## Biography

Prior to her death, Zoe lived with her girlfriend Reina, as well as Reina's daughter, Claire. At some point, Claire began talking about a tall, haunted figure in their house. While Zoe was skeptical and took no action, Reina immediately went to various priests until meeting with monks from the Holy Sacred Order of the Bleeding Rose. The monks were convinced that Claire was being hunted by the worrisome figure and gave Zoe a jade necklace. Eventually, the Slenderman attacked their home, killing her and abducting Claire. Zoe became a ghost upon death, though visible only to a few, Reina not included. Having lost Claire and Zoe, Reina would become depressed as a result and checked herself into a psychiatric ward.

By the time of her first appearance in A Slenderman Musical, Zoe had long been wandering, searching for someone who was being hunted by the Slenderman. Timothy fit this description. After meeting and befriending Timothy, Zoe has permission to possess his body when the Slenderman comes for him. The Slenderman catches them, but before arriving at his destination, is captured by Samuel and Jordan, who are denizens of the Decadent Abbey. Zoe, still in Timothy's body, head to the library in the Abbey to gain answers from the Teddy Bear librarians, and shortly after leaving, walk in on a threesome whose participants are Samuel, Jordan, and the Slenderman. Thoroughly spooked by this, Zoe resolves to leave the Decadent Abbey and frees the Slenderman from his captivity in order to use him as a vehicle of escape, whereupon Timothy's body (and Zoe in control of it) is taken to Mother's house.

Mother, upon first seeing Timothy's body, can tell that Zoe is in control and directly addresses her, asking how she managed to arrive at the house. Zoe explains her backstory in detail while Samuel enters the body and Timothy fills him in on the situation. When she finishes, Mother offers a challenge, a game in which the stakes are winning and rescuing Claire by doing so or losing and being stuck with Mother. Before Timothy ultimately steps up to the plate as the first contender in this game, Zoe debates him for a bit over who would be the better person to go through with this game in a heartfelt moment. When Timothy is captured by the Slenderman, Zoe suggests giving him a handjob to escape. While it works to placate the Slenderman, Mother does not relent, and would have killed Timothy but for the timely intervention of the Teddy Bears, who provide her with a gaming console to play Transcendation. This allows the humans an opportunity to escape, and after bidding farewell to Timothy shortly thereafter, Zoe returns Claire to Reina on Reina's birthday.

## Personality

As exhibited by her eagerness to have sex with Jordan and get Timothy's body high while in possession of it, and possibly augmented by her own lack of a physical body, Zoe appreciates the experiences life has to offer. The level to which she is enthusiastic about these things is ambiguous, as when asked by Timothy why all they talked about in the Abbey was sex and drugs, she replied: "Because I'm scared as shit." She also is shown to care a great deal about those she holds dear, taking great pains to rescue Claire, never forgetting about what the experience has done to Reina, and even suggesting to Timothy that she die in his place. To that end, there's also a dark spot to Zoe's overall outgoing personality. Being dead, she feels that beyond rescuing Claire and returning her to Reina, she has nothing to live for.
