History
Zi Sliders, while currently from Chicago, grew up in the rural upper Midwest.

Sliders is Chinese-American and a transfeminine butch. She is known among fans of the Firefighters for zir personal style, especially her trademark leather jacket and large colorful earrings. Sliders is also a self-professed movie buff and, “dad rock aficionado”.
Pilotry
Sliders reportedly learned to fly planes at a young age, having been taught by zir aunt, aerospace engineer and hobbyist pilot Hualin Gao. When asked exactly how old she was when zi learned to fly, Sliders told reporters, “what are you, a cop?” Following her aunt’s passing, Sliders inherited her personal aircraft, a two-seater plane named the Hou Yi.
After hearing the Call, Sliders brought the Hou Yi to Chicago and retrofitted it for use in firefighting. The aircraft is mainly used for fighting forest fires, as well as in any urban fires that are of large enough scale to warrant its use. Sliders has also been known to use the Hou-Yi to visit family, saying, “sometimes you just need to get away for the weekend, dude.”

Following zir exit from the Shadows, Sliders has also reportedly developed a friendship with Baby “Ruthless” Triumphant. This relationship is unconfirmed as Triumphant threatens any members of the media who get too close and Sliders is committed to respecting xir wishes by not speaking of xem.
