Tweak says, "Impeach Bush"

Hola! My name is Raven, I'm happy to be here :D & I bring you Zuri Udaku, the lovechild of Ororo Munroe [Storm] & T'Challa Udaku [Black Panther.] In the technological world we call this game, Zuri is (of course) a retro child who doesn't like too many articles of clothing, makeup, hair products, or shoes. Now for some interesting factoids.

Zuri's abilities are magical and limited by what she knows (she's been mimicking her mother this entire time.) Should she eat the heart shaped herb her father eats, her magical world would explode and she'd have a better understanding for the root of who she really is.

She owns a floral shop/green house by the name of A New Leaf, that she created in the apartment building she owns in New York, New York. There are six floors she's willing to rent out, but only to mutants.

She also owns two animals. Zay, a one year old black/white Border-Chow mix that is missing her right back leg. Igor, a 12 week old Great Dane puppy who looks rather emo due to his gray, dark gray, and white coat.

She's only been in America for three years, speaks five languages all in her native accent (which makes French sound funny.)

She's mostly 'followed' by X-Men fans, and lives under the media radar. She's had two big stories: When she came to America (Princess Zuri Udaku of Wakanda....) and when she turned 21 and decided to go to a club. When no humiliating pictures could be taken, she stopped being followed as much. However her parents are still large political images, and therefore when she is in the news it's due to these facts, not her crazy lifestyle. & you can get in touch with me at StillNocturnal should you feel like talking XD

There's a lot more about her, but that's all I can think of now. Story lines are awesome, and I was wondering if anyone would be interested in having their pups been sort of pen pals with Zur while growing up? I figured the best bets for that would be children of Nightcrawler, Shadowcat, Wolverine, Iceman Cyclopes & Beast.

I read over bio and couldn't help but think that Elijah would absolutely adore her, and purely for how she conducts herself. If you'd like I can offer up Eli as one of the former penpals she had growing up? Granted she probably would be thrown off by his former reputation and who he is now, which could leave them room to learn to bond again? Plus, they both have dual citizenship in common! That's some random factoid they share.

Well, since Ororo adored Betsy (when they weren't fighting) & Angel is a given, it just makes sense that Zur & Eli would eventually have some sort of friendship! I can just see her watching Ororo write a letter to Warren & then Zuri going behind her and writing something really simple, or drawing a picture (I see her being maybe 8,) and just mailing it to the same address. Parents get it, give it to Eli for the hell of it, and a pen pal relationship is born! <~ I have a randomly elaborate imagination, forgive me lol.

In short, that'd be awesome. XD

	Aww, that sounds like an adorable way for them to meet. Especially since at that age Elijah would probably mail her back a picture to, but wouldn't know who to address it to so he'd be left having to ask Warren who made him the picture. And bam, they start getting to know each other over the years. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Would they have actually had contact in person as of yet? She's been in America for three years, but leaves for the entire month of January, sometimes into February to go home for her birthday month. & she hasn't been the biggest social person, and she doesn't tend to follow media blurbs about anyone - except SPLICE articles, those are just fun.

I wanna say that yes they've met when she arrived to The States? Like when she first arrived to New York, her mom did the parent phone tree thing and asked that they watch over Zuri to make sure she was ok. So Warren and Betsy told Eli to welcome the girl to the city and had them meet up and reminisce about being penpals while he showed her around the city? Or maybe he helped her get in contact with some of the businesses in the city when she first opened up her shop and from there their friendship blossomed even more?

	There are six floors she's willing to rent out, but only to mutants. I don't think that's legal. JUST SAYIN'. What happened to her doggy's leg? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	She doesn't advertise, so it's all good. Possible bar fight? Zay was picked up a few months ago from a shelter, so probably some form of animal abuse. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Well there's Miss Vic Summers whose as Snobby as they come but since Zuri's the daughter of the fierce Ororo Monroe then she'll probably love her. lizzyhowlett would get along with her since her parents (Logan and Jean) adored Ororo, maybe a childhood pen-pal as well? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	cloudburst 2009-03-24 04:58 pm UTC (link)
	I was hoping you'd have Miss Howlet up for pen-pal fundom. I can't see Ororo losing contact with Wolves or Jean (once she became undead, again) & that of course would leave doors open for the children. :D I'm up for pretty much any idea. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Oh, I can see Zur & Vic as pretty good frienemies, if you're interested in that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	crysallis 2009-03-24 09:49 pm UTC (link)
	Zur & Vic would be amazing frienemies! I was thinking that Lizzy and Zuri would hang out and be pretty good friends, maybe even pull the "remember when you wrote me and told me" lines and what not. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Aeva would lust to be her friend, especially if Zuri can dispell all clouds/bat weather from coming between her and her UV rays. I don't think Cheyenne will be a "ggrrr-eat!" fan of her, considering she seems to accept being a popular fan-follower. Chey might also have some preconceived ideas about her because of the way the media portrays her. (Reply to this) (Thread)

-sigh- I have to start with saying I love your pb, not so much her voice, but she's spunky.

Ok now, Zuri would love to have Aeva around, they can pick out flowers and arrange them in the greenhouse. Zuri's not "gggrr-eat" fan person either, she just does the cordial 'princess' smile/wave combo and leaves them alone! To the sky she may go...to get away...>.>; but I think she'd love Chey too, and love what she's heard about Dani. I love Dani lol.

Seriously!? I love Katy Perry!!!! (I kissed a girl, and I likeeedd ittt.)

Definitely! Aeva has the green house/green thumb drive in her. Since she has a form of photosynthesis, she could probably help organize even out door flowers, and what have you! She's a great gardening buddy. However, this New York weather sometimes, man... She would perhaps have to pursuade her newly made buddy to shed some light down, and get rid of "bat" weather.

Dani loves you!!! If Zuri is a fan of Dani, Cheyenne might be more inclined to open up. Especially if Zuri has a preconceived idea that Danielle is this mighty/brave/powerful/proud native american woman. Chey will quickly drop her ass back to earth, and tell her sooo much juicy stuff about what her mother does! It would be a live all, tell all.

And then, Zuri could sell it to X Magazine! *gasp*
