Zote

Zote the "Mighty"
Zote the Mighty is an NPC/enemy that you can find around the world. He is mainly a "joke" character and doesn't really serve a purpose. He appears to be the same species as the player, whatever that may be, and wears a cloak and a nail, just like the player. His head is also very similar to the player's head, albeit with one "horn" being smaller than the other, a reddened face, and a mouth.

He is very grumpy and both an alpha and an inferior to you.

1st. Greenpath
The player will find on the top of the map, to the path leading to Howling Cliffs. Zote will be between the maws of a great Vengefly, the player has the choice to either save him or leave him. If saved he will tell his name and his mighty deeds as well as treat the player lowly. If the player saves Zote, he will appear on the next locations. If left there, after some time, once the player passes by at least the City of Tears, Zote's helmet, cracked, will be there along his Nail and cloak. Hitting the helmet rewards the player with the 'Neglect' achievement for letting him die.

2nd. Dirtmouth
Once the player saves him, he will be in Dirtmouth where once again he will talk to the player in lowly manner.

3rd. City of Tears
Zote will be found around on a corridor leading back to the storerooms of the city. He will forget the player and tell his name and his mighty deeds, treating the player like someone below him, just like the first time.

4th. Deepnest
He can be found around the middle of the map, in there, he will be stuck in spider webs(presumably from being captured). Once again the player has the choice to either save him or leave him to die, if saved he will do the same from first time, treat the player lowly.

5th. Colosseum of Fools
If the player kept him alive during all those events, he will be captured and found in the resting area of the Colosseum, he will brag about his skills and how his capture was intended. He becomes the final boss of the first trial. As a boss, he deals no damage due to his nail being made of a material made for shields, the player simply as to whack him until the fight is over. This will reward the player with the 'Rivalry' achievement for defeating him.

6th Dirtmouth (again)
After being beaten, Zote will return to Dirtmouth with the helmet of a warrior(which he most likely just took from somewhere) and brag to Bretta about his mighty and how he is the new champion, he will slander the player's reputation to Bretta, making her fall for him stead the player. Interacting with him allows the player to listen to him talk to what he calls "The Fifty Seven Precepts Of Zote. " which involves quite a lot of nonsense.

Trivia

 * Hitting Zote with the Dream nail during the fight at the Colosseum reveals his thoughts being "are you proud of me now father?"(needs to revise) and "I'll kill a thousand more...Will that be enough, father?". It is speculated that his parents, or at least his father, treated him poorly when he was younger.
