In 2021, [[A.R.G.U.S.]] began taking control over the [[United States (Earth-1)|United States]] and instituted a dictatorship, including banning all religion and [[meta-humans]].

Sometime later, Zari was captured by [[A.R.G.U.S.]] during an attempt to take back her brother's amulet. As they were transporting her to a prison facility, the truck was stopped by [[Kuasa]], giving Zari time to escape before the former could kill her.

Zari made her way to a hideout to gather supplies, where she was found by the [[Legends]]. An A.R.G.U.S. drone found them, but Zari was able to hack it, allowing her to escape. She headed to a bar, where she was intercepted by [[Mick Rory]], attempting to befriend her. They were interrupted by [[Kuasa]], who was fought by [[Sara Lance]]. Rory quickly caused a diversion, allowing them to escape and return to the Legends' timeship, the ''[[Waverider]]''. Zari agreed to help them capture [[Kuasa]], only on the provision that they help her rescue her brother from an A.R.G.U.S. black site. They infiltrated the site and as all of the inmates escaped, triggered by [[Jefferson Jackson|Jax]], Zari went to retrieve an amulet. She admitted to the [[Legends]] that she'd played them, but only as the amulet had been her brother's. She went outside, using the amulet to fly away. Zari made her way to her family's camp, followed by [[Ray Palmer|the Atom]], but found it to be completely destroyed and them not there. Suddenly, Kuasa arrived. Working together, Ray and Zari were able to incapacitate Kuasa, allowing them to run away, but she stopped them in her tracks again. However, the Legends suddenly appeared, providing backup, forcing Kuasa to withdraw.<ref name="Zari" />

They returned Zari to her hideout, where Rory and [[Amaya Jiwe]] convinced her to join the Legends. Amaya explained that Zari's amulet was, in fact, a totem, similar to [[Anansi Totem|her own]]. She offered to teach Zari how to use her powers, which the latter accepted.<ref name="Zari" />

On the ''[[Waverider]]'', Ray tried to have a team-building routine in honor of Zari joining the group, which she thought was pointless. She then watched Ray disappear in front of her which was a result of him dying in 1988. When the team prepared to travel back to save him, she was excited to actually time travel. They went back to 1988 and she suffered some side effects from the trip as she began speaking French as Ray reappeared. Zari was amazed at how different the world was in 1988 as opposed to 2042. They found young Ray Palmer and followed him to his home where they learned that Ray had a small [[Dominators|Dominator]] in his bedroom. Zari was told all about the team's last encounter with the Dominators and they made a plan to sneak into Ray's room the following day to take the alien back.

The two found the Dominator named [[Gumball]], but found that young Ray was still home and was heading back to the room. Zari hid under Ray's bed while Ray shrunk down. She then watched as young Ray took the Dominator to watch ''Singin' in the Rain''. Suddenly, Ray's mother, [[Sandy Palmer]], arrived home after being informed of Ray skipping school. Zari became nervous when Sandy was close to discovering Gumball and asked for a distraction. When young Ray took Gumball and grown-up Ray into his bag to run, she went after him but he accused her of only wanting Gumball and ran away from her. She tried to go after him but she lost him in the woods. She then found him in a small tent that he made where he role-played being [[Galahad|Sir Galahad]]. She didn't want to play pretend with him but Ray told her that she had to think like a kid to get through to him and played along. Young Ray finally came out with Gumball but they were then ambushed by [[Smith]] and his agents.

