''Full Name'': Queen Zeal<br>

''Home Area'': [[Zeal Palace]]<br>

Queen Zeal is the queen of the Kingdom of [[Zeal]] and the mother of [[Schala]] and [[Janus]]. Married to [[King Zeal]], she seems to have been a benevolent queen who became psychotic after his death. Severely emotionally impacted by the event, the queen turned to the newly discovered power of [[Lavos]] for solace. Janus told Schala that she had changed and was "no longer their mother," meaning she was probably once kind and caring. Citizens ruminate that the [[Mammon Machine]] made her evil. She became addicted to the power, commissioning the [[Ocean Palace]] and causing the resulting [[Ocean Palace Incident]]. She had little tolerance for disdain or concerns over the possible dangers of the Machine.

While she apparently is saved from being with Lavos forever in the [[Lavos Timeline]], she remains in the distortion in the [[Keystone Timelines]], allowing her to form the [[Black Omen]] and begin her terror anew. There, she battles the party twice -- once inside, and once atop the structure. After she is defeated a second time, apparently she dies, or is reabsorbed by Lavos -- in any event, [[Gaspar]] notes that she can finally rest. In the end, she is remembered as a tragic woman, ruined inside by the death of her husband, and having succumbed to the bait of power and eternal life through Lavos.
