Personality
Though a reserved woman Xyliem is far from a distant leader. Since taking the title of Superior she has made a consistent effort to learn about others and navigate their emotions. While there's still much to learn she can now handle extreme fluctuations despite not possessing any herself. Xyliem has found purpose in guiding others, she recognises each member as unique individuals with unique ideas about what makes them happy. She takes it upon herself to make sure everyone gets what they need in order to achieve what they seek. Through her friendships she's developed a sense of humour, being able to banter back and forth with a still face and throw out one-liners that often surprise anyone who least expects it.  

Battle
As an Aikidokist, Xyliem uses the momentum and strength of her opponents to throw, sedate and apprehend them. The faster or stronger the enemy is, the easier it is to hurl them from their center of gravity. The key to her seemingly relaxed style of combat is a mixture of accessing an enemy's pressure points and her ability to move around her own centre in a way that is harmonious with the attacker. If dealing with projectiles or weapons, she simply evades them; evasion and dexterity being her best assets. Similarly when dealing with non-humanoid attackers, she will use her ability to dodge in order buy enough time so she can deduce where their pressure points lie. No matter what though, Xyliem's first and foremost priority in combat is to quickly neutralise the situation. Seldom will she let a fight go on for longer than it needs to.

Element
Neutrality as an element is used in a variety of ways. Firstly it helps her maintain a clear mind whenever she goes into battle, so nerves nor internalised tension ever get the better of her. Although elemental magic (e.g. fira, blizzara, thundra etc.) is her one major weakness, when it comes to spells designed to manipulate her senses, power levels or movement she can literally neutralize them, much to the frustration of anyone whose primary battle technique relies on this type of control (it should be noted that helping neutralise these afflictions on allies requires more time and concentration than just herself). With the exception of beings of pure light or dark, neutrality cannot be used to directly hurt others. It's only when dealing with denizens of light or dark does it become the definition of a weapon; stinging them like a hot iron and obliterating their entire being. Given the power of her element Xyliem does her best to leave light untouched. 

Berserk Form
"Cifra" is the form which Xyliem takes as a last ditch effort to end a large scale battle. An enormous bird with a 60ft wingspan, in order to access this state she must sacrifice 99% of whatever HP she has remaining. As Cifra, Xyliem is nigh unstoppable. She is able to harness neutrality as beams of energy to successfully revert all stats sans HP, charisma and intelligence to zero, rendering magic, weapons and elements completely unusable (includes allies as well as enemies). This is only temporary though, but it lasts long enough to induce a cease fire among battlers until next time. 
As with her element at normal levels, the only time this form actually causes damage is against beings of darkness or light. Cifra can decimate armies of Heartless with great ease, leaving a small dent on the power of Darkness. In spite of the overwhelming power of this state and the lack of time-limit, Xyliem will never assume it unless she is certain it's required. This is because she knows once she releases herself from that state she will go unconscious. After returning to her normal state as she will need a few days to recover. 

Facts
• Can’t cast elemental spells but can cast cure spells. 
• Can often be found with a drink in hand ranging anywhere between coffee, tea or alcohol.  
• Her neutrality keeps her from getting drunk 
• Her Berserk form is a homage to Valefor (FFX).
• Her hair grows out so quickly so she's ceased cutting it. However she still keeps her sides shaved.
