Zestial is a lanky, spider-like demon with dark gray skin and lime green eyes. He wears all-black clothing, with a pitch black cloak that covers most of his body. When Zestial unfurls his cloak, his eyes glow and the top pair gain red irises.

At the front of his cloak is a large black spider with lime green stripes on its eight legs, as well as lime green eyes and lime green on its back. The interior of his cloak is lime green with a spider web pattern and four red spider legs extending across the cloak.

He also wears a distinctive big black top hat with a light grey patch at the front, along with a gray skull and a lime green-and-maroon-striped feather on the right side.

Zestial speaks in an archaic dialect redolent of early modern English. He has a very sophisticated way of speaking, and often keeps his temper rather than get easily frustrated, as the case when Velvette mocks him. However, despite his overall demeanor, he can be slightly petty, loudly sipping his tea to cut Velvette off mid-sentence before opposing her proposal to fight back against the Exorcists.

His reputation is such that demons other than his fellow Overlords are terrified of him, hiding or cowering whenever he passes by. The sight of him causes one civilian to set himself on fire out of fear.

Befitting his advanced age, Zestial is extremely patient and cautious, telling Velvette that they shouldn't take immediate action in spite of being given proof that Exorcists can be killed out of fear of the potential repercussions.

He is also shown to be compassionate to those with which he is close, sensing Carmilla's tension after an Overlord meeting and offering her an ear upon which to vent her concerns.

Abilities Demon transformation - He can change into a stronger demon form. Conjuration - Zestial is seemingly able to create objects out of thin air, doing so to produce a full cup of tea and plate during the Overlord meeting. Bioluminescent generation - Zestial's eyes, and parts of his spider accessory, can glow when he unfurls his cloak. Skillset Musical talent - He is adept in singing. Intelligence - Presumably due to his age and how long he has spent in Hell he has vast intellectual ability. This was demonstrated during his opposing statements against Velvette's proposal to enter war against the Exorcists, because despite evidence an exorcist was killed they do not know how it was killed, explaining that if they go to war without any information on how to kill Angels then they would destroy all of Hell for rebelling. He, along with Velvette, eventually deduced that Carmilla was responsible for the Angels death due to how she was acting during the meeting, making him confront her about it in private and comfort her.
