Ziobe

 is a character in Torment: Tides of Numenera.

Background
This woman's face seems timeless - neither old nor young, unblemished but somehow not *perfect*. Her dark and wavy hair floats like a cloud to her shoulders. When she speaks, her voice is musical, almost artificial. Ziobe hails from the western reaches of the Clock of Kala, near Matheunis. She had the opportunity to find alongside her fellows in a number of conflicts, though lacking psychic capabilities, she is usually the most... Direct warrior.

Ziobe is part of Dhama's mercenaries. They have fought in a variety of conflicts, but they are all veterans of a true psychic war - a conflict that gripped Sagus Cliffs in the recent past, even if most of the cityfolk had no idea it was being waged.

According to Dhama, a malign group of beings emerged from the Bloom a few years ago, having passed through a Maw from some other world or dimension. They were beings of pure thought, and the psychics knew them only as the Adversaries. As soon as they arrived in Sagus Cliffs, they began to wreak havoc upon the minds of its citizens, inciting conflict, inflicting madness, and ruining lives.
