Zhil was a long time Fury executive and creator of Wrath. He was best known for his zealous loyalty to his alliance and remained a prominent figure on the boards until Round 8.
After Fury, Zhil was co-creator in Eclipse and resided in a 'trusted' position within 1up until he grew more active to take on more of the responsibilities to go with a HC position within 1up.
He never finished the Planetarion story he was working upon.
He achieved his one time top 100 planet in round 9, at rank 75 - Ktherea of Ithil. Whilst his next best planet was ironically enough during round 4.
Duke Leto about Zhil:
Zhil's loyalty to Fury (as misplaced and twisted in itself as that is..lol) is a function of his sense of self, ingrained to the point where he has become an unintentional and willing prisoner of it, much in the same way as I with hirr - the first and last alliance I ever belonged to through 8 rounds.
Due to the fact that his bag was loyalty and honor to Fury, anything he did in Fury's name, even if viewed as treachorous or dishonorable in the eyes of anyone else, was insignificant when held in context to his personification of Fury and the honor there derived. It was the perfect suit of armour, making Zhil bulletproof to almost any assault on his person... to this very day I see.
The fact that he pledged his loyalty to one of the most revered and reviled alliances in PA history makes his loyalty all the more significant in his own eyes and thus increases the stature of his ego in terms of sense of "self" in planetarion.
Outside of the megolomania that has evolved from this titanic persona that Zhil has manifested in himself, he is still a good guy in my book, but for you who see him as the standard bearer of Fury, an apologist and zealot, know that I view him in a far gentler and sympathetic light.
I'll leave you with a quote that perhaps impresses upon you the currency in character that Zhil has worked so hard to amass a fortune in over his tenure, that installs in him the authority and grudging respect he commands:
"Histories are more full of examples of the fidelity of dogs than of friends." -Alexander Pope
Never shall it be an affront on my character to have such a dog as Zhil as my friend.
