[*]The first aspects of Zoey's face that pop out before anything else are her ice blue eyes and sharp cheekbones. Her Dad often jokes that the latter were almost as a sharp as her tongue.

[*]Eyebags and dark shadows are common for Zoey, who doesn't get as much sleep as she really should. Between her visions, her work, and her own personal demons, she finds it hard to find peace some nights.

[*]Thanks to her prone clumsiness, it's not strange to see some form of bruise, cut or sizeable graze on the woman. She's a sport-loving maladroit, but her common injuries will never stop her from getting on the board again.

After several years of hard training, Zoey has been a licensed Forensic Pathologist for the past two and a half years now at Edgetoun's Coroner's Court. In her spare time she makes her own investigations into the bodies that come through her door. She can't explain her visions to the police without receiving a witch hunt, so she follows her psychic leads by herself.[/INDENT]

[INDENT]After the true discovery of her powers at the age of 15, Zoey was taken under the wing of her Aunt who introduced her to the Mutandum Coven. Zoey appreciates the help they give, but tries not to get involved in the witch politics going on. She also has no desire to branch out into other areas of magic, much to the ire of her Aunt.[/INDENT]

Ever since her power manifested itself all those years ago, Zoey has grown far more compassionate about the world around her. Seeing and feeling those people die and not doing anything to help has taken it's toll on the woman's [color=#9414b3][b]empathy[/b][/color], and is a large part of why she's chosen her career, and does her private investigations on the side. However, some of that can definitely be a direct cause of her [color=#9414b3][b]curiosity[/b][/color], or perhaps even [color=#9414b3][b]nosiness[/b][/color], depending on who you ask. She's always loved a good mystery, and embroiling herself into ones involving the supernatural of Edgetoun is piquing her interest every day. 

While she's fully aware of the dangers of doing what she does - not just the possibility of perverting the cause of justice in the eyes of police, or even pissing off the wrong Vampire or Demon, but that she could be outed as a supernatural creature herself - Zoey has always been a [color=#9414b3][b]careless[/b][/color] soul. Personal safety isn't always high on her list, and after a lifetime of [color=#9414b3][b]clumsiness[/b][/color] and adventure sports, she isn't about to give up the thrill of the chase now, especially when she relies on her [color=#9414b3][b]sharp[/b][/color] tongue and wit to get her out of trouble so much. Although [color=#9414b3][b]stubborn[/b][/color] as a mule when it comes to herself, she may hold herself back if the safety of others comes into concern. Her [color=#9414b3][b]protective[/b][/color] nature prevents her from harming other people, even by omission. Her patients may be dead, but she still has a Hippocratic Oath to uphold as a Doctor.

Mr and Mrs Alston knew that their daughter was quite strange ever since she was a toddler. Even before she could talk properly, it was like she knew things would happen. Having temper tantrums on the pavement right before her parents were to cross with her pram, causing them to stop and a car running a red light hurtling right past where they would have been otherwise. Somehow toddling off and reaching a fire alarm in a busy shopping center to pull it and cause an evacuation, only for an investigation to discover a dangerous gas leak. Even something as simple as her pulling a face and knocking a carton of fruit to the floor, for a venomous spider to scuttle away from inside of it and be shooed out of the house by her mother and a broom. Little things, but when all added up, very strange. However, her parents didn't know what to make of it, and simply chose to accept each occasion as it came. Even as they readied themselves to move homes from Australia to Britain for work, they eyed her daily, wondering if the then 10 year old girl would suddenly have a premonition of a downed flight or destruction of London. Nothing came, and so they made their move, taking their children with them quite happily, and never truly talking about these occurrences with their daughter. Still, it wasn't as if she hadn't eventually noticed herself.

