About:
Content Warning: It's Zelos from the bad end, so there's going to be many mentions of suicide. Tags with him will be mostly safe since that's not really a topic he'll want to talk about.
The former Chosen of Tethe'alla. In Zelos's world, they had a ritual in which every generation, a Chosen One would be born and they'd be tasked either with saving the world by sacrificing himself, or just hanging around in case the world needed saving. Zelos was the latter, and thus spent most of his life as some public spectacle. Zelos would play it up for the crowds, but hated his life, so behind the scenes he'd follow just about every avenue he could to try to get him out of it. Unfortunately in his own timeline, his freedom came in the form of his death.

But instead of heading to the afterlife, Zelos found himself in the world of Kaisou amongst the first of the otherworlders. Bewildering as it was, he spent the next couple years trying to make the most of it while dealing with his OH SO MANY personal issues. And to help pay his bills, he made an Onlyfans account which ended up being VERY successful.

Then one day, he dropped off the app and seemingly couldn't recall his canon life. How strange.

The truth was more complicated. Privately, he'd been contacted by a lady who claimed to be his half-sister. As it turns out, there had been a Zelos Wilder that had reincarnated in this world. He'd been the son of a famous religious celebrity who passed away after a scandal got exposed, and was a child actor himself before fading into obscurity once puberty hit. This Zelos unfortunately had the same self-destructive tendencies, and ultimately died without any public fanfare not long before our Zelos showed up in Kaisou. His half-sister, was now without any family, stumbled onto an advertisement for Zelos's OnlyFans account. Desperate, she decided to reach out.

While Zelos was initially EXTREMELY skeptical, eventually the lady managed to convince him that she wasn't lying or trying to con him. And truth be told, he was lonely and couldn't shake the hole in his heart that came from the knowledge he'd never see his sister Seles again. And so.... he decided to go along with this and accept this sister into his life. And since it's not like they could tell the world "hey this is my sibling from another universe" and they were still semi-public figures, Zelos decided to pretend to be that other Zelos who'd lived in this world all along.

And that's what he's been up to all this time. A dead man pretending to be another dead man. He wasn't expecting the app to reappear on his phone-- but well, the show must go on.

Most likely, he won't acknowledge he's actually an otherworlder. He'll pretend he's like Anastasia, an AU person who only just happens to resemble a previous otherworlder. The only tell? A necklace with a makeshift keycrest made of everstone ore found in the Kanto region.

What are they up to: The easiest way to know Zelos is from his onlyfans! Please subscribe!
Otherwise he's been in Kaisou, fully playing up the part of an AU who doesn't know any better.

Looking for: People who knew the other Zelos! People who knew him last time he was on the app! And I'm leaving the half-sister in this world vague, in case anyone is interested in that role (it doesn't HAVE to be Seles).
