Behind the Scenes: Zoot & Ebony Award

Taking the Winter 2009 Tribe Awards & breaking 'em down to "Tribe" references so you can see what each award refers to, then the defining moment that resulted in a character receiving this award.

Zoot & Ebony Award

For one short season of "The Tribe," we were privileged to meet one of the show's most interesting characters: Zoot. Zoot was leader of the Locusts, a name that in time morphed into the Locos, which actually fit better if you think about it. Zoot's woman was Ebony. If you saw the 2 of them together, just thinking about the chaos they could cause was enough to freeze your blood. Zoot & Ebony were the true embodiment of power & chaos.

This term's "Zoot & Ebony Award" has new winners. Tristan has been a dark figure of mostly hidden chaos in Fort River for awhile now. His torture of Cecily (and anybody else who crossed his path) was truly enough to make you go ewww! Jet came out of nowhere--an exotic beauty with a dark past, tribe leader of the Vamps who don't exist anymore. Now Tristan is quickly turning her into a powerful force in the city, one strong enough to stand at his side.

Tristan & Jet, this one's all yours.

It doesn't get much better than this.
