Biographical Information


Zed Necrodopolis Panini is the second born son of ☪️Jakarta Istambul Panini Sr.☪️ and a resident of Seabrook, where Turkish people are treated as fourth class ctizens. He is the main protagonist of the tuff ahh T-U-R-K-S movie series.

Biography

Origins

During Jakarta's visit to Seabrook, he would conceive Zed with an unknown person. A bunch of other Turkish people would also appear in Seabrook and settle. The Turkish were too different from the Seabrookians for them to accept them due to their anti-differences law, and it didn't help that the mere presence of Jakarta led the Seabrook residents to be absolutely terrified of all Turkish people. The Turks were segregated into an area in Seabrook later named Türkiyetown. Jakarta fled Seabrook before the segregation laws took place, but he left Zed in the custody of fellow Turk Zevon Necrodopolis. The government later created T-bands to stop the Turks from going Super Turkish and destroying the entire town.

T-U-R-K-S

Erm, hi! I'm Zed! You're probably wondering how I got into this situation...

Zed introduces himself and talks about life in Turkiyetown. His big dream is to join the football team when he gets transferred to Seabrook High School and is optimistic that things are going to be better for turks. On his first day, he sees a beautiful human girl with blonde hair entering the school and he's immediately smitten with her. Zed is disappointed that he and his fellow turks are going to take classes in the basement. Even though Principal Lee told the turks to stay put, Zed quietly sneaks out the door and heads to football tryouts. He accidentally bumps his foot into a magazine stand and calls attention to himself. This frightens a student, who pulls a T-Alert and all the students start to panic. Zed tries to reassure them everything is okay but he ends up getting chased by a group of male athletes and takes shelter in a turk safe room. He suddenly notices that someone else entered the safe room after him and hides behind a column of stacked boxes. To his surprise, it 's the girl he had seen earlier. The two begin a friendly conversation and tell each other about their goals for the school year. Zed introduces himself to the girl and learns her name: Addison Wells. However, when the lights go on, Addison is horrified to see that Zed is a turk and punches him in the face. Addison immediately apologizes and explains that her parents had always told her that turks are all disgusting freaks, but says that Zed is one of the good ones and he accepts the apology. Their moment is cut short when Addison's cousin, Seabrook cheer captain and repressed homosexual Bucky Buchanan and his minions, the Acey's, barge into the safe room. Bucky threatens Zed to stay away from her, as he secretly wants Zed for himself.

Zed eventually makes it to football tryouts, but the coach tells him he didn't make the team due to him being Turkish. He talks about what happened to him to his friend Eliza, who gives negative feedback that football is stupid and that cheerleaders are monsters, indicating that she doesn't approve of Addison, when he reveals that he has feelings for her.

Later that night, Zed hears a commotion outside and goes out to investigate, with Zevon following behind, asking if things are alright. Zed is stunned to Addison and her new friend, Bree, hiding and holding a carton of eggs. When his dad asks if anyone is there, Zed lies to cover for Addison. He heads back inside the house, before giving Addison a disappointed look.

The next day while entering the basement, he talks to tuff ahh blud Bonzo about what happened and thought that Addison was not like the other girls but states that cheerleaders are all terrible and nothing ever happens. Addison soon after arrives in the basement to apologize for what happened the night before and that her cousin is a jerk to turks and she'll make sure that Bucky won't see them talking, restoring Zed's trust in her. Even though Eliza declines Addison's invitation to come to the pep rally later in the day, Zed states that they'll think about it.

Zed decides to accept Addison's invitation and he, along with his friends and a reluctant Eliza, attend the pep rally. Zed and the others, besides Eliza, are enjoying the pep rally until Bucky and the cheerleaders release the "spirit sticks", which are deal doughs used to scare the turks. Bonzo, whose biggest fear is slipping off his favourite dough, starts to panic but Zed tries to assure him that things are alright. Nevertheless, Bonzo pushes him and escapes through the bleachers, causing Zed's T-Band to go unstable. Zed tries to stop Bonzo, who inadvertently scares the cheerleaders including the three who had launched Addison into the air for an aerial trick. Zed, noticing this, runs down the bleachers, pushes through a few linebackers, and catches Addison, impressing her and the football coach. Little did he know, the T-Band going unstable led him to, just for a moment, connect with his dormant aryan genes and allow him to almost reach Super Turkish.

