Appearance: She normally wears practical clothing in black, gray with perhaps red or white accents. Notably always wearing longer gloves and tall boots.
Personality: Formal and all business, unless you manage to gain her trust. Can be quite oblivious to flirting, may not notice or understand if it is subtle. It would be obvious that she cares about her people, going to lengths to take care of them. She acts older than she looks.

Connections
Xaboki Graynight - Aka Red. Zash refers to him as brother though they are obviously not of the same race. If they talk about each other one gets the impression that they have known each other for many years.
Malkelt Graynight - How they met is not common knowledge, but Malkelt is one of few who gets away with telling Zash what to do. She highly respects him.
Melkeira Graynight - Daughter of Malkelt, Zash has spent many days in the past 10 years looking after her when Malkelt goes wandering. Is called Auntie Zash by her.
Arynnia Graynight - Newly adopted/acquired daughter of Malkelt, she also calls Zash "Aunt". Zash does let her help out around the Lounge, but one may get the impression that Zash gets exasperated by her.
The Knightmare - The mercenary company founded by Zash, she spends most of her time running it and making sure her Contractors have work and are taken care of.
Lord Talan Jeanne - Owner of Xiphias Auri, seems to have known Zash for many years. Their relationship is unclear, however one can see there is mutual respect.
Valfar Hallgerdson - Seen recently staying at the Abaddon, does not appear to be a Contractor. Has been noted in Zash's company quite often. The two seem quite comfortable with each other and close.
Artemis Eltaria - Owner of the Umbra Cafe and Apothecary. She met him through Valfar.
Seeking
There are two type of people. Those with a gun, and those who dig. You dig.
How to meet:
Za'shule is hirable for any job: you have the gil, she has the gun.
Much of her time is spent around the headquarters of the Knightmare in Empyreum.
Can arrange meetups at venue events: though she does not get out often, this can be made to work.
Through any mutual acquaintances.
Interested in short and long term RP Partners for the following:
Working on this slowly. Currently dealing with improving health which is #1 priority.
Friendship
Colleagues/business partnerships
I am open to joining plots.
-> Please talk to me OOC about how much would be expected of Za'shule in plots.
-> Za'shule does own/run a business so I take that into consideration for her availability.
-> I also have limited availability due to my IRL health (which is improving).
Rumors
No. The question isn't indiscreet. But the answer could be.
Common Knowledge:
Knowledge that is easily found out.
Served at the Battle of Cartineau as a Twin Adder, retired as soon as she was able after.
Active Mercenary for the past 18+ years.
Will complete contracts to the letter, and terms are clearly defined.

More difficult to find, more likely to hear from closer acquaintances.
That Za'shule has not been back to the Steppes since she left, about 20 years ago.
Hush Hush:
Harder to find out, may need to hear from her or those close to her, information brokers may have this information and more.
She does not take kindly to those who violate her contracts.

I have had many tell me how my characters should look and act, these are my characters and I will not change them to fit your personal preference.Otherwise saying: Don't be an ass. If it is rude, insulting, harassing, or harmful to say that to someone IRL, don't say it about their character (in OOC, note that if things like that are said IC, my characters will react appropriately).
Recovering from health issues, but am available for RP here and there.
My home server is Marilith on Dynamis, however I am willing to world visit within NA datacenter for RP. My characters do have at least some in-character housing that can be used for RP too.I am open to Discord RP, but I do enjoy In-game RP and will want both.My availability is very open. Typically from 11 am - 10 pm (MST) most days of the week.There are exceptions depending on health, medical appointments, and errands.I will let those I RP with know when I am free or not as the case arises.
