Torn up on the inside over abandoning people he cared about in the past, Xolotl has taken up the roughest job he could think of as a drastic measure to become a stronger person and cast off his weak spirit. Originally, he worked for the owner of the Tokyo Casino, but his old master has gone missing and her whereabouts are unknown, so for the time being his service has been commandeered by the Roppongi Tycoons. He loathes his new master despite serving faithfully as a watchdog, but is too much of a wimp to complain openly.}} | ||

{{#vardefine:transient jp en research file|Xolotl's home world of El Dorado is a world filled with endless war and death. Everything around is meant to be used in the System that sends fuel referred to as sacrifices to the sun. One of his brothers objected to this System, then left the world. However, even after Xolotl ran away, he believed that his world was right. Now in the land of the underworld, Xolotl wields the Sacred Artifact his brother once held. It is the dragon's relic made of burning turquoise that severs the land. But why does he have that? Why does HE have that? In pursuing these questions, Xolotl remembers about the days he went on a journey with his brother to the burning realm of the dead Mictlan. Just like back then, he will go hand in hand, lend his assistance, pull up his courage, and hold his hand out hoping that they'll take his hand. He will never hate children who run off to dangerous places, but they do make him anxious and frenetic as he remembers his past.}} | |||

== Notes == | |||
* Xolotl is based on the deity of the [[Wikipedia:Xolotl|same name]] in [[Wikipedia:Aztec_mythology|Aztec mythology]]. Xolotl is a god of fire, lightning, twins, monsters, and sickness; and was often described as a dog-headed man. He is also closely associated with death as Xolotl was a [[Wikipedia:Psychopomp|psychopomp]], beings that would lead the souls of the dead to the [[Wikipedia:Mictlan|underworld]]. | |||
** In one variation of the [[Wikipedia:Five Suns|Five Suns]] in the legend of [[Wikipedia:Teotihuacan|Teotihuacan]], the gods decided to sacrifice themselves for the newly created fifth sun. Xolotl withdrew from the sacrifice and cried to the point where his eyes fell from their sockets. | |||
** And according to another story recounted in the [[Wikipedia:Florentine_Codex|Florentine Codex]], the fifth sun did not move as it was created. So [[Wikipedia:Ehecatl|Ehecatl]] decided to slay the other gods as sacrifice to induce the new sun to move. Xolotl, not wanting to die, fled and hid but was eventually found and slain by Ehecatl. | |||
* Xolotl's [[Sacred Artifact]] may be a reference to the spiral conch-like necklace called ''ehecailacacozcatl'' or "wind jewel", he and his brother Quetzalcoatl were depicted to have this necklace adorning them. The stars may be a reference to how Quetzalcoatl and Xolotl were associated with the planet [[Wikipedia:Venus|Venus]] with Quetzalcoatl as the god of the morning star and Xolotl as the god of the evening star, as both are the planet Venus seen at different times of the day. | |||
* His charge skill "Mayahuel Ehecatl" is in reference to two Aztec deities; [[Wikipedia:Mayahuel|Mayahuel]], a goddess associated with the [[Wikipedia:Agave_americana|maguey]] plant and fertility, as well as the wife of Quetzalcoatl, and Ehecatl, a god of wind and is often considered as an aspect of Quetzalcoatl. This is also reflected in his title "Defender of Wind and Wood". | |||
* Most of Xolotl's skills have direct ties to his story. | |||
** "Gardener" is in reference to the Mayahuel portion of his sacred artifact where it could rapidly grow plants. | |||
** "Sacrificial Defender" is a reference to how he was sacrificed in order to move the fifth sun and how he is a guard dog. | |||
** "Shapeshifter" is a reference to how he hid from Ehecatl in the story recounted in the Florentine Codex, where Xolotl transformed into two stalks of maize plant (xolotl), a double maguey plant (mexolotl), and an amphibious animal ([[Wikipedia:Axolotl|axolotl]]). | |||
* After receiving a new pair of eyes from the [[Crafters]], Xolotl, upon seeing the {{Transient icon|Protagonist}} quickly exclaims that they are his exiled brother [[Exile#El_Dorado|Quetzalcoatl]]. | |||
** This would also make {{Transient icon|Tezcatlipoca}} and Xolotl brothers. | |||
** In his Special Quest for the Sunshine Christmas event {{Transient icon|Itzamna}} says Tezcatlipoca is his sibling; by that logic that what make Xolotl his sibling as well. | |||
* Though having the appearance of a [[Wikipedia:Doberman|doberman]] breed of dog due to its strong associations with guard dogs; Xolotl may also be based on the [[Wikipedia:Xoloitzcuintle|Xoloitzcuintle]] or ''Xolo'' or "Mexican hairless dog" originating from Mexico, as the dog was named after the god Xolotl and the word "itzcuīntli" meaning "dog" in [[Wikipedia:Nahuatl|Nahuatl]], where the name originated. | |||
