irken_natureName: Zim
Species:Olia Irken
Canon: Invader Zim
Age: 14 (ten year old equivalent)
Physical Sex:Male FOOLS! ZIM NEEDS NONE OF YOUR FILTHY EARTHLING ATTRACTION!
Affinity: Life
Affinity Level: Adept and INSANE with it.
History: ZIM'S IS A POWERFUL AND NOBLE HISTORY OF IRKEN ADVANCEMENT!
Or rather, Zim is...Zim. He wasn't always Irken though. He was born just like any other child in a small town called Irk. He was the middle child of a large family that had managed to hold a small farm despite frequent storms. They were moderately prosperous, they even had a small library.
Irk was hit by a band of Raiders when Zim was five years old. His two elder brothers were at the school where the teacher, Ms. Bitters, was able to protect them. Zim, his two younger siblings, and his parents were not so fortunate.
He doesn't remember any of it. Something in the attack, the horror, or just the stress, broke Zim. He expressed as a Nature Adept and lost his mind all in one go. He also, for reason known only to his subconscious, turned himself into some form of plant. Perhaps plants hurt less, and the child was hurting.
He believed, when his brothers returned to their family home, that he had been spawned by a metal probe. He had no parents, no siblings, simply the Irken people. He was impressed with his brother's height when he next saw them and dubbed them 'The Tallest'. His Tallest. His leaders.
At the time his brothers were twin boys who were ten years old themselves. They did their best. They took care of Zim. One brother was a lightning master, the other an earth master. They fashioned a small golem of metal, filled with electricity, to follow Zim around so they would always knew where their crazy little brother was at.
Zim named it Gir and spent many hours of his life monologuing at the poor golem. Gir was not capable of response but Zim believed the golem spoke, and obeyed orders, and this gave the brothers some breathing room between bouts of crazy.
Ms. Bitters helped as well, once Zim was declared 'school age' despite being green (and he got spider legs in a pack on his back some how in there). Naturally by the time Zim was twelve both the brothers and Ms. Bitters were a little stressed.
And then Zim had a nightmare.
And all of Irk woke up as Irkens. As plants. With spider legs and eyed with no pupils. An entire small town transformed because a little boy with great powers thought his people had been defeated by the Rat People of Morlog when OBVIOUSLY the IRKEN PEOPLE WERE FAR TOO STRONG AND NUMEROUS TO EVER FALL TO SUCH!
And still his brothers tried.
For two more years they tried to control Zim and reassure the people in town that thinsg were okay.
But even heroes grow tired. They grew weary and depressed and considered actually harming their brother and that scared them.
So they sent him away.
They gave him a mission, to go forth to New York and observe its people. They attached a note to his back explaining things and sent him onward.
And lo, Zim came to New York.
