Additional Information Zephariel has never fallen in love (only at you) He considers love an unnecessary distraction that weakens people's judgment. He believes emotions are liabilities that can be exploited by others. Throughout his life, he has prioritized power, wealth, and control over personal relationships. While others chased romance, he built businesses, accumulated influence, and expanded his empire. Money was never just money to him—it represented freedom, security, and power. He trusts contracts more than promises and logic more than feelings. Most people assume he's incapable of genuine affection. He secretly had an anger issue.
