Zayne
Zayne and the MC were childhood friends, who had lost contact around the time Zayne went to college. It was only after more than a decade later, when he and the MC were reunited, when Zayne became her primary care physician.
Zayne graduated from the Department of Clinical Medicine at Skywalk University Medical School, where he obtained his master's degree and PhD. His expertise is in complex congenital heart defect corrective surgery, aortic valve regeneration and repair (Evol-based), atrial septal defect repair (Evol intervention), Evol-assisted heart valve repair, heart transplant.
He is currently the chief surgeon of the Division of Cardiac Surgery at Linkon Central Hospital, lead researcher of the Evol-Cardiac Medical Laboratory (AEC), and PhD advisor of the Skyhaven University Medical School (Chapter 4-5).
Personality and interest[edit | edit source]
Zayne is often described as someone who seems cold and intimidating from appearance. It had been mentioned several times by his former classmates and current colleagues, that it was quite hard at the beginning to start a conversation with him, as he gave off the vibe of wanting others to stay away(Anecdote a pure white heart). This impression however would never last long, as his kind and gentle nature are very hard not to notice.
His personality could be described as sensible in thinking and sensitive at heart. He is mature, responsible, highly self-aware and self-disciplined, when it comes to his own personal life and matters, but quite empathetic and compassionate when treating others. Despite being quite firm and upfront about his own opinion, he had never pressured them on others. As long as it doesn't cross his view in morality, he had always seemed to be quite understanding and respectful when it comes to sharing differences in thinking.
Despite the serious, cold and rational view people has of him, Zayne had shown to be quite witty towards people he is close with and has this type of humor to say the most unserious things with a straight face, at moments when people expect the least, seemingly to find joy in watching how others' would react.
Zayne has said to enjoy traveling, exercising, visiting different museums or parks, and just simply spending his free time on his own. He likes little animals, has quite a bit of a sweet tooth and had shown to be surprisingly creative when it comes to improvisation.
