Zaj Quiroz

Zaj Quiroz (ザジ・キュイロス, Zaji Kyuirosu), also known by the alias Thanatos Crawford (サナトス・クロフオード, Sanatosu Kurofuōdo), is the main anatagonist of Genso Suikogaiden Volume 1 and Genso Suikogaiden Volume 2. Zaj is a survivor of Harmonian annexation who burns with hatred for his conquerors.

Genso Suikogaiden Volumes 1 & 2
Zaj had an unhappy childhood, due to the annexation of his country, Sanadia, by the Holy Kingdom of Harmonia. This left Zaj with a burning desire for vengeance against Harmonia. First, he entered the Howling Voice Guild to learn the ways of violence. Later, he would manoeuvre himself into the Rathke household, becoming engaged to Julie Rathke, earning him power. However, when Nash uncovered his plot, he attacked Zaj and fled, leaving him for dead.

Many, including Julie, thought Zaj dead. However, Zaj survived, and stepped back into the shadows, using the Howling Voice Guild to attempt to avenge his wounds at Nash's hands. He also became the head of Harmonia's Temple Faction. However, Nash returned to Crystal Valley and defeated Zaj in a final duel.
