zaya lives to serve Nephthys and the
Goddess' desires and whims. It is a heavy burden for the young girl who just wants to live a normal
life. Yet, she cannot help but think that there is some good to be done with her new found
abilities.

Personality
ExpandClick to expand.
Compassionate:
Zaya has always been a caring person. However, with the embodiment of Nephthys within her, she
has taken that to a different level. Zaya always wants to help those in need, including those who
have passed on and those left behind.
Inquisitive:
Zaya is always wanting to know more, to learn more. If there is something she desires to know,
she will make sure she puts in the effort to understand it. She is not afraid to ask questions, or
afraid of the answers she may seek.
Protective:
If she was not protective before, the influence of Nephthys within her certainly has taken that
to a new level. Zaya is extremely protective of her family and friends and will often put herself in
harms way to make sure they remain safe and unharmed.
Reserved:
Zaya has always been a bit shy. She is not the most social person and will not go out of her way
to start a conversation with a stranger. She does not particularly like large crowds or gatherings
and for the most part tries to keep to herself. It is not that she is unfriendly, she simply chooses
to be slightly introverted.
Soft-Spoken:
Zaya has always had a soft-spoken tone, a voice that has always calmed and put people at ease.
Even more so now, there is something about the way she speaks that exudes a sense of calming peace
and tranquility.
The Nephthys Effect:
Zaya is her own person; well to a point. Being the living embodiment now for the Goddess
Nephthys not everything she does is her own decision. The Goddess has an agenda and at times Zaya
will act outside of her own freewill. Nephthys has been accommodating, but sometimes Zaya will
appear to act outside of how she typically is ands this has become to be known as the Nephthys
Effect.
Character Sheet
Powers

Darkness Manipulation:
Zaya can manipulate the darkness, making up to a good size room dark. This darkness is hard to
penetrate with any normal light. She has also been known to put up a Shield of Darkness as a
protective measure, able to absorb magical based attacks, but not blunt forced attacks.
Healing Breath:
By breathing on the injured area with a long soft breath, Zaya can heal most wounds and trauma.
The greater the wound the more breathing it would require. There is speculation that she could
literally give a breath of life should Nephthys allow it, but this has yet to be tested and the cost
would be great to Zaya.
Spiritual Conversing:
Zaya can speak with the spirits she sees, gaining knowledge and answers they wish to reveal. She
must speak out loud, but the voices she hears are within her head.
Spiritual Sense:
Zaya has the ability to sense spirits anywhere she goes, should they wish to he seen. In
addition, she also has the ability to see past scenes played out in which death may have occurred.
For instance, on a battlefield or what could potentially have been a murder scene.
Touch of Death:
If Zaya is to touch any living thing with her bare hands, that thing begins to slowly decay. It
is as if she is drawing the life right out of it. Her hand must remain on the living thing as it is
not an instant process. If she is allowed or able to complete the touch, the living thing will
appear withered and decayed; much like that of a mummified body; thus, causing death. Any other part
of her body does not have this effect.

Zaya actially has a small aprtmentin NYC near the Metro Museum. It is not cheap, but she live
fairly frugally. She would not admit it, but her parents are assiting her.
The Goddess Within:

people that are aware of this. In addition, in the realm of the Egyptian Gods, Zaya has knowledge
that other people do not have an awareness of.
Weaknesses
ExpandClick to expand.
A Servant To Nephthys:
It is a blessing and a curse. Zaya is essentially the vessel now that Nephthys has chosen to
complete her goals. Whereas most of the time Zaya is allowed ot do what she desires and live as
normal as a life as she can, at the end of the day what Nephthys wants...Zaya will be forced to
do.
Mortal:
Despite having a Goddess setting up residence in her body, Zaya is still mortal. Her lifespan
may be extended and she may be able to "escape" death given Nephthys' ability, but her body can be
hurt just like any human.
Those Hands:
Zaya will never know the feeling of touch with her hands without causing death. This has had a
deep impact on her ability to grow close to anyone and made relatrionships very difficult.
