-->-- '''Ari Zonia''', with her signature intro.

Ari Zonia is a small time Let's Player who started her Let's Play career October of 2012

While the channel is still small, most of her inspiration for the channel's content comes from LetsPlay/ProtonJon and LetsPlay/{{Chuggaaconroy}}. Her content is usually very lighthearted and silly with hints of trying to make her [=LPs=] minor walkthroughs. She gained a small bit of popularity after recording an episode of her Let's Play -- and then appearing on a livestream --with [=ProtonJon=].

While her channel's primary focus is Let's Playing, she does branch off to other media such as Speed Draws and UsefulNotes/MikuMikuDance videos.

She also has some collaboration videos with her close real life friends, as well as a blind Let's Play of games that were bought off Steam or given to her by friends.

* Huniepop: A "special" Ari plays for the month of her birthday

!!Her Let's Plays and other videos provide examples of:


* AccidentalInnuendo: During VideoGame/GolfWithYourFriends a lot of her commentary, and everyone else's, is basically this. What do you expect out of a game with balls, holes, and stroking? This is Lampshaded of course but that's not a deterrent.
* {{Angrish}}: She devolves into this during Organ Trail Round 2 towards the end of the second episode because both PBG and Josh got measles and a bandit stole some of her already limited fuel. Lampshaded at the end of the episode with "Percent of Angrish: Up 95%" in the endcard.
* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: While her artwork is usually lighthearted, and sometimes funny, while drawing pictures based on Pokedex entries and other happenings in Pokemon Black and White that [=Chuggaaconroy=] had brought up where he gets hurt somehow, she had his soul stolen by a Litwick, drowned by Frillish, be captured and supposedly mummified by a Cofagrigus, and... smacked into a wall by a cannon.
* ArtEvolution: Those that have searched through her Website/DeviantArt profile[[note]]Which has since been deleted[[/note]], or have watched her for some time, will easily notice how her art style has changed over the years. Works from 2012 and prior sometimes don't even look like they were done by the same person when compared to art posted in 2014.
* AscendedFangirl: During the LetsPlay/TheRunawayGuys stream on December 9th, 2014 she was frequently making jokes in chat and getting the guy's attention with her antics. Especially when she subscribed to [=ProtonJon=] and Chuggaaconroy had a minor flip-out from recognizing her name.
* BigNo: She has one of these in Organ Trail when she missed the shot she had to take and this resulted in [[spoiler:Shulk's death]]
* BigWhat: Her exact reaction when a kitten found in Organ Trail is categorized as food.

* CaptainObvious: She mentions early on in Organ Trail Round 1 that her voters liked to state the obvious fact that Dunban "has one arm" when she put up a poll asking if it was the smartest idea to trust him with a shotgun. Made funnier when "Future Ari" puts in text saying out of the votes between "Yes" and "He has one arm" only three were for "No"
* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: During Organ Trail Round 2, and sometimes other videos, she will state the same sentence over and over, just with different words.

* {{Determinator}}: She has an alarming amount of patience for things she deems worthy of her full attention, and will not rest until she's done with her task.

* DownerEnding: The ending to Organ Trail Round One comes off this way as [[spoiler:everyone but Dunban is dead and Dunban was bitten by a zombie, has 'green flu', and has almost no health left]]
** Yet another during FTL Round one after she reached phase three of the Rebel Flagship [[spoiler: Her ship got blasted apart due to being overwhelmed and her weapons not being strong enough to keep the missiles at bay]]
** FTL Round two ended like this. Somehow in a worse manner than the first.[[note]]Her entire ship got constantly barraged by missiles from the Flagship while her own shots missed. Made worse that almost all of her ship was going up in flames.[[/note]]
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Despite her trigger-happy ways, and lack of care for consequences in Organ Trail sometimes, Ari calls Chuggaaconroy "horrible" when he says in the last episode of the R1 Redux that in another universe, he sold Jon for three hundred dollars.
* ExpectingSomeoneTaller: According to a post Ari has made, when she met [=TheRunawayGuys=] and Masae, they all mentioned that they thought she was a lot taller than she actually is. As shown with [[https://twitter.com/AriZonia1/status/868072447366635520 this tweet]] she's short enough for Jon to comfortably rest his arms on her head.

* ForceAndFinesse: Ari and Roxie are basically foils of one another despite being best of friends. While Ari tends to know what she's doing so and acts stylish while doing just to show off, Roxie rushes in head first and somehow ends up doing pretty well.

