Raziel

Raziel is Zone's twin brother from an alternate timeline. Though they are twins, Raziel looks a lot older than Zone is. Raziel was brought into the current USA timeline via a malfunction within the Time Agency, where there was a rip through Raziel's timeline, and the USA's timeline. His presence in the USA's timeline affects Zone, as in Raziel's timeline, he actually took Zone's life in exchange for a chance to exist, meaning that if Raziel exists, Zone isn't supposed to. Notable changes within Zone whenever Raziel is present are that Zone's body slowly starts to disappear, eventually to a point where Zone disappears entirely, possibly sent to the CyberVoid.

Raziel's personality is vindictive and snakey - almost the same as Zone's. He harbors a strong hate towards the timeline he comes from for reasons unknown, and his ultimate goal is to stay in Zone's timeline. Raziel has grey hair, wears a blue cape, and wears a ribbon unlike the bowtie Zone wears. Interestingly, Raziel has a strong hatred towards Kill, since Kill was the finished product of the Mind Distorter, whereas Raziel was simply a prototype. His Mind Distorter abilities seem to be weaker than Kill's, though it is still a very potent power. He hinted to Zone that he gave him Mind Distorter abilities, claiming that Zone's disappearing body is a result of a stronger invisibility power Raziel gave him. However, this is not the case according to Kill, as she doesn't believe that turning invisible is in any way related to the Mind Distorter, as its power is mainly psychological related.

Background
Main article: Tales of Phantasm

In Raziel's timeline, he was in the science laboratory with Zone, when a group of scientists were working on Project:Zone - a biological warfare project aimed to quell the efforts of Nightmare. During Raziel's timeline, Zone and Raziel were twin cells. However, Zone sadly enveloped his twin and Raziel was thought to have died. Luckily for him, a small cell of Raziel was surviving in Zone's developing body. Project:Zone then became a case of fetus in fetu, where Raziel served as a parasitic twin, feeding off non-vital organisms and nutrients within Zone's body. Eventually, Raziel grew to a mature stage and burst out of Zone's body - taking Zone's life in exchange for a chance to have a life.

However, in the USA's timeline, the same events did happen, though Raziel did not take Zone's life. Despite that Raziel was mature enough and ready to explode out of Zone, he never did simply because he claimed that he couldn't take something that was once taken from him. Raziel was brought into the USA's timeline via a malfunction within the Time Agency, where there was a rip through timelines. Raziel exploited the rip and entered the USA timeline, as he found out that he killed his brother when he was born and wanted to meet his only family member.

Once in the USA's timeline, Raziel began to put his time and effort to work, by researching every single character on Antarctica. Though he found that many of the creatures here were penguins, he did find someone that looked similar to him - which was Zone. Raziel then attempted to locate where Zone was by asking several penguins about him. When asked, penguins were frigtened, as Raziel arrived a week after the dreaded Yoenah Massacre involving the King of Sorrow, which was the talk of the whole entire continent. Raziel liked the idea of having a brother that could become such a powerful being, and, after doing some research, he found out that his brother would most likely be in the Darktonian Realm - a place where the most vile, wicked creatures congregate to torment the innocent penguins of the USA.

Shortly after his research, Raziel arrived at Zone Fortress. He met up with Zone, which kicked off the events in Tales of Phantasm.

Involvement
Raziel has been involved in the Maverick war, where Tortugadesetas was kidnapped by Nightmare's Army. He was the one sending communications to John Coo and the Mavvs, helping their army defend themselves against the forces of Nightmare. Raziel comes off as an excellent strategist, though he has also taken an interest in engineering as well. He harvested the parts off a Avatar Warmech V2 during the firefight at Maverick, his plans with those parts are currently unknown up to this point. However, despite the strategic help Raziel gave to Maverick, Tortugadesetas was captured by Zone and sent to Nightmare. Raziel and Zone's only goal for that fight was to make sure the X-Virus did not spread and create more subordinates for Nightmare's army. However, since both Zone and Raziel are aligned within Nightmare's syndicate, to prevent suspicion Zone captured Tortugadesetas, using him as a alibi as to what he was doing the whole entire time throughout the fight.

In regards to his brother, Raziel seems very loyal towards Zone, seeing as Zone gave him his desire to exist within Raziel's timeline. He also seems to have a small variety of powers, such as firing powerful red bolts from his eyes. Interestingly, Raziel is the only Mind Distorter character that can do this - it seems that ability was taken out when later versions of the Mind Distorter were being made.
