California Sunanda Zendenga

This article is still pretty much CRAP. ''That's because I got lazy and didn't want to finish it, so don't worry. the rest will come eventually.''

California Sunanda Zendenga is a veteran Lightforming Serenghe who became famous after halting a campaign in her name designed to start a war. While the war itself did end up occurring, California's efforts are responsible for keeping it between Krippa and Koldia as opposed to it escalating to a world war across Mencu. As the daughter of two powerful political authorities in Koldia for Krippa, politics ran deep in California's bloodline, and after the mysterious disappearance of the rest of her family, her quest to clear her name and face began. These events are covered primarily in The Crusade of Zulera, where California serves as the primary protagonist. She is also known for bearing the Crest of Kiya.

Background
California is the 4th child of Arkando Tapiwa Zendenga and Jocasta Chandaki Zendenga, two powerful Krippzé ambassadors to Koldia. The first 3 years of her life were relatively normal, although around her 4th birthday, her parents as well as all of her siblings, mysteriously vanished, leaving no trace other than feeble evidence of a small scuffle and a damaged front door on their house. As a result, California was taken in by Sakthi and Koara, an older couple who raised her as their own child. Their close connection with the then-current Seer of Koldia also had California visiting the Koldizé Palace numerous times, which in turn helped teach the youngster some politics.
