Zellogi
CharacterZellogi is one of the death gods who watches Ryuk's adventures in the human realm from afar. Distinguished by a feathered headdress and a hook where his left hand should be, he follows the gossip among his kind once word spreads that Ryuk's notebook has landed with a living human.
Appearance
A feathered headdress in the Native American style crowns him, matched by a set of broad white wings whose plumage echoes it. Where his left hand belongs, a hook juts out instead. When his drawn-back lips part, rows of small, sharp teeth show through, and his tailbone trails downward past his legs.
Personality
His looks suggest something frail, yet his curiosity runs deep. Once he learns that Ryuk's Death Note has passed to a human, he grows fascinated by what Ryuk is doing among mortals and by people in general. He has a fondness for soft things and no patience for humid weather. In one moment he lounges with three other death gods, cracking jokes at Ryuk's expense and dismissing him as Light's charmless pet while the group laughs along.
Abilities
As a shinigami, Zellogi belongs to the death-god race whose notebooks decide mortal lifespans, and he is placed at the fifth rank among them. His recorded traits lean toward a heavy kill tally while scoring low on empathy and drive, with middling knowledge. He is also shown idling away time in games of chance alongside his fellow death gods.
