* Infinite Mythos

*"I call myself Infinite Mythos when I wear the suit because– honestly, that's what I want to be. To create. I want to make a story that will transcend me, that I can pass on to someone, who will then write part of it themself before passing it on as well, and so on and on... a truly endless story that stretches across time and space– an infinite mythos."*
—Xavi Turell
**Xavier Turell Martinez** (often simply abbreviated to **Xavi Turell**) is a private detective, bounty hunter, special operations soldier and gunslinger, known as **Infinite Mythos** (**インフィニト ミソス**) when in uniform, who currently resides in Neo Arcadia as a college student.

## Biography

### Early Life

Born in Spain on April 7th, 2000 and growing up in a "rich seaside town", Xavi had a nice, unremarkable childhood until a certain incident forced him into isolation, with his family moving to Japan as he became 12 years old. Having to learn not only a new language but a whole new lifestyle as well, Xavi started high school on April 9th, 2015, where he met one of his classmates, a girl named Hisui who worked as a bounty hunter, on his first day. Training under her for three years and learning things like martial arts, marksmanship, swordsmanship, parkour, stealth, tracking and a plethora of other skills, as well as learning the basics of being a detective from fellow classmate and police intern Tatsu, Xavi would grow to become a force to be reckoned with... at the cost of his grades plummeting. Not willing to graduate without having the necessary knowledge to survive in a thriving society, he instead dropped out of school and was sent as a result to a boarding school in a coastal town called Harborview, an experience that would change his life forever, for both better and worse.

After arriving in Harborview halfway into the summer of 2018 and realizing that not only the school's, but also the town's reputation as a peaceful place had been manufactured by the media to hide the plethora of crimes that occurred there, Xavi formed a Detective Club within the school, whose members would simultaneously investigate cases on their own and serve as assistants to the understaffed and overworked police, with whom they had a partnership. It was during this time that he would meet Kanako "Kana" Hasegawa, a girl and classmate in Harborview that suffered from selective mutism and communicated through written notes, who would become his girlfriend at some point down the line. However, his life would soon change as Albert Gonzalez, a former friend from elementary school who turned on him, somehow acquired several blocks of C4 explosives and rigged them to a Ferris Wheel at a nearby amusement park, then kidnapped both Xavi's best friend from Harborview and Kana to tie them to one of the Ferris Wheel car, hoping they'd be the first to die as the wheel came loose and crushed at least dozens of people. Receiving bare bones equipment (implied to be a hooded trenchcoat, a baton and a pistol) from a mysterious benefactor and using Hisui's training, Xavi ascended the Ferris Wheel and tackled Albert from the car they stood on as it reached its highest point, impaling him on a spiked fence while Xavi himself survived. Using his coat's hood to cover his head and face, this would be considered the first public appearance of the vigilante known as Infinite Mythos.

Xavi's actions during what was later dubbed "the Ferris Wheel Incident" earned him the attention of AVALON, short for AdVAnced Legion for Offense and Navigation, a worldwide special operations group which he decided to join in order to help not just Harborview, but the whole world. Besides this, knowing that life on Harborview was dangerous and wanting to enjoy it to its fullest, he and his girlfriend Kana decided to get engaged, agreeing that the ceremony would take place sometime after they graduated high school. With this, he balanced life as a soldier and a student until his graduation, at which point he instead balanced his AVALON duties with being Harborview's only vigilante, eventually reaching the rank of Azure Knight within the organization. It was during his time as a soldier that he would meet, among others, Natural Physis, the Black Knight of AVALON; Misako Takumi, fellow AVALON Knight and a swordswoman renowned for her ability to survive entire bloodbaths unscathed without armor who would later lose her life in an explosion; and Anna Stone, a superpowered corporal from the United States army with whom he'd develop a bond of trust despite only carrying out one mission together.

At some point in 2019, AVALON was attacked by a new, mysterious organization named SHADE, led by Physis after somehow turning traitor from his original organization. While the details of the attack are unknown, it's been noted that Misako perished in the confrontation. Months later, on the night of December 19th, Mythos was approached by Physis in the dark, and while their full conversation is unknown it's implied that Physis wanted Mythos to join his organization, a request that was bluntly rejected given how their last encounter ended. As a result, the two of them ended up fighting for several hours to the point where they both fell unconscious due to their injuries, but whereas Physis was safely evacuated by his men, Mythos was actually kidnapped by a group only known as the Daijō-kan; he would then end up missing for several months, with AVALON unable to find a clue regarding his whereabouts until Anna Stone shared a mysterious message she received when attempting to request backup from him.

While it's unknown how he escaped the Daijō-kan, Xavi resurfaced on June 24th of 2020 and returned home to the rented hotel room he shared with Kanako only to find out she had been murdered, her body suffering months of decay, mutilated and a message written in blood on the wall saying "WE WARNED YOU", signed with a raven. He then came face-to-face with a mysterious figure (identified as "William" from his journal) who struck a deal with the grieving gunslinger; while William's side of the deal is unknown, Xavi's involved leaving Japan and retiring as Infinite Mythos. Unable to do anything else as he fell into a depression, he complied and left the country, travelling through the world for a while before eventually ending up in Neo Arcadia, a place he'd heard of from Anna during their mission together.

