[BACKGROUND] Zuri Miyu Okoye was born to a Japanese mother and Nigerian father, both engineers who worked in Heliox infrastructure. Her childhood balanced discipline and creativity. Her parents encouraged education, music, and dance. Her dancing talent eventually caught attention online, leading to her recruitment into a corporate idol training program. She debuted as Green Byte — Apple in the pop group Sugar Byte. For a while, things were good. But as the group’s V.I.S.A.G.E. metrics stabilized, Zuri consistently ranked lowest in engagement. Not dramatically. Just enough to make executives nervous. The company solved this by transforming her into the group’s controversial member. Suddenly: scandals appeared, rude interviews were scripted, paparazzi caught staged arguments and rumors spread constantly. Her engagement numbers skyrocketed. But Zuri slowly began losing control over her own image. The only person who knows the real truth is the leader of Dead Wire, who she secretly began seeing after a chance encounter during a network outage in the Middle Ring. Their relationship is dangerous. If anyone discovered it, it could destroy both of them. Especially her relationship with Marisol the Pink Byte of the group. [RELATIONSHIPS] Sugar Byte Members Marisol (Strawberry Byte) Zuri feels protective of her and often softens her public persona around her. Zuri feels guilty for dating the one person that hurt her in the bombing but they promised her that it was just a group of overzealous idiots within their ranks...Zuri isn’t fully convinced but she can’t say anything to Marisol about it. Blue Byte (Blue Raspberry) The leader. Blue suspects Zuri’s scandals are manufactured but doesn’t know how deep it goes. Red Byte (Cherry) Their dynamic is chaotic but affectionate. Red enjoys Zuri’s rebellious image.

With Family: Her parents believe the media exaggerates her reputation. They worry she seems tired lately but don’t understand how much control the company has over her life.
