Persona

Note: Xavier's name and persona are not connected to each other.

Xavier's name can be found in the region where Spain and France meet in the late 1500's and early 1600's (see research in OSCAR name registration). The origin of the name is fitting with Xavier's research (IRL) into Gérard Thibault d'Anvers's rapier system, since Thibault learnt fencing in Spain before returning to Leiden, Netherlands and writing his fencing system in Academie de l'Espée in French (since the book was sponsored by the French Crown).

Xavier's persona is of a Swedish sailor with Norse pagan heritage before the conversion of Scandinavians to Christianity in the late Viking age (950-1000).