Zari was rescued by Ray and the duo saved young Ray and Gumball. When escaping from the agents she used her totem to transport herself and little Ray in the sky like E.T. They eventually made it to the other Legends and the [[Dominator queen]], who was reunited with her child. Later on, Zari convinced little Ray to go trick-or-treating with her and the other Legends, though she was not a fan of the costume she was wearing. Later on, Zari bonded with adult Ray by giving his team-building exercise a go and the two watched ''Singin' in the Rain'' together while eating Halloween candy.<ref name="Phone">{{Ep|Phone Home}}</ref>

Zari went to eat breakfast with Sara, Amaya, and Stein, though she was surprised at their simple choices to eat when they could have any food they wanted. As she had gone through life on meager rations, Zari told them that from now on, she would "eat like a queen". She then asked if the Legends could take the ''Waverider'' to 2041, as that was the year that her brother had been killed so that she could try and save him from [[A.R.G.U.S.]]. However, Sara and Amaya protested that Zari's mission could create unforeseen consequences to the timeline. Before she could try to argue more, Nate called the team to the bridge. There, he explained how one of the outlying anachronisms was in 2042, where they had met Zari. He found another in Victorian [[London (Earth-1)|London]] that seemed to be a series of vampire attacks.

Zari was in her room cleaning when she was approached by Amaya. Amaya wanted to talk with her about her totem, but Zari was short with her about it. When Amaya pointed out that it was her brother's legacy, Zari angrily expressed how she didn't want to talk about her brother, especially when she and the other Legends were claiming that she couldn't save him even though she now had a chance to. This ignited her totem, which seemed to resonate with Amaya's. Amaya explained that the reason she hadn't returned to Zambesi was that the two of them were connected. The two then went to the bridge, where Zari met [[Rip Hunter]]. Rip Hunter explained to the Legends that he was on the hunt for an evil being by the name of [[Mallus]] and the vampire attacks were connected to him.

When Nate had been kidnapped by Sir [[Henry Stein]], Zari went with the team to infiltrate the [[Order of the Shrouded Compass]] and rescue him, as well as find the rogue vampire. She infiltrated the club with the team and she was asked to sit for a séance with "Madame [[Nora Darhk|Eleanor]]". Zari's disbelief was evident to Eleanor, who admitted that she too was a skeptic before realizing her power. "Elanor" then went into a trance and Zari heard her speak out in her brother's voice. Zari then heard her younger brother say that it was her fault that he died as she didn't protect him and had run away. Zari tearfully tried to plead to her brother but Amaya broke the séance up. Back at the ship, Zari confessed to Amaya that she did indeed run and left her brother to be killed by A.R.G.U.S. She also didn't want her totem anymore as it was a reminder that she should've died that day, not her brother.<ref name="Mack">{{Ep|Return of the Mack}}</ref>

During one of the Legends' missions, [[John Constantine]] and [[Charlie]] were in the jump ship, working on a secret side mission to save John's ex-boyfriend, [[Desmond]], and restore Charlie's shape-shifting powers, but Zari intercepted them and brought them back to the ''Waverider''. There, John told them about [[Neron]], a demon who had sent Desmond to hell and had been hunting John down ever since. Zari left to search for loopholes, but Charlie shape-shifted into John as the real John snuck off the ship. Zari dragged Charlie onto the jump ship and followed him to New Orleans, where he broke up with Desmond, driving the latter out of town. The two girls began quickly flying home to warn Sara of John's actions, but a temporal explosion hit the jump ship, knocking them both backward. When Charlie came to, she was excited to have her powers back, but soon realized that Zari had been turned into a cat.<ref name="Dolly">{{Ep|Hell No, Dolly!}}</ref>

Baffled by Zari the cat, Charlie decided to bring her back to the ''Waverider'', but not before she dropped herself off at a casino in [[Las Vegas]] 1962. When Charlie met [[Custodians of the Chronology]] and followed them to the ''Waverider'', she heard Zari in the library and wondered why she was a cat, to which Gideon, who had a holographic full-body human model, explained that the Custodians became homicidal due their disastrous encounter at [[Woodstock]] and that the Fairy Godmother, who was also presumably killed, turned Zari into a cat. After the Custodians tried to kill her, Charlie escaped to the jumpship with Zari, flying to the [[Time Bureau headquarters]] in 2018.

