"Valérie, Valérie...what are you up to on your travels, dear brother? Have you found what you were looking for, I wonder?"

It was another day of the snow-white feline musing to himself as waves of liquid plastic sloshed against yellowed cliffs. As Zone 0's guardian, the Judge managed to keep things calm and without danger. After all, compared to the others which could be reached through the Nothingness, there wasn't anything worthwhile here. Unless one wished to explore the island's one building filled with block puzzles.

The only living thing that had passed through recently was the Batter. It was such a shock to the cat at first, he'd thought the stoic man to be nothing more than a mere hallucination. For you see, there couldn't be any other living things in Zone 0 besides the Judge. It was thought to be impossible.

Yet there'd been the man a mere few hours ago on the south dock, where he took his first steps into the new world. One of few words, the Batter explained to the listener at his feet:

I'm on a holy mission to purify the world.

"A noble quest, indeed," the cat spoke again to no one else but the breeze. "I do hope the 'savior' lets me know if he crosses paths with Valérie. And now, the sun begins to set..."

The Judge

A white cat with a hefty head and an equally huge grin. Not taking much interest in the Batter's "mission," the Judge is however aware of the voice that occupies his head occasionally. If only he could find out just what that voice is... Previously residing in a place known only as Zone 0, the Judge lived in peace with his brother, Valérie. As the old saying goes, nothing good ever lasts. While he prefers to avoid violence, this feline will break out Competences that target the arteries and nerves of an opponent in push comes to shove.