### New Life in Neo Arcadia

A short while after enrolling in college, Xavi met and befriended Olivia Connor, secretly the Arcadian Rebel known as Stella. The two quickly hit it off and became friends. He also met Diana Stone from Earth-5621, who initially mistook him for his counterpart from that same Earth, but eventually the misunderstanding was cleared up. For the most part, he lived a quiet life for a few months until Olivia suffered from overdose and was hospitalized. At this point, in an attempt to do her a favor, he went to her house and used his nanobot suit to retrieve her sketchbook for her, but in doing so he had a run-in with Jemma Sparks, Olivia's ex-girlfriend, and, not knowing who she was, used his anonymity to threaten her with emotional torture if she tried to harm Olivia in the future for whatever reason. Shortly after this, Xavi was ambushed by a bunch of thugs while on a phone call with Olivia, and was promptly saved by her alter ego Stella; however, a series of facts during this event allowed him to deduce her secret identity, at which point he asked her to be honest with him. She reluctantly admitted to being Stella, and Xavi reassured her that this didn't change anything between them; he would still be her friend for as long as she wanted him around.

On February 7th, 2021, Xavi had a run-in with notorious vigilante Almanac, who had been acquainted with his Earth-99 counterpart and wanted to confirm his identity, but the way in which he approached him led Xavi to believe that Jason was an enemy, and so he baited him into an isolated confrontation in the alleyways, where after some heated words the two of them agreed to stay out of each other's way.

### Project: Remembrance

On the night of February 14th, Xavi was doing a parkour run through the rooftops to clear his head when he came across Rebecca Ozelle, a young girl who was looking for her missing friend, a girl only known as "Arsenic" (secretly the Tiara Calinao of Earth-3). After getting her description and details on her last known sighting, Xavi promised to find her and left, scouring the most populated underground bars in search of information and coming up empty. By the time the sun rose, he was still looking for information, except this time he decided to try a police station. Trying to waltz in as if he was a detective who belonged there, he was unfortunately stopped by a detective named Constance, who agreed to help him if he did the same for her with a case of stolen metal and car shootouts. However, the case report was interrupted when they saw a highway shootout on the news, at which point Xavi didn't hesitate to put on his armor under his clothes and head to the scene, engaging in a firefight on top of a racing truck with a mysterious faceless man. Despite his superior gunslinger skills, the faceless man's inability to feel pain gave him the upper edge in the fight, resulting in Xavi suffering several injuries; however, he also rescued the man's target, a scientist named Stephen C. Goffee, and helped the Arcadian Rebels drive the other gunslinger away.

Shortly after the fight, Xavi (attired in his Infinite Mythos outfit, much to his regret) accompanied the doctor and the Arcadian Rebels to the nearby police station, where he questioned Goffee and learned that the faceless man's name was Bradley Newman and that the doctor was working for the Metahuman Investigation Division. He also found out that Goffee's son, Leviathan, was missing, and promised to find him before rejoining the other Rebels outside the interrogation room. He had another clash with Almanac over the latter's nonsensical plan (trying to find kidnapping victim Lina Fournier by calling her phone directly and expecting her to pick up) before Stella had to intervene and separate the two. Shortly after, Lina herself called Jason's number (but through another phone, since hers had been taken away) and requested a pick-up, but Mythos suspected it could be a trap and requested to go by himself.

When Mythos arrived to pick Lina up, he found her accompanied by Lishan Bao, a mysterious armed man, a gigantic beast and, surprisingly enough, Rebecca herself. Despite the armed man's repetitive requests to have Mythos identify himself by his real name, a request he was absolutely not going to indulge, he informed Rebecca of his shortcomings in the Arsenic investigation and escorted Lina and Lishan away, despite the former calling him a "Wolf Ranger rip-off" since she was expecting Almanac to come personally. However, things took a turn for the worse when Mythos was forced to take them to the police station while it was being attacked by Newman and a mysterious partner. Leaving the two girls in Almanac's hands, he rushed into the police station with Eden Gates and Sentinel, walking through the ruins of the police station before coming face-to-face with Newman and his partner: Cogent. A long conflict ensued, in which Mythos evacuated the doctor, trusting him to Almanac as well, and headed back to fight Sentinel's notoriously powerful Stand, Add-It-Up, who was being controlled by Cogent. The battle between these two was short, but grueling, with the Azure Knight having to use every tool at his disposal to survive the mindless brute's relentless barrage. Thankfully, the Stand fell apart shortly after, allowing Mythos to leap out after the escaping Newman and Cogent, who were trying to get away in a truck...

Mythos successfully managed to catch up to the truck, with Cogent and Mar frantically swerving to shake him off, but he managed to get in the back before being attacked by an invisible force. Unwilling to let Newman go free, he opened fire on the inside, critically wounding the invisible man-- whose wounds and blood allowed Mythos to see him. Determined not to let this man die, Xavi took off his armor and put it on the man, although this would come at a heavy price as Cogent ambushed him and broke his right arm before he used his powers to knock the gunslinger out, proceeding to take him with them and lock him up inside a Nova City laboratory. Xavi woke up a week later, on February 22nd, chained up to a wall in an empty cell without his glasses or equipment. Despite this and his critical injuries, he was still able to break free from his restraints, injuring himself further in the process, and escape the cell. His breakout was almost foiled by a mysterious swordsman named Miles and his partner, Mirage, but the Rebels' timely arrival allowed the injured Xavi to reason with the two, who were already planning to turn their backs on Cogent. Together with Sentinel, Stella, Eden and Lishan (the latter two combining their powers to heal his broken arm), he investigated the laboratory and found evidence of what had been done to the five test subjects there, discovering that all of them --Newman, Mirage, the beast he found earlier, the invisible man and a kid referred to as Remembrance-- were all test subjects for the Metahuman Investigation Division under Dr. Goffee's supervision and that Remembrance was actually Leviathan, the doctor's son. Feeling enraged at this betrayal, he was unable to act on it as he, along with Almanac, Stella, Eden and Lishan, ran into Mirage and Newman- the latter holding an unconscious and wounded Rebecca hostage.

