Face Claim: Cillian Murphy
Player: Ollie
CHARACTER NAME: Xavier Bolton
AGE: 32
CURRENT RESIDENCE: Teronna
APPEARANCE: Xavier stands at a rather large 6’2” and weighs around 194 pounds. He has dark brown hair with rather intense blue eyes. He generally keeps his hair fairly short as it tends to get far too shaggy when it gets longer. While he seems fairly underweight he is more muscle than fat causing him to be very lean and thin appearing. With his high cheekbones, sharp jaw, and rather serious looking face makes him come off as cold and unapproachable. Which isn’t entirely incorrect. The only people who seem to get a softer side of Xavier are his younger sisters. His body is littered in scars that outline his skin like a road map of rage.
MARITAL STATUS: Single
FAMILY TIES: Vanessa Bolton (Younger Sister), Preston Bolton (Younger Brother), Farrah Bolton (Younger Sister), Haywood Bolton (Father), @vance (Cousin)
POSITION/OCCUPATION: Knight/Centurion Warden
TITLE/RANK: Marquis
GRAMARYE GIFT: N/A
PERSONALITY: There are few people who would describe Xavier as warm or pleasant to be around. Not that he's a horrible person. This is a man of few words. Most people outside of his family have never seen him so much as smile. He's a serious man who only cares about his country and his family. Some might describe him as a "hard ass" or "cold hearted" but it's simply because he is someone who expects competence and order.
With his family he has a tendency to show a much softer side of himself. At least with his younger sisters. He can be sarcastic and even playful with the right people. Though it's often times hard to tell when he is or isn't joking. And he'll rarely tell you if he is. While he's deeply intelligent and fiercely loyal Xavier is a man very set in his ways. Family and honor mean more to him than most anything else. He's a hard working man with a deep seated rage against mystics that fuels a lot of his motivation. He's not a man that likes to open up about how he feels or the things he's seen. Unless asked direct questions he won't give more information on anything than he needs to.
As the oldest child in his family he feels it's his job to watch after his siblings. To make sure his family is well cared for and doing the best that they can. While he tends to treat his brother a bit harsher he spoils his sisters rotten at every given chance. He's the peace keeper, the protector.
HISTORY:
Xavier was the first born child to the Bolton family. As the eldest son there were a lot of expectations set on him from the day he was born. For the first four years of his life though, he was his mothers baby. He was her entire world and she coddled him and spoiled him, much to his fathers distaste. When he was four years old though his mother gave birth to his first sister, Farrah. With her attention placed on her newborn child Xavier was put through vigorous training and teaching. He showed great potential with fighting from a young age started training with a practice blade by the time he was five.
Seven more years it was just Xavier and his sister. He felt rather close to her and became very protective over his little sister very quickly. When he wasn't training or in schooling he could often times be seen playing with his sister or his older cousin Vance. As a child though he was often times a bit more trouble than he was worth. Scaring other children, getting into needless fights, traveling into places he shouldn't have been in. Some called him aggressive. Others called him curious and expressive.
As he aged though his temperament seemed to calm. At least outwardly. He became more focused on his training and school work. He had a deep need to make his father proud and did anything he could to make him happy. Though he still spent a good amount of time with his cousin. He didn't mind his younger brother joining them but he'd noticed fairly early on the boy wasn't good at defending himself. That task fell on him. Xavier was always there to protect his younger brother or at the very least show other children why they shouldn't mess with Preston again.
While he had some possible betrothals Xavier was far too focused on his military career to focus on marriage or any kind of romantic endeavors. He spent much of his younger years in service to the crown starting out in the Guards before moving on to become a Knight at the age of seventeen. After the tragic death of his mother he became filled with a rage and a sadness that he couldn't move past. He traveled Teronna with Vance ridding his country of as many of the beasts as he could get his hands on. Though it never seemed to satiate his anger. At nineteen, after his years of military service and loyalty to the king, Xavier was introduced to the Wardens. A well kept secret that he was ecstatic to be recruited into.
Since then he's spent his life in service to the crown and his country. Though his father is still on the look out for a suitable wife Xavier is in no rush to get married. Still far too focused on his career and the family he already has.
