## General Info

Zackary Peter Fandazi is a twenty-one-year-old man who moved to Autumn Springs from England. His family is extremely wealthy, but his parents got a divorce when he was fifteen. He still inherited great amounts of wealth, and lives in a fittingly large house with his father and two older brothers.

He is an extremely charismatic and charming figure. Not only is he an overall very handsome guy, but his way with women is admirable. He gets ladies to fall head over heels for him just with a smile or slybrow. Girls want to date him and guys want to be him.

Zack has a passion for football. He played in the small league back when he was in England, and surpassed all the other kids. He then became the wide-receiver for his high school team and got a full ride scholarship for several colleges to play in. He's one of the best in Connecticut, if not the east coast!

After high school, Zack went back to England to take a gap year, and then took a full scholarship to play football for Louisiana State University. He is a general business major.

## History

Zack was born in Manchester, England. He lived in a mansion with both of his parents and two older brothers. As a child, Zack was the least favorite. He would constantly get whipped with a belt by his father, and his mother was too afraid to intervene. His brothers constantly picked on him and would make him their scapegoat for the next couple of years.

Zack was homeschooled for most of his childhood. If he wasn't learning about maths and literature, he would be playing footy with his brothers. When he was seven, he also started to take an interest in acrobatics. His mother said that she didn't want any of her sons to be in the circus, so he had to only practice his flipping when they aren't home.

When Zack was twelve, he was introduced to American Football. He became a fan of the New Orleans Saints, and started to find people to play with. The sport became his passion, and he helped made it popular in his area. He would get other boys his age from the school to play with him for money prizes donated by his mother.

He became impressively good at the sport, so good, that he was offered spots on professional teams in the UK. One night, when he was fifteen, his parents had a long talk, and suggested moving to the United States so he could one day join the NFL. His mother wanted him to follow his dream, but his father wanted him to stay in England and work for him. Both of his brothers, who both live on their own now, sided with is father. This got into a heated fight, ending in divorce and a heated battle for custody. Six months later, his mother got sole custody of Zack, and they became dual-citizens of the United States together.

The two of them eventually got a house and settled in Newington, Connecticut. He enrolled in Autumn Springs High School right on time, starting his freshman year. There, he befriended Louis and The Gang.

## Personality

Born and raised in a sophisticated family, Zack was brought up to be rather proper. He is a very respectable person, with good manners and sportsmanship. He tried his best to remain completely straightened out, but everything changed when he moved to America.

While Zack retained fragments of his decorum, he grew up to become a bit more laid-back and carefree. High school changed him, and he really knows how to have fun at parties. He can go wild at points, which seems very much unlike him.

He is generally a very confident figure and doesn't show regret in anything he's done. He has a positive attitude and reminds himself everyday that he will go on and do great things. He believes he can do whatever he wants if he puts his mind to it.

There are points where Zack can act a bit snobbish. Everyone knows that he comes from great money, and how he carries himself says that enough.

Nonetheless, Zack is a very attractive figure. He has a typical English charisma that woos over everybody and makes everybody fall in love with him. Just the sound of his voice makes girls squeel with energy. He has a way with words like no other.
