Personality
Energetic and friendly, X'elo often comes off as charming and somewhat naive. He fits within the
general expectations of a bard, appearing showy and over the top.
Talents
Nothing is known yet.
TV Tropes
C̶h̶e̶w̶ ̶T̶o̶y̶: His first appearance had X'elo getting his head stomped in for rehearsing the part of a Garlean for a performance.
Butt Monkey: Things got a bit better, but he was then declared legally dead just as he was starting to get popular again, and then robbed by a bandit.
I̶d̶o̶l̶ ̶S̶i̶n̶g̶e̶r̶: No one remembers him due to his unintentional participation in The Battle of Carteneau.
U̶n̶k̶n̶o̶w̶n̶ ̶R̶i̶v̶a̶l̶: Previously Blade's Rival. No longer pursuing Blue, and he has gotten over the whole beating thing after winning a battle with his Rival. (Throwing sand in his face.)
Good Is Not Dumb/Let's Get Dangerous: X'elo is staggeringly competent in a pinch, and the sudden shift frequently surprises whoever has him cornered.
The Heart/Wide-Eyed Idealist: Considering the company he tends to travel with, X'elo is often the person arguing against 'permanent' solutions.
Hot-Blooded: Like a one man Tokusatsu performance, X'elo throws himself headlong into nearly everything he attempts. Frequently to the point of being a "Determinator."
Genre Savvy: "You know, in a play, it would go like..." Taking 'theater mimics real life' to an absurd level, he is correct a surprising amount of the time.
Heroic Wannabe: Still trying to live up to the fame he once had, X'elo often takes stupid risks to try and not only come out on top, but for everyone to know he did.
The Dandy: He's a Bard and he dresses like one.
Abilities and Skills
Weapons
While X'elo is most comfortable with a bow, he has been known to take to his fists if engaged up close. He also has some skill with lances, polearms, and shovels.
Magic
To his knowledge, X'elo is unable to use magic in any form.
Crafting
The Miqo'te is a surprisingly good cook, and has been working on his sewing ability as well.
Family and Relationships
Relatives
X'elo has made reference to an unnamed mother and father that, due to the aftermath of the Battle of Carteneau, no longer remember his appearance. While he still cares about his previous family, he has cut off contact with them upon their request.
Positive
Sasha Rochester: X'elo became infatuated with Miss Rochester soon after their first meeting. She came off as charming and refined, and perhaps more importantly, liked his music. The bond between the two grew relatively quickly, and while they are no longer "an item," they remain close friends.
Kara Ashdale: "The Bandit Queen," or so he calls her. While their first encounter ended with in X'elo being robbed, he managed to get his gil back in their next meeting. Since they then have managed to patch things up, even if he still doesn't fully trust her.
Blue Vann: Once the object of X'elo's one sided affection, he still considers her a friend and a reliable ally. Her conjury has kept him alive on multiple occasions.
