-Zarel, foxx
Zarel Lewis is an old character from 2008 who has been revamped for my return to the Wiki User Wiki. He is a seven foot, three inch anthropomorphic dragon, making him possibly the tallest or second tallest of the Homestar Runner cast, depending on Strong Mad's height. He apparently has powers of controlling the wind, but said powers aren't seen as much. Zarel can, however, detach parts of his body and reattach them, however this seems more an annoyance than a convenience due to all the times he had been dismembered by something.
Zarel's relationship with the Homestar Runner cast is a mixed one; he usually is seen hanging out with Strong Bad or The Cheat, but shows a compassionate side towards Strong Sad, and apparently gave him the Horrible Painting.
Zarel has an email show in which for the first 20 emails, he used a computer called the Cappy DT8. However, it was blown up, along with his house, in a chemistry accident. Throughout then, Zarel had to rely on Strong Bad for computers until he finally got his new one (as well as his new house), the Roomy-Vac.
Zarel originally had a high-pitched voice courtesy of JohnNoHamsters, but since movie, would be voiced by Greg Ellis, known for his role as Ty the Tasmanian Tiger and Rocket Raccoon (Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3).

STRONG BAD: {offscreen, appears to be the cameraman} Alright, we don't want your medical profile!
ZAREL: Oh. Sorry about that. {nervous chuckle} Anyway, I'm a nice guy you can say, I check emails, I like partying and hanging with pals of mine, I really like a lot of things. Except spinach. I hate spinach. But I digress...on to the interesting stuff. I have the power to manipulate winds... {he waves his arm and makes the bedsheet flutter} And I can do this! {pulls head off without any pain or harm done} Taaaah...dah? Ah well, this was getting boring anyway.
{Zarel tosses his head at the camera. A smack, a cry of pain from Strong Bad, and glass breaking can be heard}
ZAREL: {distant} Crap! My horns are stuck in the ground again!
{The video ends}