Charlie then located John there and showed Zari to him, who transmogrified her back into human form, but ultimately returned her back to a cat, as she threatened to set the timeline back to its original course. Trying to return to the jumpship, they had an encounter with Mona, Ava, and again with Custodians of the Chronology, but the three Legends managed to flee, setting a course back to Woodstock 1969 and preventing Sara's death by shooting the unicorn from the jumpship.

Unfortunately, it still didn't solve Zari's cat predicament, so they headed back to the Time Bureau, only for Charlie to see new plaques of commemoration for Nate, Ray, and Mick, who were killed in one of their missions, and meet the new version of the team, the [[Sirens of Space-Time]], who told her of the three's tragic demise by the hands of the Fairy Godmother. Charlie briefed John and Zari on the situation, before the Sirens found her out, but successfully escaped and set a course back to Salem 1692, with John and Zari. After Charlie and John saved Nate, Ray, and Mick from the Fairy Godmother, they returned to the jumpship and found Zari, who was happy not to be a cat anymore until the others helped her realize that she had become a talking puppet.

Searching for an explanation, John was told by the [[Puppets of Tomorrow]] that Mick made a bond with the Fairy Godmother, turning the Legends into puppets and becoming his new partner in crime, information that he then shared with Zari and Charlie. Charlie and John continued on to fix the mistakes in the timeline, which returned Zari to her human form until there were no more commemorative plaques of the team in the Time Bureau headquarters. Zari and John were just learning about it from Charlie when John suddenly collapsed due to the number of timelines he was currently experiencing. Zari was listening while Charlie tried to persuade John to make the compromised timeline work, but he realized that nothing they do will be in their favor, and told Charlie to have hope in her powers as he did with saving Desmond. When Charlie disagreed and tried to fight them, Zari used her air totem to knock her out and fled with John.

Charlie, eventually realizing that she was what the Legends needed to be peaceful to the fugitives, infiltrated the ''Waverider'' and distracted a still-homicidal Sara as John did his part in New Orleans. Zari was waiting on the jumpship when a time wave, caused by the past John and Desmond's restored love, reverted the timeline to its original state. Charlie, Zari, and John then returned to the ''Waverider'' and rejoiced as time was finally and truly fixed. The two girls then left John to tell Sara their time-traveling tale. Once they were in private, Charlie apologized to Zari for stuffing her in a backpack but also, more importantly, for getting off on the wrong foot. Charlie explained that she kept coming back to Amaya's form not because of her attractiveness, as Zari pointed out, but because it was the form she had when she joined the Legends, the first-ever team that held a special place in her heart. Zari forgave Charlie, telling her that destroying history for personal gain had happened to almost everyone on the team, including herself. The two reconciled, and Charlie teased Zari about finding Amaya, hence her, attractive.<ref>{{Ep|Legends of To-Meow-Meow}}</ref>

  +
Now as a separate individual, Zari was a part of the Legends, like her other-self. The team separated into two groups; Zari went with [[Ava Sharpe]], Nate, [[Mick Rory]], [[Mona Wu]], and [[Gary Green]] to find the ''[[Waverider (Earth-Prime)|Waverider]]''. After they found the ship in the garbage dump, they discovered that [[Gideon (Waverider)|Gideon]] was not onboard, making starting the ship difficult. So Zari used her engineering skills to make Nate, in his steel form, the conductor needed. The other half of the team found themselves in trouble in battle with [[Atropos]], causing Zari and her group to quickly locate the other group with the ''Waverider''. They reached the other group right as the [[Loom of Fate]] exploded. Having difficulty to the point of possibly crashing, Ava was ordered by [[Sara Lance]] to time-jump the ship to whenever and wherever they could, which was four months into the future.
  +

While working to repair the ship without Gideon, Behrad became her partner; she was delighted to be reunited with her brother, for everything she had ever done was for his benefit. However, she noticed that he was having stress; he confided that he had a vision, as if it were a memory, of saving her from [[A.R.G.U.S.]] agents trying to kill her. Zari revealed that it was a memory and that he was regaining his memories from her timeline.
  +
  +
Later, the Legends found Gideon; [[Lachesis]] was using the A.I. to work the [[Fatewatch]], a product that everyone was wearing that told them what to do, keeping them mentally and emotionally addicted. Both versions of Zari were assigned to disable the A.I. While Zari began using her hacking skills to deactivate Gideon, Tarazi chose to grab the cord and unplugged Gideon.

