Xerx is a tall, slender man with long light-colored hair. He wears a beaded chain around his head with a small pendant hanging at the center of his forehead.

He wears a light-colored robe with dark crosses along the hem and the high collar. His light-colored boots have crosses at the toes that extend up his shin. Over this he wears a long light-colored cape and his squad robe.

Personality
Xerx is considered virtuous and a saint, but he will not stand for his order to be insulted. Xerx is later revealed to be cold and abusive which are traits of a corrupt Magic Knight, when he refuses to release the granddaughter of an old lady and instead offers to end the woman's suffering by killing her.

Biography
Xerx is stationed along the Clover Kingdom's border. When he and his subordinate return for the Royal Knights Selection Exam, they are approached by a woman looking for her granddaughter, but Xerx refuses and offers to kill the woman instead. Afterwards they are impeded by Zora Ideale, who witnessed the exchange. The rogue insults the vice-captain, so Xerx attacks Zora with Ice Magic. Zora defeats Xerx and removes his squad robe.

Later at the exam, Xerx is teamed up with Mimosa Vermilion and Asta, but Zora arrives and takes the spot, claiming to be Xerx.

After the exam, Xerx is found still lying unconscious in the city.
