Zillion Martinez

"*No one truly knows where Zill came from, or even what he is. As a child, he was often teased for his appearance, which was deemed unusual even amongst the diverse inhabitants of Safe Haven. Despite the ridicule, Zill worked hard to build a reputation as a kind creature, a friend to many, and even at times, a protector of his city.*"

**Zillion Martinez**, better known as **Zill**, is a member of The Main Five and an unknown creature in *Zoophobia*, although he is apparently some sort of chimera/dragon/demon hybrid. When he first met Jack, he was curious about him, not fazed at all by the other’s curse, and the two are now best friends. He is currently dating Kayla.

## Appearance

Zill is an orange-skinned creature with purple around the ends of his limbs, with a light green/turquoises snake tail and wings. His tail appears to be semi-independent, but often mirrors his mood and actions. In the short Bad Luck Jack, he has neon-green tipped ears and some singular, neon-green stripes under his joints, on his purple forearms and shins.

Zill's eyes shift when he's channeling his power, taking on a green hue and beginning to emit a faint glow.

## Personality

Zill has a rather laid back personality but can be quick to anger when someone harasses his friends. He also is shown to be selfless, willing to put himself between a stranger who wanted to fight and a vampire queen. In the short Bad Luck Jack, he puts himself between all sorts of dangers to ensure Jack doesn't get hurt.

Zill is a loving boyfriend to Kayla, though he can be forgetful as he forgot about their three year anniversary and was instead planning to sing their favorite song at the talent show. He does show awareness of his screw up, however, and is crushed by it, fearing but understanding why the two of them might be over.

## Abilities

### Natural Abilities

* **Enhanced durability:** Zill is shown to be highly resistant to damage. When preventing Jack from being hit by a wrecking ball, he was smashed into a wall but came out mostly unscathed, having suffered only a minor sprain to his wrist,
* **Flight**: Zill's wings allow him to achieve flight; which he has a fairly good control over, as he is able to fight while flying. He can travel quite fast in this way, surpassing even Venganza's speed when the latter chased him across Safe Haven,
* **Enhanced strength**: Zill is shown to be fairly strong, able to lift and move a piano with ease and even stop a moving meteorite from hitting Jack.

### Skillset

* **Bilingual**: Zill can speak both Spanish and English.

### Unique Abilities

* **Energy projection**: Zill is able to summon some sort of green energy from his hands, typically in the form of a sphere. He uses it mostly for combat, but the energy can start to manifest when he is angry.

## Relationships

### Kayla

Kayla is Zill's girlfriend. They both share passion for musical performances and more than one trait, like their courage to face intimidating foes and unwillingness to back down from a challenge. Their relationship had taken a hit after Zill forgot about their three year anniversary, in part because of actions of Damian. It was all rectified during a vampire attack on Safe Haven, which brought the two teenagers back together with newfound understanding of each other. Zill is very attached to Kayla, as the aforementioned anniversary accident had devastated him to the point of tears.

### Jack

Jack is an old friend of Zill. When young Zill arrived in Safe Haven, he couldn't even speak English. Over time, Jack taught the language to the chimera, which has only helped forge their current friendship. Zill values Jack so much he is willing to put himself in life-threatening situations if it shields the latter from the bad luck of his curse.

### Spam

Zill enjoys Spam's company, but finds his mannerisms odd at times.

### Vanexa

Zill and Vanexa do not interact much. The cat is the only member of the Main Five able to terrify Zill.

### Rusty

Rusty is Zill's enemy. While Zill is able to ignore being called rude names by Rusty, he will not tolerate Rusty being horrible to Jack and will quickly defend his best friend, at one point threatening to use his powers against the bully. Zill takes great pleasure in seeing Jack humiliating Rusty by both reminding Rusty that he has no friends as well as calling Rusty by his real name Ruben which Rusty hates. But, sometimes the fights get out of hand and the two of them get in a lot of trouble.

### Autumn

While Zill holds no ill will towards Autumn as they both dislike Rusty's bullying behavior, Zill does find the way Autumn and Rusty argue to be a little strange, claiming that there's a lot of tension between them. They are chill with each other>:( .

## Trivia

* Along with Spam, Jack, Kayla & Vanexa, he is one of Vivienne's "Original Five" characters she made in *Zoophobia's* early stages.
* He had no mouth in the early days of *Zoophobia*.
	+ Out of the original five, Zill is the oldest of the group.
* Despite being older than Jack, he is quite short compared to him, possibly measuring up to 5 '2" tall.
