Appearance:
Xaier has a slightly average build when it comes to his body. He is toned and shaped from his daily exercises and the fact that he is usually an extremely active person. His legs are long, toned and flexible, which really helps with his fighting style. He has a few scars here and there, but the main set of scars that most people would see are the large scar that runs across the knuckles of his right hand. Another would be the scar that he received from his girlfriend. A light imprint of Kyr Merquise's teeth on the left side of his neck. The last scar would be the really small whitish line above his right eyebrow. It's rather hard to see, unless your really close.

Personality:
Usually, when someone runs into Xaier, they will find that he is rather nice and kind. He doesn't normally try to start anything with anyone, unless he feels that they deserve it in some way. When he first arrived at #552, he was slightly shy, and he had trouble speaking with students of the opposite gender. But as he grew older, that soon changed and he doesn't feel he has anything to be afraid of anymore. He is determined to prove himself to people. He had always been that way. When someone tried to keep him down, he would break free of them and prove that he was good enough to do whatever he wanted. That definitely showed while he was younger. Being a kind soul, he usually makes friends quite easily. He will protect his friends, and fight the people he feels are hurting them. He has always been over-protective of his friends, or other people really close to him.
At one point, during his first few years at this school, Xaier and many others that knew him, considered himself one of the few and proud 'defenders' of 552. He had tried his hardest to help the school, and fight the people that seemed to cause the trouble. But due to certain events, Xaier's thoughts of the school slowly began to change. He doesn't feel so dedicated to the school and it's student body anymore. He has lost faith in them both, as he feels that it's useless, and that such a school use to so much violence will never change. He will still help people in the school, he just doesn't do it as much as he use to.
Going into Public High-School 552, Xaier wasn't really the most dangerous person. He wasn't all that violent and hadn't really considered himself an extremely skilled fighter. But he did know that he enjoyed fighting. Fighting was something that he had always liked, even though he had not really done it that often. But entering such a violent school as 552, soon gave him the opportunity to grow as a fighter. He faced many, many different types of fighters. He won some, and lost some. Which was expected to happen. And the more he fought, the more he realized he liked it. The rush of battle couldn't be found in any other way. So if you challenge him, he will usually fight. He isn't the type of person that will just back down because of a fighter's reputation. HE isn't afraid to fight people stronger then himself.
When it comes to love, Xaier can't really find the words to describe how he feels. Its just one of those things that he had always had a problem believing that it existed. But when he falls in love, he falls deep. He will try to please that person to the best of his ability. Many would probably consider him 'whipped' but he doesn't care. He does what he wants. He likes to please his girlfriend.
Now, also during his first two years at high-school, Xaier wasn't really one to consider joining a gang of any sort. HE hadn't really even known too much about the gangs, aside from the fact that there were three main gangs. He hadn't really heard too much of either gang, and when a gang was brought up in a conversation, Xaier usually ignored it. But soon enough he had been sucked into gang activity. He had been recruited into Colossai. But that soon fell through and Xaier abandoned that dysfunctional gang, and joined up with the Reign of blood. He cares for his gang, and has been trying to advance as much as he can into the gang. He likes the people, and fights proudly in the name of the gang.
------------------------------------------------------------
Fighting Style:
Taekwondo: Taekwondo is primarily a kicking art, often with a greater emphasis on the sport aspect of the art. Taekwondo stylists tend to fight at an extended range, and keep opponents away with their feet. It is a hard/soft, external, fairly linear style and is known for being very powerful. There is a lot of competition work in many dojongs. Training tends to emphasize sparring, but has forms, and the basics are important as well.
Street Fighting/Brawling: Along with what he learned from Taekwondo, he knowns what almost every other person in the world knows. How to throw a punch or kick in any situation. He has that formal martial arts style, but he only uses it when he feels it's necessary. When Xaier fights, he tries to do whatever he can do. He will fight his hardest in any situation. He will bite if he has to, he will head butt, he would grapple and he will pull off holds. The only thing he usually refrains from in a fight, is using a weapon of any kind. He doesn't deem that respectful, or honorable. So he rarely uses a weapon, unless it is a life-or-death situation.
------------------------------------------------------------
Strengths:
Physically: When fighting, his main strengths are probably his kicks. Seeing as he knows Taekwondo, his kicks are relatively strong and quick. The training he had received from his 'sensai' gives him the ability to perform most of his kicks near-flawlessly. He will use many spinning type kicks, or sweeps to try and down his opponent or knock them off-balance. Also when fighting, he likes to try and switch of his tactics. He will try to be defensive through most of the fight, and then switch it up and go more offensive, even self-destructive attacks might be performed.
Mentally: Xaier is a very determined person. If he feels like he needs something to be done, then he will try his hardest to do it. He feels that he must be successful at whatever he does, or it was a waste to do it. He will try to believe in whatever he is doing, as to help motivate himself to push harder, and to keep on going.
Weaknesses:
Physically: When it comes to fighting, he doesn't always use his fists as often as he should, unless the situation is aimed at punching, and there isn't much room for kicks. His punches aren't generally performed as well as his kicks, as he usually concentrates on kicking in a fight, instead of using his hands as often as he should. He use to smoke as well, so he might be slightly effected by that. Though he quit, it could still have some effect on him.