With the Fates defeated, Zari celebrated by spending the night with Nate. The next morning, she was teased by Tarazi and Behrad, but, as the three were hanging out, Behrad started to bleed profusely. Zari realized her presence was causing a temporal disturbance with two timelines, one where Behrad is dead and one where he isn't, fighting for control of his life.

For the DC's Legends of Tomorrowepisodes, see "Zari" and "Zari, Not Zari".
For her alternate timeline self, see Zari Tarazi.


"People always fear what they don't understand, and that fear turns them into monsters. But we can't let it turn us into monsters, too. We have to be better than them."
—Zari Tomaz[src]

Zari Adrianna Tomaz[1] (born c. 2009/2010),[2] also known as Z to her friends, Khaahar to her brother, and Zari 1.0 in the current timeline[3], is a computer hacker, rogue time traveler, member of the Legends, and wielder of the Air Totem which is one of the Six Lost Totems of Zambesi. She was an anti-government hacker who fought against the organization A.R.G.U.S. in the year 2042 alongside her brother, Behrad, until he was killed. When Zari first encountered the Legends, she tricked them into helping her retrieve Behrad's totem back from an A.R.G.U.S. black site. Zari eventually apologized and agreed to join the Legends as a full-time member and later developed a relationship with teammate Nate Heywood.

The creation of Heyworld caused the Anti-Meta-human Act of 2021 to never pass, which changed Zari's past. She was unaffected by the changes to the timeline until she left the temporal zone, sacrificing her time and memories with the Legends, in order to help save Nate's life.[2]

Eventually, Zari was able to come back after the creation of "Loomworld", after she took over the body of her alternate timeline self. Charlie later ripped Zari's life thread in half, giving a physical body to both versions of Zari.[3] However, in an effort to keep Behrad from dying again, she decided to return to the Air Totem.[4]

Biography

Original timeline

Early life

"Zari, Zari, why your clothes so sorry?!"
—Various kids teasing Zari[src]
Zari with her family

Zari and her family before her brother's death.

Zari Tomaz was born around 2009 or 2010[2] to Nasreen Tomaz and an unnamed man. She grew up in a Muslim family and lived in Washington, D.C..[5]

Young Zari and her mother

Young Zari and her mother.

When Zari was young, she refused to participate in the fasting of Ramadan, despite her mother's efforts. Nonetheless, Zari was taught by Nasreen how to cook Iftar and grew to understand the importance of family whilst celebrating Ramadan.[6] In 2018, Zari was taken out to a park by her mother, where they played together on the swing set.[5]

In early 2020, Zari and her family moved to Seattle, Washington, shortly after the birth of her younger brother, Behrad, to whom she was very close.[7] Zari disliked other children because they would tease her.[2]

In 2021, A.R.G.U.S. began taking control over the United States and instituted a dictatorship, including banning all religion and meta-humans. As a result, Zari and her family were persecuted for practicing Islam. Together with Behrad, Zari became part of the resistance in adulthood, fighting against A.R.G.U.S.'s control of her home.[7]

Working with the Legends

One night in 2042, A.R.G.U.S. raided Zari's family's home, killing Behrad and confiscating his amulet. Zari and her parents were forced to flee and began living in a remote camp.

Sometime later, Zari was captured by A.R.G.U.S. during an attempt to take back her brother's amulet. As they were transporting her to a prison facility, the truck was stopped by Kuasa, giving Zari time to escape before the former could kill her.