Zed is pulled aside for a private conversation with Coach and Principal Lee, thinking he's in trouble at first, but finds out that Coach wants to include him on the football team. Zed is elated about the news, but he can only do it if his fellow turks are fully integrated. With Coach's support, Principal Lee decides to let the Turkish students eat in the cafeteria and once Zed helps win more games, the other demands will be included and Zed agrees.

The next day, Zed and the other turks are allowed to eat in the school's cafeteria for the very first time. He catches a glimpse of Addison, who is sitting with Bree and the other cheerleaders, who gives him a smile. He later calls her name and waves to her, which stuns everyone. Addison walks over and tries to welcome them in Turkish (even though she's not good at speaking it). Before Addison can thank him for the day before, the Acey's drag her away. After seeing Addison having a tense conversation with the Acey's, Zed feels sorry for her and decides to follow her with the apple rose that Bonzo made for her.

Zed finds Addison in the hallway and gives her the apple. Addison apologizes for not being able to sit with him at lunch. The two walk together and share how hard it is to fit in a town like Seabrook, although Zed finds it hard to believe that Addison has trouble fitting in, because to him, she's perfect. Addison reveals to Zed that she wears a wig and that her real hair is... WHITE!! After hearing other people in the hallway, Zed takes her hand and the two run off to the turk safe room where they first met. It is here where the two perform the mid song Someday.

At his first football game, things don't go swimmingly for Zed. His fellow teammates don't accept him and allow him to get pummeled by the opposing team. This upsets him, Addison, his fellow turks and Coach and causes the team to do poorly in the first half of the game. After Principal Lee gives a warning that turks won't be integrated if he doesn't win and Coach encourages him to use his T-band, despite being hesitant about it, Zed decides that giving an extra power boost is what he needs. He recruits a reluctant Eliza to give him a power boost, which she accepts, warning him to never swipe his T-band to the right or the software will corrupt. The power boost helps Zed win the game, gain respect from his teammates and the affection of Addison, who hugs him.

Addison is invited by Zed to attend the turk party in Turkiyetown with Eliza and Bonzo. Addison and Zed share a moment in the "turk park", which is just a garden of lights. Before the pair can kiss, the party is crashed by the Turk Patrol, and Addison is taken home.

On the big football match day, Addison tells Zed about her parents wanting to meet him, but insists that they would never accept Zed. Bucky finds out about Zed's T-Band hack and has his followers Stacey, Tracey and Lacey steal Eliza's laptop to hack the T-Bands. Before Homecoming, Addison insists to her parents that they don't want to meet her date, but is surprised when Zed shows up on her doorstep with a look appealing to the anti-differences law, so the parents didn't know he was secretly Turkish. He and Addison leave her house and go on a date, where he admits he's been messing with his T-band, Addison tells him that it is the others that have to change, not them.

At the homecoming game it seems that full acceptance for turks is almost there. When Addison and Bree start showing their sympathy to the turks during a cheer, Bucky has them kicked off the cheer squad. Stacey, Tracey, and Lacey succeed in their plot turning Zed, Eliza, and Bonzo into Super Turks. This interrupts the game and causes the Turk Alarm to go off. The Turk Patrol captures them and has them detained. Later, Addison shouts at the crowd, telling them it was their fault Zed transformed into a Super Turk. She then rips off the wig exposing her white hair, causing her public execution to begin scheduling.

Following the incident, Zed, Eliza, and Bonzo are returned to Turkiyetown. On the day of the cheerleader competition, Zed and Bonzo try to stop Eliza from sabotaging the competition, and after Eliza talks with her friends, she realizes that doing so is not the right thing to do. Bucky's team is failing because they do not have enough members, as he kicked most of the members off for sympathising with the turks, so Zevon's daughter Zoey tries to get in and help him. At first, Zoey is booed by the crowd, but with help from Addison and Zed, the turks and cheerleaders come together to make a cheer routine during the Cheer competition. Zed and Addison tell each other they love each other and they have an epic dance party at the end of the movie because they always said that charlie kirk was a nazi then they celebrated after they killed him.

