Zavok is a character that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. He is a Zeti who is the leader of the entire species, and specifically the Deadly Six. Hailing from the Lost Hex, Zavok and the Deadly Six were forced to serve Dr. Eggman, thanks to his use of the Cacophonic Conch. After Sonic disposed of the conch, Zavok and the others rebelled against Eggman, taking control of his Badniks and seeking world domination using his Extractor. Zavok and his team were stopped by Sonic, though not for good.
At some point, Zavok was taken under Master Zik's wing as the elderly Zeti's last disciple. Under Zik's tutorage, Zavok was taught in martial arts and became quite powerful. Many years ago, Zavok was brought into the Deadly Six when Master Zik formed the group, with Zavok's skills making him well-suited for the position as their leader.
In the Wii U version and PC version of Sonic Lost World, Zavok and the rest of the Deadly Six met Dr. Eggman, who used a Cacophonic Conch to enslave him. Begrudgingly, Zavok assisted Dr. Eggman in his scheme for world domination by capturing Animals for an army of Badiks. As Dr. Eggman later showed Zavok how to make Badniks, he revealed how the Deadly Six would help him conquer the world and defeat Sonic. Curious about Sonic, Zavok let Zazz fight him to learn more.
While in Windy Hill, Zavok and his team met Sonic, before coming with Dr. Eggman as he left Zazz to finish Sonic. Resuming the Animal hunt, Zavok spoke against Dr. Eggman's criticism of their efforts, only to be brought back in line by Dr. Eggman with the Cacophonic Conch. When Dr. Eggman later tested his unstable Extractor, Zavok secretly eavesdropped on the test, Zavok and the Deadly Six were later further scolded for their failures by Dr. Eggman with the Cacophonic Conch, only for Sonic to appear and knock the conch away. Now free, Zavok and his team took control of Dr. Eggman's Badniks and had them attack everyone present, before Zavok ordered his team to attack as well, effectively driving Dr. Eggman, Orbot, Cubot, Sonic, and Tails away.
Now free, the Deadly Six took control of Dr. Eggman's operations on the Lost Hex, but Sonic still opposed them. When Master Zik wanted to deal with Sonic, Zavok was reluctant to let him bother himself with that. When Master Zik returned, Zavok enacted his plan to destroy Earth with the Extractor and use the energy it harvested to make the Deadly Six stronger, as his revenge at Dr. Eggman, earning him the approval of his teacher. No sooner, Zavok tricked the lazy Zeena to go deal with Sonic. Zavok later contacted Sonic, Dr. Eggman and their allies to discourage them and mock Dr. Eggman before he was cut out. While studying Sonic, Zavok was inspired by Master Zik to make Sonic their slave by turning Sonic into a robot using what they had learned from Dr. Eggman. The Deadly Six quickly set up a trap for Sonic, only to find Tails caught in it when it returned. While annoyed, Zavok decided to use Tails to their advantage, before glaring at Zor who arrived to announce the failed capture of Sonic.
In Sonic Forces, Zavok, alongside Chaos, Shadow and Metal Sonic, was Phantom Copied by Infinite, Dr. Eggman's newest servant, through the use of his Phantom Ruby. This Phantom Copy was instated in the Eggman Army as one of the group's foremost soldiers. Zavok's Phantom Copy self soon after made its debut alongside the other three Phantom Copies to assist Infinite in defeating Sonic. Afterward, Phantom Zavok helped Eggman conquer over 99% of Earth.
Six months later, Phantom Zavok went to the Death Egg where Sonic was being held prisoner in order to banish Sonic into space as Eggman wanted. However, thanks to the Resistance disrupting the power onboard the space station, Sonic's restraints were removed just as Phantom Zavok arrived, thus allowing him to fight the illusionary Zeti. Using the Death Queen, Phantom Zavok engaged Sonic, but was ultimately defeated and faded away upon his defeat, although not before expressing irritation at losing to Sonic again.
Hundreds of Zavok's Phantom Copies were later present in the outskirts of the Eggman Empire Fortress where they took part in the final battle between the Eggman Army and the Resistance until all their sources were neutralized, ending the Phantom Copies' existence once and for all.
