Art style: Pixar-like 3D.
Full-length view, the entire figure visible from head to feet, standing upright, centered — Zed, a lean young man in his early twenties, Hardin's college friend who loves gambling and arguments. He has a sharp, angular face with a smug confident smirk, quick mischievous hazel eyes, raised eyebrow, and a short stubble along a defined jaw. Tousled dark-brown hair swept to one side, a small silver ear piercing. Slim athletic build, slightly cocky slouched posture, weight on one leg, one hand casually flipping a poker chip, the other tucked in his pocket. He wears a fitted dark-grey henley with sleeves pushed up, a few forearm tattoos, slim black jeans with a studded belt, and scuffed brown leather lace-up boots. Setting: a sunlit red-brick university campus courtyard with a neat green lawn behind him. No on-screen text.
