Zel is a kindhearted albino werewolf with low self-worth. He is fiercely loyal, but incredibly shy.

History

Zel is the third child out of seven children. Five of his siblings are full siblings, and his youngest sibling only shares the same mother, not the same father. The order goes like this: Garrett (27), Emeline (19), Zelig (16), Lucas (12), Emeric (12), Zena (11), and Nicolette (Lettie, aged 3). His mother was approximately 6’0 in height, and his father was a full foot taller than her. As a result, all the children are extremely tall for their age.

His family was middle class. Both his parents were healers, though his mom specialized in potions. His father was always very discriminatory towards werewolves, and was a very loud voice in the community opposing werewolves. When Emeline was a child, and she was a victim of a werewolf attack. Zel’s father was killed in the attack. Their mother was pregnant with Zora at the time. As a result, their mother had to homeschool Emeline because she did not want her children to face werewolf discrimination. They moved back to Cardiff after Emeline was attacked, and Zel's mother began making wolfsbane potion herself, not trusting the ministry to make it properly. He and Emeline are very close. Emeline wants to become an auror, but is hesitant that the fact that she is a werewolf would hold her back.

After the death of his father, his mother married a nice, short Welsh wizard whose magic skills were quite dismal, and his sister Nettie was born. Zel loves his siblings dearly, and they are his closest friends. However, his relationship with his mother is strained. She resents Zel and Emeline for being werewolves, and particularly blames Emeline for the death of her first husband. As a result, her punishments to Emeline can be rather severe, even going as far as to withhold wolfsbane potions from her on occasion, and simply locking her up in the shed in the backyard.

In the summer of 2009, Emeline did not receive a wolfsbane potion. As a result, she attacked Zel when he went to check up on her in the shed where she usually went during the full moon. Emeline is incredibly guilt ridden over it, and Zel feels nervous about whether or not his school will accept him, now that he is a werewolf. He desperately wants to keep his lycanthropy a secret, but he knows that once he started to regularly disappear during the full moon, word would get out. He hopes that no one will notice, because he is so shy, he never made very many friends, or at least very many close friends. He is considering distancing himself from the few people he feels comfortable with, thus erasing any chance he has of hurting them. Zel holds a large amount of resentment towards his mother, believing it is her fault that Emeline even attacked him in the first place.

Zel’s mother is incredibly ashamed that two of her children are now werewolves, and subject to discrimination. She has used harsh words towards Zel and Emeline, leading the two to feel an incredibly deep sense of self-hatred. Surprisingly enough, the attack did not drive a wedge between him and his sister. In fact, the bond between them grew stronger due to their mutual lycanthropy. He understands that his sister had absolutely no control, and the only person he blames for the attack is himself.
