Talk:Zion Aliciakeyes

Adding that Aliciakeyes is of Chinese descent (specifically from what is now Anhui, China)

Zion is mentioned in Walton Sports' update:

Sports himself credits teammate Zion Aliciakeyes with easing his integration into the team. Thanks to his experience with birds, Sports volunteered to take over the upkeep of the Ampitheater’s birdhouses in the absence of Hiroto Wilcox. He was directed to Aliciakeyes when he needed tools to repair some of the birdhouses, and while he describes their first meeting as “overwhelming,” he also says that she was welcoming and happy to get him the tools he needed. He can now be frequently found working on birdhouses and household projects at her place in between games. He has denied, however, that he is learning to build a mech of his own, saying that he’s “happy to stick to what [he knows] and leave the bigger projects to Zion, for now.”

Zion, alongside Hiroto, took it upon herself to explain to the replicas about the fact that they were going to break down/fade away at the end of the season - who better than a mechanic to talk about a break down.

Crossposting a section concerning Zion from Ayanna Dumpington's proposed additions:

• Ayanna developed several friendships with fellow Stripes, including working on cracking Zion's jaded shell, attempting to befriend Mora (to mixed success), jazzercise with Mummy and Paula Mason (and Nandy Slumps), and having an admiring outlook towards Paula Turnip.
• With Zion, specifically, Zion's a lot more guarded than she used to be, having been through a lot and lost a lot over the years. Ayanna's kindness and optimism was enough to have Zion lower some of those barriers, at least a little.

After getting swept Elsewhere in season 12, Zion was stuck there for some time until she hit on the solution of jury-rigging the Iron Lion with some flippers to help her back home. Upon her return, she was so sick of the unpleasant experience that she decided to make the mods permanent, installing flippers on the mech as well as prototyping her own, smaller pair of flippers.

- Ethnically Chinese

- Her energy drink flavour is called Midnight Oil, and the special ingredients include ink and blood. It is sometimes used as a magical fuel or spell component.

Could put this anywhere, but could do with more context for some of the suggestions elsewhere, for those non-discord folks.

Anyway, idrc for assigning races much. Possibly heads down a dodgy path? Like that culturally insensitive weeb crap back when Lifts was new.
