Attunements: Ofanite of the Wind, Malakite of the Wind, Passage, Swipe, Library Card, Angel of Lost Paperwork. Note that Xavier's little excursion could be seen as a use of Destiny's Right of Passage Attunement, but it's just as likely that the Library itself arranged matters. He's certainly never shown any sign of having it since.

Angel of Lost Paperwork: Xavier recognizes on sight any form, record, entry or file that would be better off lost, spindled, mutilated, altered, or destroyed. With a Will roll, he can automatically accomplish that happy state of affairs.

Rites: Effectively ruin a piece of paperwork that will, if left alone, serve the cause of Hell. Xavier gets 1 Essence for each 100 pieces of paperwork (note that this includes all forms of organized data) so destroyed, and he may use this Attunement as many times as he likes per day.

Relics: Fiery Sword/3, two reliquary/6 (pen and pencil)

Yes, Xavier is a dead man walking. Did you have a point, or did you just feel like wasting some oxygen?

The angel didn't expect to be this much of a target when he accepted the Word: interference, sure, but Lost Paperwork isn't exactly earthshaking enough to be worth the heat he got. However, his new task was enough to get both Kronos' and Asmodeus' noses seriously out of joint. It would seem that they took it personally. Petty, sour misanthropes that they are, they decided to vent their spleen by having Xavier taken out loudly and publicly - just to make the point. They didn't get him - quite - but their agents did soul-kill a few angels in Xavier's vicinity - one of whom the angel was quite fond.

Never do an enemy a small injury. Xavier had plenty of time while in Trauma to muse upon what happened to his friends and lover, and came back quite mad, in any number of ways. It was a useful madness, however. First he went and talked to Janus, who smiled nastily and gave him permission. Then he went and talked to Michael, who smiled even more nastily and gave him the supplies that the angel had asked for. Then he went and talked to Yves, who looked in his books, sighed, gave him the Library Card Attunement and stepped out of his way. Finally, Xavier walked into the Library, calmly announced to the empty air what he wanted to do, walked through a doorway at random - and stepped into the middle of Kronos' Archive.

Xavier doesn't know how much Michael paid for explosive incendiaries that work on the celestial plane, but however much it was, it would have been cheap at twice the price.

Needless to say, one angel can't hope to burn down the Archive all by himself, no matter how transcendentally pissed off he is. One angel can, however, if sufficiently motivated, quick and militantly indifferent to such petty concerns as survival, burn his way through a lot of files. Once Xavier had used up half his ordinance load, he grabbed another door at random and lo! there he was in Asmodeus' little playground, which was even less ready to receive him (after all, what lunatic would attack two Princes' sanctums in succession?). The Game's files burn even better than those of Fate's; so did the Demon of Misfiling, once Xavier found him.

Xavier's not sure how he got back: there was a red haze across his vision pretty much the entire time, and he was assuredly the worse for wear when Servitors of Archives found him wandering the library, high on the pure destruction that he had just evoked. It's pretty much agreed among the Host that the angel had come as close as you can to Jumping without going over the line: not something that an Ofanite should repeat.

A prudent angel would have stayed in Heaven. Xavier loaded up on Essence and went right down to the Corporeal plane, where he used a few files randomly 'borrowed' along the way to seriously discommode certain of Fate and the Game's Earthly operations. He's got a life expectancy that you could measure in weeks (Kronos and Asmodeus want him dead. Now), but who cares? When all is said and done, who really cares?

Personally … well, Xavier stopped having a personality while he was still in Trauma. About the last vestige left of that smiling, easygoing angel is a grim determination to not let anyone else be around to take a bullet for him. By his own choice, he doesn't have friends anymore. Dead men don't have friends. He's careful about dissonance, too - it'll just get in the way - but he doesn't really expect it to be too important in the long run. Worse comes to worse, he'll just turn it into Discord. Heck, he already acts Angry.

Despite his new loner status (which makes the Inquisition very, very nervous), Xavier actually has a sort of secret Patron. Unfortunately, said Patron's from the wrong side. When Kobal heard about the Angel of Lost Paperwork's demonstration of what a real insult looks like, reliable rumor reports that the Prince of Dark Humor cracked the happiest, most joyful, most beatific smile that anyone's seen on his face since the First Rebellion. Kobal wants this angel around, kicking and blowing up Kronos' and Asmodeus' schemes and property for just a bit longer. He doesn't even want Xavier to Fall: it'll just make the angel less effective, and it's not like it'll keep him alive longer anyway…