In Team Sonic Racing, Zavok joined forces with Dr. Eggman to defeat Sonic once and for all. He was hired by the scientist to steal the Ultimate Energy Engine from its creator, Dodon Pa. During his mission, Zavok was spotted by Big. Fortunately for him, no one paid attention to Big's observation. However, he was eventually noticed by the Chao near a racetrack, causing him to be spotted by Sonic and the other racers. When Dr. Eggman pretended that he had nothing to do with Zavok's appearance at the Grand Prix, he hastily invited Zavok to join Team Eggman, and gave him the Road Dragoon to drive in. Afterward, Dr. Eggman rebuked Zavok for being discovered. Zavok immediately after made Dr. Eggman even angrier when he revealed that he had not been able to find the Ultimate Energy Engine. Dr. Eggman thus hoped that Zavok would do better in the Grand Prix. After losing several races however, Dr. Eggman began to insult Zavok for his lack of driving skill, deeming him pathetic. Zavok, however, insisted that their opponents were just strong and that he respected that, before warning him to keep his mouth shut. Later, Dr. Eggman offered Zavok a task he was much more suited for: kidnapping Dodon Pa.
After Zavok kidnapped Dodon Pa and brought him onboard the Final Fortress, Dr. Eggman demanded to Dodon Pa that he handed the Ultimate Energy Engine over to him. However, Dodon Pa revealed that it was unfinished, making it useless. Furthermore, the racers had stopped racing, and without them producing Ultimate Team Energy, the engine could never be finished. This prompted Zavok to point out to Dr. Eggman that this was his own fault: by kidnapping Dodon Pa, he had brought the Grand Prix to a halt and stopped the racers from producing the necessary energy. To compensate for this, Dr. Eggman tricked Sonic and his friends into racing his henchmen so that Dodon Pa could capture the heroes' Ultimate Team Energy and use it to finish the Ultimate Energy Engine. As a part of Dr. Eggman's plan, Zavok was instated as one of the racers Sonic and co. had to beat. Despite Zavok's best efforts though, he lost. Zavok later took part in the subsequent races with the heroes alongside Dr. Eggman until Dodon Pa finally finished the Ultimate Energy Engine, which Dr. Eggman then stole and incorporated into his Death Egg. Afterward, Zavok took part in the villains' last race against the heroes onboard the Final Fortress. In the end, Zavok and his team lost, and the Death Egg ended up driving into the Final Fortress's energy core, forcing Dr. Eggman and his lackeys to escape the Final Fortress as it began to crash.
In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Zavok makes a cameo appearance as a part of the "Deadly Six" trophy which can be collected in the game.
In Sonic Runners, Zavok makes an appearance during the "Zazz Raid Event." Here, he convinced Zazz to simply keep on fighting after Zazz began to lose heart after several losses to Team Sonic. After Zazz had left, Master Zik pointed out to Zavok that Zazz would never be able to beat Sonic, no matter how hard he tried. Zavok noted that he was aware of this and revealed that he was simply using Zazz to collect more intel on Sonic so that one day, the Deadly Six would be able to destroy him once and for all.

In the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by Archie Comics, Zavok and the Deadly Six were enslaved by Dr. Eggman with the Cacophonic Conch, but was liberated by Sigma, a villainous robot from an alternate world. Zavok personally helped Sigma with his plan, only to betray him when he and the Deadly Six received power-enhancing armor from him. Zavok's attempts to control Sigma however, proved in vain as the robot took control of Zavok's mind using a device hidden in his armor and had him serve as one of his commanders until the unified heroes freed him. The Deadly Six's involvement would later be erased when Xander Payne erased all the events of Worlds Unite.
In the not-so-distant future, Zavok would meet Dr. Eggman again on the Lost Hex, only to be enslaved by the doctor once more.
