Zoph Bennett

A compassionate ironclad beetle of the South, working as the Podian Explorers' Association's lead captain. Makes up Team Glory with her partner in exploration, Okiri.

Though she was always the adventurous type, but repeated struggles within both explorations and home life would start to wear it down. All would eventually culminate into a deep depression upon losing her left wing in a battle against one of Arthodia's ravenous beasts. She would eventually be able to climb out of that deep pit upon the encouragement and support of Okiri, who came across the South's borders.

She would eventually earn the honor of becoming one of the Podian Kingdom's first exploration teams, alongside Okiri, and the two would contribute greatly to the knowledge of Arthodia's unexplored corners. However, much of her effort went into building up and encouraging the bugs of the Explorers' Association and the exploration teams that were under its flag, alongside the founder of the association. Her efforts eventually landed her to becoming the lead captain in charge of expeditions and exploration teams.

Zoph herself is a bug defined by compassion, and a general love and care of bugs in general. Some of the bugs of the exploration teams often view her as a mentor figure or, in some cases, an older sister. Much of her mannerisms stem from her prior struggles and wanting to help others through those same experiences, hoping to help recognize the passions of others. She is the more talkative of the two members of Team Glory, with Okiri only occasionally commenting. Regardless, the both of them get along well, with the both of them guiding one another along each other's paths.

• Made good friends with the Queen and is usually invited over to talk about expeditions for the exploration teams
• Highly proficient at swordplay, utilizing her nail-sword in combat and her durable left wing as a shield. Often sticks close to her comrades and keeps them defended from incoming attacks.
• Despite the memories it brings, she keeps her wing close as a reminder of overcoming struggle
