Following his acception of a military alliance with The Gladiator, he gave the Lubyanka Terrorist Group tons of resources and he used his unlimited funds to help propel them into a strong position to attack several key cities. Eventually, Thrawn convinced Exedous to join his elite military with The Gladiator and Xiloun became a high-ranking member of his inner circle.

## Biography

### Past

Xiloun's past is unkown, but it is infered that he came from a wealthy background, which allowed him to fund his private military company held in Merringdam. Typically, Xiloun didn't start much conflict, and remained in his mountain villa and resort for most of his life. His widespread funds and resources made him a target of the Military due to his collaboration with The Gladiator.

### Season 1

Xiloun is first seen when Russell and The Gladiator visit his villa. Gladiator proposes a military alliance and protection in exchange for some resources to help propel their group forward. Xiloun takes a while, but he agrees due to their mutual hatred for the american forces. Following the meeting, Russell and Gladiator start to leave, but are ambushed by the Special Forces. Before he can get captured, Xiloun flees the area and meets up with a mysterious person to discuss what went down.

Later, he and Thrawn meet up with The Gladiator following a succesful attack on a village, and Thrawn says he's proud of their work, and issues a deal to rebrand the Lubyanka into *The Order*. Gladiator agrees and Xiloun escorts them out.

In the Season Finale, Xiloun is standing behind Thrawn as he gives his speech to all of the people still in the capital of Merringdam, warning them that if they continue battling him and his troops, he will show them no mercy. They all cheer and Xiloun follows Thrawn into his HQ, ending off the season.

### Season 2

Returning for Season 2, Xiloun remained in Thrawn's throne room for a majority of the season due to being his personal bodyguard. He is first seen in the very beginning watching the hospital battle from a CCTV, admiring the leadership of Russell. Thrawn later orders him to extract Russell and his forces following their victory, and he agrees.

He is later seen following Russell's capture of the HVT, where he executes him on live television per Thrawn's orders after Thrawn disputes a monologue. He talks with The Gladiator afterwards, where Gladiator reveals his hatred for Thrawn, instead of telling Thrawn this, Xiloun keeps it to himself to prevent Gladiator from getting into trouble, or killed.

When the Americans attacked the citadel, Xiloun ambushed them and killed some of the troops, and injured the rest. Once reinforcements arrived, Xiloun fled the area and fell back to the Headquarters, where his last stand would take place. Hours later, the Special Forces attacked Thrawns base of operations, where Xiloun held his ground in the courtyard. He battled the Special Forces and held them off long enough for Thrawn to escape, but little did he know, that Thrawn and Gladiator had just "killed" eachother. Thrawn was dead. While he was about to kill Merrick, Xiloun was sniped in the head by Zach.

## Legacy

Xiloun's valiant efforts to fend off the Special Forces was the reason why The Gladiator managed to escape, kill Thrawn, and complete his production of the Nano-Chemicals, which ended up decimating all of Europe.

## Personality

Xiloun is cool, calm and collected. Understanding of others. When The Gladiator revealed that he had a hatred for Thrawn, Xiloun understood and decided not to tell Thrawn, despite being his closest ally. Xiloun is also valiant, willing to risk his life just to save his allies.

## Trivia

* Despite his low screentime in both seasons, Xiloun is the secondary antagonist of Season 2 because of his execution of The President, and his major presence in the final few episodes.
