Background:
Born in the Democratic Republic of Congo his mother, Ayotunde, and father, Baako, had rejected the new life that had gripped the nation and lived a life of harmony with nature. They lived deep with in the Congo Basin. They lived a very simple life living in a small hut and using and living on what mother earth can give them. His mother fell pregnant with twins and before they were born his father increased the size of the hut until it was large enough to house two adults and two children and when the twins were born the hut was ready and so was the rest of the family. The twins were Born on January 3rd 1969 the first born was named Zareb, meaning protector, and the last Born was named Dayo, meaning joy has returned.
From the second they were born the twins were inseparable. They were taught from a young age to respect all life and were also taught the christian religion. For the first few years of their life they were either in the hut or being carried by their mother or father when they were out. From a young age Zareb seemed to have a close connection to animals growing up around so many of them and it seemed like he was able to befriend them.
As he was in the Congo Basin he did not attend school and was instead taught to read and right by his parents. However the main thing on the agenda was always religion though not the same way as it is now taught across the world where he would have been taught all major religions and to respect their view points he was taught Christianity and that was it. To be more precise he was taught Catholicism and the only object they had that they did not make was a bible that took the center place in the house. He never took to religion when he was younger. That was not to say that he did not believe just that he would rather be doing something else than reading the bible or praying. He was usually found climbing a tree or following a Gorilla. This was much to his parents hate who wanted to make sure their children s souls would be safe when they died and would not go to hell.
At the age of fourteen his parents left to gather food and left the two boys to look after themselves. It was nothing new and it had been done a few times so the boys were used to it. They had to read more of the bible but instead they explored the Basin and returned home late. They were sure their parents would be mad but when they got back they were not there. They waited and slept the night until in the morning they went out searching.
In the morning with the sun burning the ground they went out. They split up to find their parents hours they searched but to no avail until Zareb came across their bodies they had been attacked and killed but he never found out by what. In his anger his mutation manifested and he transformed into a six foot, as he was not fully grown neither was his demonic form the same goes that he was only able to lift fifteen tons then, demon. He began to pound the trees surrounding him ripping them from the roots and then he saw what he had become and he believe he was a demon. With great ease he picked hie mother and fathers bodies up and walked home. When he returned he turned back crying and waiting for his brother to return. It was hours before he did and by then he had buried them and marked their graves with a carved cross. When his brother returned he was juts as devastated.
With his mother and father dead he did not sleep that night and in the morning he and his brother did not talk. Zareb knew he had to carry on and made food for them to survive but they remained silent and their fourteen years of close bond was destroyed in a few short hours.
Zareb still hid his secret. He had never heard of a Mutant and had no idea that was what he was he believed he was possesd by the devil and remained in silence. How could he tell hie brother he would think he was mad or an evil spirit. However he had to admit he loved the power he got from it but he knew if he continued what he was doing them he would be damned forever. However that changed when men were coming near his home. They were strange he had never seen a white man before they dropped something on the ground and he picked it up he latter learned it was a newspaper and he was able to read it, thanks to his mother and father who had taught him English. It was talking about Mutants. And after reading he realized that was what he was...a Mutant. It made him feel better and that he was free to use his....gift?
He showed his brother the paper who then told him he thought he was a Mutant as he could move water. When Zareb told him what he could do he was jealous but thought it was amazing. Together they went on to discover each of them had the same gifts. When his brother showed him how he moved water Zareb mimicked him and found he could do the same, all of a sudden their bond was back.
His Brother asked him if he thought he would be able to do the same and they gave it a try. He told him to imagine he was the creature and think of strength and power. When he did they both transformed though they looked the same there markings were different colors. Where Zarebs were red and black his brothers were green and blue. They began to wrestle and found they had extraordinary strength and each time they fought to a stalemate. They also developed their water powers. While Zareb wanted to help people hie brother did not. He wanted people to worship him he wanted to be a king and he made plans to become one. Together they discovered a village of people who had rejected modern living and they moved in.
The village was a democracy. With no ruler and everyone, even the woman, go a say in how the village was run. Zareb wanted to be honest and came clean about everything. This caused a large meeting but they eventually decided they could stay. The village had about twenty people living their and his brother believed they should be in charge. They may be young but they were the most powerful there. Zareb disagreed but when he went into the forest for a week he found out he had taken control of the village and its people. When he returned Zareb was shocked at what he saw. He made the villagers follow his every demand. Zareb new he had to fight his brother and he was scared. They were completely even, Zareb thought he may have had a slight edge, and the fight could go either way.
At the age of fifteen he fought his brother. The battle was ferocious both having super strength Zareb tried to get him away from the village but his brother staying put. No one could get the upper hand until Zaren noticed he could draw water from the plants around him. He knew he could defeat his brother with it but he would have to kill many trees in the process. He decided he had to do it. He drew water from the trees seeing them with and die as he did it. With two gallons of water at his disposal he launched it at his brother blowing him back. He fled.
Zareb turned around to see the village destroyed. The fight had all but anhiliated it and the chief ordered him to leave he knew it was his right and began to argue but he decided he should not and left as a fifteen year old boy. With no where to go he lived alone in the Basin. It was there he laerned of his final power. He was able to talk to animals, real conversation. He loved it and dedicated his life to protecting them from humans.
The next year a group of humans came to destroy a group of monkeys home range. He used water to destroy their machines and turned into the demon and made them flee. Every time he did that he felt like he was helping the monkeys and he loved the feeling. However he never stayed in once place to long. Four four years he protected the Basin until he left it for a new world. The Sahara.
When he arrived in the desert he found it overwhelming. It was so new and different however he liked it and began to find a new home. He came across a cave and made his home there it was larger than anything he had called home and he found it luxurious. He soon realized their was little to eat and he spent hours searching for edible Fauna but each time he did he found it had little water. It was then he realized their was water in the air and he was able to use it. It began with small amount of water but soon he made a large pool for animals to drink from and soon he had his own mini garden.
He stayed there for five years before he left once more. It took him months to get out of the desert but when he did he found himself in Egypt. He came to Gaza and he was amazed. He had never seen so many people and he was petrified. However he decided he wanted to experience everything in life so he got a job working in a shop and bought a home. He thought his life was pointless until he found a young woman who he loved. They were married and when he was twenty six they had their first child Efuru, meaning Daughter of Heaven.
Suddenly he was happy and for four years he loved his life. Although he was not with his beloved animals he had a family and he could not be happier until his brother destroyed it. He had shown his wife his powers and when he left his brother turned up pretending to be him. He told them to leave or he would kill them and they did thinking her husband had threatened her life and their child's she left never to return. Zareb returned to find a note form his brother. There once love had turned into Hate.
He began to chase him across countries. And for seven years he evaded him until they met in America. In Alaska they had a massive fight. They were knee deep in snow both using Water and there Demonic form the fight made the others look like a child s spat. Eventually Zareb defeated him but hesitated to give the final blow. His brother hit him with a slab of ice believing him to be dead he left. Zareb awoke in a jail like structure.
He had been imprisoned for being a Mutant and they had no idea what he could do. He was locked in a cell. He began to pound on the doors but they filled the room with gas and he fainted. When he awoke he tried to break out and this time he succeeded. He made it out of the prison and got to Texas where he made a new start.
Anything else you'd like to add:
As stated in his history his religion is very...original. Although he is a very devout christian, as was his father and his father before him, he also takes allot from the ancient African traditions not the numerous gods and goddesses but the belief that all live is scared and should be treated as such, that is the reason he is a vegetation.
