Zaro
View on GitHubZaro — Yellow Prime
3-Line Definition
Identity: Zaro is a teenage spark-being of light. On Earth, his light condenses into a friendly body. Flaw: He feels everything deeply. Fear, sadness, or pressure can dim him fast. Overuse causes Glow Burn. Power/Role: Zaro restores, shields, and pushes back danger with yellow energy — but every output drains him.Prime Status
Zaro is Y: Yellow Prime. Yellow is a rare Prime frequency. Zaro's light is not a "superpower with no rules." It is a living energy with limits and cost.
Look and Feel
Zaro's iconic look is bright yellow. He is warm, expressive, curious, and teen-like. He speaks like a teenager (not baby talk). His eyes show wonder, frustration, and stubborn courage.

What Zaro Is
Zaro is not a normal animal. He is a spark-being. On Earth, the spark becomes a form humans can understand.
Home Life
Zaro's home is in The Greenbelt (forest outside the city). He finds an abandoned old house and restores it using his light: warming wood, sealing cracks, clearing dust, making it cozy and safe.
Inside the house, Zaro keeps simple plans for gardens, paths, swings, ziplines, and tree houses. These are normal plans, not magic drawings. They show he is building a life.
Later, after Zaro changes the area, Mina and Kai nickname the place "ZaroLand."
Dome / House Shield
Zaro can create a dome field around his home. It has a clear "lock" sound when it stabilizes. It weakens when Zaro is emotionally low or drained.
Stamina and Cost (Glow Burn)
Zaro can do powerful moves, but he can crash. Glow Burn looks like dimming color, slower movement, shallow breath, and shaky focus. Even the dome can flicker when he burns out.
The NOT OVER Moment
When Zaro hits his lowest point, he can still choose defiance. When he writes NOT OVER, it shocks him like a heart restart. He surges back instantly — then beyond.
Overdrive look: Sparks fly off him like overflow. The dome slams back online. The world snaps back from gray into color.Core Trait
Zaro is "One for All." His light wants to spread outward. He protects others even when it costs him.
