Biography
Xanthus was born in the late 1950's and grew up with a fascination for the occult. He studied and practiced different forms of magic, seeking out forbidden knowledge and rituals that were deemed too dangerous by others. In the early 1990s, he was embraced by Salvador Simonis, who recognized Xanthus' potential as a kindred with knowledge of the occult.
For several years, Xanthus remained loyal to the Camarilla, using his skills to aid his sire and other Tremere. However, he began to question their methods and motivations, and eventually fled from their authority in 2006. Xanthus found refuge among the anarchs, joining their ranks and swearing to live free from the control of the Ivory Tower.
