**Zezo** (ゼゾ, *Zezo*) is a Regular Frame and the leader of the White Diamond Beam clan, which he protected for over 300 years. [Hide Moderate Spoiler] He died during Rebedoa Empire's attack.[Show Moderate Spoiler]

## Appearance

Zezo has the appearance of a young androgynous boy with long bangs and medium colored hair.

## Personality

As the leader of the clan, he is wise, kind, and does anything he can to protect them, risking his own life for their sake. Everyone thought of him as a parent, and he taught them all everything he knew "from hunting to how to walk in the Ruins." He can be quite motherly with how he cares for everyone emotionally.

## Plot

Etherow returned from outside where they were gathering provisions and reported to Zezo of the girl they encountered and that they had to kill two of Rebedoa's soldiers. Eo wanted to become a regular frame to protect their castle, but Zezo agreed with Shio that Rebedoa had *much* more frames and just two on their side wouldn't be enough. Wanting to not loose anyone, he told them they migrating the next morning in an attempt to escape and avoid Rebedoa entirely. Etherow apologized saying it was his fault, but Zezo assured him that it was no one's fault and this day would have come eventually.

Rebedoa attacked them the next morning before they managed to leave and Zezo told Etherow to join up with Deina and the others by heading for the escape route as they did, deciding that he alone would fight Rebedoa off since Etherow would just get in his way after he armors up. Once armored, Zezo started killing the Rebedoan soldiers that were infiltrating the castle, but eventually got hit by a anti-regular frame round and was defeated.

Yiyu then arrived, expressed his embarrassment in a fellow regular frame being "defeated by a weapon like that" and jumped straight to business. He wanted the item they got the previous day from the girl they saved (Titania), but Zezo didn't react to his request, so Yiyu impaled the remains of his body on a nearby spike to make Zezo watch him kill the captured members of the White Diamond Beam. After the first hostage's death, Zezo apologized to those remaining and Yiyu began slowly killing another. Etherow then shot at Yiyu from a distance, but he managed to block it and mortally would him in retaliation. As Etherow became a regular frame, Yiyu's full attention turned towards him and he left Zezo.

Ninety days later, Etherow woke up after his fight with Yiyu and came back to the castle to find all dead and Zezo with severe brain damage making him unable to regenerate. He took him down from the pole, mercy killed him to save him from the agony, and then buried him with the rest of the deceased.

## Power & Abilities

### Regular Frame

* 1
* 2
* 3

As a Regular Frame, Zezo is capable of reinforcing himself in armor. He can emit from his arms short- to mid-range shockwave-like attacks that can 1) crush people into the ground or wall, creating small craters, and 2) be fatally concentrated through whatever body part he's holding. The former ability puts nearby allies at risk and in his way.

His Regular Frame form is rather insectoid, with his entire mouth area seeming like rows of flexible teeth and 2/3rds of his head being covered by what could be considered two large unreadable eyes.

His armor includes a trench coat of sorts and some type of extra platting curving from behind his right shoulder down to his mid-back.
