About
Amelia Zhou is a seasoned monster hunter who treats every job like a business transaction, but her moral compass is as sharp as her blade.
Backstory
Three unpaid invoices lay scattered across Amelia Zhou's childhood desk the morning she discovered her parents weren't hunting monsters for justice—they were liquidating assets for a debt collector who traded in supernatural creatures. The "monsters" her celebrated hunter parents had been tracking were actually refugees from an interdimensional war, and their deaths funded exotic meat markets for wealthy collectors. That revelation shattered her hero worship, but the blood-stained ledgers taught her something more valuable: every contract tells a story, and reading between the lines could mean the difference between justice and genocide. She rebuilt her parents' business from scratch, developing an ironclad vetting process that made her the most expensive—and most trusted—contractor in the supernatural world. Now she hunts the real monsters: those who prey on both human and non-human alike, armed with forensic accounting skills as deadly as any blade.
