Personal history
Zeb was born into the Yaeger Clan on the island of Myra in the Tera region of Janus. Zeb is the son of Saeris oligarch, Maeve Yaeger, the head of Yaeger Transports, and the grandson of the Saeris Lieutenant and former Regional Governor Rina Yaeger. Zeb has four siblings; three Saeris half-siblings-Aven, Heilyn, and Prys, and one Zahren sibling-Mal. Zeb grew up working in this family's business which controls all exports and imports to Janus. Being a member of the Yaeger Clan, Zeb was highly educated alongside children of high-ranking Saeris figures, including the children of many political and military figures. He learned how to wield his powers from the Saeris Guard, the masters that train the high-ranking military officers. With his mechanical intuition and manipulation powers, Zeb became a vital member of the Yaeger Transport crew. Zeb designed and built much of the equipment that Yaeger Transport uses in its shipping yards. Because of this skill and his familial ties, Zeb was exempt from military service.
In the Year 82593 when he was 14 years old, an accident causing an explosion in Yaeger Transports' main import yard severs Zeb's right arm off. The explosion severely damages the import yard and all of its goods. The explosion is deemed to be Zeb's fault. As punishment, Zeb's mother Maeve sends Zeb to the military academy where he becomes a ward and receives a Dyani-made prosthetic arm. Zeb completes his basic training and specialized skills training at Tera Technical Academy and is sent to the Alazander Military Complex just outside the Astran Dome on Aten for his first year of military service. Because of his technical skills, Zeb is assigned to vehicle and ship maintenance. While he served, Zeb saw the aftermath of the Seige of Astrid. Upon finally realizing what side of the occupation he was on, Zeb deserted the military and turned away from the ways of the Saeris and Janus. Zeb eventually found his way to Hallen where he worked as a mechanic in the shipyards. Zeb eventually met Kannan Zeke and the rest of the Waywards.

Ooh, first i have to say that his profile picture is so pretty! But poor Zeb, I feel bad that he was ousted by his family after having his arm severed, as if that wasn't punishment enough! :(
Thank you! I love Zeb so much. They all have some significant past trauma, but Zeb has one of the most traumatic of them all. The friends and family that he's found in the Waywards outweigh anything he ever felt for his biological family.
I'm glad Zeb is getting some love then! He certainly deserves it.
