Appearance
Zagreus has quite the attractive appearance. Though his true chronological age is unknownāTartarus doesnāt care to track time and gods age weirdāthe Prince of the Underworld appears to be a fine late teens or early twenties in physical looks. Despite his godhood, Zagreus stands shorter than many of the other gods, somewhere around 5'8" give or take an inch? But heās built as fuck, muscular and athletic from all his training to be a warrior under the famed mortal hero, Achilles. Broad shoulders, V-shaped torso, strong arms and legs, heās got all that perfect Grecian sculpture body going on. Being in the company of gods all his life, heās used to beings whose physical beauty is unmatched; Zagreus is no exception to this is and is quite the hunk. His features are quite handsome and pleasing to the eye, with a youthfulness to his face that reminisces of innocence and a firmness that leaves no surprise in his strength.
Color-wise, Zagreus stands out as Prince of the Underworld pretty clearly. Heās light-skinned, of the sort that suggests he hasnāt seen the sun. Ever. But the flames of the underworld at least give him a slight ashen tint so he still looks healthy? This complexion is also in part due to his quarter-mortal body, in that he has red blood running through his veins, instead of the golden Ichor the pure gods possess. He was born with heterochromia, meaning his eyes are two different colors, having inherited an eye color from each of his parents. His right eye is black with a red iris, from his father, Hades, and his left eye is white with a green iris, from his mother, Persephone.
Zagreus also sports some rich black hair in a decidedly non-Grecian style, in that itās spikey like an anime character, and pretty unruly. He still manages a style, with it being cropped short in the back and then swept forward from the back/top of his head to the front, where it juts out in many spikes that have a group angle to the right. Oh, and his feet are on fire. Literally. Described as āflame-lickedā and āfire-dippedā, they are constantly burning and glow in a gradient going from orange at his ankles to hot yellow at his soles. Itās hard not to notice them (makes hiding a pain) and he can't really feel certain textures, such as the surface of a carpet. He normally singes whatever he walks on and leaves behind burning footprints with each step. Luckily, his footprints only last for a second or two, flickering a few flames before fading, preventing him from setting fires wherever he goes. Of interesting note, when heās standing still, his feet appear not to burn anything at all, though truthfully, the inconsistency may simply be for gameplay logic.
His clothing is classically Grecian, with a black and red chiton (a form of tunic) that fastens over his left shoulder via a large bone pauldron in the form of three canine skulls (reminiscent of best boy, Cerberus). The chiton sweeps in a curve from his shoulder to his right hip, leaving his neck, collar, and the majority of the right side of his torso bare. Itās tied around his waist by a belt of bones, metal, and three skulls, and the chitonās hem falls around his upper thighs. For accessories, Zagreus wears a circlet of flaming leaves on his head in chaplet fashion and a few bands of red material and gold bracelets on his arms. A simple pair of dark red leggings covers his legs from his hips down to his calves (though heāll opt to leave these off during more casual encounters) and he wears a pair of metal greaves with skull kneepads over his shins. Finally, thanks to his flaming feet, he opts to always go barefoot, due to burning any footwear he might try on.