Zoey had always been aware of her strange predictions coming true, but had never chalked it up to anything serious. They were odd little subconscious feelings, things she couldn't control or define beyond her gut telling her something. It was a strange little party trick of hers that she quite liked... until her first true vision, that is - and it wasn't a pleasant experience. A splitting headache paired with flitting, unclear images that seemed to last forever. By the time it was over she was pale and shaking, head still pounding away, and she had no idea what had really happened. The rational side of her explained it away as a migraine, brought on by the stress of GCSE exams. But she couldn't shake the images she had witnessed, nor the excruciating pain that had come with it. Her best friend Darrell - walking the seemingly quiet streets at night only for her to be hit by a car, thrown several feet before coming to a dead stop on the tarmac. But it was just a dream, and not wanting to freak her friend out, Zoey tried to forget about it, not contacting Darrell. The next morning, she had almost forgotten about her vision, until her pale-faced mother broke the news as gently as possible: Darrell had died last night, after being a victim of a hit and run accident. Zoey was dumbstruck, but anyone around her simply explained it away with grief. But she had felt the pain Darrell had felt with her vision; the impact of the car, her head cracking against the windshield and the absolute terror of the whole incident before hitting the ground with a crunch and the world turning black. Zoey had both seen and felt Darrell's death, but didn't do a thing to stop it, even though she could have with a simple phone call. From there, a deep guilt set in her heart, blaming herself for not having done something for poor Darrell. The only thing she could do was go to a payphone and put in an anonymous call to the police, giving them the type and number-plate of the car that had committed the offence, as the image was burned into her mind. The police caught the guy, and he was sent away for a long time - but Zoey decided that next time she had a vision, she wouldn't be so inactive.

To her surprise, a family member would make things a lot easier for her in terms of her visions. Her Mother's Sister, Aunt Helena, came to visit one day when the rest of Zoey's family was out. It turned out that this was no accident - Helena somehow knew of Zoey's visions, and was there to explain to her the family history. Lots of witches and magic, sometimes skips a generation, you've got great power and potential, blah blah blah. Although she was generally a sceptical person, Zoey hadn't been able to explain her visions. Nor could explain her Aunt's demonstration of magic powers in the living room when she set the sofa on fire, only for it to disappear and be good as new afterwards. It was here that Zoey was first introduced to the Mutandum Coven, in order to better understand and control her visions. However, this part of her life wasn't about to stop her from doing what she truly wanted to do in order to help others. 

At first, she had hoped to be a Doctor for the living. One who could save lives on the operating table, and make up for the lives lost in her past. But she quickly discovered that there were some people who just couldn't be saved, no matter how hard the Doctor worked. The dead would pile up in her mind, so she turned to a profession where the dead couldn't weigh on her guilty conscience. Not when they came to her as a cadaver, and not as a patient. While still studying her preliminary degree in medicine, she made a beeline for Forensic Pathology as early as she could. Although those who died in her presence as a resident still hurt, she knew she had something to look forward to. Saving lives retroactively, by investigating corpses and ensuring that whatever killed them didn't do it again. As she came to quickly realise upon the very first touch of a dead body, the visions that had plagued her for so long could aid her in this job. Accidentally brushing her bare wrist against the cold skin of a recently deceased patient, she experienced yet another vision. In a room full of Doctors and nurses, she blamed her collapse on hypotension in order to keep them satisfied - but she had seen something. Not the future, but the patient's past. Only glimpses, but she realised that if she could see their last moments, then she could solve crimes even if the police couldn't in the future.

Since then, that has been Zoey's main goal. Acquiring a fellowship and then acing the board exam of Pathology, she was now able to get a job as a fully practising Forensic Pathologist. Of course, this meant working under those who would do the actual autopsies for a while before she even got close to doing the work herself, but she could still sneak touches of their flesh to help find what ailed them. Sometimes it was suicide, sometimes just a mysterious death caused by a strange illness. But there were murders too, some of them not even human ones. Now the lead Doctor at Edgetoun Coroner's Court, Zoey undertakes investigations from the police, alongside private inquiries in regards to life insurance claims, families refusing to believe their loved died from whatever was first ruled, and those few mysterious "animal mauling" victims that never quite recovered. Bodies ripped apart, drained of blood, or simply just dying for absolutely no medical reason... Zoey knew about the world of the supernatural long before Nick Bloodfang, and it's never stopped her in her need to help her "patients".

While the nearby hospital has a licensed autopsy room for interest autopsies, those suspicious deaths involving the CPS have to be located elsewhere. This is where Zoey has her bodies transported for her to probe, aiming to find cause of death and other forensic evidence for police investigations. She and her co-workers call it "The Cutting Room" when speaking unprofessionally.

When chasing down a lead on one of her investigations, Zoey often finds herself here. Either to connect the dots to another place, or to find an individual inside willing to give her tips of information. She understands her busy-body nature might get her into trouble at such a Vampire-heavy place, but despite her better judgement, she enjoys the atmosphere and drinks here.

[b]Edgetoun University[/b]
After having studied for her MD here, Zoey often comes back to chat with old Professors, visit the library, or even give talks to medical students about Forensic Pathology to see if they'd be interested in going down that avenue. She's recently been thinking about pursuing a Professorship, though she has a while before she get far enough to achieve that.
