In the past, Zodyl unwittingly became part of a group that worshipped the Sphere's junk, after being dragged there along with his sister by their mother. Later, Zodyl discovered his true nature and seized control of the Raiders, transforming what was once a small band of thieves into an infamous criminal organization with the goal of collecting all the Vigilante Series artifacts and destroying the Sphere.

Zodyl is a tall, muscular young man with a mature appearance. He has indigo hair slicked back, with strands reminiscent of a raven's wings. Scattered gray streaks adorn the sides of his hair, and a single lock falls across his forehead. He has deep-set, dark purple eyes, adorned with purple markings on his face that resemble short stripes. He has thick, dark eyebrows and a generally expressionless face, which appears eerily shadowed in almost every scene he appears in.

He wears a white button-down shirt, with the top buttons undone, and a black belt around his waist tied with a navy blue cord in the shape of an ankh. Over the shirt, he wears the Watchman series coat. It has a large, thick gray collar with a black plastic strip attached to the collar straps, the ends of the plastic sticking out. The coat itself is made of dark, heavy fabric, with long, puffed sleeves with light-colored underarms, and is fastened with two white belts on each side. Much of the coat is held together with white pins and staples. He wears dark gray wide-legged trousers and tan boots laced with brown cords. He wears silver studs in the upper part of both ears.

As a teenager, he wore his hair short and unkempt, with bangs covering his forehead, and the same shirt, only neater. As a child, he looked similar, but his hair was spikier and styled upwards. When Mishra's power is activated, the mark on his face transforms into something resembling a tribal tattoo, and then into a kind of crystallized mask covering the left side of his face.

The gas mask that Zodyl wears in the contaminated areas resembles a surgical mask with black filters and supports.

Zodyl is a cold and calculating man who rarely expresses emotion. He presents himself as a respected and capable leader of the Invaders and has a great desire to learn more about the Sphere. He tends to insult and provoke his enemies, but he is very cunning and meticulous, and deliberately provokes Rudo into attempting to attack him, luring him into a trap that leads him, along with his fellow janitors, into an underground labyrinth.

Zodyl is a person with a penchant for research and experimentation, which he enjoys trying even when he's aware of the almost certain failure. He uses this as a way to learn, improve himself, and put his theories into practice. Zodyl is a very intelligent man who knows how to take advantage of any situation. He is also very calculating; he perfectly orchestrated a plan that resulted in the capture of all the Cleaners inside his garbage beast, leaving them no choice but to face the rest of the Invaders in combat.

High intelligence: Zodyl is an extremely intelligent individual, who demonstrates a great knowledge of the vital instruments, the Vigilante series and how they work.

Leadership: As the leader of the Raiders, each member is very loyal to him. He was able to earn Jabber's respect with his strength, and Noerde, during her time as a rookie Raider, admired Zodyl and was willing to give her life for his ambitions. Cthoni was enraged by Fu's betrayal of the Raiders after he joined the Cleaners, and she made sure he was punished along with the Cleaners.

Mastery of Strategy: Zodyl has proven to be an excellent strategist, devising complex plans to achieve his objectives. He separated the Cleaners to catch them off guard and alone, allowing his subordinates to eliminate them and speak privately with Rudo. He patiently waited for the information broker to be out of service so his subordinate could steal the information and engage the Cleaners when they were exhausted after their battle against the King of Tori. Even if his plans fail, he knows how to make the most of the situation to move forward.

Enhanced reflexes: Zodyl seems to have reactions fast enough to even activate his Vital Instrument before Kuro gets in his way.

Improved Speed: Zodyl was shown to be extremely fast, so much so that it often disappeared after leaving Bundus on the ground.

Mishra's Transformation: A coat that is part of the Vigilante series that allows Zodyl to mutate his body into any form he desires, more or less depending on what he eats before the mutation.
Appendage generation: Zodyl can create and control pointed appendages to attack opponents.
Appendices of Mishra
Flight: Zodyl can develop wings to fly long distances and grants versatility in battle.

