Zotikos is just about the smartest Asura you could ever meet.... Said no one ever his brother is partially to blame for this, Rooke loooooves feeding fake information into Zoti's brain, for example- 'Did you know the inquest are immune to germs?' 'Germs need light to see, if there's no light, they can't see you and therefore can't HURT you, this is the greatest of the Inquest's discoveries' 'I'm popular' 'You're gonna do great things with the inquest' 'Oh come on, I'd never steal your research~' and more complete bunk