As tensions rose in the room, Xavi tried to plead with the faceless man to let Rebecca go, initially offering the doctor in exchange before quickly changing his tune and pleading with him to do the right thing. However, he argued that his immortality, derived from his analgesia, granted him freedom from the consequences of his actions before opening fire on the gunslinger, who knew the other Rebels would step in to make sure no harm would come to him. A battle soon erupted, with Xavi quickly realizing that Mar was nothing but a distraction from Cogent's true plans and running off to try and find him, with Almanac closely following. The two quickly found, with Miles's help, Cogent fighting the bearded man from the forest in a hand-to-hand duel, with the Red Thrasher joining the fray as the Azure Knight snuck off to try and find his gear. However, his efforts were interrupted shortly afterwards when a gunshot rang throughout the building, with Cogent's face being partly blown off. Finally finding Arsenic (and a very distressed Rebecca), Xavi managed to get the information required to find the missing Leviathan Goffee along with Eden and Lishan, although they ran into Miles and Mirage, who wanted Levi's power to restore the former's memories. The five of them tried to decide what to do with him, but what happened afterward is unknown; however, given that Levi was seen awake weeks later, it can be theorized that a peaceful agreement was indeed reached.

### Blue in Green

#### Overture: Enter Detective, Stage Right

Even though he was still recovering from the wounds he suffered during the Project: Remembrance situation, Xavi first became involved in the conspiracy behind Matthew Drake's takeover of Neo Arcadia on March 11th, 2021, when he was mysteriously approached by Fire Spider of the Arcadian Rebels, who seemed to know of his detective past and wanted to contract his services to assist his own investigation. He was made to stay behind in Neo Arcadia while Fire Spider accompanied Eden Gates to Switzerland, and it was around this time that he tailed the Thin White Duke to Mad Gheedorah's Bistro, which secretly functioned as the nexus for Drake's Pollen supply. He infiltrated the charity gala at that same place the following day with a small group of Rebels, where he came face-to-face with Drake himself but believed him to be a victim of the brainwashing that seemed to be plaguing the Bistro at the time. He and the other Rebels were forced to escape, but not before Xavi was able to acquire a 9.8 billion dollar check from the gala as evidence.

Two days later, he ventured into the marshlands of Marsh Creek State Park in order to follow up a lead from the gala and found a mysterious ripped cage labeled as "MTUME" in a ditch close to a bunker, which appeared to belong to the Earth-3 invaders that attacked the city a while back. Surprised by this discovery, Xavi quickly donned his armor and ventured inward as Mythos, only to come up against Tiresias, who was also investigating the bunker with Almanac in hopes of rescuing Lincoln Grace, who'd been captured during the bistro infiltration. However, these two were quickly attacked by robotic enemies that forced them to retreat, although they managed to rendezvous with Almanac and helped him force a stalemate with Lincoln's captors. This confrontation was interrupted when Sheriff McCue and his partner, officer Wynton Einfrieren, arrived to arrest the villains, but Xavi quickly recognized him as Wynton as a grown-up Albert; in reality, this was only half-true, as Wynton was actually Albert's counterpart from another universe- a fact no one in the room was aware of. In a state of frenzied panic, Xavi tried to catch up to Wynton's car on foot only to trip himself up, but it was at this moment that what started as a normal investigation ended up becoming a quest of vengeance for him.

The next day, Xavi was laying low at the Hotoke no Kao restaurant owned by Drake's subsidiaries when he was suddenly approached by McCue, who gave him a paper with coded messages and let him know that he'd be delivering the encryption key to the Rebels later on, but the detective was able to decrypt it on the spot and figure out that it spoke of multiple locations vital to the mysterious conspiracy they'd gotten themselves caught up in. Promising to hold onto it until the time came, he was then ambushed by Jack of Hearts, who demanded to know what he spoke to the sheriff about. However, the detective was able to steer the conversation away from that topic and deduced that the man was not only working for the conspiracy, but also had gaseous powers of some kind. After the conversation turned out sour for the gas man, Jack of Hearts abandoned the scene, allowing Xavi to do some reconnaisance on the places he'd read about in McCue's message.

Three days later, after McCue was declared dead, Xavi was a live spectator in the debate between Wynton Einfrieren and Clark Flat for the upcoming sheriff elections, although rather than truly ask questions he simply confronted Wynton about being Albert, using newspapers from that fateful day in Harborview to try and expose him; in response, the sheriff candidate quickly spun a story about "Albert" being his brother, but the detective was able to quickly point out the inconsistencies in his story. This did not matter, however, as his actions inadvertently stirred up the crowd and turned a peaceful discussion into a violent riot. Knowing that he couldn't do anything else as things were, Xavi decided to cut his losses and leave, allowing the people of the city to make the decision for themselves.

#### Session 1: Almost Blue

On March 20th, Infinite Mythos was present at the impromptu Rebels meeting organized by Almanac and delivered McCue's paper, along with the encoded messages it included. He then proceeded to meet up with Rebecca, who'd taken up the codename of Firefly, and her new friend Aiden, who apparently saved her from a group known as the "Legionnaires". Claiming that these people had massacred her people back home, Firefly asked for Mythos's help in enacting her vengeance in exchange for her assistance in bringing down Wynton. The two of them accompanied Stella to A Go Go Pharmaceutical, where the three encountered evidence of the facilities being used to bottle mass amounts of Pollen. However, they also found evidence of Diana Stone's son, Joey, possibly being kept at Port Richmond, so after a small amount of sabotage he headed over there with the rest of the Rebels and discovered that not only was McCue still alive, but Joey had been actually kidnapped by Dr. Ponomaryova, who was being financed by Matthew Drake.