One day at Zeti Castle, Zor reported to Zavok how the Eggnet was in chaos due to Dr. Eggman's doings on the world down below. The two were soon visited by a person named Dr. Starline. He introduced himself as an assistant to Eggman and requested that the Deadly Six help them with a current crisis that they were in. Starline let Zavok know that Eggman did not actually know he was on the Lost Hex, but told him that working with the Eggman Empire once again would give the Deadly Six an opportunity to make amends with the doctor, command incredible power and destroy Sonic. Hearing all of this made Zavok accept Starline's proposal. After the doctor left however, Zavok confided in Zor how Starline made a mistake and that they would capitalize on it.Zavok soon assembled the entire team to inform them of Starline's offer and how they would immediately betray him, though they all seemed to barely listen to him. Zeena initially showed dislike for the idea of going back to Eggman as it could very well be a trap. Zavok immediately snapped at this, saying that since they underestimated the doctor the first time, they were now well prepared. Zavok planned for them to punish Eggman for their humiliation, destroy Sonic for defeating them, and then destroy their world below.
Some time later, Master Zik praised Zavok for his initiative on letting the Deadly Six bide their time to let their anger and hatred fester, but warned that their vengeance against Sonic and Eggman must be exact. Soon, the duo were met by Starline, who told them that today's events cemented the fact that the team's help was needed. To prove that they could exert their will over machines, Zavok took control of a Motobugand has it drive around. Starline then told that after he made last minute preparations on his end, he would come back for the Deadly Six. After Starline left, Zik gloated as to how he was naïve and they would swiftly betray him. Zavok declared that they will use the Zombots to destroy Eggman, Sonic and the entire world below for merciless vengeance and absolute victory. Soon enough, the Deadly Six were brought onboard Eggman's Faceship via Starline's Warp Topaz.
Upon seeing the Deadly Six, Eggman immediately sent Metal Sonic to attack them. Zavok swiftly used his electromagnetism to control the robot and tauntingly reminded Eggman how they were able to control robots. Following this, Starline presented the Cacophonic Conch and blew into it to try and control the Zeti. Once Zazz saw that Starline had left an opening after using the conch, he headbutted him which allowed Zeena to take the conch and give it to Zavok. With Eggman and Starline defenseless, Zavok commanded Metal Sonic to attack them; however, Starline hurriedly opened a Warp Portal that transported him, Eggman and Metal Sonic away. Noting that they were now left with the Faceship, the means to create Eggman's Metal Virus, and the fabled Chaos Emeralds, Zavok decided to remove an Emerald and place it on his chest to empower himself with it. He was met with praise for his intuition by Orbot, who claimed that he and Cubot were too spineless to turn on the Deadly Six; after Zavok commanded that the robot take them to the largest known pockets of survivors, Orbot complied but not before telling them that he will log their orders to keep them well coordinated. With this, Zavok plotted out the Deadly Six's new plan; each of them would take one Chaos Emerald to be empowered by so that they can control thousands of Zombots around the world instead of random, shambling masses. He planed to bring utter devastation to the world that Eggman and Sonic had been fighting over for so long; once every living thing had been infected and neither party had anywhere else left to run, they would give them mercy of a slow end by the Zombots themselves. The Zeti set out into the world controlling many Zombot hordes, as well as terrorizing several uninfected citizens. While Zavok stayed in the Faceship, he stated to Master Zik that he was not resting on his laurels and would see to it that they infect everything from coast to coast by that night, and by tomorrow, the world. During this conversation, Zavok used his powers to lead a large horde of Zombots with the Faceship.
Zavok continued to question Orbot and Cubot about Eggman's whereabouts and had them search all of his bases, no matter how remote or obscure. They soon came across Angel Island, which Orbot began to lengthily explain about. Cubot interrupted, saying that there was an alert in the Metal Virus factory. While running down to the factory, Zavok believed that this may be Sonic sabotaging his plans and plotted to rip him in half. Later, Zavok piloted the Faceship toward Angel Island with a large army of Zombots beneath him. Despite the latter not being able to hear him, Zavok belittled Sonic over his failures of not being able to save everyone and prepared to bathe Angel Island in the Metal Virus, though not before complimenting its beauty. Suddenly, the lights went out along with the rest of the power in the Faceship; Rouge the Bat, who had been in hiding in the Faceship for a few days, had removed the white Chaos Emerald from the throne and escaped through the window. Zavok could only scream out in anger after her as the Faceship crashed into the ocean and on top of the many Zombots present. Despite this, Zavok still emerged from the rubble barely scathed. Enraged, he transformed into Giant Zavok, empowered by the Chaos Emerald, and shot a fireball at the island from his mouth. He then grabbed a handful of Zombots, charged his throw with the Chaos Emerald, and threw them directly onto the island's surface.
