Sacrifices

Last updated 2026-09-09

Sacrifices are a type of Enemy the player can encounter during combat in Zenless Zone Zero.

Description

Sacrifices are a special type of Ether Active entity capable of operating outside the Hollow. Their creation appears to be the result of human manipulation.
On the eve of the old capital's fall, the giant hand that kidnapped our teacher possessed the power of a Sacrifice. Years later, we sensed that same ominous presence again while searching for the prototype with Belobog Heavy Industries.
Years ago, Landon, the Exaltist leader active in the Janus Quarter, created a medicine that could transform living people into Sacrifices, though its effects were highly unstable. Judging from the Bringer incident, the Exaltists' technology to create Sacrifices has clearly improved.
There are still many unsolved mysteries surrounding the Sacrifices.

Profile

Sacrifices are a special type of Ether Active entity capable of operating outside the Hollow. Their creation is the result of human manipulation.[1] They were once people that have trascended their humanity by attaining the Refinement sought by The Exaltists. There is only one known way to turn into a Sacrifice: by injecting oneself with Sacrifice Serum.[2] Landon created the early version of the Sacrifice Serum, however it was still unstable.[3]

Sacrifices have a "core" which, alongside the Sacrifice Serum, can be used to create Sacrifices that obey orders.[4]

Sacrifices resemble Ethereals, but unlike corrupted entities, they retain their sense of self and their memories,[2] making them extremely dangerous enemies, with the strength and Ether affinity of Ethereals paired with the cunning and strategical knowledge of humans.
