Personality
Described by his former comrade,Haar, as "greedy," "corrupt," and "stupid," Zeffren planned to sell Leanne to a wealthy lord to make some extra money on the side of his work as a dracoknight. He has no respect forCrimea, seeing theirqueen and army as weak for needing the aid of Begnion to free themselves.[1] He also has no respect at all for Haar orShiharam because of their defection from Begnion.[2]

| “ | Zeffren: You... You Crimeans seriously believe you can withstand the might of Begnion?! Elincia: Crimea takes this sort of encroachment seriously. We will not overlook invaders in our domain. Release your weapons, and apologize for your discourtesy... Only then will we lower our own. Zeffren: You have quite a mouth on you... I won't be addressed in that tone by anyone. It's time to end this farce. | ” | — Zeffren, when fightingElincia in Part II, Prologue ofRadiant Dawn. |

Saw a pretty little heron and just had to have her, is that it? I could never decide if you were more greedy or more corrupt. Stupid was never in the question, though. Zeffren: Who do you think you are?! You're a traitor, just like Shiharam! The dracoknights spit on your name! Haar: ...Do they now? Well, here's your chance to try the real thing. | ” | — Zeffren, when fightingHaar in Part II, Prologue ofRadiant Dawn. |

Elincia: Marcia, stop. We cannot afford to start antagonizing the Begnion army. I am the queen of Crimea...
Marcia: But, Your Majesty! We can't just let these wyvern monkeys run rampant–
Elincia: And we're not going to. As long as they don't realize I'm the queen, we should be fine. Begnion dracoknights... You will only be warned once. Leave this area immediately! I serve the queen of Crimea. Trespassers on Crimean territory will be dealt with. No exceptions.
Zeffren: The queen, she says! The very queen that relied on us, the Begnion Empire, to free her nation. Imperial dracoknights are not frightened by soldiers so weak as Crimean pegasus knights.
