The Zaar (age: ???)

A malevolent and incorporeal spirit of wickedness and chaos that delights in practical jokes, the misery of others, and frustrating the goals of others. It will take time out from its ultimate goal to torment others our of sheer malice, but is also highly intelligent and cunning and capable of great subtlety when it wishes. A being without form or flesh, it can possess anything with an anthropomorphic shape given the proper circumstance. Its first vessel in the story is a waxwork of Eamon de Valera; its second is Hazel herself. The Zaar’s ultimate goal is a combination of revenge and a twisted desire to do what it sees as good: to “tug loose a thread” in the ordered world, creating a breach that will inevitably widen and bring forth a new reign of utter chaos it is convinced will inevitably lead to a more equitable world.

The Zaar disdains the touch of any living being, as the trauma of its creation may be made manifest to anyone who touches its possessed form. The Zaar’s spirit is the result of a human’s death and unfulfilled soul grinding in the darkness between worlds, festering like a wound until all that remains is a primal urge for unchecked vengeance and terror.
