Name: Xanti Nickname: Xan Pronunciation: Zan-tee or Zan
Colorist: Sabin Duvert Obtained: May 11th, 2010 From: Mouslet’s PVP Game, WOW Event Co-ownership?: N/A
Age: Adult Previous Stages: N/A Gender: Male
Breed: Blighthound Type: World of Warcraft Cosplay Edition Mutant Soquili Familiar: N/A
Temper: Irascible Likes: Fireflies, Kalonas, Skinwalkers, Fresh meat, Chasing prey Dislikes: Water, Ice, Snow Roleplay Color: #666666
Personality:
Xan is smart, but his thoughts are mainly focused on food. His life is governed by thoughts of his next kill and how much energy he has left before he needs to recharge. Due to his large build and the large quantities of muscle he has, he needs to make sure he has enough energy to make it to his next meal. He does not ingest vegetation at all, and rarely consumes water so he needs to eat a certain amount of meat to survive. This means that Xanti's temper is largely dictated by his stomach and may change abruptly. He may go from calm, to hungry and raging in a matter of minutes, if he uses most of his energy up.
Since he has so much practice over the years, Xan is an excellent hunter. He is very focused and calculating when it comes to the hunt. He can predict the easiest route to his prey in order to make a kill, and can even figure out routes for more than one creature at a time. Once caught, he will immediately kill his prey and eat it. He doesn't toy with his victims since it is not in his nature to be unnecessarily cruel.
Xanti's attitude towards other soquili changes depending on the time and place. If there's meat about, he'll definitely feel protective over it or want to steal it, since it directly relates to his well-being...but if he's just eaten and feeling bloated, he may not even bother caring about the other soquili's presence at all (or he may even strike up a conversation with them). Most likely Xanti will test a soquili he hasn't encountered before by mock attacking them. If they prove fearsome (such as kalona's or skinwalkers) he may take advantage of their prowess and invite them out to catch some lunch, but if they quiver in fear he may mistake them for lunch instead.
Xanti has formed an attachment (not quite love but the closest to affection as he gets) to Drith, the manipulative Usdia mare. And although he knows that she is using him for her own devices he has no qualms about staying by her side at the moment... and with her comes Anomaly, her son. Although jealous of the basket at first, Xanti soon forms a somewhat fatherly attachment with the little stallion as he grows up. Xanti ends up protecting the foal from his mother's continual wrath and a gentler side of Xanti slowly begins to reveal itself. Not quite so vicious, he sometimes displays a softer nature when he's around the little usdia...unless there's meat about. Then there's still no stopping him.
Quirks:
Xan doesn't require that much water. Much like a camel, Xan will drink a large amount at once then go without for a long time, usually around a month to a month and a half. The time in between decreases when it is hot out.
Xan's feet are molten fire, and they hurt when wet. He can set stuff on fire if he flares them enough. He has to concentrate on the thought that the fire is leaving his feet, so it is not something that can happen without his assent/knowledge.
Xan has sharp pointy carnivorous teeth, not flat teeth. He also can't digest plant-life.
Xan had predator-like eyesight in the dark; However, he rarely uses it, since he is not nocturnal.
Xan is still a hound. He likes to chase cats and anything that sparks his prey drive.
Relationships:
With Drith: Affectionate. He cares about this spunky little mare and lets her get away with bossing him around.
With Anomaly: Fatherly. He stands up for the little guy and has a bit of a soft spot for him.
With Whisk: Disinterested. He rarely bothers with her. He can't stand her continual chatter and tries to stay away from her (since he's not allowed to eat her).
With Sloane: Confused and tentative friendliness. He doesn't know whether he likes this drug addicted usdia or not. At times he finds Sloane amusing at other points he just doesn't know what to think.
With Malice: Jealousy, respect, and hesitant acceptance. For the most part he tries to ignore Malice but at the same time he can't help but hate him and respect him at the same time.
With Meowth: Indifference. He thinks of Meowth as a cat and can't help feeling the need to chase him off. Since he can't do that, he has chosen to ignore him.
With Vesia: Annoyance. He gets annoyed at the tricks Vesia and his brother always seem to be playing.
With Kezia: Annoyance. He gets annoyed at the tricks Kezia and his brother always seem to be playing.
With Mordecai: Friendliness. He likes this punky lil usdia and enjoys his attitude. He doesn't mind hanging out with the goat.
With Mero: Friendly. He likes the spunk that Mero has and her strong personality. He is content about her relationship with Anomaly because she is able to protect him.

Basket - Stage 1 Xanti doesn't remember being in his basket, where he came from or who his parents are. He has no recollection of his basket stage.
Foal - Stage 2 Xanti vaguely remembers being a foal. He knows he came through the O-da-lv Pass but whether he was born in the Uunule Noyi Desert or from farther away he has no idea. While he was a foal he learned how to survive on his own, from hunting to drinking water without having it splash on him. Although he was relatively unprotected at this time, he somehow managed to survive on small prey and sometimes the odd large herbivore. At this point in his life he avoided all other soq and focused mainly on getting his wits about him...aswell as learning some hunting techniques.
Young Adult - Stage 3 As Xan grew he became increasing conscious about the other soq out there. He started to explore all up and down the coast and through the forest, only bothering to avoid the Kawani village. During this time he goes on many different adventures and meets many different soq. Sometimes this goes well, other times not so much. He starts to perfect his hunting skills and learns that sometimes it is beneficial to hunt as a pair or group.
Young Adult - Stage 4 During Xan's time of wandering he comes across a particularly interesting Kalona mare named Vera that catches his eye. A bit of romance ensues but they part ways before Xan ever realizes she's pregnant.
Adult - Stage 5 Not too long ago Xanti came across a small Usdia named Drith who somehow tricked him into letting her journey around with him. Now Xan has been completely captivated by this sly little skull rabbit and is willing to do her bidding. For now.
Adult - Stage 6 Drith gets pregnant with a male usdia named Eye Scream and produces three baskets which she cherishes more than Xanti. Angered by her attitude, Xanti tries to kill them. Eye Scream manages to sneak two away and the last one barely manages to get saved by Drith. She hides the last one away from Xan, increasing his anger, until one day a foal emerges. Once Drith realizes her offspring is male...and doesn't have a skull at that, she gives up on it completely. She abandons it...but it attempts to follow them. Xanti starts to grow attached to the tiny creature that persistently follows them, and soon he begins to look out for it. He gives the little stallion the name Anomaly and protects it from Drith's anger and rage.
Adult - Stage 7 On their journey to create a herd, Xan, Anomaly and Drith come across a cold mare named Dragoon. She comes and goes, but somehow manages to rejoin Xan and Drith on their journey.
Adult - Stage 8 More mini's join the herd and for the most part Xanti doesn't seem to mind. He still acts as their protector. He is weary when Drith announces her lifemating with Malice and rages about it for a good half a month. He doesn't eat the stallion for fear of losing Drith but he would have really liked to.