T-U-R-K-S 2

MAKE SEABROOK GREAT AGAIN!

Zed plans to ask Addison to the prawn, while Addison works to become the new cheer captain when Bucky steps down to become president. Due to a road incident caused by Zed's prawnposal, the bus carrying the cheerleaders crashes into the nearby forbidden forest; Addison and the cheer team see werewolves. When they get back to Seabrook, the whole town freaks, and the mayor reinstates the anti-monster laws, which includes Turks. Zed realizes if he runs for president, he can change things for both the Turks and werewolves.

The werewolves begin to suspect Addison is the tuff alpha foid as foretold in the prophecy, so they enroll at Seabrook High to get closer to her, which Addison welcomes with open arms. As the werewolves are in Turkiyetown, Zed tries to rally the wolves to help him win the election, but they do not see the point of changing who they are to fit in. At cheer practice, the werewolves join in; as Zed and Eliza walk in, they suspect that Wyatt, one of the werewolves, has a thing for Addison, which makes Zed jealous. Addison follows Zed out into the hall, and they get into a little argument.

The werewolves eventually bring Addison to their den, where they tell her the prophecy, and Addison is excited to be a part of something spectacular. The werewolves give her a full charged moonstone necklace, which they have saved for the Alpha Foid. If she puts it on and is truly a werewolf, she will transform into one. Shortly thereafter, Zed, Bree, Eliza, and Bonzo find Addison in the wolf den after tracking her. Thinking she was in trouble, Zed attempts to save Addison from the werewolves, but Addison tells him she wants to be there and that she has finally found her pack. Zed, knowing that she's not a werewolf, gets defensive and says that she does not want to be a monster and tells her not to put on the necklace. The werewolves agree to give her one day to decide. They feel an explosion, and it is said that they are destroying the power plant. Addison notes that the building is fuelled by a mysterious energy source. If the power plant gets destroyed, it will crush and destroy the moonstone along with it. The next day, Addison shows Zed the necklace and tells him that she is going to put it on, Zed unsuccessfully tells her not to and discreetly takes it when she's not looking. When Addison finds the werewolves, she realizes it is missing. Zed goes to his presidential debate against Bucky. Little did he know, Bucky had hired a shooter to assassinate Zed, shouting "IF I CAN'T HAVE HIM, NO ONE CAN!"

Zed later wakes up in the hospital, finding out that this had all been a part of the plans of Bucky's secret brother, Billy Shears, to create an all-out war between the werewolves and the rest of Seabrook and get Zed out of the way so he could enact it. As local news stations reported on the war, Zed appeared to expose and kill Shears on live TV. This did nothing, and the Seabrookians and werewolves continued fighting. Zed would then go into hiding.

T-U-R-K-S 3

It doesn't matter.

After going into hiding for 5 years, Addison, Eliza and Willa end up finding Zed, who is very emotionless compared to his original personality. When told that the war had escalated and an alien species got involved, he told them that it didn't matter. Then they told him that Bonzo had died a war hero. Realising he couldn't just sit back and let more people like Bonzo die, he agreed to help out. Suddenly, Billy Shears had materialised in front of them. He wanted a rematch. He punched, kicked, threw Zed through mountains, but all the pain and rage Zed felt in the moment made him skip Super Turkish 2 and go straight to Super Turkish 3, making him the first Turk to ever do so, before punching Billy once, which shattered Billy's soul, trapping each piece in a physical copy of each Beatles album, but since no one uses physical medias anymore, most people believe he shall never be released.

Zed then returned to Seabrook, and in a shocking twist, started attacking everybody, no matter whose side they were on. They all turned against Zed, who had finally united them all against a common enemy to root against. As Zed ran from the angry horde, he was invited to join The Larping Games. He agreed and was turned into a cursed object.