Zavok continued throwing Zombots and shooting fireballs at Angel Island until he saw Sonic, Metal Sonic and Silver flying toward him. He mocked them for the little resistance they could muster up against him and stated that he would continue his attack on the world until it grew sick and perished. The Zeti threw more Zombots at the trio but they dodged it. Zavok instead fired a fireball directly at Sonic and Metal Sonic, only for the latter to use his Black Shield to defend themselves. Seeing this, Zavok tried to grab them but his hand was frozen in place by Silver's psychokinesis. Sonic and Metal Sonic nearly reached Zavok's Emerald but the Zeti took a huge breath and blew them downward. Eventually, Sonic and Metal Sonic traveled back up Zavok's body, prompting Zavok to use his power to take control of Metal Sonic to stop him in his tracks. However, this did not stop Sonic as he continued to run up his body and reach the Chaos Emerald on his chest. Sonic managed to remove the Emerald but began falling. As Silver flew to him, Zavok tried to clasp his hands around the two in an attempt to kill them. However, in a blinding flash of light, Super Sonic and Super Silverappeared before him. Zavok still tried to fight them, but he was no match for Super Sonic and was beaten back into his normal form. The Zeti was flung backwards into the Faceship's debris.
Zavok recovered from the fight quite quickly and returned to the site of the now cured victims of the Metal Virus to attack them. Despite Creamtelling him that he lost and should go home, Zavok refused, declaring he would not be humiliated in defeat by Sonic again. Without the Metal Virus, his Zombot horde, or the power of a Chaos Emerald, he declared he would tear apart the word with his bare hands instead. Cream interjected, saying that Sonic would stop him but Zavok replied to this saying that she would not be there to welcome his return. When Zavok asked Cream for her last words, she called on Cheese to attack him. They were soon joined by Tangle, who wrapped Zavok in her tail. Zavok broke free but was soon grabbed by Vector and Espio, allowing Charmy to headbutt him. Zavok angrily threw them off before receiving a blow to his shoulder from Whisper's Variable Wispon. He was then finally stopped by Silver, who used his psychokinesis to hold him in place. Unable to break free, Zavok could do nothing but swear revenge on all of them. After this, Zavok was imprisoned in the maximum security wing of Everhold Prison.
While in Everhold Prison, Zavok would share the maximum security wing with Mimic, Rough and Tumble. Eventually though, Dr. Starline arrived in the wing with a hypnotized warden. There, Zavok exposed Starline as Eggman's protege to the warden, forcing Starline to put the warden to sleep. Starline then tried to recruit Zavok and the other villains for his team, but Zavok refused, believing that nothing would convince him. Starline, however, promised Zavok that he would make him the leader of their team and serve him so that they could take revenge on Dr. Eggmantogether since they he had used them both. Zavok, however, sensed that Starline was up to something and would try to get rid of him later. He then decided that he would use Starline to destroy Eggman and return to the Deadly Six, and then give Starline an appropriate punishment for trying to trick him twice. After Zavok made his deal with Starline official though, the warden sounded the alarm. Starline proceeded to stun the warden and took the keys to Zavok's cell. Freed by Starline, Zavok liberated Mimic with his electromagnetic abilities. Zavok also helped knock down two guards who ran into the wing. Once Rough and Tumble found themselves surrounded by guards though, Zavok sabotaged their Hover Wispons, which scattered the guards across the hall. After the villains secured the security center, Zavok ordered Starline to open all the cells and sabotage communications to plunge the facility into chaos, which Starline complied to. Zavok and his new crew then left Everhold Prison during the chaos.
