* EvilSmellsBad: They ''really'' stink, apparently due to bad hygiene.
* HelpingHands: Centauri shoots the arm off of the Zando-Zan impersonating the drifter. Despite this, the severed arm manages to still pick up the Zando-Zan's dropped gun and shoot back, (nearly) fatally wounding Centauri.
* HuntingTheMostDangerousGame: Their primary motivation for hiring themselves out as assassins. The second one (who impersonates the policeman) even considers remaining on Earth to keep killing humans [[AllThereInTheManual according to the novelization]] because "there is good sport to be had here."
* KillAndReplace: Their standard M.O. is to go to a planet, find a native, kill them, and impersonate them. The first Zando-Zan does this to a drifter. The second one picks a cop.
* NoBodyLeftBehind: When the first one is killed, his body is reduced to ashes. It's unclear whether this is because of the power of Centauri's gun or if a disintegrating body to avoid leaving any trace behind is a standard Zando-Zan thing.
* ProfessionalKiller: They've made a name for themselves as hired killers due to their race's propensity for being thrill-seekers. To the Star League, they're "ZZ-Designates." To the Ko-Dan, they're "[[DeadlyEuphemism Termination Emissaries]]." Centauri just calls them "hitbeasts."
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: They can transform themselves to look like anyone and even mimic voices.

* AllThereInTheManual: A lot of his backstory, such as the fact he has a family and is particularly keen on conquering the Star League as quickly as possible so he can go home and put his feet up (or whatever it is Ko-Dan do when they're off duty), comes from the novelization.
* AristocratsAreEvil: Is identified as ''Lord'' Kril in the credits and the novelization confirms he is a member of Ko-Dan nobility.
* DragonInChief: Nominally under Xur's command by the order of the Ko-Dan emperor, but he's much more "main villain" material than the whiny, overly theatrical and tantrumy Xur.
** DragonAscendant: After he gets tired of Xur's antics and repeated screwups.
* FaceDeathWithDignity: His response to his own impending death is to simply stand a little straighter, swivel his techno-monocle thing into place, and calmly inform his MookLieutenant "We die" (in response to the latter's panicked "What do we ''do''?").
* CommandingCoolness: A thoroughly levelheaded and smoothly evil Ko-Dan nobleman who holds the rank of Commander.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: He's actually a family man.
* HighClassGlass: He has a red-lensed futuristic monocle-like thing attached to the side of his helmet which tends to swivel into place whenever he's feeling particularly contemplative.
* PunchClockVillain: Doesn't seem too interested in the glories of conquest. He's got a job to do and he wants to get it done as quickly as possible.
* VillainousBreakdown: Suffers a minor one that sees him order Xur removed from command, and make a fatal tactical error of attempting to ram Alex and Grig's Gunstar with his own ship despite the guns not working, which is what leads directly to his own death. Unlike his second in command, however, he recovers long enough to prepare to meet his maker with dignity after realizing there's nothing they can do.
* WeAreStrugglingTogether: Finds Xur irritating, is amused by the evil Rylan's efforts to intimidate him, and clearly wishes he'd just go away.
