**Character Art: [Default / Predeath]**

## Starcluster Datapac

Zemadonis and his younger brother Almafur were prestigious mages in the past, born to the Onyxum tribe. His specialty was lunar magic, capable of releasing moon-powered lightning and gravity traps to play around his opponents. The Eye of the Moon he was blessed with furthered his lunar magic. However, he was never a fair player when he was dealt a losing hand, like the time he fought the Paufinton clan in a tournament.

He came up with the idea of poisoning the opposition, and was ultimately caught due to a double agent. He and his brother were disqualified, and while he felt regret for it, he had to stop Almafur from doing something stupid in his anger. However, he was given his judgement and had his mouth sewn shut. After catching up to his brother, the cave the two found themselves in collapsed, ending their lives.

In present day, he became much more cold and ruthless due to the Corrupt Onyx that attached itself to the twins' eyes. In a revenge scheme against the Paufintons of the present, he devised a plan to control the fighters of today. However, he could never truly oppose AnthonyM. Eventually Mufog trying to strip his and his brother's power away made him realize the error of his ways, and he temporarily sided with AnthonyM to take them down. He and Almafur finally had independence and a reason to fight for themselves for the first time in centuries!

## Background

### Early life

In life, Almafur and his brother Zemadonis were magic-benders in training. Together they were a team; Zemadonis was the thinker and Almafur was the doer. However, the Onyxum tribe's choice to nominate them as their representatives for the Sketch Arena Tournament was a mistake.

In the brothers' hatred, they poisoned the Paufinton tribe's representatves in secret. Catching word of this, Grand Judge Yolanforus disqualified the twins. Their tribe sent them into exile before they ended up creating the very Black Gem that would resurrect the brothers after gaining sentience.

With the black gem bonding to the twins' eyes, they were imbued with sinister power and bided their time to take revenge.

### *Sketch Arena Tournament*

Finally seeing an ideal moment to strike, Almafur and his brother Zemadonis corrupted the entire roster... except for AnthonyM and Shadus, who could not be turned. Thanks to Ace and Wyldcard, who unknowingly found and freed them, they ran rampant and caused havoc across Sketchia.

After the two heroes reunited the roster, along with Ace and Wyldcard saving them from a second corruption, the brothers combined their power to summon Onyx, the monstrous spirit sealed within the gem.

With Onyx defeated, Dreamkeeper would seal the brothers in Dream Jars, unable to free themselves.

### *Heroes of Elementia*

Zemadonis appears as the final boss of Oriself's EX story mode. Rather than straightforwardly corrupting him, Zemadonis plans to toy with his rival and give him a fighting chance to save a captured Nuage.

Thanks to Shadus, he manages to free her and imprison the phantom.

### *Smol Ant's Big Quest*

Almafur and his brother Zemadonis seem to cause an uproar in the standard pests of Penciltown and beyond, causing them to become more aggressive than normal. With many heroes out of commission or unaware, Smol Ant readies his tiny self to take on the creatures.

In the end, Smol Ant's squad of clones take down the brothers and Onyx, freeing a captured AnthonyM, Cybern, Crystallon, Jammo, Zakonu, and Lady Elementia.

### *AnthonyM and the Multiverse: Crossing Rifts*

During the beginning of the game, the brothers are seen harnessing the Voidripper's power to teleport away and corrupt most of the Fighters, leaving only the main six, each in their own world and unaware.

Zemadonis tended to watch over AnthonyM and Jammo as they wandered around and looked for their friends, sending enemies to fight them. He and Almafur usually are seen spying on AnthonyM's progress and tormenting him and The Cause with boss fights based on their memories, made in the image of past threats.

When the original 22 Fighters are all gathered, Almafur and Zemadonis can be fought, and after their loss, the Voidripper becomes aggressive and discards the brothers. It is then revealed that Mufog is now controlling the beast, tearing holes in space and leaking in other universes. With the brothers weakened, they retreat and join The Cause to stop the newly-sentient Voidripper Mufog.

## Personality

Zemadonis tends to be the more cunning of the two and tends to manipulate others from the sidelines. Unlike Almafur, he has a more sideline approach, preferring to use long-range tactics to keep opponents away. He can usually see any gaps in his opponents' defenses and has the predictive sense to match AnthonyM in battle.

Zemadonis has the more intelligent mind of the two brothers, and tends to get annoyed at Almafur's hyperactivity easily. He tends to get into arguments and fights with his brother due to them never having good execution with his plans. Even then, he still plans to live his best afterlife.

## Relationships

### Almafur

Zemadonis deeply cares about his brother despite them butting heads a lot. He just regrets not being able to stop Almafur in his blind rage all those years back.

### AnthonyM

Zemadonis sees AnthonyM as a true rival to his own chessmastery. He was always determined to get a checkmate on him, only for Ant to keep checkmating his plans.

### Lady Elementia

Zemadonis has always wondered if Lady Elementia was a wrathful diety, and thought she was for some time. However, his free will being given back to him and fighting alongside her opened his eyes to her true nature as a loving mother.

### Mufog

Zemadonis resents Mufog for puppeting him the way they did. After having his powers partially siphoned and his free will back, Zemadonis chose to oppose Mufog instead of side with him.

## Physical Appearance

### Pre-Death

Zemadonis, when he was alive, was a tall teenager with dark skin, dark brown hair with blue-violet streaks through it, and blue-violet eyes. His "magic eye" had a pupil shaped like a crescent moon. He wore a pendant with batlike wings and a Z in its middle, a flowing robe, a light blue undershirt, black pants, and kimono sandals.

### Black Gem

When resurrected, the Black Gem shard covers his left eye while his right eye is now red with a black sclera. Said eye has a pupil shaped like half of the Yin-Yang. His skin has become a sickly gray, and his hair has become silver with red streaks. He still retains his robe and undershirt, but his sleeves are rolled up. In place of his legs, he has a faded crimson ghostly tail.
