MEDICAL CHARTBASIC INFORMATION:Name: Zexion (Zeku, Zexy) Fideli / Ienzo Fideli / Shadow / Luxumia / JJ / Jamie
Age: 23
Birthday: August 31st
Gender: Male
Personality: Zexion is quiet and withdrawn. He spends his time working through puzzle books or completing mental challenges. Zexion is intelligent although this is often masked by his avoidance of interaction. He is sarcastic and witty and would rather give riddles and clues than answer anyone with a straight sentence. Zexion is secretive and gets very defensive if he thinks his privacy has been invaded; this includes someone entering his room, his personal space or even listening in to his conversations. He is very good at changing the subject when he does not wish to discuss something or is being called out about destructive behaviour. Zexion keeps a detailed journal which is kept securely locked; it details his thoughts and ideas no matter how dark. Some of these ideas are put into practice and others are ignored. Zexion's mind gets fixated on numbers often and sometimes it will appear that he is not focused or not listening to someone when he is actually fulfilling his metal rules in over to progress with the conversation/activity. He can become suddenly violent although usually for a reason such as being forced to take his medicines. His anger flashes up quickly and he will, and has, resort to any measure to avoid the activity. He has an extreme fear of fire. He does not like to talk about his past.
Likes: Puzzles, writing, language, numbers, order, his tape measure
Dislikes: Food, being restrained, medicines and drugs, Shadow, mirrors, physicals, fire
Ienzo; estimated age between six and nine based on conversations. Ienzo presents himself as a child although he maintains Zexion's level of intelligence. This results in interactions and conversations which switch between a seemingly normal, adult discussion and a barrage of childish mannerisms such as the repetition of the question 'why' or suddenly 'not understanding' a topic which was being discussed only moments earlier. Ienzo is much more social that Zexion, trusting people and wanting hold hands with the person show that his skills in this area are seriously under developed. Ienzo is often used as a coping mechanism for forced social contact, high pressure situations and dealing with sudden or unexpected physical contact. Although socially capable, Ienzo keeps his thoughts and feelings as secretive as Zexion. One of Ienzo's favourite hobbies is eating, he likes to store up candy or sweets and then have midnight snacks or tea parties; something which greatly distresses Zexion.
Likes: Talking, finger painting, eating sweets, playing tea party, his toy skunk Prince Pungent
Dislikes: Being sick, bedtime, medicine, bossy adults, people with cold hands
Shadow is the name Zexion gave to this mystery persona. He never displays himself to others, unlike Ienzo; Shadow is more of a 'voice inside the head' of Zexion. Often Zexion points out that Shadow was in charge of Zexion's misbehaviour and dark activities. Zexion is frequently seen or heard talking to himself, especially in a mirror, this is Shadow. Zexion tries to avoid talking about him in detail although he will mention the name. Zexion sometimes complains of headaches or is seen holding his head saying that Shadow is at play.
Appearance: Zexion is around 5'3 and extremely thin. His steel-blue hair covers one side of his face, hiding the scarring around his eye. Zexion has severe bruising constantly on his left shoulder and down his left upper arm. His body is kept smooth and hairless, eyebrows shaped perfectly. Zexion is careful to wash every day and clean his teeth properly keeping up good personal hygiene. Ienzo bites his nails which distresses Zexion as it messes up his appearance.
Zexion wears dark clothes. Usually converse or vans style shoes, black trousers and a long sleeved jumper. He never wears short sleeved tops and usually wears things that are purposely too big. He sticks to plain clothes, not really wanting to have brands or band names across his chest. Blues, blacks and purples dominate his wardrobe.
Background: Zexion and his twin Ienzo had a happy childhood, stable family two loving parents who worked hard and raised the boys well. At the age of eight there was an accident; after being told to stop running around the room, Zexion tripped on the living room rug and fell into the fire grate, he was pulled away quickly and only suffered burned and scarring to the right side of his face around his eye and temple. Unfortunately in the commotion the logs were knocked out of place and the fire spread, trapping Ienzo. He was rescued by the fire service but died the next day in hospital.
After this Zexion regressed, his development slowed and he suffered trauma at the loss of his twin. It was then that the imaginary friend started, conversations with himself in the mirror to replace his lost brother began. Zexion also became borderline paranoid and his obsession with following the 'rules' began. His parents were concerned about his pretending that his brother was there but they were nervous about getting help for this. By the time he was 13 Zexion had been diagnosed with severe OCD and ASR. He started therapy but was unwilling to co-operate.
By the age of 16 it was well established that Zexion was suffering some form of split personality issue to make up for the loss of his twin. The OCD and ASR had not improved and so drugs were prescribed. The drugs resulted in a period of extreme depression, believed to result from his young age, and he was taken off the drugs. During the next few years Zexion became more out of control and violent, killing animals and writing about them in his diary. One night at the age of 18, in a heated argument with his parents Zexion was accused of being the reason for Ienzo's death. His father made a comment that 'if they weren't twins then they [the parents] would have one brilliant child instead of one dead child and one fucked up one." In a fit of rage Zexion took a kitchen knife and stabbed them both to death. When asked about the incident Zexion stated that 'it was not him, it was Shadow." He was then assigned to a secure unit and his Acute Stress Response developed and worsened into Posttraumatic Stress Disorder.

