003. BIOGRAPHY.
their father, santiago moreno, and their mother, valentina flores, were both internationally recognized instrumentalists. they loved both music and each other openly and intensely, and when quetzal was born, that same devotion was extended without hesitation to their only child. there was never doubt that they would be supported. there was also never doubt that they would be exceptional.
from early childhood, quetzal grew up inside studios and rehearsal rooms, gifted only the most expensive equipment and encouraged to follow in their parents' footsteps. but quetzal learned early how to perform not just musically, but socially as well; they learned how to be pleasing and well-liked enough to garner fans. nonetheless, they were always a more reserved child, preferring to make use of their creativity in settings that didn't feel overrun by their parents' fame.
somewhere in adolescence, they started experimenting quietly with identity in ways they were still learning to understand. clothing became the first outlet: toying with silhouettes depending on how they felt that day. later came changes to their pronouns, then gradual understanding that gender was something fluid and responsive for them. when they expressed the discovery to their parents, they were accepted with open arms, and quetzal was pulled back into the gut-wrenching need to oblige to all the things their parents asked of them.
in 2011, at the encouragement of their parents quetzal entered the fourth cycle of astronomical boys and girls, a survival style idol competition produced by kardinal entertainment. quetzal placed third and was selected alongside the top five contestants to form axial, kardinal supers' premier girl group. the fame was still overwhelming, but now they had four friends willing to live through it with them.
eleven years later, the girl group remains one of the most dominant forces in entertainment and public hero culture. their fanbase is massive and intensely loyal, but quetzal has never fully felt as if they're doing the right thing. while they are technically successful by every external metric, there has always been a quiet lack of fulfillment beneath the surface. the work now feels repetitive, and the expectation of constant visibility feels more suffocating than anything.
when kardinal began its pivot toward formalized hero work, it clarified the imbalance they had been living with for years. hero work felt real in a way the idol life never had. for the first time, they felt a sense of purpose that wasn't purely aesthetic or inherited. but axial cannot fully separate the two identities it was built on. it is still a girl group first, and quetzal, increasingly exhausted, is beginning to realize that what they want and what they were raised to do may not be the same thing.
004. WANTED.
other kardinal ent. folks! i would love to see friends, yes, but i'd also love to see other connections: rivals, people they're often collaborating with for pr reasons, the rest of the axial girls!
a childhood friend! quetzal grew up in the spotlight — famous parents, and all that — and was born and raised in nkc. i'd love for them to have at least one person they've known for a long time, whether they're also from a similar background or just happened to be someone they met during their earlier years. they could have drifted after quetzal was thrown into work, or could still be close now.
a mentor of sorts! see, they're well aware they're a musician and girl group member before all else, but kardinal's pivot into hero work is the best thing that's happened to them. i could see them seeking out another hero or even vigilante in secret to see whether they can immerse themselves further into that world.
someone who has no idea who they are! this might be the most refreshing person quetzal's ever been around. i love the idea of them pretending to be a normal person whenever they see this particular individual. perhaps, at this point, they've even gone so far as to try and conceal their life of fame whenever they're with them.
a dumb little crush! one-sided or otherwise, and i also think this could be adorable when combined with the above wc! quetzal's terribly inept when it comes to expressing their emotions, so they'll be a bit awkward (endearingly so) around this person.
a confidant! there are very few people they can open up to about their true feelings towards their career path. this person is one of them. their intentions can be pure, or they can be holding onto this information for their own personal gain in the long run.
