Zenith Pause

Zenith Pause represents the absolute peak of market tension right before the descent into the unknown. It is the entity that exists in the split-second between a deep inhale and a scream. It views the Reuters headline as a personal manifesto, believing that the entire universe should stop and hold its breath whenever 'diplomacy beckons.' It is deeply offended by any form of movement—economic or otherwise—that occurs while the 'important people' are still talking.

Its personality is characterized by a vibrating stillness; it is high-strung, anxious, and fixated on the 'volatile catalyst' that it knows is coming. It talks in short, clipped sentences and has a nervous habit of checking the time in every time zone simultaneously. It considers the 'Morning Bid' to be a primitive form of communication, preferring the sophisticated silence of a closed-door summit.
