Zachary Rosenrune

Because Zack is uncommitted to drinking the Bloodright of Leto and become a fully powered werewolf, his mother Ada sent him to America to finish his schooling, where he started attending Manalith Academy in Mystic, CT as a second year student. He performed fine with his schooling, averaging a high B to low A grade in all subjects.

When not at school, he spent quite a bit of time with his older brother William, and trained with him at William's Fencing School in Westerly, RI. Because of this, Zack is quite good at swordsmanship, knowing advanced levels of both Fencing and HEMA. During the following summer, Zack was recruited by the The Foundation on recommendation from his older brother. He successfully went through the summer program and is now a field agent with the organization. He does missions on the weekends whenever they come up.

In America there are not a lot of werewolves, and most are depowered thanks to a major past event. The reason Ada sent Zack to America was to isolate him from other werewolves. Zack is significantly more physically powerful than anyone around except certain vampires and he know it, but he will lose this strength in a few years if he refuses to drink the Blood of Leto. Zack has seen how much weaker his brother has become since refusing the bloodright and doesn't want to end up like that.

On the other hand, Zack was present at his older sister's bloodright. Iris drank the blood of Leto, succumbed to the Lunatic Cry, and almost immediately went feral, murdering several nearby non-werewolves. Iris was captured and contained, but never recovered from her desire to kill. The opposite states of his two siblings has made him quite indecisive about what to do. He is set to do the ritual next year.

At the start of his third year in highschool, Zack is unsure what to do. Luckily for him, there is no shortage of rogue spirits and other entities roaming the Earth and the Foundation has no shortage of missions for him to take destroying those things. Zack would rather do that, or literally anything else then dwell on family drama for now.

Zack used to watch a lot of anime with Iris in the past. Like most teens, he has played various videogames, some quite excessively, with his favorite being souls-likes. Zack also loves his history, especially when it comes to stories about legendary weapons. Whether it's King Arthur's Excalibur or a more obscure sword like Rhydderch Hael's Dyrnwyn, Zack has read about them all and he owns numerous books on the subject. History also happens to be Zack's favorite subject in school, though he could do with less of Dusk's long monologues about the past as if she was there...

Zack has always loved swords and sword fighting. His brother taught him both Fencing and HEMA (Historic European Martial Arts). Zack was a member of Manalith's Fencing Team, which still annoys several vampires. When Zack turned 16, he received William's Sword Dimension as a gift. Zack has filled the room with numerous swords already in just over a year, including the 'Legendary' Knightbrand, as well as various longswords, scimitars, rapiers, and sabers.

Most of the swords that Zack uses in combat when on DDDF missions are quite heavy, often far too heavy for the average person to pick up, let alone swing without tearing their muscles apart. Zack is very skilled with swords, but often he just hits the problem really, really hard, and that's usually more than enough. He does it to the point that he is criticized in mission assessments for it.

Out of combat is a different story. When doing sports in general, Werewolves (and other bloodlines with superhuman strength) have to take a potion that lowers their strength and speed to a maximum threshold, making the contest more about skill than physical ability. Even then, Zack has been to regional competitions and has taken home several titles.