Zari made her way to a hideout to gather supplies, where she was found by the Legends. An A.R.G.U.S. drone found them, but Zari was able to hack it, allowing her to escape. She headed to a bar, where she was intercepted by Mick Rory, attempting to befriend her. They were interrupted by Kuasa, who was fought by Sara Lance. Rory quickly caused a diversion, allowing them to escape and return to the Legends' timeship, the Waverider. Zari agreed to help them capture Kuasa, only on the provision that they help her rescue her brother from an A.R.G.U.S. black site. They infiltrated the site and as all of the inmates escaped, triggered by Jax, Zari went to retrieve an amulet. She admitted to the Legends that she'd played them, but only as the amulet had been her brother's. She went outside, using the amulet to fly away. Zari made her way to her family's camp, followed by the Atom, but found it to be completely destroyed and them not there. Suddenly, Kuasa arrived. Working together, Ray and Zari were able to incapacitate Kuasa, allowing them to run away, but she stopped them in her tracks again. However, the Legends suddenly appeared, providing backup, forcing Kuasa to withdraw.[7]

Joining the Legends

They returned Zari to her hideout, where Rory and Amaya Jiwe convinced her to join the Legends. Amaya explained that Zari's amulet was, in fact, a totem, similar to her own. She offered to teach Zari how to use her powers, which the latter accepted.[7]

On the Waverider, Ray tried to have a team-building routine in honor of Zari joining the group, which she thought was pointless. She then watched Ray disappear in front of her which was a result of him dying in 1988. When the team prepared to travel back to save him, she was excited to actually time travel. They went back to 1988 and she suffered some side effects from the trip as she began speaking French as Ray reappeared. Zari was amazed at how different the world was in 1988 as opposed to 2042. They found young Ray Palmer and followed him to his home where they learned that Ray had a small Dominator in his bedroom. Zari was told all about the team's last encounter with the Dominators and they made a plan to sneak into Ray's room the following day to take the alien back.

The two found the Dominator named Gumball, but found that young Ray was still home and was heading back to the room. Zari hid under Ray's bed while Ray shrunk down. She then watched as young Ray took the Dominator to watch Singin' in the Rain. Suddenly, Ray's mother, Sandy Palmer, arrived home after being informed of Ray skipping school. Zari became nervous when Sandy was close to discovering Gumball and asked for a distraction. When young Ray took Gumball and grown-up Ray into his bag to run, she went after him but he accused her of only wanting Gumball and ran away from her. She tried to go after him but she lost him in the woods. She then found him in a small tent that he made where he role-played being Sir Galahad. She didn't want to play pretend with him but Ray told her that she had to think like a kid to get through to him and played along. Young Ray finally came out with Gumball but they were then ambushed by Smith and his agents.

Zari, young Ray, and Atom fly away

Zari, young Ray, and older Ray fly away.

Zari was rescued by Ray and the duo saved young Ray and Gumball. When escaping from the agents she used her totem to transport herself and little Ray in the sky. They eventually made it to the other Legends and the Dominator queen, who was reunited with her child. Later on, Zari convinced little Ray to go trick-or-treating with her and the other Legends, though she was not a fan of the costume she was wearing. Later on, Zari bonded with adult Ray by giving his team-building exercise a go and the two watched Singin' in the Rain together while eating Halloween candy.[8]

Zari Tomaz in a costume

Zari in her first costume.

Zari went to eat breakfast with Sara, Amaya, and Martin Stein, though she was surprised at their simple choices to eat when they could have any food they wanted. As she had gone through life on meager rations, Zari told them that from now on, she would "eat like a queen". She then asked if the Legends could take the Waverider to 2041, as that was the year that her brother had been killed so that she could try and save him from A.R.G.U.S.. However, Sara and Amaya protested that Zari's mission could create unforeseen consequences to the timeline. Before she could try to argue more, Nate Heywood called the team to the bridge. There, he explained how one of the outlying anachronisms was in 2042, where they had met Zari. He found another in Victorian London that seemed to be a series of vampire attacks.

