DO NOT REPOST/STEAL/TRACE!!!

*Update January 26th 2021: Added a new notable relationship.*

Three more things:
Even though they’ve changed affiliation. Their stories are still similar to the ones I gave them when they were part the slenderverse.
I’ve made my own creature inspired by Slenderman named: Tenebrose [Link]
All of my Sages have some sort of mental illness. This makes it easier for Tenebrose to possess and recruit them. Plus it makes it far easier to give them the Tenebris syndrome. If I did not portray the mental illness correctly in the ref, just comment down below. I did some research, but obviously I could never truly know what it’ll be like.

Strengths: Great aim, great at observation, has basic survival skills.
Weaknesses: Gets scared easily, gets lost easily, trouble breathing sometimes.
Disorders:
Schizophrenia
A serious disorder which affects how a person thinks, feels and acts. Someone with schizophrenia may have difficulty distinguishing between reality and imagination.
Zach's great grandfather was believed to have suffered from this disorder, thus Zach inherited it from him. When he was younger he had much more trouble staying focused and would often be withdrawn. The older he got the more he was able to stay in reality.
Sleepwalking
Zach started to develop this after his encounter with Tenebrose. The stress and fear are probably what caused him to start doing this. In this state Zach just walks around, mumbling words and picks up objects to only throw them away. It is also very difficult to wake Zach up once he is in this state.
Tenebris syndrome (level 4)
The person starts suffering from headaches and unexplained nosebleeds every once in a while. They start coughing up blood, hallucinations start to appear and they become paranoid. Later they’ll get sick and emotionally unstable. Eventually they become restless, suffer from insomnia and sleepwalking. Tenebrose is able to completely possess the person without struggle.

Relationships

Family:

Father: Joshua Bridge.
Joshua was a strong and prideful man. He has known Lin since high school and has loved her forever. it wasn't until the two cross paths again that they decided to date and eventually marry. Zach had a very close bond with his dad and has the exact same sense of humour. When he vanished Josh made sure that the school would someday close its doors and it eventually happened when other students went missing.

Mother: Lin Pham-Bridge.
A mother and wife who wants only the best for both her boys. Zach had a great relationship with his mother. She tried her best to make Zach happy and was willing to give him anything he wanted. She was devastated when her son vanished.

Pet: Tazy.
Zach found the rottweiler in the forest when she was a puppy. He decided to take her home and trained her to be his guard. She is very protective over Zachary.

Notable relationships:

Best friend/leader: Ivan Clinton.
Like Ivan, Zach takes every mission seriously. The two are rather close and are often seen hanging out together after work.

Best friend: Cody Salinger.
Zach met Cody at the school his parents sent him too. The two could get along just fine and Zach actually thought he was cute. Sadly Cody was taken and started to feel unsafe around him. The reason was that he attacked him while sleepwalking. Even though Cody is a Cambion, both boys still hang out sometimes.

Best friend: Brandon Truman.
Zach met Brandon at the school for troubled teens. The two were roommates and despite Zach sleepwalking, Brandon didn’t mind. He thought it was rather interesting to see. He was the last person Zach saw, before being taken by Tenebrose.

Best friend: Marnix Connor.
Like Cody and Brandon, he met Marnix at school. Marnix was the odd one out, but could make Zach laugh whenever he needed it.

Friend: Ricardo Rivera.
Zach genuinely likes Ricardo. He helps him whenever he needs and is always listening to him.

Friend: Hana McCollin.
He met Hana while he was training his dog, funny enough she was doing the exact same thing. Despite the language barrier, the two got along just fine. Whenever they have time they chat over in Discord and catch up on how their day was going. They often let their dogs play with each other.

Short story

Joshua and Lin wanted to have a child for a long time. They were told that the chances were small for them to actually have one of their own. However, against all odds, Lin became pregnant. Zach was a kind-hearted, yet panicky little boy. His parents didn't think much of it.
At the age of 7, Zach had encountered the Tenebrose. He suffered from a disorder called tenebris Syndrome, but doctors mistake this for his schizophrenia getting worse. It caused him to have problems with any daily task or even sleeping. Not long after Zach started to sleepwalk, waking up both his parents in the middle of the night. They were scared that he might hurt himself, so they would take turns keeping an eye on their son.
His parents decided that it would be safer to send him to a school who knows how to deal with this. Here he was given a sleeping schedule, medication and sometimes they hypnotised him. It did help for a while. He started to sleepwalk less and seemed to be less irritated during the day.
A few months went by and he started to feel as if someone was watching him, this made him feel paranoid. Causing him to ignore his sleeping schedule, refuse to take his medications and refusing to try hypnosis again. When the employees asked him what was going on, he just told them the truth, that he didn't feel safe anymore. The employees assure him that whatever he felt wasn't real and that there was no need to be afraid. Promising that they would help and protect him.
Zach disappeared a few days later. The reason why or what exactly happened to him is unclear till this day.

Sage info

Sage’s rank: Sleeper, Stalker.

Reason why he was chosen: Zach was easy for Tenebrose to take over. Plus his build and charisma would be useful to him.

Weapons of choice: Sniper gun, knife or cleaver for close combat.

How he kills/harms: If he has to kill, he’ll kill them with one shot. As for harm, he'll often stab/cut his victims.

Motive for killing: It’s mainly the fear of what Tenebrose would do to him if he refused.

Relationship with Tenebrose: It’s an alright relationship. Even though Zach is much quicker to listen to Ivan, rather than Tenebrose. In his sleeper state he’s completely loyal to Ten.

Notes/Facts
Zachary is Vietnamese from his mom's side and Caucasian from his dad's side.
Despite being Vietnamese from his mom's side, Zach never learned the language.
Since Zachary’s name is more caucasian, I wanted to change his appearance to be more of an Asian to balance him out more. If that makes sense.
He knows how to play the bass guitar.
I can imagine him being one of those people who just makes you smile no matter what.
As he is a sniper, his dog will alarm him when someone comes from behind him.
