or "zeal" for short, he's councilman somato's muscle and an exemplary member of his species' warrior class. he makes that average guy look like a twink by comparison.
i'm going to call the crabfolks the malacos (after a class of crustaceans). their society is heavily stratified by class, and closely intertwined with somato's species, which i still.... need to name. i don't like any of the scientific names for nudibranches or sea angels to use them >:/
anyway he's just as much an asshole as somato is, enjoying the privileges and honors that come with serving such an important figure in his society. privileges that include access to the strange new species somato keeps visiting...
