Zellard Headcanons Pt. 2

Zellard Headcanons Pt. 2

Some more headcanons for our favorite bastard 

- In Rutoh village, Zellard is the village baby sitter. He has enough patience to handle roudy children. Zellard often acts as their mentor as well. 

-Zellard’s ears are his weak point. If you can reach them, give them a good rub and he’ll be blissed out in no time. His ears flutter when he’s happy too.

-Though Zellard was once a powerful hunter, after retiring he sold most of his weapons and armor. Some items were given to old friends or displayed in his house, a distant reminder of his past. 

-Zellard doesn’t speak much about his past and keeps his emotions to himself. He only provides his opinions when he deems it needed. Instead Zellard prefers to speak on current matters as to deflect any unwanted questions about himself. 

-He was once more open to others, but that was long ago... Red was one of the few humans he ever vented to, the young human being one of his few friends in his later years. We know how that ended.... 

-Thanks to his long life, Zellard has plenty of skills. Drawing, poetry, and lute playing are some of the things he does in his spare time. Sometimes he plays music to the children to get them to sleep. 

-Zellard himself is a light sleeper in part due to his years as an ever-alert hunter, and because of bad nightmares. He drinks soothing herbal tea to help his nerves, but doesn’t dare bring his struggles up to anyone. Besides, they don’t need to know, right? 

-Lastly, Zellard has a worldly taste, but he will always come back to Rutoh village’s classic crullers. Crullers aren’t just Alwin’s specialty, but a village tradition, and a snack the otherwise fit and athletic Zellard can’t resist.
