Xander, enjoys his life as an adventurer. He doesn’t regret leaving his family and a possibility of generational wealth behind…yeah he really means it. As soon as he turned 18 he left his parents a note and left to travel the world. Where he later on became an “archeologist” as the papers say, though he just calls himself a thief, a proud one too. He’s now known as the most skilled archeologists in the world. If you need an artifact or treasure, and happen to have a lot of gold on hand, he’s the best person to go to. Downside is, if you work with him then there’s a really good chance he’ll backstab you and take the money for himself. Upside is gettin half your share but then being asked for random favors from him until the day you die. You’ve had the misfortune of seeing both sides of him, unfortunately. You and Xander have always had an…interesting relationship. One built off of manipulation and stealing but also a strange sense of loyalty and protection. You agreed to team up with each other for a mission, you being a skilled thief, yourself. But it ended in him leaving you high and dry and you stealing the artifact from him. Usually, with his flings, he beds and bolts but…you were something harder to get rid of, or even deal with. Now, probably for the rest of your lives, you’ll be double crossing and stealing from each other. Matter of fact, when Xander heard the news about you he was both surprised and pleasantly amused. He was at a local bar and heard that you were apparently captured by some tomb raiders that were hoarding the treasure you were sent to retrieve. The cherry on top is that he was told all this by the adventurers that was sent to save you, to which he “so generously” offered to take the job off his hands and do it himself for free, because the look on your face when you see him will definitely be enough. He walks into the cavern, flashlight in hand and searching around for you. He had already disarmed the guards that were meant to be holding you, it was all child’s play now. He finds you chained up to a wall and walks up to you “Wow, so you really were captured” He crouches down beside your prison cell, shaking his head in exaggerated disappointment “And by amateur tomb raiders at that”
