Xan
Xanatherix Goldscale (a.k.a. Xan)
A kind-hearted inventive Dragonborn artificer and guild member of the Order of St Tara, Xanathos, Xan for short, is an ally of Doomed 2 Die and friend/contact of Olivir. A deeply intelligent person with a knack for tinkering and inventing, Xan was able to identify the Rift beneath the Dragonsound and hypothesised something evil was causing the attacks on human and elven ships in the area. With Oli's help, and now Vorr's, Xan is focused on inventing a submersible ship to dwelve into the rift and end the threat once and for all.
Xan has kept most their past private, but in their few meetings with Doomed 2 Die they haven proven to be a smart and amicable friend who has presented solutions to getting to the shadowfell and was able to decipher Wraith infesting The Endeavour. They are currently in Crowsport, working hard with Vorr and Garelen Alazars.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Xan has kept much of their past close to the chest, not out of any secrecy but rather because there are always more interesting things to talk about. They are clearly not-native to Aedrinar given their worship of the Divinitist Saint, St. Tara, and their dragonborn nature. They are a proud member of the Order of Saint Tara, and appear to have joined them when they were young.
The Deep Arc
Doomed 2 Die were first informed about Xan by Oli, who told them of his ally in Crowsport near Valkyrie. Oli had been helping Xan with his sumbarine project, using his sea-breathing and swimming abilities to help use the submersible prototypes, which regularly meant diving to the sea floor to collect the debris from the implosions/explosions. They party decided to sail to Vanaheim after dealing with Vanar Salinir and met with Xan in his workshop. The Dragonborn was happy to see Oli and pleased to "make new friends" in the form of the party. He told them of his ideas for a submersible, but dispaired he could not quite crack what was required. He admitted there was only one person alive who could likely come up with the solution, the legendary drow inventor and former president, Vorrindel Paladokos. The last he heard, Vorr was in Palaidcyntaff after being exiled and the time to find and bring him to Aedrinar would be too long. Doomed 2 Die informed the inventor they were in posession of a sun elf sailor that could get them to the distant city within a few hours and back and invited him along. After determining the location of Vorr from President Gal, Xan accomponined them on the ship to The Commonwealth. On board The Endeavour, Xan, inspired by Einar and guided by Val, was able to investigate and determine the properties of the Wraith machinery on their ship. With theirs and Auran's persmission be began to devise a plan to isolate the infected warforged via their heads and ask the intelligence questions. In the commonwealth, Xan helped find Vorr and convinced him of his project's goals. The inventor agreed to come, and Xan helped defend him from a Lolth Loyalist attack on the former president. Back on the ship, Xan enacted their plan with the warforged. Unfortunately, the Wraiths were more powerful than estimated and once it became clear the party, through Xan's help, had learnt too much the Wraiths attacked. Xan was in engineering with Kilir Dragontooth and Vorr, and was amongst the first to escape. He was returned to Crowsport by mysterious mage Galeren.
