**Xiomara Amsel** is an ally in the *Cerberus High* series. Originally an antagonist, Xiomara commanded The Brazen Youths league of assassins before turning over to Kazuki Akai's side.

## Background

### Early Life

Xiomara was born to parents Zoella and an Adalard Amsel. After Zoella's death, little four-year-old Xiomara became the parental figure of her newborn little brother Axel.

Xiomara soon grew tired of her humdrum life in the cabin and ran way to Cerberus High where she was able to forge a whole assassin league despite her young age.

## Appearance

Xiomara Amsel is a svelte female of short stature who possesses dark skin, ragged waist-length raven hair, and pointed ears similar to that of her younger brother Axel. She has very short and thin eyebrows. Her most striking feature is her vacant blood-red eyes that are accentuated by her very sharp black eyeliner.

### Cerberus High

Xiomara’s main attire consists of a cross wrap halter top that is dark violet on the right side and purple on the left. Underneath this, Xiomara wears a dark sheer bodysuit that reaches down to her thighs. She also wears a lilac denim skirt with dark violet shorts. She sports a pair of purple knee-length cross-tied boots with dark violet knee pads. For accessories, Xiomara dons thin silver armbands on each arm as well as on her thighs and black wristbands. She wears a pair of small upside-down silver triangular earrings and a dark violet choker that features that same upside-down triangle jewel at the center. Xiomara keeps her hair slicked back with copious amounts of hair gel. She doesn’t bother keeping her bangs spiked up after being defeated by Kazuki, giving her a more friendlier look.

When she commanded The Brazen Youths, Xiomara wore a purple armband on her left arm with the assassin league’s insignia.

### Cerberus High II

Xiomara is pregnant during most of this iteration with her baby bump being halfway concealed by her white poncho that is open in the middle. This poncho of hers possesses shoulder cut-outs with the hems being a very dark burgundy and features two straps in a formation of a crisscross below her bust. Under this, she wears a long lilac shirt that reveals much of her cleavage, black half gloves, a silver band choker, and silver triangle earrings. Xiomara's thin, capri pants are dark violet and she wears black, high-heeled sandals with ankle straps. Since her brother Axel is still marred from Rey's attack after all these years, it can be assumed that she possesses a scar where her heart is.

## Personality

Xiomara is an individual with a calculating mind and a dark charisma which explains how she managed to forge a whole league of assassins in just her freshman year.

She often does a thing that Ember has dubbed her “Full Moon Monologue” where Xiomara goes to the window and just stares up at the full moon while having an inner monologue.

Despite serving as Axel’s parental figure growing up, Xiomara was just as neglectful and cold to him as their father. The only time she would put her book down and actually tend to her younger brother was when he got hurt. Her tactics in raising Axel may seem harsh but in retrospect, her heart was in the right place. On the first full moon of a werewolf’s 13th birthday, their bodies acquire the ability to heal any wound it sustains with the only attack they could ultimately die from is one that damages their heart or brain.

## Abilities and Powers

* **Were-form:** Xiomara is able to transform into an anthropomorphic wolf at will. She barely uses her werewolf abilities due to her deeming it to be a waste of energy.
* **Energy Detection**
* **Healing Factor:** Being a werewolf, Xiomara’s body is able to heal any wound it sustains but at the cost of a lot of her physical strength. The only attack she can ultimately die from is one that takes damage to her heart or brain.
* **Enhanced Speed**
* **Submission Specialist:** Xiomara is shown to be skilled in performing submission holds including a Pallo Special on Axel and a Rear-naked Chokehold on Kazuki.

## Trivia

* Xiomara's choker is the same one that Axel wore in the Prototype comic.

## Quotes

* (to Axel Amsel) “Oh, brother, you know I didn’t come here for you.”
