Colonel Zol

Colonel Bakarashin Iinodevitch Zol, commonly known as Colonel Zol (ゾル大佐), is the leader of Shocker's Middle East Branch. His true form is a wolf monster known as Werewolf (狼男) (a.k.a. Gold Wererwolf (黄金狼男)).

Kamen Rider
Colonel Zol was a former member of the Nazi born in Leipzig, Germany as well as Neo-Shocker member General Monster's superior when the general was still an officer. At the concentration camp Auschwitz-Birkenau, he lost his eye after a gas leak and covered it with an eyepatch. After World War II, he was invited to join Shocker by the Great Leader. Zol kept his old uniform to show his pride of his past despite being called a war criminal. He then went through the altering process of becoming a werewolf. His personal mark, worn by the soldiers of his own Shocker outpost and used in his official correspondence, was the Shocker emblem, but with the bird's head replaced by a wolf's.

Driven by hate, he brought a wave of destruction to the Middle East to build Shocker's utopia there until he was called to Japan. He confronted Kamen Rider #2 himself in episode 39 and after a lengthy fight was toppled off a cliff by Kamen Rider #2's Rider Punch, destroying him. Gold Werewolf briefly appeared in Kamen Rider vs. Shocker among the members of the resurrected monster army.

V3
Along with Doctor Shinigami, Ambassador Hell, and General Black was resurrected by Doktor G to transform him into Crab Laser so he could destroy Kamen Rider V3. He aimed to become a Destron commander, replacing Doktor G. However, he died with the other revived villains when Destron's base accidentally self destructed.

Abilities
After going through the alteration process Zol became a werewolf kaijin, transforming by whipping at the ground. He has the ability to shoot missile like claws from his hands in this form. He was also a disguise specialist, able to mimic Taki's appearance almost perfectly using only make up during his debut.

Kamen Rider Decade
In Kamen Rider Decade: Final Chapter, Narutaki becomes Colonel Zol to once and for all destroy Kamen Rider Decade. Together with Super Doctor Shinigami and what's left of Dai-Shocker they form Super Shocker. Unlike original Zol,  Narutaki as Zol does not transform Inhumanoid Gold Werewolf in the movie due to his lack of cybernetic implants. When Tsukasa is revived after his voluntary destruction, he Yuusuke, Kaito, and Natsumi turn into their rider forms to fight against Zol and his army. When Doras goes on a rampage and Zol is knocked out of his way, he reverts back to Narutaki and flees.

Portrayal
In Kamen Rider the original series, Colonel Zol was portrayed by Jirō Miyaguchi (宮口 二郎).
