Childhood and early life
Acacia Fero (unknown date 1990s - ) is a Witchwarper botanist, who currently serves Latitude Zero as a member of the Zone Fighters.
Early Life
Acacia was born in [redacted], outside of Oslo, Norway, to her parents Winston Fero and Willow Silva. Following in her father's footsteps, she was interested in biology and botany, from an early age, showing significant talent in academics. She graduated University of Oslo, in 2018, with a doctorate in Botany, with a double-major in Cultural Anthropology.
Scientific Career
Doctorate
Acacia was instrumental in furthering the work of her father, who specialized in the research of botanical compounds for pharmaceutical purposes. Acting as his lab assistant, she was instrumental in the development of numerous compounds, that eventually went into wide-spread production, commercially.
Mutation & After-effects of Treatment
Sometime in the late-2020s, Acacia began to show symptoms of an unknown infection. After rigorous testing, a malignant mass was revealed in her brain, that showed unusual signs of radioactivity. Her father devoted his entire career to evaluating, and eradicating the growth, to no avail. Eventually, he recruited the skills of an old-world Druid, from deep in the forests of Scandinavia. After a lengthy and painful ceremony, involving ritualistic magic, there was no apparent effect.
As a last resort, her father responded to a correspondence to Bio-Major, an American corporation that promised to be able to cure her, after a lengthy evaluation period, followed by a year in cryogenic stasis.
In reality, Acacia was placed into long-term cryogenic stasis, preserving her, during the impending apocalypse.
Post-Apocalypse
After over 50 years in cryo-stasis, despite being promised a brief period, Acacia awoke in the same Bio-Major facility, where she was put to sleep. Upon awakening, she escaped the facility, becoming increasingly aware of her new powers and magical potential, deciding to travel to a familiar locale, heading to Svalbard, Norway; to an isolated botanical facility, in the Arctic Circle, where she spent years of her internship.
Despite numerous hardships, she arrived at the seed vault, unsure if her father would still be there, after so much time had passed. Instead of her father, she found his colleague, Dr. Botanist, his research partner. Seeing her as a valuable asset to his research, he invited her in, making her his assistant, in his ongoing biological experiments. In her role, she acted as both his assistant, and caretaker, since Dr. Botanist had become moderately unhinged during the interim, in isolation.
Eventually, a group of marauders managed to locate and infiltrate the seed vault, but were wiped out by the mutated staff members that remained in the facility. Weeks later, another group breeched the vault, much to the suspicion of the doctor, but his fears were alleviated by the diplomacy of Acacia.
