Character Sheet for Zachary Alexander Foxwell
Character Description
Zach is the middle Foxwell child, and the only boy, though sometimes he questions if his little sister is genuinely a girl or not due to her being more boyish than him. He enjoys reading, and running, and basketball. Soccer may be the national sport of Solara but it never was his fancy.
Personality
Zach's athletic, but also nerdy. He loves his books, and prefers high fantasy. He is great at imagining, in detail, worlds in his head, so he enjoys books better than movies. He has a bit of snark to him, mostly towards his sister Tomi, though he would do anything to protect her.
He is a bit of a scaredy cat though, just don't let anyone know, he has pride.
Also he totally swipes Astrid's clothes sometimes because he likes to look pretty in a skirt, though again, he has pride, despite femboys being okay in arcturean society.

Background/History
Zach's Megan's secondborn, he was born in 2264 and lives with his mom and sisters in Dawnstone. Growing up, unlike Astrid, he really, really did not like Megan's live-in boyfriend, and the father of all 3 kids.
One year, after Tomi was born, she had just turned 3. Megan had a late night emergency surgery to do so her bf was babysitting the kids. Zach was 12, Astrid was 14. Zach woke up after hearing a noise from Tomi's room and went to investigate, finding her father approaching her and slipping her training pants down under her nightgown. Zach woke up Astrid, who he shared a room with, and she recorded with her phone while Zach confronted the dad, just voice, she didn't think to record video, one thing she regrets. Zach basically summoned all of his courage to yell at his dad to get away from Tomi, because he was unzipping his pants, and when the dad refused, stupidly confessing on the recording that he had planned to "do" things to Tomi, Zach gave him the nastiest right hook a 10 year old could muster, buying enough time to grab Tomi and the trio sprinting to the neighbor's. After the adrenaline wore off, Zach broke down crying harder than when his grandparents died, in fear and sadness. He was comforted by Astrid, and he remembers the duo comforting Tomi, who had no idea what was going on. Eventually, he had Astrid call their mom and tell her what happened, while he held Tomi. Fortunately, Megan believed them, dad got a restraining order put on him, and he was given 30 years in prison in an offworld colony.
2 years later, and several months of therapy, and he's mostly back to normal. he teases his sister but he loves her more than anything else in the world, and wants to protect her, no matter what. He also looks up to Astrid significantly, and never takes her affection and comfort for granted. He never hesitates to lean on her when he feels upset.