Mentally: Mentally, Xaier is usually stable, though a few things can set him off. He hates to see women beat or hit. Stuff like that usually reminds him of his past. Of his mother and the fact that his father had once beat her near death. He will usually get depressed or extremely angry when he remembers that, and is not always able to control his emotions or physical actions in that certain situation. Sometimes he is easily tricked into doing some things. And even though he tries not to let it effect him, when some people talk about him, or try to provoke him, it can get through to him and make him angry.
------------------------------------------------------------
History:
Xaier moved to New York from a small, secluded town in New Hampshire. His father was put in jail for almost killing his mother when he was only 10. And seeing his mother get beaten has had an extreme effect on him. He hates to see females being picked on or hit. He was kicked out of his former school, at the age of 14, for attacking one of his teachers that had grabbed his girlfriend's wrist and pulled her from class. He hadn't really done that much damage to the teacher, but they didn't want to take the chance of him attacking another teacher in the school, or endangering one of the students. With that in mind, they had quickly kicked him from the school and then when Xaier was forced to move.
Xaier's little brother, Ethan, was killed when he was young. He had been hit by a car while Xaier was suppose to be watching him. But he hadn't been paying attention and his little brother had ran out into the street, chasing a ball that he had dropped, and before anyone could have prevented it, he had been clipped by the car and died instantly. Obviously that incident had an extremely large effect on Xaier and his mother. His mother became depressed, a long with Xaier. This is when his depression really started to come out. His mother didn't blame him, but Xaier couldn't help but feel that he was the reason that his brother had been killed. He still feels guilty about it.
About two years after his brother's death, Xaier had started to become interested in martial arts. His neighbor had been a martial artist for most of his life, and Xaier had often seen him practicing his arts daily. Xaier had approached him with many questions, but the Idea shot from Xaier's mind when he found the prices that he would have to pay for lessons. His neighbor had told him not to worry about the payments, and just to come over every day for free lessons and one-on-one training. Even after he moved, he still practices daily, what his teacher taught him in their time together. Xaier wishes that he could still visit him and keep gaining skill and strength. But they live to far away, and Xaier doesn't feel like trying to pay for lessons in New York. So instead, he tries to improve himself by just fighting, and adapting what he learned to different situations.
Once he moved, Xaier felt that he had lost many things. He had lost the few friends that he had. And he had lost the girl that he had really liked, Sienna. He felt as if he was going to die without her, but he knew that they could keep in touch. Though over time, their relationship faded and Xaier was lost to her all together. He still finds himself wondering what would have happened if he had never moved to this city. If he would still be with her there. Living a normal, happy life. But that was the past, and he had to look foreword into the future. He couldn't let himself sit around and mope about things that happened. Things he couldn't change. So he decided to put her behind him and move foreword. He guessed that he would have to try and find friends. He would have to forget his old ones, and gain new friends. He thought that maybe he would get lucky too. Maybe he would find a girl that he could truly care for here. That was something he desperately wanted. Someone that cared about him, and someone to care about.
Xaier now attends Public High-School #552. A rather violent high-school where he will spend the rest of his school career, until he goes to college that is. He would try to be optimistic about the whole situation, but given the reputation of the school, he felt as if he wouldn't last too long.
-------------
Much has happened since he had arrived at 552. He had found the girl he had truly loved. He had found a gang, and even though it was considered an 'evil' gang, he had found it to be his home. He had come to know and feel for most of the people in RoB. But unfortunately, like most great things, Reign of Blood collapsed. It had hit him heard. More so, it had really surprised him. Celeste, the leader had disappeared, and slowly the gang had been ripped apart. Many members along with her seemed to disappear. All of Xaier's friends seemed to be unfound. And once again, he felt lonely. He still had his fiance, but he worried himself far too much when it came to her. It seemed that as soon as people realized she was his Fiance, she had become the target of many 'hits' or plans. All aimed to draw Xaier out in some way.
So it came time to make a choice. To stay in New York, and continue to draw danger upon his future wife, and his unborn child. Or to run, to move away in hopes that she would be left alone, and they would come after him. After all, he had gained many enemies when he had joined RoB, and all his allies seemed to be 'dying out'. It was all very discouraging. And he hated the idea of leaving Kyr. Leaving his unborn child behind. But he wasn't sure if there was anything he could do to change it. He didn't know if there was any other answer. And in the end, he believed that it was the best thing to do. To leave her for a bit. Not forever, but at least for awhile. To try and keep the heat off her. After all, he wanted to make sure she had the kid with no problems. Though he would be wrecked when he heard it was born and he wasn't there.
After confronting the love of his life with his outrageous idea, he felt horrible. He knew it would break her as much as it would break him, and in the end, they decided to stay together. They decided that it would be best if both of them moved. If they went to a place that they wouldn't have to worry about others. Wouldn't have to worry about enemies. They would be safe. And so Xaier, with as much money as he had saved up over the years,and help from his uncle, Kyr and he both began the move. They would take what they could, and soon find an apartment. But before they were even ready to pack up, Xaier would hear about a trip. He decided he could use that trip to scout the place out, before they officially moved. Apparently some people had some problems with students at 552 for whatever reason. They wanted to fight, and Xaier would bring that fight to them.