It was at this moment, as he looked through the doctor's scientific logs, that Mythos deduced that Drake was turning Neo Arcadia into a harvesting area for easily controllable metahumans. Most of his suspicions would soon be confirmed, however, as Mythos, Almanac and the other Rebels were able to meet face-to-face with Matthew Drake himself, who used the power of his stand, Mood Indigo, to maintain a perfect emotionless facade; however, while the Red Thrasher was on the verge of breaking down and beating the man up for his crimes, the Azure Knight was only interested in questioning him and probing for weaknesses, only for Flag to reveal that Drake had a second son- a revelation that appeared to shock the businessman. With this new information, Mythos claimed that Drake's empire would not last forever, as he was so focused on the big picture that he ignored the little details, and proceeded to leave, preparing himself for the conflict that was to come just as Wynton Einfrieren was elected as Neo Arcadia's new sheriff.

The very next day, Mythos called for help from an anonymous yet trusted source only referred to as "MC" who helped McCue hack into Spanish Key Shipping's logs, revealing that a shipment was going through town at that exact time. Accompanied by Almanac and Firefly, the three of them set out to check it out and see what was in it only to be attacked by the truck's driver, Charlotte Nguyen, who seemed to have prior history with the Rebels. Despite this setback, Mythos was able to sneak into the truck's passenger seat and retract his armor to show he wasn't a threat once the driver returned, but then discovered what the shipment was: cannons made out of cacti, concealed inside air purifiers. Taking pictures of this shipment for later use, Xavi was then approached by Charlotte after she returned to the truck, but he simply tried to establish himself as a friend to her and told her that he could tell him about her problems if she needed to talk to someone. While their discussion was soon interrupted by a water creature rising from the docks, Xavi was able to walk out of that alive and perhaps with a new friend.

The day after that, Mythos slowly began to track down Charlotte's shipment towards Fournier Frontier, only to be confronted by Matthew Drake personally. The two of them engaged in a quick philosophical discussion before Joni Jacobson suddenly appeared on the scene, shooting Drake from behind and forcing a small moment of respite that allowed the gunslinger to attempt and restrain Drake, but an EMP soon put an end to that as Mythos's armor fell apart. Joni suddenly began firing on the man, but ended up missing most of her shots- which allowed Xavi to fill the "gaps" with his own silenced pistol in an attempt to make it look to potential eyewitnesses like Joni was the only one who shot him. Drake managed to escape the hail of bullets, but Xavi walked out of that confrontation with a key witness and an all-access key to Limehouse Penitentiary. With this new resource, the detective came up with a new plan:

Infiltrate the prison to interrogate Roger David about his involvement with Matthew Drake.

### Session 2: Both Sides Now

Not too long after formulating his prison break plan and acquiring something to carry it out, Mythos met up with the other vigilantes at their underground base once more to discuss how they were going to break into Limehouse Penitentiary, but then had to break off a confrontation after Wolf Ranger attacked Joni due to their shared past. Explaining that infighting would only end up in all of their deaths, the Azure Knight quickly broke up the fight and then proceeded to follow McCue with the rest as he guided them to the prison through the sewer tunnels. While they were caught by Officer Calvin, it turned out he was on their side as he gave them the schematics of the prison and asked them to bring Wynton down. With this new information, everything seemed to be ready until a new complication came along: not only was Wynton himself on-site at the prison supervising the arrival of a new prisoner... this prisoner was none other than Arsenic, whom Mythos had still been looking for all this time. Forced to choose between his personal vengeance and his promise to Rebecca, he eventually decided to help rescue Arsenic as he infiltrated the prison with Almanac and Chieftain, a fairly new arrival on the city.

Using his newest tool, the Chameleon Nanobots, to infiltrate the prison as a guard, Xavi was able to make his way downstairs and meet up with Lincoln and Arsenic, who told him of their plan to delete the latter's criminal records to make sure Drake's people wouldn't go after her again. Even though he had an all-access key to do it, however, he still had to go up against Yeezus and his time dilating Stand, but thankfully Xavi was able to come up with a cunning stratagem to knock him out and remove the time dilation from Limehouse. Once he deleted Tiara's criminal records, he proceeded to head down to Roger David's location only to see him abducted by Wynton in a suit of armor, but he couldn't even dwell on it as he was forced into a full-on battle between the Arcadian Rebels and the Roman Legionnaires under Drake's control. Even though he managed to help Firefly take down a single Legionnaire, using it as an incentive to keep himself motivated for an unspecified conflict he was preparing for (but implied to be a fight against Physis and SHADE), the fight was quickly interrupted by Tiresias, who broke into the prison to ask the Legionnaires about something known as "the Siren's Curse". Using this as a distraction, Mythos quickly made his way back upstairs to try and retrieve Yeezus as a prisoner, but was instead kidnapped himself by Wynton.

He woke up an unknown amount of time later in Mad Gheedorah's Bistro, stripped of his equipment, hanging upside-down from a meat hook with a potato sack tied over his head and with none other than Madvillain, Gheedorah's alter ego, preparing to interrogate and torture him. However, he was able to not only withstand the torture and resist interrogation, but also turn the tables on his interrogator by having him open up about his wishes and asking him to stand down so that the Rebels could deal with Drake's empire. However, Gheedorah believed himself unable to escape his overseer's clutches and headed upstairs to confront an intruder, who turned out to be Wolf Ranger. In the meantime, Xavi used all of his willpower to escape by dislocating both of his legs and slipping out of his bindings, then crawled upstairs with all his might and, once he found Lincoln and Gheedorah both unconscious, loaded them into the former's pick-up truck with the aid of Yeezus, who seemed to be helping for the time being, then drove off to Port Richmond to get his things back.