Possible set-offs of disorder: Awkward social situations, unwanted physical contact.
Medical Disorder: Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
An anxiety disorder in which the subject suffers negative, intrusive thoughts that are appeased by rhythmic or repeated behaviour.
Zexion has rules in his head which must be followed. His routine for getting washed and dressed is precise and he finds numbers to be a particular downfall. Counting objects, actions, or just getting stuck counting in his head and not being able to stop. Washing his hands is a frequent one, also the desire to walk on the left of people. He also has to set volumes to particular numbers such as multiples or 5 or even numbers.
Possible set-offs of disorder: Breaking or interrupting a sequence or action, talking about non-symetry, pointing out patterns or numbers.
Medical Disorder: Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
A severe anxiety disorder in which the subject's ability ot cope with an event is overwhelmed.
Zexion developed Accute Stress Response after being burned an a fire and watching his twin brother die, it developed into PTSD after the murder of his parents. Zexion suffers frequent nightmares about these events and can occasionally have flashbacks. He still has an extreme phobia of fire from the first event. He suffers bursts of extreme anger and has an erratic sleep schedule.

Medical Disorder: Anorexia Nervosa coupled with Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD)

A disorder in which the subject is massively conserned with their physical appearence and is focused on, or convinced of, a flaw in their body.
Zexion measures himself every day and weighs himself whenever possible He keeps a detiled report of what, and when, he eats. He exercises regularly and although he dislikes vomiting he will purge his body occasionally after Ienzo has been on a candy spree. He has been hospitalised for this before which resuled in a feeding tube being sewn into place in his arm to keep him from ripping it out. By controlling his body he can escape from the frantic disorganisation of his mind. He is obsessed with numbers and the bruising on his left arm is caused by Zexion trying to make himself 'more symetrical' after he measures his body. He is also disgusted by the imperfections of his face and can cope with his a-symetica hair style because it hides his constant reminder of that day so long ago.
Possible set-offs of disorder: Constant problem. Exeserbated by consumption of food, especially when forced. People making comments about his body, conversations about attractiveness or body image, mirrors.
Luxumia: One of Zexion's alters. She is extremely promiscuous to the point of nymphomania. She comes out when Zexion is aroused or excited but his OCDs and issues prevent him from acting on it. She will attempt to bed anyone regardless of the risk and is unphased by someone's looks or gender.
JJ: One of Zexion's alters. Rude and homophobic JJ says what he is thinking without caring. He isn't phased by other people's feelings and he is known for being harsh and upsetting people. He does, however, care deeply for Jamie like a brother.
Jamie: One of Zexion's alters. Sweet and innocent Jamie is kind. He doesn't get out much and he is the only one that Shadow speaks through out loud. Low in confidence but large of heart Jamie has been beaten down by Shadow over the years but he still tries to be kind to others.
