Biography
Known for her discretion, Zara worked as a bodyguard for the criminal and wealthy and made good money doing it. When things got too close for comfort, she'd just move on - a new identity, a new job. Then, when her identity got flashed onto the Data Pool by an enemy, she had to go underground to ensure she survived long enough to get revenge.

Zara skipped to the fringes and took on new work, playing as a hired gun for a group of edgerunners. It didn't pay as much, but it was much more safer.

Development
Zara was created by Mike Pondsmith with the help of Angel Giuffria, one of "The Cyber6" - as Pondsmith likes to think. Five of the Cyber6 have real world prosthetic limbs and it's something the writers of thought a lot about. This inspired the creation of the group of six edgerunners.


 * An actress, model, and disability representation in the media advocate, Angel Giuffria was born missing her left arm below the elbow. The youngest person in the world to be fitted with a myoelectric prosthesis, Angel stays on the cutting edge of bionic technology because she believes it is important for users to be involved in the process.
