While I recommend Nietzsche's book, too (I think it's one of the most beautiful works written in German just from the perspective of language), I doubt his character has much in common with the original Zoroaster beyond the name.
(I know next to nothing about Zoroastrianism, but Nietzsche was not big on religion.)
