Her movements are swift and acrobatic-like, which makes sense since she used to be a dancer. However, she also uses close-range pistols as well.</li><li><strong>Dancing:</strong> She was a dancer in the Middle East before enlisting in the military, so her dancing skills are pretty great! When her husband is on business trips and she's bored, she'll usually go and be a stripper at Empathy or Dicky Twister. It looks like pure flesh and blood is a trend that is returning to Night City.</li><li><strong>Cyberpsychosis:</strong> Recruited by Max Tac to specifically Hunt and Kill cyberpsychos, she's extremely good at her job in knowing how to find and treat Cyberpsychosis. She's also doing research on Cyberpsychosis as of this moment.</li></ul><br/><strong>Personality:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li><strong>Adrenaline Junkie</strong>: Zahra values high octane, blood pumping situations above all else. Well, that is until she retired from all of that at least. However, nowadays she still takes jobs from fixers, but only on request, and only if it gets her blood pumping.</li><li><strong>Tease:</strong> Zahra is a tease, why? Because it excites her and gets her blood pumping. She enjoys walking around Pacifica in the dead of night, wearing the most....not appropriate outfits for the thrill of possibly being attacked.</li><li><strong>Minimal Cyberware:</strong> The reason? She hated when Fixers would just randomly call her at every corner or when she walked into a new district. Furthermore, the more Cyberware one has, the more likely they succumb to cyberpsychosis. She is not a stranger to losing people to cyberpsychosis. So she has the minimal amount of Cyberware possible.</li></ul><br/><strong>History:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Born in the Middle East, Zahra was trained in the military before being scouted and transferred by Night City's Max Tac for her excellence in dealing with Cyberpsychos in the Middle East. As such, Zahra speaks with a rather thick and charming Persian accent. Her accent and speech are 100% understandable.</li><li>She was in the military from the ages of 16 to 21.</li><li>She was in Max Tac for about 3 years before quitting and becoming a solo. She quit because she wasn't keen on flatlining every single cyberpsycho they ran across. </li><li>As a solo, she earned the nickname "The Desert Rose," for being from the Desert and constantly wearing Rose-colored lipstick. Her expertise in combat made her an absolute fortune and was/is one of the most sought-after mercs in Night City. She was a Solo for roughly a decade before "retiring" at the age of 34, which is where she is now. She frequently worked with a team of Ex Max Tac and Ex Trauma Team members during her time as a solo. However, whereas they were decked out in Cyberware, all she had were her Kiroshi's, Maneuvering Systems and the Militech "Falcon" Sandevistan Mk.6, which meant she was still largely flesh and bone.</li><li>She met a corpo in one of her missions and has since married him, although with no plans to start a family any time soon.</li><li>On occasion, when she's bored and her husband is out of town, which is a lot, she would dance as a stripper in nightclubs. Gotta get the adrenaline pumping somehow.</li><li>Although retired, she'll still take jobs from fixers if they give her adrenaline-pumping fun.</li></ul><br/><strong>Relationships/Connections:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li><strong>Afterlife:</strong> A legendary solo nicknamed "The Desert Rose." Legendary because she was one of the few solos that refused to use augmentations, or at least, the most minimal possible. Most fixers within the city know her and her clout, which means that it's easy for her to get jobs for herself or for others.</li><li><strong>Corpo Husband:</strong> Her husband is a corpo. A high-ranking Militech Corpo at that, which means that Zahra has access to an obscene amount of wealth. She drives the hippest cars, wears the nicest and most expensive clothes one can buy. Her favorite vehicles to drive are "her" Rayfield Caliburn as well as her Nazare. Also, she has a ton of Corpo connections!</li><li><strong>Max Tac:</strong> As an Ex Max Tac officer, she has some clout within the force, able to get information from older allies and the such.</li></ul><br/><strong>Weapons/Equipment:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li><strong>Custom Arasaka Thermal Broadsword:</strong> Her corpo and Max Tac connections allowed her to get a custom-made broadsword that is heavily inspired by the coveted Thermal Katana. This weapon is pretty much a prototype.</li><li><strong>Militech M-10AF:</strong> Custom Made Militech M-10AF, a gift from her then Corpo boyfriend turned husband. She names it Thorn.</li><li><strong>Militech M-76e Omaha:</strong>Custom Made Militech M-76e Omaha, a gift from her then Corpo boyfriend turned husband. She names it Blaze.</li></ul><br/><strong>Cyberware:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li><strong>Kiroshi Optics MK.3:</strong> Hidden under her Eyepatch, is her Kiroshi Optics MK.3 ocular system.</li><li><strong>Maneuvering System:</strong> The best way to compliment her acrobatic abilities is with a nervous system update that allows her to perform acrobatic actions mid-air!</li><li><strong>Militech "Falcon" Sandevistan Mk.6:</strong> The newest prototype to the "Falcon" line of Sandevistan's from Militech. </li></ul><br/><strong>Additional Details:</strong><br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li>She wears an Eyepatch on the right side of her face. An Injury from her Max Tac days.</li><li>She has henna tattoo sleeves. They don't mean anything to her, she just thinks they look cool. </li><li>Despite her very male-oriented/dominated lifestyle, she is very much still feminine. She often wears a light layer of Dark Rose-colored lipstick that goes with the beauty mark on her upper left lip. She also wears nail polish, generally black nail polish for her long fingernails and toenails (not long).</li></ul>
