RoA: The Deadeye Hangman

The Deadeye Hangman

-Offense: Lead forms around Xathalas' fingertips in the shape of bullets. She can shoot these at her opponents. As far as aim goes, she can only accurately shoot two at a time. Any more and her aim starts to decrease. Xathalas can also tack a bit of lead onto her weapon to change it's shape. In the event that she's forced into close range, she shapes the blade into a sword or forms her fingers into lead claws. A good gash can not only harm her opponent, but also give them a bit of lead poisoning. She cannot summon lead outside of her skin or weapon save for the lead bullets. If she touches something made of lead, she can manipulate it to an extent, but is unable to completely bend it to her will.

-Defense: Xathalas can shape lead around her skin to create a 'shield'. She has a limited amount of lead at her disposal at any given time, so she only crafts the lead around certain parts of her body when it's required.

-Berserk Mode: In her Berserk mode, Xathalas' entire body is coated with lead. This makes it impossible for her to use it in any other way, except for shaping her fingertips into claws, as all of the lead she can muster is now on her body.

-Lessers: Her lessers are shaped like parrots. In battle, they can use lead to sharpen their beaks and claws for attack purposes. They peck and scratch, and flap about as a distraction.

-Negative Effects: Since lead is known to make people sick, the element is a danger to not only her enemies, but herself. If she allows the lead to stay on her flesh for too long, or anytime she comes out of berserk mode, she ends up ill for at least a day.

-Weapon Use: Xathalas uses her weapon the standard way you'd use a rope dart, throwing, pulling, stabbing, etc. But she also likes to add her own flare at times and tie a noose in the rope, a homage to her pirate background.


Xathalas was born as Latasha Benoit to a French whore and a Spanish pirate. The man had moved the woman to Tortuga so he could visit her bed sheets more often, and when it was found she was pregnant, he completely disappeared. Angry that she had been saddled with a child and no one to help her raise it, the woman raised the child into the business of prostitution. Never having a real childhood and only knowing the dirty streets of Tortuga, she dreamed of one day escaping the island and becoming a pirate. Hating the woman who raised and the life she'd been forced into, she killed her own mother by planting a black scorpion in her bed so she could runaway with no opposition.

A man had paid Latasha's mother a handsome price to keep her exclusively to himself. When he learned that his investment had run away, he immediately gave chase to the ship she'd stowed away on. However, her heart had become so dark and weak from the hatred she felt for her mother and her past, that heartless had followed her out to sea. She lived her life of piracy for two years, fighting off the man who had branded and 'owned' her the entire time until a giant heartless that had taken the form of a kraken destroyed her ship, allowing smaller heartless to swarm the crew and devour her heart.


Xathalas was found washed up on a shore somewhere, confused and not knowing what was going on. To this day, she is still unsure of who found her and brought her to the Organization. She spent the first chunk of her new life doing her best to avoid work, drinking and playing and refusing to believe she was in an organization full of people who were in some strange life/death limbo. She finally started taking things seriously some time later, making friends and allies and rising through the ranks until she eventually became a Castle Manager.

She met Paxsn when she was still irresponsible. The two of them originally had a strong distaste for each other, but the more they were forced to spend time together, the better they got to know one another. She fell for him when she realized how much respect he treated her with, even after learning of her past and knowing what an irresponsible brat she'd been when she joined the Organization. The pair eventually got married with the permission of Xelege. There was no clue that the two would eventually leave the Organization to try and live a normal married life, their interests no longer aligned with those of the Organization. They chose a life of piracy on the ship she'd rebuilt (with the help of Paxsn and some others) as a side task in her down time. 


When Paxsn and Xathalas left the Organization, they had told everyone they were going on a mission together. When they never returned, some had assumed they were dead, though there were probably those who knew better. Xathalas had tried to get rid of the red ribbon she kept tied in her hair, knowing that she had betrayed the woman who had given it to her. She ended up putting it away in a drawer instead to keep it as a reminder. Eventually Paxsn's hair had grown during their time out to sea, and she used it to tie his blonde locks away from his face.

After three years of trying to live as normal humans, they found that they couldn't continue to live pretending to be something they weren't. They ran into Xyliem, who then invited them to join the Rogues of Axiom. Deciding they couldn't return to the Organization after their long absence, they took Xyliem's offer.

-Xathalas is married to Paxsn, and the two are certain they'll be together until the day they die.
-Her element makes her quite sick at times. 
-She is half Spanish, half French. Even though she was raised by her French-speaking mother, she does not speak the language. She does, however, speak fluent Spanish, as she was raised on a Spanish isle.
-Xathalas has a bit of a drinking problem, always having a flask of rum somewhere on her person. 
-She has a set of nice ceramic jugs that Xoran had gotten for her. She keeps them at her bed side for late night drinks.
-She has no qualms about running around naked sometimes. She literally gives no shits.
-One of her favorite past times since becoming a Nobody and discovering technology is singing karaoke.
-She sometimes wonders if she made the right choice in leaving the Organization, but she won't talk about it with anyone.
-She has weird trust issues, and won't talk much about her past unless she's mega drunk.
-She has a tattoo on her lower back, the mark of the East India Trading Company. She is technically the property of EICo.
-She is unable to have children due to a stab through her uterus when she was fighting off a mutiny on her ship.