After Zavok and his new team were brought to Dr. Starline's Repository, Starline told the villains that they would have to acquire Power Cores, special energy spheres used by various machines in the Eggman Empire. With them, they could increase their powers using special adapters for the next part of their plan, which was infiltrating an Eggnethub. Afterward, Zavok promised the group that he would lead them, but he required absolute obedience in return. Afterward, the group attacked an Eggman base containing the Power Cores. After getting rid of the front group of Badniks, Zavok ordered Tumble to throw Rough and Mimic over the gate. However, the two could not open the gate from the inside, so Zavok used his electromagnetic abilities to do it. He then jumped onto a truck that Starline drove into the base. As Starline drove the truck, Zavok talked to the doctor, wondering why he wanted to rely on machines so much when skillful warriors could do the same and more. He also told Starline that he no longer needed Eggman, as he had great potential and could surpass him. This struck a cord in Starline. When the villains then opened the base's warehouse, a mechanical tyrannosaurus rex attacked them. Zavok tried to take control of it with his powers, but the robot was protected from his influence. Ultimately though, Rough and Tumble destroyed the robot, and Zavok was impressed. Zavok then found a red Power Core for himself, the power of which he absorbed without the adapter mentioned by Starline. After loading the crates with Power Cores onto Starline's truck, Zavok and Tumble would leave a dent on the base's front grate that was supposed to resemble Sonic's Spin Dash in order to deceive Eggman into thinking that Sonic had raided the base. The group then departed in Starline's truck.
Later on, Zavok caught Mimic, impersonating Starline, in Starline's lab one night as he accessed the doctor's files. There, Zavok saw a video of Starline revealing his Tricore and his plan to get rid of all his teammates. However, Zavok told a curious Mimic that he knew that Starline had lied to them; he himself confirmed that upon discovering that the Power Cores could be harnessed through touch. However, he still needed to make sure that the Core Gear devices Starline had promised them were not traps. Checking it himself, Mimic confirmed that they were harmless. Nevertheless, Mimic planned on killing Starline, but Zavok had him go outside. There, he reminded Mimic that they needed Starline in order to gain access to the Eggnet. Once they had that, they would force him to comply to their demands, and then get rid of him. The next day, the villains were on their way to the Eggnet hub. Along the way, Zavok listened in annoyance as Rough and Tumble tried to think of a new presentation for them. However, he took it as a sign of growing kinship. He also pretended to praise Starline's plan to lure him into a fake sense of security. When they arrived, Zavok was equipped with his red Core Gear and took care of the local Badnik guards with Mimic. After stepping inside the hub, he also destroyed an Egg Knight, deciding that destroying the robot felt better than taking control of it, which Tumble approved of. Later, Mimic lost his patience with Starline while he worked on the central computer and put a knife to his throat. Zavok then revealed to Rough and Tumble that Starline wanted to get rid of them from the start. Zavok then forced Starline to give him control of all the Badniks in the region. Afterward, Zavok declared Mimic a free man after his files was deleted by Starline. He also allowed Rough and Tumble to have all the Power Cores back in Starline's lab. With their goals achieved, Zavok and the others decided that they did not need Starline anymore.
