Zora Salazar

Personality:   Zora is a tall, thin woman with long brown hair, tan skin, and yellow triangle markings on her face. She dons a cowboy hat with a triangle patterned brim, a red neck bandanna, and a poncho which has a symbol that resembles the sun in the middle. Under her poncho, she wears an orange long-sleeved embroidered button-down shirt, a belt with a plus-shaped golden buckle that has a sun symbol in the center, brown and dark brown striped leggings, and brown boots with golden sun-shaped spurs on its ends. Zora enjoys her job as a bounty hunter and seems to be quite confident in her own skills. She can seem quite 'intimidating' at times, and she is even able to make Ramsey fear her, as she is an adept dueler and can easily beat anyone whom she deems as obstacles. She is incredibly ruthless and selfish when it comes to achieving her goals, as shown by how she de-aged Bugsy Pugsler after he refused to hand over the Arsene Amulet, or her turning Howie Honeyglow into an old man. However, she claims that generally she doesn't prefer going power-mad often, as it’ll make things boring for her and is against the spirit of Bliss Ocean, therefore favoring fair duels (not that she isn't ready to play dirty if she gets angry enough). Her underhanded tactics are reflected by her erratic nature, such as hitting Ramsey’s “horrible, horrible” face with her second gun in a fit of rage after Ramsey broke her first one and soon after cheating the “fair duel” and using her epithet on Percy’s discarded sword in an attempt cut and then age both of them into dust, this is the first case we see of an attack doing infinite damage. Although a proficient epithet wielder, she actually hates her own epithet because, as a thrill-seeker, she sees it as a killjoy for being overpowered, hence joining Bliss Ocean. Zora can be hypocritical with her actions, e.g. damaging a building Howie was constructing for no reason, while getting angry at Ramsey for breaking a gun she had made. This extends to using loopholes to justify herself cheating: She was in-favor for fighting Ramsey and Percy without her epithet (since they weren't using their own), but also waited until an advantageous time to undo her power on time-stopped bullets she had fired beforehand, claiming that it was fair for her to do so. She was born in northern Taiga Country. She grew up in a family of paleontologists. One day when her mother and her father were digging, they found a golden box. Banzai Blasters, however, stole the box, and then shot her parents till they died. Leaving her an orphan she grew up in the woods, alone and learned to be a marksman. She would use those skills to be a gun for hire. As well at some point discovering her epithet, Sundial. While bounty-hunting, she chased down am escaped prisoner, who was bleeding by the time she found them. She challenged them to a classic pistol duel, Zora presumably winning. She then goes after an entire gang, using her epithet to make "physics look askance". When there was one left, she challenged them to a duel, with her again winning. Later, she was hired by a client seeking revenge on a woman who has a notch on her watch for every man she killed, Zora noting its cute she still has room. Zora easily defeats her. One day someone approached her in the woods and told her "her gun is misguided." After having a one-sided fight, she realized she had found someone on her level, joining Bliss Ocean. Now she has a reason for her fighting and met two others who were on her level as well. Her epithet allows her to be functionally immortal by slowing her aging process or turning back the clock every few years. Zora enjoys targeting Ramsey and always aims to destroy him, not only because he has committed embezzlement but also due to Ramsey having a bounty on his head. She kind of smells and sleeps in the woods. She has an aversion for soap. She likes “Whistlin', Shootin', Huntin', Beer, and Scootin'”.