Zodyl's body odor is powdery and becomes "dangerous" if he forgets to brush his teeth.
Due to his impoverished childhood, and later the abilities of his Life Instrument, Zodyl is accustomed to eating disgusting and/or living things, doing so without reacting, as if they were any other edible or orthodox food.

Location: World surface
Inhabitants: Humans/Terrestrials, Garbage Beasts

Terra, known as the Pit by the Sphere people, is the surface of the world, a wasteland with a mostly toxic environment, infested with Garbage Beasts due to the constant rain of garbage from the Sphere.

At least 150 years ago, a large number of humans departed for the sky aboard the Sphere, leaving the rest of humanity on Earth. During this time, the Sphere people believed that no one remained alive on Earth, and they called it the "pit," generally understanding it as a vast garbage dump.

For 150 years, the garbage dumped from spheres onto the ground transformed into Garbage Beasts. The polluted air, as well as the danger they posed, pushed the ground's inhabitants into selected safe zones, where walls were erected and massive vents and filtration systems were built to keep them clean.

The level of pollution has drastically altered the landscape. Growing flowers is now extremely difficult, making them rare and expensive, though artificial flowers are sold for aesthetic purposes. The snow in the Northern District is contaminated and dangerous to the touch, making winter a deadly time. Contaminated areas have formed entirely new biomes, such as the Penta Desert, composed of shredded garbage, and the Tori Jungle, where plants have adapted to the pollution.

The land is divided into four districts, containing both safe and contaminated zones. Each is quite spread out, and the southern one is a two-day drive from the cleaners' headquarters.

Northern District:
The only place on Earth where it snows, and said to be the closest to the Sphere. The snow is toxic, so winter in the Northern District is said to be dangerous.

Southern District:
Two days' journey from the Cleaners' headquarters, the Southern District is home to Tori's No Man's Land. The Southern District is known for its annual Doll Festival, where the Dowders, who consider dolls and other toys vital instruments, display them.

Eastern District:
The Cleaners' Headquarters is located here, and Team Akuta lives there in their free time. Mono, a no-man's-land, is nearby, and it's where Rudo first landed. A larger region, known as Genia, is located in the East District.

West District:
Little is known about the West Side for now, but Hell's Watch has authority there.

Cities covered:
Canvas Town
Kamutari district
Hole Town
Creapye
Kremmos Village
Andio

Contaminated area:
The contaminated zones are the most dangerous areas closest to settlements. Here, garbage beasts breed, and humans can't survive 15 minutes without a mask. Large amounts of garbage can be found, and occasionally, humans scavenging for materials and corpses to sell, especially orbs.

No man's land:
The No Man's Lands are the most dangerous and unexplored of the three areas, as there are only six of them. A human would die almost instantly in these zones, and the garbage beasts that form here are said to be a challenge even for donors.

Currently, only three no-man's-lands are known.

The Raiders are a major criminal organization on Terra. They are a group of Donors, and their goal is to collect the entire Vigilante Series and destroy the Sphere.

Originally, the group consisted simply of thieves, but over the years it became involved in more sinister conspiracies. All members of the group are Gifted and carry purple torches that signify their affiliation. One of the group's main objectives is to find more Sphere Ones like Rudo to learn more about the Sphere.

The raiders are divided into teams of two or three and are carefully selected so that their vital instruments are as compatible as possible with each other.

Front line
A team made up of the most necessary and powerful members of the Raiders; it is a higher rank within the organization and this rank means that they receive orders directly from Zodyl and undertake missions on their own, such as when Bundus was ordered to find the Choker Maker.

Raiders
Each member of the Raiders is extremely loyal to Zodyl for different reasons, which vary from one to another, whether it be respect, admiration, or fear. Zodyl values ​​his followers and even praises their skills; he is able to effectively utilize each one's experience to achieve his goals.

Cleaners
Zodyl doesn't care much for any of the Cleaners, aside from Rudo, due to his connection to the Sphere. Initially, he was under the impression that the Cleaners were weak, but his opinion changed after they managed to defeat all the rookie members he was considering letting join the Raiders. Although he no longer underestimates the Cleaners, he still doesn't consider them a serious threat to his objectives, as he didn't mind them keeping pieces of the Watchman series, since they could always retrieve them at any time.