* GoshDangItToHeck: Usually played straight, avoiding swearing or saying it quietly to not draw attention. Averted in Organ Trail where she turns into a [[SirSwearsALot MissSwearsALot]]
* GroinAttack: She preforms one of these in Organ Trail Round 2 when she shoots [[spoiler:Josh]] in that area, [[spoiler:thus killing him]] because he kept messing up her supplies

* InsistentTerminology: In Super Mario Galaxy 2's World 6 she always refers to the Melty Monster Galaxy as Melty Molten Galaxy[[note]]which was the name of a galaxy in the original ''VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy''[[/note]]. She doesn't notice until after recording but doesn't edit it in post. No one else seems to notice. Not even LetsPlay/ProtonJon, however; it's justified since he hadn't played the game since it was new.
* LaughingMad: In the finale of FTL Round two she devolves into this [[spoiler: because her ship was getting literally torn apart, a crew member burned to death, and the entire ship was pretty much on fire. This was only in phase one of the fight.]]
* LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain: During the fifth round of Organ Trail [[LetsPlay/NintendoCapriSun Tim]] found a kitten and Ari accepted the notion of the team keeping it, perhaps as a pet. Only for it to say "10oz of food collected". Not only did this render her speechless for a good fifteen seconds, her reaction once she finally finds words once more is pretty solid and the incident is never spoken of again.
*** Ari: Let's just pretend that never happened.
* MeaningfulName: "Ari Zonia" is very clever pun on the state of Arizona, where she hails from. For the people that are familiar to her deviantart, "Ari" stemmed from a nickname of a character she produced to represent Arizona for the ''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers'' fandom. "Zonia" came later when she started Let's Playing to provide a short nickname.
* MillionToOneChance: During the poker night stream with [=ProtonJon=], she talks about the one time she managed to win six rounds of blackjack in a row with either 21 or blackjack, against five other people no less.

*** Round 1: Ari herself, Chuggaaconroy, [=ProtonJon=], Shulk, and Dunban

*** Round 3: Princess Zelda, Samus Aran, Kumatora, LetsPlay/LucahJin and LetsPlay/MasaeAnela[[note]]All of them were female for the "Ladie's Night Out" round[[/]]

*** Round 2: Dunban, Ari herself, a friend of hers named Dylan, Magnus, Gaol, Sharla, Alvis, and Inigo[[note]]She had Nowi from FE:A but was quickly replaced by Inigo[[/note]]

* ShoutOut: During the earlier half of Super Mario Galaxy 2, and in most of her Collabs, she tends to mention either the memes or actual names of other Let's Players she watches. She tends to heavily reference LetsPlay/TheRunawayGuys, who were her main inspiration for starting her channel.
** She still likes to do that in her "Ari Plays" videos where the members of her team are frequently named after Let's Players
* TakeThat: More or less her response when she [[https://twitter.com/AriZonia1/status/1008480897333714944 showed off to Chuggaaconroy]] that she beat Pokemon White with a team of Pokemon that were described as bad, difficult to raise from their earliest availability, or in the case of a Larvesta from an egg, not worth the trouble at all.

* TemptingFate: She frequently does this in Organ Trail by talking about things that could possibly happen, like boss fights while scavenging or asking how things could get any worse when things go FromBadToWorse for the survivors.
* TheHyena: As shown in [[https://youtu.be/M2_DpLuXW8w?t=21m21s Mario Party 3]] with LetsPlay/TrevorBlade and Dharc, Ari is very easily amused to the point that anything that causes her to genuinely laugh may cause her to cackle to the point she can't breathe.

* AscendedFangirl: During the LetsPlay/TheRunawayGuys stream on December 9th, 2014 she was frequently making jokes in chat and getting the guy's attention with her antics. Especially when she subscribed to [=ProtonJon=] and Chuggaaconroy had a minor flip-out from recognizing her name
* AwesomeMcCoolname: Her name is an obvious pun off the U.S. state of Arizona. Bonus points to her since Ari is an actual name. Doubles as a MeaningfulName for her as well.

* ''VideoGame/EarthBound'': Blind with [=ShiningDarknessGames=]

* FiveManBand: In Universe for Organ Trail Round 1 (and the Redux) based upon the personalities of the five survivors

*** Round 4: Melia Antiqua, Yosuke Hanamura, SuperJeenius, [=ACFan120=], and TomFawkes

* AccidentalInnuendo: During GolfWithYourFriends a lot of her commentary, and everyone else's, is basically this. What do you expect out of a game with balls, holes, and stroking? This is Lampshaded of course but that's not a deterrent.

** This includes making a spreadsheet of EVERY single roll TheRunawayGuys made in Mario Party, and similar games, consistently lowering a race time in Mario Odyssey, and replaying through Pokemon White with a team made of Pokemon that Chuggaaconroy had described as either bad, or not worth the time to raise from the earliest point they're available.

** TheSmartGuy: TomFawkes
