Personality
Though he's been defined clinically with Multiple Personality disorder, he maintains a pretty normal state of mind (thanks to his medication). Rarely anything sets him off, outside being called crazy, or going off his meds entirely
In-Game History
Zappa is half-Austrailian, his mother being native, and his father an American Naval officer. He found himself unusually lonely in childhood, despite having many friends, and having a very loving mother and father; both of which is was very close to. At the age of 6 he and his family moved to the states. Soon into his American schooling, he met his first love, Samara. For years the two were rather close, until, at the age of 12, Samara, and her family moved, leaving an empty place in Zappa's heart.
At the age of 10, Zappa's mother and father's marriage begain to unravel; starting with minor fights, and progressively more violent and unnerving. Quite often, Zappa was unwillingly forced to take sides per conflict, each one slowly breaking ties from his parents toward him. By 15, Zappa's parents decided to divorce. During the seperation, neither wanted to claim custody, though he had no relatives in America to be sent to. The shock of this news, stacked with years of progressive rejection, left him a little worse for wear mentally, slowly developing a personality to handle the pain and rejection from his parents. Now, 16, he begins his first year, his sophomore year, at Clairbourn.
Within 2 days of starting, he had is first public outburst of personalities due a network entry made by Nina Verenheit. This prompted a revenge plot amongst him and several students, as well as the impromptu joining of himself and Mina Aino as a couple. The plan quickly fell into obscurity as Zappa begain to see Nina as more of a friend, than a foe.
A week and a half before the Winter Break, Zappa was called to family therapy by court order; an attempt for his parents to reconcile. During the sessions, many of the parent's problems were unjustly placed under Zappa's blame. It was not long before Zappa struck his father, as well as began speakin in 3rd person, and multiples. Further psychological study of his actions diagnosed Zappa with Multiple Personality Disorder, through causes of emotional dissassociation. He is currently under medication for his condition.
During the Winter Break, Zappa began aiding Ash Crimson and Madarame Ikkaku search for the the missing Nina Verenheit.
Second semester 07-08
For the most part, life was going well. He was still with Mina, still working and still cosplaying. He'd even obtained the Passione model Guido Mista as a roomate. But it wasn't long until Zappa had become discontent with himself, feeling a fake happiness overcome him, rather than being happy on his own, with the things that made him happy. He went off his medication, which immidiately turned cataclysmic, his mischivious personality quickly filtering Mina out on a post where he attempted to flirt with the newest student Rip van Winkle. Nina and Johnny both stepped in, Nina showing more concern toward Zappa, and Johnny taking to Mina's aid.
When they finally saw eachother to talk about it again, the couple exchanged unpleasantries, both parting ways on the brink of tears. Zappa went home, cursing his medication if a fit of tears, quite heavily considering cutting himself on the mirror that he shattered with the bottle of his meds. His long dormant depressed persona surfaced, going so far as to pass himself off as a new student, rather than deal with confronting anyone who might know anything that happened between the two; Mina and Nina in particular. Donning a long black wig and 'borrowing' one of Mista's shirts, he went to school, calling himself simply C.
The age of C, the centipede spirit
C feels his life is filled to the brim with bad luck, and a lack of things to be truly happy about. He claims his parents only named him C, and even went so far as to not bother putting their last name on the birth certificate; through prying will result in the answer of Entipede.
On his first day of school, he spent most of it wandering the halls, bumping into people, most of which literally. He's already being bullied by Dy, and has met Tab, Mai and Giorno for the first time, Dizzy for the second. Giorno, of all people, was the first to pick up on his facade, recognizing Mista's one-of-a-kind shirt. Keeping to subtleties, he confided slightly in him, nearly breaking down thinking about the upcoming fashion show. After meeting Rip, he decided to persue his interest in her (mostly derived from the fact her hair is longer than 'his'). Both new students, lacking in motivation to attend class, skipped out, going to the mall instead.
C managed to attend the fashion show, getting to know Nuriko shortly after. As such, he was inspired to begin creating again, after recently having destoryed much of his clothing and his heart motif. He ran into Mista, Millia, and Mina on his day off at his job at JoAnn's. It was an awkward conversation speaking with Mina, but he made it through without sheding a tear, just trembling in paranoia.
Shortly after Mista had moved out, Giorno had the intention of moving in, which was delayed by his own emotional issues, giving the two a closer bond when it came time that he did move in. Deciding it was time to see if he could make things right, he began on his medication, and posted as Zappa on the network. Millia and Mina were quick to jump on him about his three week absence, as well as Rip showing concern.
Zappa finally made his return to school, rather unwillingly, as Dynamo forced him out of his facade right in front of Mina; which earned him a well deserved and much desired punch to the face, before returning home.
Summer of 2008
Zappa had an unfortunate run-in with one of the new freshman, Sadako Yamamura.
