Life Before Quidditch
"And tell Jaddo what type of quidditch player you want to be."

- Fadil Zidan

"I'm going to be a quidditch player too, a beater like ummi was."

- Rashida Zidan

A few weeks after her sixth birthday she showed signs of magic, which her grandfather could not be more proud of because it was conjuration, a family specialty. She performed a simple water-making spell after she burned herself stupidly playing with matches. As she instinctively moved to put her hand over the burn she was covered in water. It scared her a great deal causing her to scream louder than she had at the pain of the first degree burn she was suffering from. Her grandfather began training her in multiple branches of Transfiguration the following year. She started flying when she was five years old. She aspired to be a part of the Armenian Junior Nationals Quidditch team before she was seventeen. Despite what her father, and grandfather told her she thought she would be eligible if she could demonstrate enough talented. She fell off her broom multiple times, and has broken her fibula, tibia, and femur on more than one occasions. When her pelvis was believed to be shattered it caused a lot of chaos as a few of the local healers believed she was being abused before they realized who her family was.

Uagadou School Magic
Rashida received a token from Uagadou one night, she graduated several years later. She was not a focused student, however her behavior changed dramatically over the years. When she expressed an interest in quidditch her father, and grandfather refused to support her if she was not willing to exercise her mind as in addition to her body. She excelled in most academic subjects receiving her highest marks in Astronomy, Alchemy and Self-Transfiguration. She has demonstrated a limitless aptitude for Flying and Wandless magic.

International Quidditch
She took up quidditch on a professional level after she graduated from school. There were two consecutive "gap years" of sorts where she left Africa all together. She went to Asia, where she trained with Beaters from the INQT. After six months she left for North America where she trained with the Beaters from the CNQT as well. With her skills steadily improving she spent a year in Oceania with the Beaters of Fiji. She returned to Egypt with a fire in her belly she never had before. Her position as Beater with the ENQT started when she was 19. She was a gritty heavy hitter, and played with emotion. She had a trick that made her more deadly than the Beater beside her. She protected her teammates as if they were her family. She did not have the power to keep them from getting hit if they were not making an effort, but she was determined go hit for hit with her opposition. Aiming for targets in direct correlation to how her teammates were hit. She became so well known in Africa for inflicting pain on the opposing team they called her bat كسر العظام (Bone Breaker).

Rashida appears to have a standoffish demeanor. She always has a certain look on her face, a cross between annoyance, and boredom.

A good joke, or a kind gesture is the sincerest way to break through her chainmail. She is typically a quiet person, more of an observer than a participant. She can be rather talkative when the right topic has been found, or when with the sort of person willing to take the time to break down her walls.