Zari was in her room cleaning when she was approached by Amaya. Amaya wanted to talk with her about her totem, but Zari was short with her about it. When Amaya pointed out that it was her brother's legacy, Zari angrily expressed how she didn't want to talk about her brother, especially when she and the other Legends were claiming that she couldn't save him even though she now had a chance to. This ignited her totem, which seemed to resonate with Amaya's. Amaya explained that the reason she hadn't returned to Zambesi was that the two of them were connected. The two then went to the bridge, where Zari met Rip Hunter. Rip Hunter explained to the Legends that he was on the hunt for an evil being by the name of Mallus and the vampire attacks were connected to him.

When Nate had been kidnapped by Sir Henry Stein, Zari went with the team to infiltrate the Order of the Shrouded Compass and rescue him, as well as find the rogue vampire. She infiltrated the club with the team and she was asked to sit for a séance with "Madame Eleanor". Zari's disbelief was evident to Eleanor, who admitted that she too was a skeptic before realizing her power. "Elanor" then went into a trance and Zari heard her speak out in her brother's voice. Zari then heard her younger brother say that it was her fault that he died as she didn't protect him and had run away. Zari tearfully tried to plead to her brother but Amaya broke the séance up. Back at the ship, Zari confessed to Amaya that she did indeed run and left her brother to be killed by A.R.G.U.S. She also didn't want her totem anymore as it was a reminder that she should've died that day, not her brother.[9]

Zari Tomaz as a cat

Zari wakes up as a cat in the destroyed timeline.

During one of the Legends' missions, John Constantine and Charlie were in the jump ship, working on a secret side mission to save John's ex-boyfriend, Desmond, and restore Charlie's shape-shifting powers, but Zari intercepted them and brought them back to the Waverider. There, John told them about Neron, a demon who had sent Desmond to hell and had been hunting John down ever since. Zari left to search for loopholes, but Charlie shape-shifted into John as the real John snuck off the ship. Zari dragged Charlie onto the jump ship and followed him to New Orleans, where he broke up with Desmond, driving the latter out of town. The two girls began quickly flying home to warn Sara of John's actions, but a temporal explosion hit the jump ship, knocking them both backward. When Charlie came to, she was excited to have her powers back, but soon realized that Zari had been turned into a cat.[12]

Baffled by Zari the cat, Charlie decided to bring her back to the Waverider, but not before she dropped herself off at a casino in Las Vegas 1962. When Charlie met Custodians of the Chronology and followed them to the Waverider, she heard Zari in the library and wondered why she was a cat, to which Gideon, who had a holographic full-body human model, explained that the Custodians became homicidal due their disastrous encounter at Woodstock and that the Fairy Godmother, who was also presumably killed, turned Zari into a cat. After the Custodians tried to kill her, Charlie escaped to the jump ship with Zari, flying to the Time Bureau headquarters in 2018.

Charlie then located John there and showed Zari to him, who transmogrified her back into human form, but ultimately returned her back to a cat, as she threatened to set the timeline back to its original course. Trying to return to the jump ship, they had an encounter with Mona Wu, Ava Sharpe, and the Custodians of the Chronology, but the three Legends managed to flee, setting a course back to Woodstock 1969 and preventing Sara's death by shooting the unicorn from the jump ship.

Unfortunately, it still didn't solve Zari's cat predicament, so they headed back to the Time Bureau, only for Charlie to see new plaques of commemoration for Nate, Ray, and Mick, who were killed in one of their missions, and meet the new version of the team, the Sirens of Space-Time, who told her of the three's tragic demise by the hands of the Fairy Godmother. Charlie briefed John and Zari on the situation, before the Sirens found her out, but successfully escaped and set a course back to Salem 1692, with John and Zari. After Charlie and John saved Nate, Ray, and Mick from the Fairy Godmother, they returned to the jump ship and found Zari, who was happy not to be a cat anymore until the others helped her realize that she had become a talking puppet.

