Zachary Kronenwetter, or Zach, is a reoccurring character in the Buzzutsu Kaisen series. Zach is often chosen to lead exorcism missions for the Academy.
Appearance
Zach is a young man of average build. He has brown hair and hazel eyes.
Personality
Zach is a more reserved sorcerer, choosing to stay silent instead of voicing his (often contrary) views on the world around him. When he isn't singing, you can often find Zach helping himself to a hearty helping of beans. He is dedicated to his craft and dedicates himself to efficiency in his work.
Abilities and Powers
Buzzutsu
Zach possesses the Maestro Technique, which allows him to channel the vocal might of the Twilight Choir, an infamous group of cursed music users who in the face of death made a binding vow to live on as spirits bound to those who inherit the Maestro technique. This technique does not seem to be inherited by blood, so how and why Zach manifested this technique is currently unknown. Zach can channel the voice of the bass, baritone, tenor, alto, and sopranos, using their respective vocal ranges for a variety of effects. From powerful shockwaves to healing, the Twilight Choir covers a wide range of abilities.
Zach’s domain, Living Requiem is unique in that its sure-hit effect only occurs after the domain is closed. Upon activation of this domain, the entire choir is summoned to perform the opponent’s requiem, a piece of music honoring the dead. The domain deactivates after the chorus is summoned, but the music continues to play until the requiem ends, resulting in the demise of the opponent.
This domain, while seemingly very powerful, does have some caveats worthy of note. Firstly, the requiem's duration varies from person to person, with times ranging from three minutes to over fifteen minutes. Secondly, this period before the requiem's resolution does not take place within a domain, so the opponent can counterattack and interrupt the requiem. Lastly, the domain summons the entire choir, so Zach is unable to channel any member until they are finished with their performance. Even with the drawbacks of Zach’s domain, his abilities in combat are incredibly valuable.
