Zestial

"We know not how this perished. Mayhaps t'was not by a demon's hand at all. If we rush to war without knowing, mightn't they purge all of Hell for daring an uprising?"

- Zestial, to Velvette regarding proposing to fight against Heaven

Zestial is a demon and one of the many powerful Overlords of Hell. Zestial is the oldest Overlord, whether by age or how long he has reigned is unclear.

Appearance
Zestial is a very tall, slender spider-like demon with dark gray skin and lime green eyes. He wears all-black clothing, with a pitch-black cloak that covers most of his body. When Zestial unfurls his cloak, his eyes glow and the top pair gain red irises.

At the front of his cloak is a large black spider with lime green stripes on its eight legs, as well as lime green eyes and lime green on its back. The interior of his cloak is lime green colored with a spider web pattern and four red spider legs extending across the cloak.

He also wears a distinctive big black top hat with a light grey patch at the front, along with a gray colored skull and a lime green and red striped feather on the right side.

Personality
Zestial speaks in an archaic dialect redolent of Early Modern English. He has a very sophisticated way of speaking, and often keeps his temper rather than get easily frustrated, as the case when Velvette mocks him. Though he is shown to be somewhat petty, loudly sipping his tea to cut Velvette off mid-sentence before insulting her.

His reputation is such that demons other than his fellow Overlords are terrified of him, hiding or cowering whenever he passes by. The sight of him causes one civilian to set himself on fire out of fear. Even Alastor appeared to be on edge, meeting him during a walk.

Befitting his advanced age, Zestial is extremely patient and cautious, telling Velvette that they shouldn't take immediate action in spite of being given proof that Exorcists can be killed out of fear of the potential repercussions.

He is also shown to be rather compassionate to those he is close to, sensing something was bothering Carmilla and offering her an ear to vent her concerns and problems to.
