Character Concept
Having lived the past 160 years as a Nuit, he has become used to his lifestyle, and has taken up the goal of becoming the world's greatest Summoner. This desire has become his major reason to continue living. Along with this, he wishes to leave a good name for his people after his death, which is the main reason he worships the goddess Dira, in an attempt to both ease relations, and increase his power.
He is respectful and prefers to be kind to others, in case he needs their assistance later, and the fact that they will be more likely to look over the whole 'Not alive thing'. Despite his desires to become a summoner, he has given thought to being a priest for the goddess Dira. He likes spending time with others, but does not have many friends. This does not bother him, as he has gone years in Sahova where he could count the number of conversations that last longer than three sentences he had on a single hand.
He does not fear death, however he does not wish to die until he becomes the world's greatest summoner and does something that he will leave a mark in history, and a good reputation for his people. He has a habit of underestimating opponents, and telling almost physically painful jokes and puns, even during combat.
Character History
Zeroth was born to a male Human merchant and a prostitute in the city of Zeltiva. He became bored of the constant, repetitive life he was living in the city and decided to escape off of his father's ship while delivering dead bodies to a settlement known as Sahova. He ended up being discovered by the Nuit, and willingly allowed them to perform
an experiment on him, feeding him Ichor, and turning him into a Nuit, with the desire to finally be able to experience the world and it's limitless potential. He later finds out he needs to replace his body every few years, and develops extreme depression because of this newfound dependence. He was horrified with his decision, and blamed no one but
himself. His main reason for not killing himself for so long was out of fear for the unknown.
On his 175th birthday, Zeroth planned to kill himself. He is stopped when he discovers a book on magic (This book was known as Magic and I) and he became enamored by the seemingly limitless power of Summoning magic. He begins to learn the craft of summoning magic over the next five years, day and night, constantly. Also, during this time, he studies voiding, as a method of both protection, and to ensure his economic stability. He travels to Sylira to acquire a job as a voider, to fuel his rapidly growing interest in summoning, and is shocked to learn that summoning magic is illegal. He practices his craft at night, on the outside of the walls. While in Syliras, he acquires a small apartment on the outskirts of town and learns of the goddess Dira from an old prophet, whom disappeared after only three weeks of speaking to Zeroth. Despite the hatred he new this god had for his people, Zeroth saw the value in the powers that could be gained, and studied in depth about this god in the libraries, and by speaking to worshipers.

Heirloom: A Scythe, given to Zoreth by his long dead father in case pirates raided the ship they were using on the voyage to Sahova. The weapon rarely leaves his side. One of the reasons for him studying Voiding was so that he would be able to have the Scythe in the most secure location possible. He replaced the blade with a cold iron blade upon reaching Sylira. He would rather die than lose this weapon. He has carried this weapon with him over all of his bodies. Etched into the handle it reads, To my son, Zeroth. May the gods smile upon you.
Housing
Location: Syliras
House: A 20x20 single roomed apartment. This home is in the outskirts of Syliras, in a particularly crime-ridden area near The Ironworks. Let's just say, a new body wouldn't be to difficult to find a new body here, when the need arises.
Goals
Despite Dira's displeasure at his race's mere existence, Zeroth has made it a goal of his to help ease the tensions between them, through worship. Zeroth plans to kill himself and return to the cycle of life and death once he completes his 3 major goals. 1: Become the world's greatest summoner. 2: Leave a mark on the history of the world. 3: Help relations between the Nuit and the rest of the world.
