Ebony: (a black wood; often used: 'as black as Ebony')
Ebony is the beautiful leader of the evil locusts. Ebony knows how to fight for what she wants.
Ebony was known as 'Zoot's Woman' she had a thing with Bray before the virus but left him for Zoot and 'Power and Chaos'. Ebony takes pleasure in stirring things up for other people and is definately a great character, she has an attitude and looks after number one, she knows how to survive. When Zoot died Ebony became leader of the locusts (the locos). Ebony is the complete opposite to most of the mall rats, she doesnt strive for a better world but revels in the one the virus created, no matter how much she's put down or defeaten she picks herself up and moves on and up. Ebony thrives on power and fear of her. Ebony was in the explosion during eagle mt, she fooled Amber into believing that she (Ebony) and Bray had a baby, therefore making Amber leave and Ebony dig an empty grave for her. Ebony was a mall rat after that briefly as the locos tried to tear her up just before eagle mt, Ebony left the mall rats after causing conflict and lead the militia. Which she viewed as their first line of defence, in Bray's it was attack. Ebony was the first to realise the chosen wern't actually finished but in hiding. The Guardian framed Ebony for all the mysterious disappearences by planting Spike's body in her pool, Bray came and found it and immediately didn't believe her. The Guardian tried to have Ebony terminated by the jetti but Ebony survived after the Guardian assumed she drowned. Ebony fled for the hills leaving the mall rats, claiming she owed them nothing. Ebony rescued Bray with the help of Lex and they fled for the woods. When they found Amber, Bray hated Ebony for what she did, and nearly killed her in a fight. Bray brought Trudy back from rescueing her after the guardian, Ebony and Lex were appauled at him rescuing 'The Fruitcake'. Ebony has strenth and courage which keeps her going and knows how to deal with her enemies.
