Zali is a rough wolf who although appears to be cold, deeply cares about his friends and family. He dislikes strangers getting into his pack's affairs and is unwelcoming to outsiders in general. While he seems to approve of having his pack members working for the humans in return for food, he considers it a last resort to avoid starving, and often disapproves of Moss's overenthusiasm regarding it. He is very close with Cole, who seems to be his mate and most trusted friend.
