Values: Self-preservation is always the top priority. Every hand not wielding a knife is hiding one. Knowledge may be gained at any price.

Environment: Drow elves are subsurface dwellers and evil in nature. As a result, the Drow are shunned on the surface.

She also does not like degradation, humiliation, and will react violently if forced into those positions.

Aspirations: Zephyra is in the middle of a midlife crisis. She has been in the drow city her entire life, and as she enters the surface world, it is going to quickly overwhelm her.