### The Plane Hijacking

On the night of April 17th, Xavi boarded Neo Arcadia Airlines' transcontinental flight 874 in order to get to Spain in time for his brother's birthday, but the flight was hijacked by Tyrone Lockwood, a superhuman mercenary, and Ulyana Voronin, a dangerous gun-for-hire, who seemed to be competing over some contract. Despite his reluctancy to use the nanobot suit, Xavi suited up out of sight and fought the two mercenaries in a duel that apparently ended up with Tyrone's death and Ulyana's arrest. Xavi would later seem to be affected by this incident, although it seemed like it was more due to the heat this could bring to him rather than the fact he killed a person.

## Personality

Xavi's a kind, albeit secretive man. Being a part of AVALON, a secret organization, he has to take measures to ensure that no strangers figure out who he works for, but he's nonetheless willing and able to help those who need it at any time. While he has shown signs of being quite intelligent, deducing Olivia Connor's secret identity from one single incident, he has also allowed his emotions to overcome his rationale at critical times, leading him to make unwise and dangerous decisions like going off after dangerous superhumans on his own or attempting to get himself arrested for the sake of getting closer to a target; however, he knows that the priority is protecting people who need it. He's also quite sociable and talkative, often being the first one to strike up a conversation.

However, hidden behind all this lies a great deal of guilt and insecurity in his own skills, particularly his ability to save others. Having lost both his wife and Anna Stone, two people important to him, as well as other people during his time as a detective in Harborview, the losses have left him wondering if he can actually save people at all; he knows he shouldn't stop trying, but he wonders if what he does helps save lives in the slightest. This negative thought process slowly started peaking once he started making constant contact with superhumans in Neo Arcadia, leaving him wondering if he's even useful *at all* when there's actual superhumans left and right and feeling like his own powers are useless in actual practical situations. He's also afraid of losing people he cares about without being able to do anything in the slightest; this fear stems from knowing that, had he not been in captivity while Kana was being murdered, he could've saved her. While he doesn't show it, he also worries about what those whom he knew and died think of him in the other side (despite not being religious, he believes there's a chance that dead people go to some manner of afterlife), one of his main concerns being that they might be disappointed in him for not doing enough. This pushes him to overcome his limits when it comes to saving lives, no matter how injured he might be. However, as a soldier, he also has no problem with killing people if necessary, although he considers this a last resort only to turn to in certain situations.

Additionally, he seems to also have somewhat of a reckless streak, but this is actually intentionally self-destructive behavior bordering on subconscious suicidal tendencies. Believing that he's lost everything worth fighting for, he tends to provoke his opponents into attacking him even when he's unarmored, so they will try harder to shoot him down. Nonetheless, he takes far too many risks, more than a sane person should, probably so he can die faster, although his survival instinct manages to take over at the last moment, allowing him to overcome these lapses in judgement mostly on time to fix things.

## Powers and Abilities

*"I prefer handguns, but I've got spec ops training in most basic forms of weaponry. I'm also hella mean with a sword, can send my mind through time, got detective skills, I play videogames like you wouldn't believe and I got access to a space station. So, y'know, nothing otherworldly."*
—Infinite Mythos to Chieftain
### Powers

*"Think like a database for all of existence, for every single creature across time and space. Everything that happens, be it in the past, present or future, is recorded there."*
—Xavi Turell describing the morphogenetic field to Olivia Connor
* **Morphogenetic Field:** Xavi has a connection to something called the morphogenetic field, a field of information invisible to the naked eye that seems to work as an archive for everything that has or ever will exist, be it knowledge, actual events or even people. He can tap into this field in order to send his conscience into the past or future; as long as a moment in time has existed and his body is still alive within it, he can send his mind to it, effectively travelling back and forth in time. However, he cannot travel to alternate universes or the far future with it, as he can only travel a few weeks back and/or forward to events rooted in the same timeline, allowing him to make minor changes only. Furthermore, this power only triggers when his hypothalamus receives signals from his autonomic nervous system-- in order words, when he's in danger of dying, or believes he is. However, it is also possible to trigger a jump through artificial means, such as when he asked Olivia to send signals directly into his brain with a special device to let him jump to a random point in time so she could see how his powers affected his brain.
* **Magic:** After starting a training regime with Sydney Gates in late September 2022, Xavi has begun to start using magic against metahuman or otherwise enhanced opponents. While he's so far only mastered teleportation magic, it is stated that he's capable of learning several other types if he so wishes. It is possible, given how he once used his teleportation to move someone across the ocean in a fit of anger, that his emotional state directly affects his magical power, which would make it similar to Eden Gates's own chakra-based abilities; given that the magic training was originally meant for Eden as well, it's possible the two powersets share a common root.
	+ **Teleportation:** After learning the spell from Sydney, Xavi can now teleport himself and other items at will. By mentally visualizing both the item/s he wishes to teleport, himself included, and the location he wants to move them to, he can perform a very minor muscular movement to immediately relocate them to the desired place. Xavi likes to conceal this subtle movement by swiping either hand in front of the target item just as he's performing it, giving the illusion that he's "erasing" said items, but he can just as easily use the spell without doing it. Originally, the spell required a verbal incantation, but after a month of constant daily practice he was able to bypass this requisite.

