==Personality==
When a person is mute for all of their lives, one would think this would lead to some sort of psychological trauma. That this person would have come to resent their disability, and the world in general. They’d become a dark individual, always asking the question “Why did this happen to me? Why didn’t it happen to someone else?”
One would think that, although with a zebra named Nyamazi this was not the case. In fact, she is surprisingly well-adjusted despite her disability. She has long since grown to accept it and work around it. Learning to read and write from an early age, carrying around a chalkboard with a supply of hoofmade chalk, learning how to ‘speak’ her mind through expression. She has strived to not let her disability hinder her.
In spite of this, or perhaps because of it, she is a rather upbeat mare. She may never say a word but more often than not she has a smile on her face. She has learned to see the good in every person, every situation, no matter the bad. This is a rare trait to come across in the wasteland.
The mare also manages to be rather snarky, despite not being able to say a word. At times you can just see the snark oozing off her expression, and from what she writes on her board. She may be able to see the good in everything, but that doesn’t mean she also can’t poke fun at everything when she wants to.
==History==
There was nothing immediately special about Nyamazi when she was born, at least not anymore special than any foal is to their parents, even in the wasteland. Her parents in question were a pair of traveling zebra caravanners named Mlinzi and Usiku. They took a caravan across the Equestrian Wasteland, selling supplies to settlements and smaller items to anyone who was interested.
As with most couples they wanted a child, and after several months of pregnancy, one night after setting up camp for the night, Mlinzi went into labor. After several hours of screaming (The Caravan guards and Usiku had to shoot more than a few raiders thinking they’d find an easy kill) their foal was born without any complications. Her birth was unusually quiet, there was no crying at all coming from the child. Because of this they named her Nyamazi, Zebrican for ‘Silent’, although they would soon learn that this was actually a terrible premonition.
A month went by and the couple and their guards never heard a peep from the young child. When the time came where a equine, pony or zebra, would normally start talking she said nothing. Nothing else seemed wrong with the foal, she was perfectly healthy as far as anyone could tell. Regardless they were worried, and since they were about to make a food drop to Tenpony Tower they decided to pay a visit to Doctor Helpinghoof.
After a medical examination the doctor had informed the couple that their child was, for the most part, healthy. There was one issue though, her vocal cords. They were underdeveloped, completely unusable. Their daughter was mute. And there was nothing the doctor could do to fix it. He mentioned that there were cybernetic enhancements that could replace their daughter’s vocal cords, but he wouldn’t know where to find them, and even then at her age cybernetic augmentation was incredibly risky.
The two zebras left with their child, dejected. After a late-night conversation the two decided that, instead of doing something truly horrible like leaving her out in the wasteland to die, they would do their best to raise their child despite her disability.
With their child’s best interests at heart the years went by. Nyamazi grew up to be a strong young mare. She learned to read and write at a rather young age, and became accustomed to communicating with others through her chalkboard. She was a bright young filly, eager to learn new things, and had soon learned how to live with disability she was afflicted with.
As she grew up, she became more and more involved in the family business. She learned how to use her mother’s old rifle and helped fend of Raiders from the caravan, becoming quite a good shot. After messing around with some lockpicks and a locked crate her parents had found, the two planning to bring it to someone with skill in opening locks, she discovered she had a talent with a pick and managed to crack open the crate, revealing a large supply of ammunition that her parents were able to make a hefty profit on. And when the caravan nearly ran into an explosive boobytrap set up by bandits hoping to loot their wagon, she managed to disarm it and send it flying right back at the bandits in the middle of a firefight.
The bright filly grew into a bright mare, one who had long learned to accept that she would never be able to speak. She had become quite adapt at the skills she had picked up as a filly, she was a crack shot with her mother’s old rifle, could open up most locked crates and chests she and her parents had come across, and was quite capable of disarming explosives and hurling dynamite at any raiders foolish enough to try to attack their caravan. But one day Nyamazi decided that she wanted to go out and make something of herself. She knew the Equestria Wasteland was a very dangerous place, and although she loved her parents dearly she didn’t want to be stuck with them all her life.
Her parents were hesitant at first, but eventually relented, accepting their daughter’s wishes. They were proud of the strong, independent mare she had become, despite the massive disadvantage that was given to her. After a heartfelt goodbye, and a promise that she’d be careful and would be sure to visit them, Nyamazi set out, determined to make something of herself, with nothing but the cloths on her back, the supplies that were given her, a chalkboard, and the trusty rifle she had been using for years.