Zari Tomaz as a puppet

Searching for an explanation, John was told by the Puppets of Tomorrow that Mick made a bond with the Fairy Godmother, turning the Legends into puppets and becoming his new partner in crime, information that he then shared with Zari and Charlie. Charlie and John continued on to fix the mistakes in the timeline, which returned Zari to her human form until there were no more commemorative plaques of the team in the Time Bureau headquarters. Zari and John were just learning about it from Charlie when John suddenly collapsed due to the number of timelines that he was currently experiencing. Zari was listening while Charlie tried to persuade John to make the compromised timeline work, but he realized that nothing they do will be in their favor, and told Charlie to have hope in her powers as he did with saving Desmond. When Charlie disagreed and tried to fight them, Zari used her air totem to knock her out and fled with John.

Charlie reconciling with Zari

Zari reconciles with Charlie as the latter teases her.

Charlie, eventually realizing that she was what the Legends needed to be peaceful to the fugitives, infiltrated the Waverider and distracted a still-homicidal Sara as John did his part in New Orleans. Zari was waiting on the jump ship when a time wave, caused by the past John and Desmond's restored love, reverted the timeline to its original state. Charlie, Zari, and John then returned to the Waverider and rejoiced as time was finally and truly fixed. The two girls then left John to tell Sara their time-traveling tale. Once they were in private, Charlie apologized to Zari for stuffing her in a backpack but also, more importantly, for getting off on the wrong foot. Charlie explained that she kept coming back to Amaya's form not because of her attractiveness, as Zari pointed out, but because it was the form she had when she joined the Legends, the first-ever team that held a special place in her heart. Zari forgave Charlie, telling her that destroying history for personal gain had happened to almost everyone on the team, including herself. The two reconciled, and Charlie teased Zari about finding Amaya, hence her, attractive.[13]

Fixing the timeline

"Nate...if you're seeing this, we altered my future at Heyworld. I don't know where I'll be or who I'll be, but I know that I love you. Find me."
—Zari's message[src]
Nate and Zari say goodbye

Zari and Nate say goodbye.

After the Legends drastically changed the timeline due to the creation of and the events that transpired in Heyworld, Zari was replaced by her brother, Behrad, as the owner of the Air Totem and a member of the Legends.[2] However, before being corrected by the timeline, she filmed a fail-safe video that would play for Nate if she ever disappeared, in which she asked him to find her.[14] Even though this version of Zari was erased from existence, she was placed inside the Air Totem like all of her ancestors who had previously wielded it.[15]

Current timeline

Loomworld

Zari, Nate, and Behrad break the fourth wall

Zari in the body of Zari Tarazi.

Zari was able to escape the World between worlds within the Air Totem and took over the body of her alternate timeline self. She then was able to quickly deduce, when Nate Heywood did not recognize her and when she heard what sounded like a laugh track, that the Legends lost their battle with the Fates and that they were now trapped on a television show. The air totem was drawn to her and she used it to break down a door which revealed a hidden doorway that allowed her, Nate, and Behrad Tarazi to enter the television show that starred John Constantine, Astra Logue, and Natalie Logue. Eventually, Zari went through each show of Clotho Productions, gathering the Legends until they were forced to return to their respective shows.

In a bid to bribe Behrad to stay on his television show, Charlie ripped Zari's life thread in half, giving a physical body to both versions of Zari; Behrad then questioned if he now had two sisters.[3]

Now as a separate individual, Zari was a part of the Legends, like her other-self. The team separated into two groups; Zari went with Ava Sharpe, Nate, Mick Rory, Mona Wu, and Gary Green to find the Waverider. After they found the ship in the garbage dump, they discovered that Gideon was not onboard, making starting the ship difficult. So Zari used her engineering skills to make Nate, in his steel form, the conductor needed. The other half of the team found themselves in trouble in battle with Atropos, causing Zari and her group to quickly locate the other group with the Waverider. They reached the other group right as the Loom of Fate exploded. Having difficulty to the point of possibly crashing, Ava was ordered by Sara Lance to time-jump the ship to whenever and wherever they could, which was four months into the future.