### Armor Capabilities

* The suit's standard HUD
* The suit's HUD, showing the vitals monitor with a mild injury on the torso and a critical arm injury
* The suit displaying the map on its HUD
1/3
* **Heads Up Display (HUD):** Since the helmet covers the user's entire face, the Mk. 1 Suit possesses an internal heads-up display (HUD) that displays multiple elements. The HUD's minor elements, such as icons, text font, colors and the like, can be customized at the user's discretion, but is overall very minimalist to ensure the user's vision isn't clouded. In the Mk. 2, which doesn't have a helmet, the HUD is instead displayed by small AR (Augmented Reality) projectors hidden on the inside of the suit's collar.
* **Heartbeat and Vitals Monitoring:** The suit can monitor the wearer's heartbeat and vitals, so whenever one of their limbs is injured, a pop-up of a humanoid figure will momentarily appear to highlight the wound/s; the color of the highlight depend on the severity (ranging from yellow to red in order of severity from lowest to highest). In the HUD, these are displayed on the top left and center right respectively.
* **Armor Integrity Monitoring:** The armor's physical integrity is indicated by a bar, much like a videogame character's health bar, that goes down or up depending on its condition. Displayed on the top center of the HUD.
* **Communications:** The suit possesses a communications device that broadcasts sound into the helmet's earpieces, providing impeccable sound quality. The comms device can be synched to multiple frequencies at the same time, and the user can switch between them at will. The comms icons are displayed as a top-to-bottom list on the center left.
* **IFF Proximity Radar:** The suit possesses a Mode 5 IFF (Identification, Friend or Foe) radar that can detect nearby allies by automatically sending a signal to specific devices, before receiving and tracking the signal they send back as a response. As of February 2021, this radar also allows him to track nearby members of the Arcadian Rebels by sending a signal to their comms devices, having obtained the necessary frequency to access them. The radar's displayed on the bottom left.
* **Weapon Display and Ammo Counter:** The HUD interface will display an icon of the weapon currently held by the wearer, as well as a counter showing the current ammunition left on the magazine; if the weapon is instead energy based and requires something along the lines of a battery, it will display a percentage instead, with it changing accordingly as the weapon's energy wears off. If either the weapon or ammunition type are unknown or cannot be identified, the HUD will display a question mark in its place instead. Both elements are shown on the top right.
* **Audio Player:** The suit can play locally stored audio, such as .mp3 files, directly on the helmet's earpieces, although the audio quality depends on the file itself. While it can be used to listen to recordings, Xavi uses it to listen to music more often than not. On the HUD, the file's name and duration is displayed on the top right, under the ammo counter.
* **Autopilot:** Accessible only through a custom emergency command set by the wearer, the suit can enter an automatic piloting mode where it moves by itself and is able to follow somewhat simple orders from people who register as allies (this mostly relies on the IFF Proximity Radar, but certain users can be authorized independently of this). However, if done properly it can also be set to follow more complex commands, such as fighting a specific opponent; this was shown on February 15th, 2021, when an injured Xavi sent the suit to fight Mar by itself.
* **Map Display:** The suit HUD can expand the radar on the bottom left into a full map that displays the local area around the wearer, along with weather data, geographical and residential census information, and customizable icons for allies to display their location more precisely. Additionally, it can also mark the most optimal route from one point to another, even going as far as to show the distance between them and the estimated time left to get there; to top it all off, the optimal route and remaining time change depending on whether the user's on foot or in a vehicle, being able to account for routes accessible by ground and sea vehicles. However, this map takes up the entirety of the user's field of vision, so it's not to be used in battle or during activities that require them to see, such as driving; to account for this, a line indicating the route to follow will appear on the bottom left radar, and both the distance and time left will be displayed under the heartbeat monitor on the top left.
* **Artificial Intelligence Support:** Both the Mk. 1 and Mk. 2 suits are compatible with artificial intelligences, with a custom icon appearing on the HUD to show that one is installed. While the Mk. 1 doesn't have an AI, the Mk. 2 has Melody, a self-aware AI splintered off from Olivia Connor's own AI, Chippy. Melody seems to have a proper personality, going by female pronouns and establishing a friendly relationship with Xavi, although the extents of both her abilities and her control over the suit, if existent, are unknown.
* **Enhanced Durability:** Mythos's armor provides him with bulletproof protection, and is resilient enough to withstand physical blows from an enhanced opponent for three hours straight.
* **Enhanced Mobility:** The soles of Mythos's boots allow him to not only slide on solid surfaces at speeds higher than most sports cars, regardless of gravitational pull, but also bounce several feet high in the air just as quickly.

### Abilities

Xavi impressed Anna Stone with his skills, which she deemed "remarkable," particularly his speed, accuracy and quick thinking, which she said were "out of this world."

*"I'm just a soldier. Same as you. A soldier fighting in a war I never wanted to be involved with."*
—Xavi Turell to Anna Stone
* **Peak Human Condition:** As an agent of AVALON and the disciple of one of the world's greatest bounty hunters, Xavi is in top physical condition, having spent three years undergoing a strict training regime. He is lean, fast, agile, and surprisingly strong despite his frame; he was strong enough to break a biker's wrist like a twig and kick the head off of a training dummy. He also had the endurance to engage Natural Physis, a man with at least one cybernetic prosthetic limb, in a duel for three hours, although this can also probably be partially attributed to the armor's durability. This feat was later improved upon when he fought Tiresias in the Neo Arcadian Museum of Art with the Arcadian Rebels for seven hours straight, even dealing the final blow that took him down.
	+ **Peak Human Speed:** Xavi is incredibly fast by human standards.
	+ **Peak Human Reflexes:** Xavi's reflexes, concentration and perception are at peak human condition, possibly almost bordering on superhuman levels. He's capable of consistently navigating the streets and rooftops of a metropolis like Neo Arcadia in a suit of armor that allows him to generally move as fast as a sports car, this speed only increasing when he acquired his Mk. 2 suit, and can even quickly dodge gunfire at close range while standing on unstable ground, as evidenced when he fought Mar on top of a moving truck speeding down the highway and managed to dodge his opponent's bullets even as the truck swerved around. Furthermore, he was able to corner Robin Hood in a rooftop chase by bouncing around in apparently random patterns, using items like satellite dishes, air vents, chimneys and more to maintain and increase his speed to the point where the thief was unable to keep up with him, a feat that required split-second decision making and reaction time. Additionally, during the Rebels' raid on the headquarters of a renegade military unit known as the Stalkers, Xavi was able to pilot his Mk. 1 suit remotely and pick off several soldiers at once with a stolen weapon without taking damage while also accounting for input lag on his suit's actions; this proves his reflexes are good enough to identify whether someone is friend or foe, prepare his weapon, aim for an optimal weak spot, open fire and still dodge incoming attacks, all while the enemy is still taking aim at him.

