"Victory is MINE Baldy!
And if you had any hair I'd take that too!"
And if you had any hair I'd take that too!"
Hair: Zod's hair is a dark brown. It falls past the bottom of his head and reaches his shoulders. It is messy and unkempt.
Eyes: Zod's eyes are the same shade of piercing deep blue as Superman's.
Height: 6'3''
Weight: 197 lbs
Distinguishing Marks: Nope. He used to be scarred as all heck, but they've healed up now.
Appearance:
Zod has a very athletic frame. With perfectly toned muscles, he stands higher than most other lifeforms, perfect for glaring down at his subordinates. The perfect frame is offset by the ruggedness of Zod's face. He has the look of a hardened survivor, which he is. He isn't exactly clean shaven. Think a 5-o-clock shadow that's been growing for a couple of days.
In terms of clothing, he used to wear a uniform for prisoners of the Phantom Zone, but that burned up when he first escaped the Zone. Instead, he's taken some Earth clothes for himself, notably a red t-shirt, brown pants, and a black leather trenchcoat. It's a look designed to blend in with Earth's population, but also stand out from a regular crowd.

Personality:
Zod is defined by two character traits: his unrivaled arrogance, and his firm belief in the restoration of Krypton. The restoration of Krypton is his one ultimate goal, and he is determined to accomplish it, no matter who stands in his way. But he does not simply wish to restore Krypton. He wants to rule it. As such, he has developed a very dominant personality, demanding that those who serve him, obey him utterly, as he demonstrates in what has unintentionally become his catchphrase "Kneel before Zod". To make himself seem more important than he actually is, he sometimes refers to himself in third person.
He buries his true emotions deep under his arrogant persona. Regret for being unable to save his wife and son, silently regretting betraying Jor-El, though he would never admit it, and regret for the conflict he wrought with other Kryptonians. Conflict, he says, is necessary for conquest, so dismisses his personal conflicts as "casualties of war". He displays an acute xenophobic reaction to humans, but has no problem talking with other Kryptonians. The intelligent and daring general of the Kryptonian army has gone, and in his place is a veritable monster. He doesn't seem to have any idea that his actions inadvertently caused the destruction of his home planet.
"With great power comes great responsibility"
Powers:
Living Solar Battery-Zod's Kryptonian biology allows him to absorb energy from a yellow sun, which gives him his powers. The amount of solar energy he absorbs is tied in directly to his other powers, so the more he absorbs, the stronger he is.
Flight-Krypton had much a stronger gravitational pull than Earth. Zod is easily able to defy it. He can combine this with his super speed for even faster flying.
Super-Strength-Zod can easily lift any weight, and, if needed, throw around heavy objects. He can easily punch through most durable materials. Combined with his combat expertise, and Zod is a warrior to be feared.
Invulnerability-Zod is able to shrug off damage from many human weapons, to the point of being able to withstand the universe's most powerful weapons.
Longevity-Like other Kryptonians, Zod ages at a slower rate than humans. It is unknown if he can die of natural causes.
X-Ray Vision-Zod can see through most solid substances. The presence of Lead can limit this ability.
Super Hearing-Zod's ears are super-sensitive, and can pick up sounds from miles away and at pitches unhearable to humans.
Heat Vision-Zod is able to shoot threads of intense heat from his eyes, which can heat anything up to 200 degrees centigrade, and melt or burn anything.
Super Breath-Zod can blow breaths that can overturn a tank. By concentrating these into short blasts, Zod can encase his target in ice.
Super Speed-Zod is able to run at incredible speeds, even breaking the sonic barrier.
Eidetic Memory-Zod is able to remember what he sees, right down to the smallest detail.
Weapons
Kryptonite Blade-A dagger with a blade of pure blue kryptonite. This weapon is very much a last resort. as the blue K will take his powers as long as he's exposed to it
Strengths/Abilities:
Zod is one of the most effective military commanders in the 28 known galaxies. His strategic ability is legendary.
Zod is an excellent combatant, skilled in both armed and unarmed fighting styles.
Zod doesn't have, and doesn't want any limiters on his powers, meaning he can actually overpower a certain man of steel if necessary.
Weaknesses:
As with other Earth-stranded Kryptonians, Zod is vulnerable to the various forms of Kryptonite and the effects they produce on him.
The atmosphere of the Phantom Zone can strip Zod of his powers.
Under a red sun, Zod, and other Kryptonians, are powerless.
Magic is able to harm Zod.

History:
Zod was born and raised in the city of Kandor. From a young age, he was noted not just for a keen intellect, common to many citizens of Kandor, but for his ability as a leader. As the son of a military commander, this leadership skill was expected of him. When he was a teenager, he befriended a young man called Jor-El. Their friendship was very strong, as they found themselves sharing similar ideals: both wished to change Krypton for the better, but had different methods of doing so. Jor-El believed he could change the establishment from within. It was a view Zod shared, and when they came of age, Jor-El became a scientist, and Zod joined the military.
Over his service, Zod achieved the rank of general during what became known as the "Black Zero Insurrection". He even took a wife, Faora, and had a son, whom he named Lor-Zod. He cherished his wife and child, and they charished him in return, but they were lost in a battle which claimed the lives of many Kryptonian civilians. The trauma changed Zod forever. He began to believe that the Insurrection must be punished by any means, even if it meant going against everything he and Jor-El had built.
Zod began to commit many war crimes, including slaughtering innocents sided with the Insurrection. These crimes did not go unnoticed, and it was with a heavy heart that Jor-El consigned Zod to the Phantom Zone, but not before he was able to successfully sabotage Brainiac,Krypton's most advanced computer system. This act would, indirectly, result in the destruction of Krypton. Every moment for Zod from that moment on was a moment of reflection and regret. In due course, word spread throughout the one's inmates that Krypton had been destroyed. This destroyed Zod even more, but it built his resolve as well. He would find a new world which would become Krypton reborn.