While working to repair the ship without Gideon, Behrad became her partner; she was delighted to be reunited with her brother, for everything she had ever done was for his benefit. However, she noticed that he was having stress; he confided that he had a vision, as if it were a memory, of saving her from A.R.G.U.S. agents trying to kill her. Zari revealed that it was a memory and that he was regaining his memories from her timeline.

Later, the Legends found Gideon; Lachesis was using the A.I. to work the Fatewatch, a product that everyone was wearing that told them what to do, keeping them mentally and emotionally addicted. Both versions of Zari were assigned to disable the A.I. While Zari began using her hacking skills to deactivate Gideon, Tarazi chose to grab the cord and unplugged Gideon.

With the Fates defeated, Zari celebrated by spending the night with Nate. The next morning, she was teased by Tarazi and Behrad, but, as the three were hanging out, Behrad started to bleed profusely. Zari realized her presence was causing a temporal disturbance with two timelines, one where Behrad is dead and one where he isn't, fighting for control of his life.

After an emotional meeting with the Legends, Zari chose to save her brother and returned to the World between worlds within the Air Totem.[4]

Personality

"Hey, I know what it's like to lose the people you love in a senseless war. It makes you desperate, but... if you really want peace, it starts with you."
—Zari Tomaz to Anh Ly[src]

Haunted by the loss of her brother, Behrad Tomaz, and hardened from years of growing up in a dystopian future where she and other individuals with powers were hunted, Zari Tomaz generally presents herself as a cynical and gruff survivor who prefers to keep other people at arm's length; she was initially unenthusiastic at the prospect of joining the Legends due to not feeling like any sort of team player. Zari tends to resort to sarcasm or blunt honesty as a means of communicating feelings, a quality she shares with Mick Rory.

Zari has a very reserved personality, never wanting to show vulnerability; she tends to bottle up her difficult emotions of sadness and regret, likely because that's what she's done/had to do her entire life. Similarly, Zari seems to have slight anger management issues that cause her to do selfish acts, regardless of their effect on the timeline. However, she opened up about this to Sara Lance, who understood and promised to help her express emotions in a healthy way.[16]

However, Zari's disposition is not entirely sour; besides her dry and teasing sense of humor, she is proven to have some talent in video games and enjoys playing them in her spare time. More noteworthy, Zari is capable of empathy and compassion as the situation warranted, shown as when she connected with Ray Palmer's child-self and actually did so more successfully than Ray himself.[8] Her display of similar empathy and kindness to Prudence Hawthorne and a young Nora Darhk would seem to suggest that she has a general soft spot for children.[16][17] Zari was also just as devastated emotionally by the death of Martin Stein as all of her teammates were. Upon the news of his sacrifice, she sat with Ray, Nate Heywood, and Amaya Jiwe as they mourned and even attended his funeral.[10]

Zari has also shown romantic and even motherly traits since joining the Legends. After faking a relationship with Nate for the latter's parents,[18] they began to experience real feelings for each other. Zari was initially afraid to accept these feelings, allowing Sunjay to easily seduce her, but she came around with the help of Mona Wu[19] and was the first to make a move towards a real relationship[20] and confess her feelings to Nate.[21] After their first-date mission, Zari and Nate acquired the egg of a dragon, whom they chose to care for themselves. They have since given it a name, incubated it, and taken turns holding the egg to provide skin-to-skin contact.[22] All of this indicates that despite Zari's outer image of hardened survival instincts and practiced cynicism, there is a kind, gentle side to her as well.

Zari has great pride in her Muslim roots, as it is the only thing that she believes still keeps her connected to her family. Throughout her time-traveling adventures with the Legends, Zari honored her traditions by celebrating Ramadan, even though the hunger was making her incredibly irritable.[6]