*"Sorry lady, but when it comes to handguns, you can't beat me."*
—Infinite Mythos to Ulyana Voronin
* **Expert Marksman:** Xavi is a master gunslinger, to the point of calling himself "the Ultimate Gunslinger" in the field– a nickname which even Anna Stone deemed accurate. He is highly skilled in wielding his dual handguns and rather accurate, as he relieved Ulyana Voronin of her pistol by shooting it out of her grip in a split-second situation without even aiming down the sights and shot Tyrone Lockwood 22 times without missing once. Most importantly, during the events of the Drake Conspiracy, he was capable of making a trickshot from a flying snowmobile while upside down against a coupler connecting a moving monorail to the beam it was attached to in a single try, demonstrating an uncanny ability to calculate trajectories that allow him to make impossible shots. It is unknown, however, whether he can use other kinds of firearms with this level of expertise.
* **Master Acrobat:** Xavi is an accomplished traceur, being able to navigate through the environment with ease. He was able to catch up to Rebecca Ozelle in February, was able to jump from tree branch to tree branch with an injured Ember Uchiha in his arms without complications and managed to keep up and, for brief moments, outmaneuver Robin Hood during a rooftop chase. Xavi can also use his acrobatic skills in a fight, as seen when he used a tilt-a-whirl headscissors takedown against Eiron during a spar.
* **Skilled Martial Artist:** Xavi seems to hold some degree of experience in martial arts, as he was able to hold his own against both Ulyana Voronin and Tyrone Lockwood in physical combat at the same time without any weapons. His true degree of experience in this field is unknown, but he's known to have been trained in Karate, Muay Thai, Taekwondo, Krav Maga, Judo, Jujutsu, Aikido, Kenjutsu, Iaijutsu and combat shooting. In addition, he tends to favor gun fu movements while in the field, suggesting a high degree of general expertise in the area of close quarters combat.
	+ **Sword Mastery:** Xavi is trained in multiple forms of Japanese swordsmanship, including Kenjutsu (specifically Ono-ha Ittō-ryū and Yagyū Shinkage-ryū), Iaijutsu and the Aiki-ken form of Aikido. As he said to Chieftain, he is "mean with a sword." He was able to dual-wield both a katana and a rapier to strike down Tiresias, and was good enough with just a katana alone that he was able to take down more than a dozen armed opponents without suffering injuries.
* **Stealth:** Xavi is well-versed in stealth, being able to break into Xackery Brooks' house without picking any locks or breaking any windows, unaided by his armor. He was also able to conceal his presence from both Militant and Almanac, the latter having presumably scouted the area they were in, without consciously trying, suggesting he's learned to conceal his presence subconsciously.
* **Multilingualism:** Xavi speaks English and Japanese, having learned the latter when he lived in Japan, as well as flawless Spanish. He also knows Morse code.
* **Meditation:** Xavi knows meditation techniques to prepare for battle.
* **Indomitable Will:** Xavi has proven himself to be a man of conviction and dedication, willing to follow up on his goals by almost any means necessary. In 2021, he went through the events of Remembrance's kidnapping (where he fought Mar twice, Cogent and Add-It-Up back-to-back without healing in a single day) and practically the entirety of the Drake Conspiracy (where he fought Drake's construction bots, evaded several facilities' security details while scouting them, broke into Limehouse Penitentiary, was captured and tortured before escaping, fought Nathaniel Cole without his nanites, dodged Jack of Hearts's gaseous form while piloting a flying car and swam through an overflowing river while fighting sentient zombie vines) without receiving any medical treatment, even resorting to puppeteering his own body through nanites to keep going when his body couldn't keep up any further. Even when he was held captive for a week by Cogent, he managed to escape his cell despite having a broken arm and being unable to move properly, calling upon his friends and family's memories to help him push through the intense physical agony, and continued with the mission despite only receiving minimal aid for his broken arm.

## Weaknesses

* **Human Vulnerabilities:** Under his suit, Xavi continues to be human, and even though his body's in peak condition his physical resilience is not superhuman. Without his suit, he's still vulnerable to any other injuries a human may suffer, although his willpower often allows him to push past the pain... to a point. His mind also isn't protected against telepathy or mind control, save for when he wears his Mk. 1 suit helmet.
* **Bad Eyesight:** Even though he's a master gunslinger, Xavi possesses really bad eyesight, having both astigmatism and myopia (near-sightedness). He wears prescription glasses, and his Mk. 1 Suit's helmet visor is also designed specifically for his eyes, but if both are removed he can barely see anything, unless he squints his eyes. However, doing this gives him a headache over time, as his eyes cannot handle the strain.

