Zoë Castillo is an ordinary girl from Casablanca. She is one among three controllable characters in Dreamfall: The Longest Journey. She gets caught up in things way beyond her seemingly insignificant college dropout life. She proves to be resourceful and courageous as she fights for her life.

Zoë Maya Castillo is the protagonist of Dreamfall, and she is slated to return as a major playable character in Dreamfall Chapters. She was born in 2199 as the daughter of the bioneer Gabriel Castillo and an unknown Chinese woman. She is the owner of Wonkers the Watilla, whom she has had since she was four, and is a black belt in an unspecified martial art.

Zoë is a strong-minded and strong-willed young woman, who regrets some of the actions she is forced to take on her journey but fights for the greater good, both of humanity and to save Reza Temiz.

Prior to Dreamfall:
When Zoë was 4 years old her mother died; Gabriel bought her Wonkers to provide some comfort in this time. She went to primary school in London, and although she has since lived all over the world, Zoë kept her English accent for the rest of her life. She was 10 years old when the Collapse occurred (2209). Her residential subsection was shut down for several days and Gabriel was anxious to protect her, so she did not witness much of the chaos.

Zoë later enrolled at Cape Town University, taking a Bioneering degree - "my beautiful and talented daughter following in my footsteps," as her father teases - with a steady boyfriend, the journalist Reza Temiz. But about five or six months ago she dropped out of university, broke up with Reza and moved back to live with her father in Jardin de Roses, Casablanca. Feeling a loss of direction and emptiness in her life but having nothing to fill it with. She spent most of her time going to the gym to train with Jama Mbaye, visiting her friend Olivia DeMarco, drinking coffee and taking long showers. As she told Reza, she had enough money to go wherever she wanted and do whatever she pleased, but there was nothing she wanted to do.
