Xanthus is quiet, obedient, and doesn't get much screentime. Some of you, however, especially with the most recent events, might learn what exactly Xanthus had been doing. Your lives on the line, Xanthus is now prepared to divulge.
1866: Born.
1877: Laritta disaster. Xanthus is 11. It doesn't have the same effect on him as it does Irving or Minka, but it does effect him greatly.
1878: Enrolls in school at Laritta to prepare for the exams. Spends the year there.
1879: Enters Vane at 13, makes fast friends with irving, who is 14.
1880: 14 years old. Gaining a reputation for working on Mandrake.
1881: Third year -- Is 15, Irving is 16.
1882: All but legend among the engineers 4th year
1883: Xanthus graduates as an engineer with a specialization in mechanical design and continues on to MORE SCHOOL, this time in the engineering sector M2 of the military shell.
1884: His focus is made clear. He graduates early and is recognised as a prodogy. He's permitted to propose his own projects and works off his debt designing weapons for the military, working directly under the amazing Deltin Whiteburn.
1885: enlisted. Makes metal gear or something.
1886: His debt has been worked off. He is promoted to Lead Engineer and given a team: a chubby, short red-haired girl named Esha Mylene with old northern drakken blood, a ghostly man named Ardal Ronson and a stern, beautiful blonde-haired girl named Marsha Grey Xanthus develops a mad crush on. He's 20, the youngest on the team in spite of being the leader. Marsha is 30.
1887: It seems Marsha is not there to work, but to take notes. It isn't until now he learns that she's there to watch his progress. He doesn't mind being watched by her. He tries to ask her out on dates, which she always firmly refuses.
1888: Xanthus enters Manloh, already notorious. He's sad to find Irving has just left. He is informed by Marsha of his new military mission, a top secret project called Project Winters. He begins work on, of all things, a WHEELCHAIR.
1889: Lamarck, from another department (Irving's!) disappears under suspicious circumstances, which bothers Xanthus greatly. He is barred from researching into this due to his heavy military involement (He's watched too closely) but is comforted enough to learn that Irving is safe. He meets his new charge, a girl 4 years younger than him (He's 23, she's 19), making her a genius prodogy as well. She isn't on his team and isn't given a team. Marsha leaves when Eva comes, which upsets Xanthus deeply.
1889: Feather Island disaster.
1890: Works with Eva on bio-mecha supposedly based on Neiva bones but is actually MADE OUT OF those bones, effectively inventing one of the most amazing developments since standard issue plug-in parts, what's more he's only 24 years old. Both he and Eva are credited. Eva is only 20.
1891: Eva pilots the masterwork, "TEST-TYPE 001MX" traveling mostly on missions for Homestead and Frontier. Xanthus remains at Manloh and is allowed to work on his own projects again. He remains on call for anything involving Eva.
1894: Game start. Xanthus turns 28, is contacted by Irving and eagerly returns to vane, only to find much has happened.
1895: Xanthus is turning 29 this year, his best friend is turning 30 earlier than he'll turn 29, which'll be a laugh. He ends up mid-year being called back for "Project Winters" by none other than Marsha Grey. She needs to be reigned in, as she is getting too active and too curious. They want a modification on her wheelchair.
