Ziel begins as a background figure in the competition, a young-looking man with emerald horns and a gray cloak who seems perpetually on the verge of collapse. His arc reveals him as someone whose body appears eighteen but whose spirit feels twice that age, marked by experiences that have left him seeking rest above all else.

Description

A lean man whose emerald horns are his most striking feature, glistening in sunlight or resting against tree bark. He wears a tattered gray cloak with a hood that perpetually shades his eyes, and carries a hammer as his weapon of choice. Despite having the body of an eighteen-year-old, he moves with the haggard demeanor of someone who feels twice his age, often settling into positions as though trying to disappear entirely.
