In-Depth Appearance
Zeke is an African-American man with coffee bean-brown skin that is free of blemishes. His deep-brown eyes can be described as black, but this is a common misconception. He sports a simplistic hairstyle, a small afro, often cutting it low in the summer months. Despite its simplicity, he seems to care for it more than himself at times, often picking it out when grown at ill opportune moments. Zeke sports a shining smile, his white teeth protected by unusually full lips, for a man at least.
Standing straight at 6'0" and weighing over 185 pounds, Zeke shows off the key traits of a New York kid, tall and muscular, a bit. Despite being ragged on for his poor physical fitness, he is quite well-built, though he tends to stand with poor posture, slouching over.
The greatest and most important part of Zeke's outfit is his shoes, often sporting expensive Jordans, Nikes, or Addias. He is rarely seen wearing any other brand, and is often seen cleaning them when he isn't messing with his hair. Besides is unusual shoe fetish, all other brands are fair game. Zeke will be usually seen wearing casual clothing such as sweats and a t-shirt. Unfortunately, he finds himself addicted to the comfort that it provides, and will often wear such clothes to the worst of events. An example of this is a time when he wore joggers and a plain grey t-shirt to his aunts wedding. After that incident, he didn't see the light of day for a whole week. On a serious note, when Zeke needs to dress respectablely, he can be seen in a red hoody with a clean white t-shirt, blue slim-fit jeans, and his staple red and white Jordans, he strives to match.

Habits and Quirks
- Nappy Hair: Zeke will find himself constantly picking at his hair, even when its fine. He never leaves home without a pic, often leaving it in his hair for easy access.

- Shoe Fetish: Zeke will never be seen in anything other than Jordans, Addias, or Nikes, and would rather walk barefoot than be in anything else. Despite never being exactly privileged growing up, Zeke feels that wearing shoes like theses gives off the appearance of good living.
- Potty Mouth: Zeke curses 'alot' for a New York kid. Sometimes he will find himself dropping f-bombs or female dogs when frustrated.
- Ladies Man: Quami ends up falling in love with girls that aren't related to him, so he finds himself flirting with alot of the women he sees, but he means no harm.

Personality
Zeke knows that his thoughts don't follow the popular veins of the hero mentality. On the surface, he comes off as a rather silly and lighthearted person, frequently engaging in comical behavior and retaining his oft-present grin even while making threats. He displays a childlike amusement for new situations whether or not they prove adverse or even potentially fatal, he has a penchant for wandering off on his own. Even with all these idiosyncrasies, Zeke is extremely personable and has a particularly complimentary nature that easily gains him the friendship and trust of those surrounding him.
Of course, these aspects hide the complex and determined young man underneath. On the reverse side of his frivolous nature is his considerable shrewdness, which makes him quite capable of reading people and situations. He is particularly observant, taking into consideration even the smallest details of his surroundings in order to better understand and deal with challenges and is not above using cheap tricks or questionable tactics to ensure his own survival. Being singularly ambitious, and also has a remarkably tenacious will that allows him to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles and accept burdens for the sake of his own goal. Zeke has a considerable pride that will not stand for having his humanity or skills insulted or condemned by others, but he is also capable of shelving his pride if it becomes something that will stand in the way of his objective.
Zeke is very protective of family and friends, refusing to allow any harm to come to them and often deem their safety more important than his own in spite of his own personal ambitions and goals. He has to be reminded several times that his own safety is something upon which many people depend and he uses his loved ones as his primary motivation when all hope seems lost. As such, he becomes furious when observing those who willingly or remorselessly cast aside their own comrades or brethren and is sickened by the idea of superiors who reject their duty to those who trust them to indulge in thier own personal pleasures.

Origins
Background
Zeke was born in the hustle and bustle of Brooklyn, New York. His childhood was fairly uneventful, but is what he considers the best years of his life. Most of his childhood was spent running around streets of his neighborhood with the other kids. Sometimes, Zeke wouldn't come home till 11:00 at night, most likely just playing basketball at the park. Despite his mothers warnings to come home earlier and earlier, Zeke played on, often coming home to 'spankings', at least until he turned 13 at which his mother no longer cared at that point.
Living on the streets, Zeke experienced all kinds of things, drugs, sex and alcohol, but this was done one or twice and never done again. In the neighborhood that he resided in, living without a father was a normality, even a badge of honor that many of its resident children wore. Zeke was the same, often boasting that he didn't even know his name, but on the inside, the crushing loneliness was always there, constantly gnawing on the edges of his consciousness.
Despite the ripples that went on underneath, Zeke's life went on as normal, playing on the streets, coming him late, being scolded by his mother. Things began to change when his grandmother began to live with them when he turned 14. This development changed his life, no longer was he allowed to play outside as often under his grandmothers watch, who was a devout Seventh Day Adventists. Everytime he went out of line, he was beaten with a belt and called a little devil, which nurtured a hatred not for his grandmother, but for religion in general. He was constantly dragged every Sunday to church, but always found himself falling asleep during the sermons.
At age sixteen, for the first time in his life, information about his father came out. His grandmother, in a rage after he came home from a fight, accidentally told him that he was just like his father, "a man who's hands was soaked in blood'. After confronting his mother about it, she confessed, telling him that at one point, she had been a store clerk, that much he knew. She fell in love with a man soon after her career took off, and had to quit after Zeke was born. In his life, he had done some bad things in his life.
Zeke's mom did everything she could to allow for him to live comfortably, working jobs she hated, skipping meals, all so that they could share a crummy studio apartment. This was the definition of a normal childhood to him. His mom didn't take this opportunity to complain or criticize his father. In other words, his mom didn't present his childhood as abnormal, so Zeke didn't perceive it as such.
Despite this, there was always unpredictable periods of loneliness, especially when he heard stories of other kids father's at school. Zeke could never hate his father, but when growing up, trying to conjure an image of him would result in seeing a piece of furniture than anything else. His father meant little to him. You don't miss what you've never experienced.
At age 24, Zeke's basketball career began, soon becoming an Nba player. After a few years of amazing gameplay though, his career ended after a devastating injury. Devastated, Zeke looked any answer to return to the sport, unfortunately, the only answer was cybernetics, which was ban in the the Nba. Zeke was soon offered an alternative from the medical division them selves, a suit that could allow him to play, with the addition of cybernetics that was approved by the association.
Zeke soon became the poster body for the suit and cybernetics, showing off its power and ability to embody legends. Unfortunately, the whole thing didn't gain traction with that fans, and the ions of dollars wasted on Zeke and the suit was for nothing. But an executive had an idea, in light of the recent terrorist events, and NBA mascot hero, utilizing the power of players, could encourage the usage of it. After 3 years of training, Zeke was thrust into the battle against terrorist, all he really wanted was to play again.
