==Personality and character==


Xander is the crown prince of Nohr and next in line to succeed his father, [[Garon]]. As such he's been trained to be a king since his childhood and because of this he's shown to be quite distant from other people, including his family. Despite this Xander is a family-man, showing great care towards his three younger half-siblings and even his adopted sibling, [[Corrin]], as well. While he is often away in battle, he has a surprising knowledge of many of their preferences, hobbies and habits, causing even [[Camilla]] to acknowledge that his knowledge rivals even hers.

Xander is considered to be a model knight, he's fiercely loyal to his father and is ready to do anything for the sake of his country, [[Nohr]]. Xander is also extremely honorable as shown in ''Conquest'', as he refuses to follow [[Zola]]'s plan to kill the Hoshidan royals unarmed in order to end the war swiftly, because he considered it dishonorable and does not tolerate [[Kotaro]]'s plan to capture Kagero to force Hoshido to surrender and is ready to kill him for his deceitful actions. Despite this he views that no one is truly evil, but merely shades of right and wrong that stems from their character, though he has his limits and will not tolerate cowardly and disgraceful people such as [[Hans]] and [[Iago]], and is willing to kill them behind Garon's back to maintain Nohr's honor.

Xander is described as "stubborn" by his trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. For Nintendo 3DS''. This can be seen in Chapter 26 of ''Birthright'' when Xander is unwilling to give up a duel with Corrin despite the death of his own sister and the intervention of his retainers.

Despite being shown as clever in his supports, Xander refuses to see how his father has changed and will even attack his siblings if they dare disobey Garon, shown in ''Birthright'', when he attacks Corrin for accusing Garon of being evil. He does uncover how Garon is no longer human and has been replaced by another entity shown in ''Conquest'', after Garon was exposed in his monster form by sitting on the Hoshidian throne, he turns against Garon and joins Corrin's side to kill him while also rallying his siblings to fight Garon, and in ''Reveation'', after he sees Garon having a conversation with Anankos and ordering him to destroy Hoshido and Nohr, and decides to betray him and join Corrin.

Xander often contradicts himself as he dislikes war, but is willing to let help his enemys if he considers the means of victory dishonorable. He also berates [[Charlotte]] and [[Inigo|Laslow]] for their flirting ways, but is completely fine with his retainer, Peri, going on killing sprees. This is usually considered a problem with the writing in ''Fates'', rather than a character flaw of Xander.
