| Physical description: | |
| Zerros is 6'3, giving him an imposing silhouette not just in comparison to Humans and Elves but other Tieflings as well. Deep crimson eyes are accentuated by his slate-grey skin, occasionally glowing bright red under certain conditions. He has a toned, muscular frame, giving him a broad yet sleek look, topped off by curving horns jutting out from his skull. Facial features include a grey-white beard and a scar over his left eye. He wears an outfit of aristocracy, which gives off a rather darker and threatening appearance. His rich outer shirt has a complex dark pattern. His red bottoms, in deep crimson color accentuate his devilish nature and kingly stature. He also has on a fur-covered mantle, draped across his broad shoulders that gives him an impressive profile and a wilder edge that inspires respect. A long, billowy cloak trails behind him that is carried by the movement of his stride. His slate-grey tail hangs under his cloak, now fully restored, and still sensitive to the touch. Around his middle he wears a golden chain, clearly visible as a display of prosperity. On his left side is a well-worn book that is attached with a discreet clip - the faint aura of planar knowledge emanating from its mere presence. |

| Personality: | |
| Zerros goes through life with a deceptively casual grace and disarming demeanor. His affable nature and well-timed smile are weapons and tools which allow him to blend in to all manner of social situations. The outward persona he cultivates masks a far more complex and nuanced character within. The true Zerros is a fortress hardened by the harsh lessons his life has taught him. The tragedy he enacted in his village, the devastating loss of Amelia, and the vicious training done by ‘the Order of the Veiled Eye’ have all been milestones that turned him into the person he is today, someone fiercely independent who has a hard time trusting others. Trust is not something freely given; he considers it a treasure that must be earned through trial and tribulation, and only a select few have proven themselves worthy beyond a shadow of a doubt. Self-motivated and power-hungry, Zerros is not subject by conventional ethics. Ultimately, he is all about control and he is willing to do anything necessary in an effort to gain control of his own life and those around him. The traumas and scars of the past have merely hardened him and fuelled his resolve. His primary motivation is to seize reigns of his destiny, no matter the cost. "In this ever-changing world, where many shy away from the difficult choices, I stand firm. I am the necessary evil, the one who does what other's wont. I am not the evil the world wants, but the darkness it desperately needs." |

| Pact: | |
| Zerros has made a pact with a Devil from Cania, the frozen wasteland of Hell. His patron serves Mephistopheles, the Lord of Hellfire. The relationship between Zerros and his patron was cemented by two distinct pacts. | |
| Religious views: | |
| Zerros is rather spiteful to the divine, which was born from years of experiencing both the volatile favour and rather harsh indifference of the gods. He has seen prayers go unanswered, and miracles granted to the undeserving. Their scepticism of superior powers is not a result of disbelief but of hardened reality. He has learned the hard way of how the world works. | |
