ＨＥＸＡＧ⬣Ｎ 𝘪𝘴 𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘰𝘳 SKYLAR ZHANG
PERSONALITY
- Positive: creative, energetic, adventurous, confident, mood lifter
- Negative: loud, annoying, clumsy, sarcastic, reckless
Skylar is a fun-loving, loud and energetic person; the type of person that would go all out when trying to let loose. With her EDM music background it is easy to understand why she is like this. Especially while on stage, she is the main person that would be the person to hype up the audience till the whole venue is lit. No matter where was or what time of day it is; she could turn it in a party, it was like a gift. She is the person who would go on crazy adventures and takes (sometimes drag) others along with her. The energy and atmosphere that she felt when she had a chance to DJ at the different music festivals is something that she wants to recreate so others can experience. Another thing that she is good at is keeping people together; it's could either be her friends or her group she would make it so everyone feels connected. She does this in the group be getting the quieter members a chance to speak and by protecting her groupmates however she can. She is quite adventurous when it comes to trying out different concepts or other music styles.
But with the type of energy that she has, she could sometimes come off as being careless or even reckless. she falls over all the time, especially while on stage this is due to the energy that she's getting from the audience making her not mindful of where she takes her next step. her upbeat and energetic nature can also be a bad thing usually when the other members want some peace and quiet Skylar would be considered loud and annoying during these times. On the outside, she might seem like she doesn't give a about anything and with some stuff she might not. but with the stuff that she really cares about, like her worries and fears she unintentionally keeps it inside because she's scared that if it started to reflect her outer appearance as well as inside her then she might explode.
BACKGROUND
Skylar's parents lived in Xi'an, China it wasn't until 1992, three years before she was born her father got a job offer in the same company that he was already working in but in Amsterdam. He took it and moved with his wife to Amsterdam and 6 months after he was offered the job, he and his wife settled into their new home in Amsterdam. So Skylar was born on the 14th of August, 1996 in Amsterdam and was mostly raised by her mother while her father focused on working so the family can live comfortably. However, when she was 10 years old her mother died due to cancer. Her father was devastated because he realised that he was so focused on work that he didn't try to put aside time to spend with his wife and child. So from that day on, he tried his best to be a big part of Skylar's life. At the age of 13, she started taking dance lessons and what she learned it was mainly hip hop dance. But when the dance style called cutting shapes which is a form of shuffle started getting popular in Europe. Skylar started taking dance lessons to learn the dance techniques and after that, her dance teacher told her to use the dance technique to turn it into her own style.
Over the years Skylar developed an interest in house music and EDM; listening and creating music of her own. So in senior years of high school, she sent demos of her music and an application to music label spinnin' records. They were impressed with the music she created so she was accepted. While working in on finding her own unique style she met Martin Garrix; another aspiring young DJ who joined a year before her which she really connected with even though she found that both of their sounds of music were different. After training under spinnin' for a few months she met another young DJ named Isaac Williams. He was a nice and sweet guy and also became friends. So her, Martin and Isaac became close friends. So around two years and 6 months, Isaac and Skylar became a couple which Martin was really happy for them. But Isaac had darker intentions. In all honesty, he was dating Skylar because she was a talented music producer and he wanted to steal her work. So the two dated for not even a year before he took his plan into action and stole a third of Skylar's music that she worked on over the past 3 years. To top it all off he accused her of stealing music from him. Luckily it was kept within the walls of the record label since Skylar and Isaac were still underground DJs that haven't debut yet. But the higher-ups of Spinnin' Records hear this and they were both summoned to a board meeting with the higher-ups. The whole thing took hours and no matter how much Skylar defended herself it got to a point where they would rather listen to Isaac's lies rather than to her. The same thing happened to martin last year with the record label taking his music. So with a heavy heart, she tore up her contract and cussed at Isaac stating it's over as she walked out of the board room like the boss she is. Once she was out of the building she called martin and explained what happened. They met up and he comforts her. After that day she spent about two months at home not doing anything but cry or just wallow in sadness before realising that she needs to spend time away, like a change in scenery. She needed to be in a fresh start in a new place. With her father's help, she ended up moving to Seoul, South Korea. Which is a place that their family has history and also a place to start new. There she was sent to live with her aunt. So just a few days before she was supposed to leave Spinnin' records contacted her saying that one of the vocalists that she worked with exposed Isaac of stealing Skylar's music and his contract got terminated. They also told her that they are offering her got compensation for what she went through, giving her music back and a new contract. She rejected the contract and continued her plans for South Korea. She was able to find a job at a small cafe after two weeks of moving to Korea. After staying a few months in Seoul she started to feel more like herself again thanks to her aunt. She was really grateful that her aunt was there to listen to what she was going through and her suggestions on how to cope with the pain and sadness she was feeling. While settling into her new life in Korea she ended up getting a job at a small cafe just so she's distracting herself from her thoughts while earning some money. One day while she was out and about in Seoul she received a flyer for a survival show called HEXA⬣GON. At first, she was sceptical about it but as she read it she got more interested. When she got home researched about the show and the companies associated with it. Thinking it's something different that might get her out of this emotional ditch she's in she talked about it with her aunt and gave it a week to think about. Her aunt suggested that maybe becoming an idol would be a better path for her than becoming a DJ since she had all those years in dance lesson back in Amsterdam and she has some vocal experience. Thinking that if she makes it as an idol then it would be a whole new experience and it's something to do while she put her DJ career on hold. After thinking about it long and hard she took her chances and went to auditions where she showed her dance and vocal skills hoping for the best.

+Cutting Shapes shuffle dance. x
+Reading crowds and how to hype them up
+She can only play the One Punch Man theme song and Armin's theme song from Attack on Titan on the electric guitar. Ask her to play something else on the instrument and she would have no idea.
TRIVIA
+She has been to many EDM festivals different countries such as EDC in the US, Ultra music festival in the US, South Korea, Japan, Brazil and the ones around Europe. But her favourite is Tomorrowland in Belgium.
+She really cares about her fans. She finds that constructive criticism very important; not only from trainers and mentors but also from fans.
+She's the most comfortable person to cuddle out of all the trainees. Whether it be her hugging you in her chest or you are hugging her back she is so comfortable to hug. The other trainees found this out one time after a long training session. The trainees were just so tired so half left while the other half which included Skylar lay on the floor and took a nap in the training room since they couldn't be bothered getting up and go back to the dorms. The ones who ended up cuddling with Skylar seemed like they had the best sleep they ever had and were refreshed when they woke up.
+For Skylar, her’s main goal is to create music and atmosphere that the youth can enjoy. It wouldn’t matter if you were either popular, unpopular, a jock, a nerd you could be whoever you want to be when listening to Skylar’s music or seeing her perform either as an idol or as a DJ. If she ends up becoming an idol she would still continue to create monster dance tracks as a DJ/Producer but if she doesn't make it as an idol during HEXA⬣GON or things don't work out in the long run then she plans to return to Amsterdam, join another music label (after researching) and continue her career as a DJ
+Soon after she arrived in Korea she became interested in a music genre called future funk. It's so fascinating to her because not only does it make her want to get up and dance. But this particular style of music gives off a nostalgic retro vibe that seems to draw her in and makes her want to explore the genre even more. Eg. 1, 2, 3, 4 (A/N: I love this genre that I just had to include it in this character somewhere.)
+She cries every time she watches the music video "Shelter" by Porter Robinson. It doesn't matter how many times she's seen it. That music video will always make her cry.
+She has a whole bunch of unreleased tracks that she has created over the years which is considered as her life's work. A bit more then a third of it was stolen by Isaac but later on, was returned back to her ownership
