Zale is a priest of the Temple of the White Rat, specifically a solicitor sacrosanct with a rank of advocate divine. In [[Swordheart]], we learn that they worked as a clerk for five years before being called into the Rat's service.

In [[Swordheart]], we learn that they worked as a clerk for five years before being called into the Rat's service. They are described as being thin, with a graying or pewter braid, brown eyes, and "excellent teeth." As a priest and representative of the White Rat, Zale holds egalitarian beliefs about the individual right to respect, independence, and fair trial, holding no prejudice against gnoles or fellow humans, and helping when they can. | ||
They have a scientific curiosity about such wonderworker magic as that which keeps Sarkis in the sword. This is evidenced by an incident in Swordheart in which they, along with Halla, perform an experiment to see if urine vanishes as Sarkis does when the sword that binds him is sheathed. Zale is described as taking copious notes to determine the boundaries of Sarkis's confinement. They describe necromancy as "anathema in every civilized nation" and "the blackest of black arts," and are openly squeamish about murder. | |||
