Personality: Appears as a down to earth, easy going man being more childish and silly than an adult male should be. And for about ninety percent of the time, this would be a true statement. He hardly ever shows anger and has only done so once and that was when he was a child getting put in the corner for misbehavior. He really only seems to radiate happiness, while people will say this is a good thing they would rather him be happy and mature.

Yet for that ten percent, is when he is cold hearted and out for blood hence the mask. He wears it so he can enter an alter ego sort of state where he is nothing more than a trained killer, that will achieve victory no matter the cost. He has shown that without it on that he has troubles with killing others, even if its his job to do so. Fearing they will remember his face and haunt him, so he wears the mask to hide his face and to hide his real self.

Biography: Born in a plain town that's biggest population was a hundred at most. Zeig would spend most of his day fanboying over the soldiers that would arrive every now and then, to deliver supplies to the village. So it was a humorous sight when you would see a male in his twenties bouncing up and down like a child. Thats when one day a female soldier tossed a wooden sword at him and grinned, saying that usually they play with the children and not grown adults but that he would be an exception. He would laugh and rub the back of his head, and would end up getting the shit kicked out of him. He almost wished he was a child, she would have let him win at least.

Yet he aimed to make sure that the next time those soldiers arrived, that he wouldn't be beaten in ten seconds flat. So he practiced for months against a scarecrow of course as others were too busy, so it looked humorous to see him jabbing at one with a wooden play sword. So when these soldiers arrived, and the same female from before dangled the wooden sword in front of him he accepted the challenge right away. He lost, he did last another ten seconds though which made him pump his right fist as he rubbed his chest with his other arm. The woman would laugh and finally introduce herself as Mira, she would then offer him a ride to the capital where he could be a professional soldier. Instantly he accepted this offer and would say goodbye to his parents as he shook with excitement on the horse ride back to Calice.

He would spend the next two years training and greatly improving his sword play, while also having his sparring matches with Mira from time to time which she would win hands down every time. Their relationship would also blossom into something more, with the other trainees teasing him for losing to his own woman every time. He waved this off though, he had fun with his spars even though one hundred percent of the time he ended up with an injury. Upon graduation at the age of twenty three, their first task was to wipe out bandits that were terrorizing a town. So all the new graduates plus a few veterans, one being Mira rode out to the town where the bandits were causing chaos. They were told to pincer them in and eliminate them. They had the superior numbers so wiping the bandits out should of been easy. Yet for Zeig when it came down to it, he just couldn't raise his sword to kill them. Even when one of his allies had one at a stalemate, he couldn't rush in to help him and instead watched as the bandit's ally rushed in and killed his ally.

At the end of the day the bandits were killed but they did take some casualties. And on the ride home Zeig just sat in silence with a terror in his eye as everyone decided to leave him be. Upon return, he was stripped of his duties as a soldier and was deemed un-fit to protect his countries people. So he spent his days at home, where Mira would still visit him and spar with him. She did find it odd he could spar with people, yet when it came to a real fight he just froze up.

One day he decided to take a trip back to his hometown while Mira was off stationed to the south. On his way back to his hometown, he stumbled upon a rather well built man being robbed by three adult males. The robbers all has knives, while the male had a sword. Zeig had his own sword but he shown to be a coward when it came to a real battle. That didn't stop him from being spotted and dragged in, instead of having to fight though the black haired swordsman looked at him and held his hand out for him almost as if to tell him to wait. What Zeig saw was the fastest stokes of a sword in his life. In under ten seconds all three robbers were dead before they had a chance to react. So when he was approached by the swordsman, he was shocked and somewhat scared when the man mentioned that he could see it in Zeig's eyes that he was a coward when it came to killing, yet had a love for the art of swordplay.

They would set up camp together, in which the man would tell stories of how hes met many people with the same fear, and they all overcame it with a weird but effective method. That was when the man pulled out a mask out of his pack and handed it to Zeig. He was of course confused but when told the reason behind it, it all seemed to make sense. If he had troubles killing as himself, then if he became someone else with a different face then he would have no troubles protecting his country. No one would be able to curse his real face and haunt him and instead would simply hate a fake face. This however was put to the test, a mile to the east was a small bandit hideout. In which together they would arrive and wipe them out. Nervous he accepted and walked the next mile to their little camp, putting the mask on he went into the fake face's mindset and like an upgrade to himself he showed no hesitation in striking them down with help from the man who gave him the help from the start.

With the bandits dead Zeig would thank the man before they parted ways, where Zeig would spend a nice week back at his hometown before arriving back at Chalice and asking to be reinstated, he offered them a test to prove himself. With Mira's vouching for him they reluctantly gave him one more shot, so when news spread of a little bandit hideout, a group of veterans took him out to combat them. Once they arrived they were a little confused by him putting on a mask, yet shocked to see him actually fighting them off and striking them down. With the bandits dead they all applauded him and returned to the capital with nothing but good remarks and so he was reinstated in the military.

After three years in the military, talks about a rebellion would surface from the south and the emperor would begin to recruit volunteers to put this rebellion down. With the volunteers plus the actual army, Zeig didn't expect this rebellion to end well, but he did admit to some curiosity about their accusation on them enslaving Laguz.
