General Personality: Zel is made up of five people. There's the one you see normally, but there's 4 others called Shrike, Squirrel, Wolf, and Kitten. They all generally like and dislike the same things, but they're different in temperament.
Zel: Zel is the normal one. He prefers to keep outside of cities, lest does Shrike see a good target. This personality is also Kitten's counterpart. Zel is only cold so that it won't hurt if someone dies, due to a tragic accident that occurred to a friend of his when he was young. If one were to get close to him, they would discover that beneath the cold exterior is a warm, friendly person. Zel is generally quiet, only talking if he has to. Zel is also the coldest of the five.
Squirrel: Squirrel is skittish. Very skittish. In fact, Squirrel was named for his squirrel-ish tendencies to scavenge for nuts and fruit. Squirrel is timid and kind. If cornered, Squirrel can and will climb up whatever is nearby. Being quite the climber also means that Squirrel has the best balance out of the five. Squirrel, once you get him talking, is very talkative and loud. Squirrel can, very technically, talk about nearly anything. Squirrel is also the weakest of the five, unable to defend himself as well as the others can.
Shrike: Shrike is the most violent of the five. Anyone who looks to be a weak or easy (sometimes both) target, he will find some reason to kill them off. It's just too tempting for him. When cornered, he fights his way out. His favorite weapon is the hidden blade. Being able to easily deceive others, his favorite act is to pretend to be a lost child and then kill the person when no one is looking using the hidden blade by acting as though Shrike is going to grasp onto the other's shirt from their back. Shrike almost never talks unless he is putting on an act. However, he can be generous. If he sees someone struggling, depending on his mood, he may just reach his hand out in a silent offer to help. Sometimes, he doesn't even offer his help; he just helps.
Wolf: Wolf is the solitary one. He absolutely hates others, and will kill others if they get in his way. Of course, Wolf doesn't kill like Shrike does. Wolf, in his raspy voice, will give one and only one warning before attacking. However, he is more prone to showing mercy to defeated enemies instead of simply killing them. Wolf is also a lot more prone to ignore others instead of attacking. If he has to, he will help out others for no price, as he doesn't believe in currency. Wolf is the calmest of the five.
Kitten: Kitten is the most childish of the five. This personality has the best memory of the five, and most of that memory is small happy little rhymes. Being the most playful, Kitten has a diluted sense of danger. Making friends at a pace unimaginable, Kitten is probably the only one to willingly throw himself into danger. Kitten likes to race, and race he will, with just about anyone. Sometimes, his childish happiness will be strained, though it's only visible if you look directly into his eyes. He likes to play pranks, though his pranks are overly simple and easily avoided. Kitten would gladly trade places with a friend if they were going to be killed. Luckily, nothing like this has happened yet.
What you looking at, b***h?
Basic Appearance: A small teen stands in the road. So small, in fact, he almost went unnoticed by you. Pale-skinned from sitting in the shadows all the time, he's nearly a ghost. Large, silver eyes that seem to stare straight through your soul seem to glance around almost every second, as though he's expected you to jump him. His short silver hair seems to glow as the faint moonlight hits it. His hair looks to be spiked, but you can tell it's natural from one glance at the way it sticks out. He looks almost girlish in stature, and the way he holds himself. You aren't sure, but is that a glint of metal hidden in his glove?
Preferred Clothing: The short, girlish teen simply stands there. You can now see the white, sleeveless overcoat he wears. You can also barely see a black t-shirt in the dark night. Brown leather boots adorn his feet, and you can tell they're lightweight when he comes walking towards you. He pulls his hood over his face so that you can't see it in the darkness. You can, however, still see his eyes. He stops a few feet away from you, and you can now see the sheath of a shortsword. A brown strap goes across his chest and back, which is were the sheath is. You can also see a red sash under a brown belt which has many pouches. Black jeans cover his legs. You see a glint of metal again in his brown gloves. You weren't seeing things - there's a hidden blade in the glove. He also appears to have many pockets. He takes a step closer to you. Two kunais glint from their place on his shoulder. Suddenly feeling unsure, you take a step back. He appears to laugh silently before stepping back and turning around. A few arrow heads stick out from a pouch, and you're unsure if he stole them or not. As he walks away, moving as though his clothes weigh nothing though you're positive they were heavy, you're sure you can see faint bloodstains on his sword's scabbard.

History: Zel was the oldest child of the family. It was discovered early on that he had five alternate egos, as he seemed to change every hour. When he was 4, his brother was born. Zel was allowed to choose his brother's name, and he chose Dash. Then, just a year later, his sister was born. The name Daria came from his mother. At this time, he was 5. Wandering away one day into the forest, he decided not to return, thus allowing his brother and sister to grow up not knowing him at all. Squirrel pleaded with Zel to turn back, but Zel denied, walking further away. Soon after, he got lost. This was, however, fine by him. Being alone allowed him to quietly discover his other egos better. Shrike ended up killing a bird, Squirrel was frightened by said bird and hid in a bush, Wolf snapped at Squirrel for being scared of a dead bird, and Kitten decided that playing in the river was way more important than eating the bird that Shrike caught. He had one friend. Her name was Nika. And Shrike killed her. It hurt so much that Zel resolved to never have another person get close to him ever again, so that it wouldn't hurt if they died. Encountering an assassin one day, he was recruited almost immediately for his aggressive behavior and small body. He saw his father, but Wolf, the personality in control at the time, coldly ignored him. His father didn't even recognize him. Given a uniform, which is what he wears now, and a few small daggers, he went through the ranks like a hot knife through butter. At age 10, he was given a sword. At age 12, he was given two kunais. At age 15, he given the hidden blade. Mastering his weapons took time, and he was eventually well equipped with all of them. He even had a bow at one point, but he stashed it outside of Hyrule Castle Town, in the woods. Now at 17, he receives no more training. Instead, he moves through the land, killing off labeled targets. They aren't physically labeled, but instead labeled in a way only assassins can detect. Wolf, at one point, encountered one of these. They were weak from no food, and Wolf saw no point in killing off such a weak target. After beating the target into submission, he forced them to promise to never bother the Assassin's Creed again. Shrike, however, had a better idea after they made this promise.
Shrike left the body outside of the castle.
At the moment, Zel is killing off citizens around the villages near the castle that are Marked as targets, which scares the citizens. Zel regrets scaring the Innocents, but he has no choice if he wants to kill off the Marked. Luckily, the guards are so incompetent that he gets away with each murder with just about nothing for the guards to go off of if they want to catch him.

Other: Zel likes to siiiiiiiiing and has pretty strong magic and has little idea how to use it. His eyes also change colors depending on the personality. Red for Shrike, ice blue for Wolf, green for Kitten, purple and turquoise for Squirrel, and silver for himself. Whenever Shrike's personality is active, he will gain little horns like a devil.
**NOTE** Even though Zel wishes to be female and prefers to be treated as such, Zel does use male pronouns. When writing, Zel will be referred to as "he, his, him, himself" as opposed to "she, hers, her, herself". The exception is when another character thinks he is female.