Just as Zavok and the others had Starline where they wanted him, the doctor used his Tricore to escape them, even as Zavok went after him. Ordering Mimic to stay at the main computer, Zavok took Rough and Tumble with him to chase after Starline. While Zavok searched the corridors of the building for Starline, he said out loud for Starline to hear that his plan was ineffective and that getting rid of his allies was needlessly cruel, both being from his arrogance. Realizing his words, he then concluded that Starline was no different from Eggman and just as incompetent. Soon after, Zavok found Rough and Tumble, immobilized by Starline's neurotoxin. Disappointed at them for not being able to deal with just one opponent, he left them alone. Zavok then returned to the main computer to have Mimic check the hub's monitors. However, Mimic was no longer there. Not surprised by this, Zavok decided to take the opportunity to look for clues to the whereabouts of the other members of the Deadly Six. However, he was interrupted by a transmission from Dr. Eggman, who was already on his way to the hub. Zavok wondered who could have ratted them out, but decided that it did not matter now. He then reminded Eggman that the Cacophonic Conch was lost along with the Faceship, meaning that Eggman had no way to subdue him. Eggman, however, just wanted to destroy Zavok, even if it meant losing his Eggnet hub. Considering this a waste, Zavok used the Eggnet hub's computer to order all the Badniks at the hub to fire at Eggman when he arrived. Despite this defense however, Eggman began bombing the hub. In response, Zavok used his equipped Power Core to protect himself from the collapsing building. Barely surviving the collapse, Zavok emerged from under the rubble after the attack was over, but his Core Gear had been destroyed. Injured, Zavok proceeded to take control of a nearby Egg Knight, which he used to retreat to safety so he could recover and make a plan to find the other Zeti.
After a long walk using a single Egg Knight as support, Zavok needed a rest. There, for a moment, he considered giving up, but he quick threw those thoughts aside in order to focus on his revenge. To this end, he decided to gather his pack. Using the Egg Knight, he connected to the Eggnet to determine where the nearest Deadly Six member was. Arriving at Riverside, he found Zazz, with whom he demolished the city with and forced a local doctor to treat his wounds. Amidst this, Zavok also learned about the Restoration, an organization which was rebuilding the damage done by Deadly Six. Arriving in Vista Viewafterward, Zavok and Zazz freed Zomom from captivity. While there, Zavok also caught one of the Restoration's soldiers and questioned him for answers. Zavok and the others later encountered Master Zik, who had found Zeena and Zor. Zavok praised his mentor and presented him with a plan to destroy all the cities that had resisted them. However, Zik thought his plan was too predictable. In addition, he pointed out that the Deadly Six were in the middle of the territory of well-organized and numerous opponents. Zik thus suggested that they should hit Restoration HQ to destroy the feeling of security, stability and hope among the people. Zavok agreed to this, but first decided to trick their enemies into thinking that they wanted to strike the cities they had tried to take over so they could double back and attack Restoration HQ while it was at its weakest. The Deadly Six thus began attacking Orchardville, thus leaving the Restoration to believe that their next target would be Sunset City or Winterburg.Zavok and his pack hit Restoration HQ soon after, which Zavok ordered his pack to demolish. While there, they defeated the local guards and caused a lot of damage. They then tried to get into the control room, but then Sonic showed up to challenge them.
Zavok proceeded to command the Deadly Six during their fight against Sonic. He also dealt with Tangle and Whisper, who fought from inside the control room; the former was incapacitated when Zavok grabbed her tail and tugged against the wall several times and the latter was dealt with when he sabotaged her mask scope with his powers. Eventually, Zavok managed to grab Sonic and push him into a wall, before leaving Zomom to hold Sonic. Zavok then intended to show the Restoration how he would tear Sonic apart, but then Tails showed up with his Zeti Zappers. Zavok tried to stop Sonic and Tails after the latter saved the former, and he almost succeeded, but was eventually incapacitated by a Zeti Zapper himself. Forced to surrender, Zavok and his pack were set to be deported back to the Lost Hex by Sonic and Tails. Before they got into Tails' Zeti Launcherthough, Zavok warned Sonic that this act of mercy would not go unpunished, as the Deadly Six would return for revenge. Sonic, however, countered this by stating that he would not surrender his principles out of fear, something which Zavok respected. Soon after, the Zeti Launcher took Zavok and the Deadly Six back to the Lost Hex. Arriving in the Lava Mountain Zone, Zavok and his teammates watched as the Zeti Launcher self-destructed and their Zeti Zappers deactivated. Most of the Deadly Six then complained about having nothing to show for their endeavor, but Zavok consoled them by saying that they would not fall for such tricks anymore, and as the Zeti who has achieved more than all the others who came before them, they would learn from this experience and eventually enact their revenge with more brutality than ever.
And he is reprised by Travis Willingham in the English dub and Jouji Nakata in the Japanese dub.
