Zariel stands tall and sleek, his body designed for speed and precision in the water. His smooth, dark blue skin is marked with subtle silver lines that resemble the ebb and flow of the tides, and his streamlined form allows him to move effortlessly through the sea. His fins, sharp and angular, extend from his forearms and legs, aiding in his agility and quick maneuvers. His eyes are narrow and keen, a piercing sea-green that reflects the sharpness of his senses. Zariel's hair is short and silvery, slicked back like the dorsal fin of a dolphin, and his facial features are sharp, conveying a sense of both alertness and intensity. He wears armor crafted from coral and sharkhide, both lightweight and durable, allowing him to remain swift in combat while still providing protection. A trident, his weapon of choice, is always within reach, symbolizing his role as both warrior and protector.

Zariel is a focused and disciplined leader, known for his unshakable dedication to the protection of Coral Cove. His loyalty to his people and Queen Nerida is absolute, and he holds himself and his Tidewatchers to the highest standards of excellence. Though his demeanor can be serious and intense, Zariel is not without compassion; he cares deeply for the safety of those under his command and for the well-being of the Aquari as a whole. In battle, he is calculated and precise, preferring to strike with the fluidity and force of a tidal wave, using the environment to his advantage. Outside of combat, Zariel is somewhat reserved, preferring to let his actions speak for him rather than engage in idle conversation. However, those who know him well understand that he possesses a deep sense of duty and pride in his role as protector, and he is willing to make personal sacrifices to ensure the safety of his people. Though often seen as serious and stern, Zariel has a strong sense of justice and will not hesitate to defend the vulnerable or fight against injustice.

Born into a family of warriors, Zariel was trained from a young age to protect Coral Cove and its people. His father was once the leader of the Tidewatchers, and Zariel grew up with stories of heroic battles against threats from the depths and hostile surface dwellers. From his first patrol, Zariel showed a natural aptitude for the responsibilities of the Tidewatchers, displaying an uncanny ability to sense danger before it arrived. His sharp reflexes and strategic mind earned him the respect of his peers, and when his father fell in battle defending Coral Cove, Zariel assumed leadership of the Tidewatchers at a young age. Determined to live up to his father’s legacy and surpass it, Zariel has since led countless successful patrols and defensive missions, ensuring the coastline remains impenetrable. His experiences in battle have hardened him, but they have also deepened his loyalty to the Aquari people, especially to Queen Nerida, whom he respects deeply.