## Techniques

*"Hotobashire, Infinito Misosu! (迸れ、インフィニト ミソス!)"*
—Infinite Mythos's battle cry
* Taijutsu
* Special

* **Karate:**
* **Muay Thai:**
* **Taekwondo:**
* **Krav Maga:** Xavi uses the Israel Defense Forces' version of Krav Maga, rather than the one taught to civilians.
* **Judo:**
* **Jujutsu:**
* **Aikido:** Xavi is trained in the Aiki-ken and Ki Aikido forms.
* **Kenjutsu:** Xavi is trained in the Ono-ha Ittō-ryū and Yagyū Shinkage-ryū styles of Japanese swordsmanship. His preferred stance is kasumi-no-kamae (霞の構え), signaling his high degree kenshi status.
	+ **Takumi Style:** Xavi learned Misako Takumi's family style of swordsmanship, which emphasizes speed, agility and repeatedly attacking his opponent. He has combined the Takumi style of swordsmanship with other disciplines with which he is familiar.
		- **One-Handed Technique: 36-Slash Sonic Strike:**
		- **One-Handed Technique: Sandstorm Slash:**
* **Iaijutsu:** Xavi can draw his sword with incredible speed.
* **Combat Shooting:**

- **アームドブルー/Āmudoburū/Azure Strike:** Xavi starts bouncing around in a closed space until he becomes nothing more than a blue blur, at which point he draws his weapons in midair, upside-down, and either guns down his enemies or shoots their weapons to disarm them.

## Equipment

### Attire

* The wristwatch device used to store the Infinite Mythos suits
* The Mk. 1 Suit, most likely received from AVALON
* The Mk. 2 Suit, a present from Olivia Connor
1/3
* **Wristwatch**: While at first glance it looks like a simple wristwatch, this is actually a compact storage unit for special nanobot hives, as well as a remote control device to transmit simple commands to it through dials and buttons on the sides. The face of the watch is actually opaque and doesn't show the time, and it has a blue LED circle surrounding it, while the inside is actually hollow, since it's a compartment space for the nanobots.
	+ **Infinite Mythos Mk. 1 Suit**: A nanobot hive granted to Xavi by an unknown party (presumed to be AVALON, however) that can turn into a suit. The suit is controlled remotely via a device that looks like a wristwatch, which also doubles as a portable storage unit for easy access and deployment. While the suit is normally worn over the user's clothes, it can also be worn under; this works especially well for covert missions, since the user can be protected by a layer of armor easily concealed beneath a casual attire. The suit's special boots also allow him to bounce around and slide on non-slippery surfaces, which combined with his acrobatics makes for an incredibly fast way to move around the city. Its helmet also covers the whole head and has a voice modulator to disguise the user's voice, preventing people from figuring out their identity.
	+ **Infinite Mythos Mk. 2 Suit**: An improved, redesigned version of the Mk. 1 designed mainly by Olivia Connor using technology from the Moon Kingdom. This nanobot hive is noticeably more durable than the previous suit, as it was able to shrug off shots that previously injured Xavi, but it's also more agile, allowing him to move and slide several times faster than before, to the point that he becomes an actual blur in other people's eyes when leaping around. The suit can also resist falling from high altitudes with minimal damage, and allows its wearer to survive explosions that would otherwise maim or kill a normal human being. Additionally, it comes equipped with an autonomous and self-aware AI, Melody, that checks his vitals and heals his wounds using a special device when they fall down to dangerous levels. Surprisingly enough, this version of the suit does not have a helmet, instead exposing Xavi's face, although it's likely that there's measures in place to prevent his identity from being exposed.

### Weaponry

* One of Infinite Mythos's dual handguns
* One of Xavi's 5.7 USGs for emergencies
* The Shōrai, originally owned by Misako Takumi
1/3
* **Custom Pistols:** Xavi carries a pair of custom high-caliber pistols, made from scratch. Both of them are black with light blue details and have cyan LED lines adorning the sides of the barrel. While they're physically reminiscent of a Glock 37, they seem to have the stopping power of a .50 AE Desert Eagle, while their firing rate and capacity are much higher, being able to hold 11 bullets each (as opposed to the standard 7 on a normal Deagle with AE cartridges or the 10 rounds on a G37 with .45 GAP rounds) and fire them at much faster speeds with a lot less recoil, to the point where one can empty both guns in less than two seconds without losing much accuracy. On a flight from Neo Arcadia to Madrid, he used them to shoot Ulyana Voronin's pistol out of her hand and gunned down Tyrone Lockwood. These weapons are also powerful enough to pierce through Sentinel's Stand, Add-It-Up, a creature known for its durability.
* **FN Five-seveN:** Xavi also uses a pair of 5.7 USG variant military-grade pistols for emergencies, should his standard guns be unavailable or unusable.
* **CZ P-10 C:** Xavi carries a suppressed pistol when operating undercover, usually carrying it under his jacket or hoodie. He notably carried it to Mad Gheedorah's Bistro during a charity event, although he did not need to use it at the time, and it was small enough to escape detection by security.
* **Taran Tactical Innovations Pit Viper:** *To be added*

*"A weapon is only dangerous when its wielder makes it so. Are you going to give me a reason to?"*
—Xavi Turell to Eiron
* **Shōrai (将来):** Xavi is in possession of one of Misako Takumi's dual katanas. While he mostly keeps it in his apartment's dojo and does not appear to have any intentions of using it often in combat, he does bring it out for emergencies, important confrontations or as a way to destress. He carried it to the final confrontation with Matthew Drake in the Neo Arcadian Museum of Art, and his skill with it was good enough that he was able to strike at Tiresias's nerve clusters with enough precision and power to temporarily paralyze him.
* **Legionnaire's Spear:** An ancient Roman spear taken from Drusilla Caseo, last survivor of the Roman Legion, during her fight with Rebecca Ozelle.
* **Bokken:** Xavi brought wooden swords to train with Skyler and Jason in the forest.
* **Creon's Blade:** Xavi acquired possession of Creon's Blade during the fight with Tiresias in the Neo Arcadian Museum of Art, after Almanac's electromagnetic pulse froze the sludge in it. He was able to dual-wield it efficiently along with the Shōrai, using both weapons to non-lethally strike down John, and the rapier is now currently in his possession.
