General information
Zeller was born into a respected family in the City, and was accepted into the Academy. There, he "displayed what is arguably an unrivaled appetite for research that at times (and ultimately) verged on the lethal." He made vast strides in the pursuit of Cube knowledge. The exact nature of his death is unknown, but it is related somehow to his research (presumably on the Cube), and is considered noble.
Attributed quote
"Nihil obstat scientia" (from the Firebox site)
Translated, this reads: "Nothing stands in the way of science." This fits with the suggested nature of Zeller's attitude and subsequent death.
