Gameplay

 * A:Xander cuts forward sending four waves of energy, then finishes by spinning and sending two dark energy waves forward.

Fighting Style
Xander is the only mounted sword wielder in the initial roster. As a Paladin, he is very resilient against damage, especially against physical damage.

His sword Siegfried is named after the hero of the Niebelungenlied, the Germanic epic poem. A Valkyrie who is the Queen of Iceland in the same poem, Brynhildr, is the namesake of Leo's legendary tome.

Xander's special Crest is Aegis, which is a classic Fire Emblem Paladin skill. As in Fire Emblem, it has a Luck-based chance of reducing the damage taken from bows, tomes and dragonstones.
