Zerita is Unten's sidekick and one of the main characters of That One Series With a Long and Uninteresting Name That I Do Not Wish to Remember. She is a Catonean.

History[]
Backstory[]
Zerita's history prior to her first game appearance remains relatively unknown. She is depicted as being part of Chief Dongorio's tribe, who she's taking care of, along with Mondo, as well as a sort of "frenemy" figure to Unten.
Unten: Mistaken Time[]
After a training with Master Mortua, her master tells her that she needs to be ready as she is the only one able to stop an upcoming time paradox. Master Mortua finally takes the decision to bring a Zerita from the future (so more experienced) to taking care of this threath.
When Doomulus Five appears with the intention to kill Master Mortua, as he knows too much, Zerita with the help of Unten brings the Master in a safe place by traveling between timelines. To be ready to fight the Doomulus, Zerita decides to be trained by another Unten from a future timeline.
Fissure (2014)[]
She seems to be on non-speaking terms with Unten due to the death of Chief Dongorio, which is accredited to Unten's failure to stop Doomulus Grime. However, in front of the Underground event, they appear to be on speaking terms, even working together.
However, Zerita leaves Unten to partner up with Boare as Unten begins to prove that he is the hero of the prophecy.
Zerita: Rebel Heart[]
In this timeline, Zerita was born on the Sarbaw planet where she was raised in a pacific group, the Pendulum Watchers. Following some unstable political events in the Orion Trade Federation (OTF), the intergalactic organization which Sarbaw is part of, the galaxies saw the apparition of violent movements who main to free their planet from the OTF, especially one in Sarbaw called the Hand of Might.
As a pacifist, Zerita realized how dangerous the Hand of Might can be. She attempted at first simple pacifism against them but she found herself attacked by their agents. Not seeking to indulge their conflict, Zerita sought help from her master, Himagha, on how to quell the Hand of Might. Himagha convinced her to go through the planet sharing her pacific message and this is how she started to go through the world with her friends, Dhurech and Phukumari, to share the Pendulum Watchers' pacific views.
Fissure (2022)[]
...
Fissure![]
Zerita has spent her life training with Master Mortua. One day, Zerita and her master encounters Unten who is on a quest to find the source of the tremors in his lands and to stop it. Master Mortua volunteers Zerita to act as Unten's bodyguard on their journey in exchange, and Zerita reluctantly agrees.
Since then, Zerita mostly follows an alternative path than Unten investigating her own way about the tremors, though she routinely checks in with them. Zerita discovers that the tremors have lead to civilization-destroying earthquakes around the globe in a pattern and quickly notice Unten about that. In front of this threat, Zerita joins Unten fighting along him their way through the truth: Doomulus Grime is harvesting their planet, Zeon, to get precious minerals and use a earth-quaking GigaDrill to do so. When Doomulus Grime uses his GigaDrill in their country, Zerita and Unten becomes separated by the earthquake.
Personality[]
Zerita is a chaotic female Catonea with selfish desires, but a strong and powerful heart, certainly caring for the ones she loves. She doesn't show emotions so-often. She is a tough girl, determined, concentrated and independent. She can be kind and generous to the ones she loves, but it's hard to be friends with her, since of her coldness. As so, she is ignored by others, which has made her loneliness go even higher.
In Zerita: Rebel Heart, she is depicted as very different from her other iterations. Here, she's caring and compassionate who is eager to help others. Rebel Hearth's Zerita has a friendly demeanour plus strange set of skills that making her stand out. Many of Zerita's old friends still hang out with her. She only uses her art martial skills to protect herself.
Appearance[]
Zerita has orange fur, with excess blue fur, along with sharp claws (which all Catoneans have) and brown hoove-like feet. Zerita also has purple eyes (in some of her appearance she also can be depicted with a red and a blue eye) and wears a blue mask on her head.
In the New Fantendoverse, she is later on shown with a left robotic arm and wearing orange and blue googles with a black strap.
Relationships[]
Unten[]
She is mainly know as Unten's sidekick, being the brave and chaotic character that Unten isn't. Their relation barely evolves through the games but in some installment she is shown as being more and more resentful toward Unten's tragic mistakes to the point to oppose him or abandon him.
Chief Dongorio[]
As a member of the tripe, Zerita respects Chief Dongorio as her father figure. When he died in Fissure (2014), she is devastated to the point of turning her back from her tribe and Unten.
Master Mortua[]
Master Mortua is Zerita's trainer, helping her to reach her full potential in combat and agility. He has big plan for her as he knows that she is the only one able to stop an upcoming threat.
Himagha[]
Zerita's master in Zerita: Rebel Heart. He is one of the Pendulum Watchers' elders and the only one that Zerita trusts when she is seeking for help. He convinced Zerita to go on a journey to show the world her pacific views.
Dhurlech[]
Dhurlech is one of Zerita's first friends to help in her goal of challenging the power of the Hand of Might in Zerita: Rebel Heart.
Phukumari[]
Phukumari is one of Zerita's childhood friends. Growing up under the tutelage of the Pendulum Watchers as well, Phukumari is much more passive than Zerita having focused her studies on inner focus and tranquility. Phukumari although having a different viewpoint from Zerita in terms of the nature of the Pendulum Watcher's goals, does agree with stopping the Hand of Might in Zerita: Rebel Heart.
Cameos and Non-Canon Appearances[]
Fantendo Kart[]
Up to Fantendo Kart Crystal, Zerita only made two apparitions as a playable character in the Fantendo Kart series, the first one being Fantendo Kart Dimensions and the last one Fantendo Kart: Duo Dash! where she is teamed up with Unten.
Without being officially explained, as Unten's driver partner we can determine that she is a Medium-weight driver.
Fantendo All-Stars Racing[]
Zerita appears as an unlockable racer, obtainable by completing the Beorn Cup as Unten. She has good speed, excellent handling, good power, horrible drift and poor acceleration. Her special move has yet to be confirmed.
Luxmors Bastion[]
Zerita appears in Luxmors Bastion as a Major Secondary character, she is explained as having been captured by the Luxmors Prison Force where it is discovered that she acted extremely hostile and so the Prison Force took it upon themselves to drug her and constrain her with hallucinogens that made her obedient to the Prison Force through a multitude of crystals. In addition to keep her controlled, the Luxmors Prison Force attached a number of mechanical armour to her that enhanced her fighting capabilities and restricted her mental capacity, surprisingly only one piece of armour is actually surgically attached to her being the Chesplate while othe others are merely held in place including a Tail Piece and Tongue Piece.
Zerita is the Fourth Boss in Unten's Storyline although makes her first appearance shortly after the second boss. She is also the third boss in Vitae's storyline.
