Xerxes

Xerxes is very spunky and headstrong, they always have something to say. Even in the most dire of situations they try to make the best of things and keep the mood light. They absolutely cherish those who are closest to them and would even put themself in immediate danger if it meant one of their friends would be safer.

They use their mysterious powers to protect and defend their friends from malice and hatred. No matter the form, no matter the size, Xerxes is always there. Armed with a radiant blade, sharpened resolve, and indefatigable purpose, they will take on any challenge to defend their friends. Especially their dearest.

Xerxes bears the likeness of an anthropomorphic Coreid Nymph. Their face consists of two bright eyes with a pair of stubby amber-colored eyebrows above them and a set of two antennae that move to reflect their mood. Their 'carapace' takes on the form of a layered cloak with a high collar. The markings are intricate and multi-colored, using hues of navy blue, amber, and orange. The cloak tapers off into two wing-like sections near the bottom. Underneath, their body is mostly orange, with some navy stripes on their arms. Additionally, their hands are also navy with lighter fingers. The greaves Xerxes wears are navy as well, with the toepieces and kneepads bearing the lighter navy of their fingers. NOTE: THEY HAVE NO VISBLE MOUTH.

There's not much to be said about Xerxes. It seems they keep their past mysterious on purpose. What is known about them, however, is that they're one of the only surviving members of a powerful race. The paracausal powers they wield are owed to their lineage, possibly the stars themselves.

As for a domestic life, Xerxes had been living aboard the living vessel Mantex was for quite a while before they met. They act as a 'neighborhood watch' when there isn't any imminent external threat.
