POSITION: Waitress, aspiring writer.

♦ THE CHARACTER ♦

HEIGHT: 5'5"

HAIR COLOR: Brown

MISC: Ziggy is the thrift shop goddess, her wardrobe made up of only her finds. Graphic tees and faded blue jeans are her everyday dress-- usually completed with her signature denim jacket. 

The needle has added a stud in her right nostril and a tattoo of two hands looping pinkies in a promise on her lower back. 



PERSONALITY:  Just a girl with her head stuck in the clouds.

Ziggy is intelligent and bears an unusually perceptive. Bluntly honest, dramatic, theatrical; all have been used to describe her, yet seem to be constantly battled. She is both a realist and a dreamer.

Rebellion is in her nature, as she is still young and was raised in such a strict household. Flirtation is something she’s unashamed to display. However, she is a genuinely kind and friendly person which is easily mistaken for her frequent flirting.



SECRET(S): Her history in general is kept secret. Sexual abuse and years of mental abuse aren't things Ziggy is willing to inform anyone. As well, sharing that she was raised in an environment of the unglamorous rich doesn't truly fit her persona; she is a firm believer in living in the now.

♦ THE HISTORY ♦

Proud is the only word to fit for Zigana's family. They were proper, they were pure. She was raised to fall into their lifestyle. The usage of forceful tactics weren't uncommon. However, this only drove Ziggy further from the family. Ziggy was bitter from birth, until she ran away from home.

Her father, born into generations of built up money, was hot-headed and hosted considerably strong beliefs. He was raised to be a boss, and so he was. This trait affected his family as he was manipulative and unforgiving. Disappointed that his only child was a daughter instead of a son who could continue his family's business (furniture), he treated her with disrespect and constantly reminded her that she was worthless to him. His abusive actions were also taken out on Ziggy's mother, who, in return, neglected her daughter. His never ending attempts to have Ziggy follow his every order commonly resulted in a punishment of isolation until she was willing to do as he demanded. As Ziggy grew into her early teens, each dream she had was to be crushed b her father who was unwilling to support anything that didn't fit, or support , the family business. Her only escape was reading, until the day she took action and left.

She blamed both of her parents for the negative outlook she had on the world. She was sixteen, still a student-- she moved in with her boyfriend and his family. That was her home for only a few months. She ran away from there, also. This time, her boyfriend was declared at fault. Ziggy tries desperately to block out the memory of sexual abuse, keeping it a secret among only herself and her abuser. Ziggy, after all of this, opted to become a high school dropout. 

Jack Kerouac inspired her greatly. Kerouac was the reason she found her talent for writing, as well as the reason for her hitchhiking her way somewhere to the beach after stealing away in the night from her boyfriend's house. Ziggy believed that her life was fragile, she convinced herself that the ocean would cure her. And that was how she found herself in Glenhaven.
