Zaira Castell

Zaira, a character in the Foreign Affairs book, is a student at Vancross Institute and one of your classmates. She is first seen in Chapter 2.

Appearance
Zaira has brown eyes, short brown hair with bangs, and light skin. She wears a black camisole under a translucent black blouse, a black and white choker, and black dangling earrings.

Personality
Zaira has the reputation of being a prankster at Vancross. Last year, she stole the dean's car piece by piece and put it back together on the roof her office; this almost caused her to be expelled from the institute. She thinks the prank was hilarious despite Evelyn's misgivings.

Despite her wild streak, Zaira is not personable or relatable when faced with public speaking. She comes off as unemotional and robotic, even though she cares about the civil unrest going through her country.
