Zak is one of the main characters in Dragon Tales. Zak is very serious and easy-going, but often gets annoyed very easily. He tends to be the most reluctant member out of all his friends, mainly because he is very cautious about the activities he does with them, especially those proposed by his sister. Unlike his sister, Zak is notably more thoughtful, but also very pessimistic about the problems he faces throughout his encounters. He often goes as far as suggesting that he and his friends are doomed in many of the situations they encounter in their adventures. However, when his sister loses hope, he tries to cheer her up by expressing that he will not stop until he has retrieved whatever his sister has lost, whether likes it or not. As demonstrated many times in the series, Zak tends to be a neat freak, and often complains about how sloppy Wheezie is. Zak tries to act like a genius in front of his friends, however, many of his suggestions are often turned down in favor. Because of this, they often argue a lot throughout the series. Despite being the polar opposite of his sister, he shares a liking in music with her. Whenever he cooperates with his sister, their dragon badges will glow simultaneously. And whenever he accomplish a daunting task that proved to be a challenge for him, his badge may glow independently.
