Description
High priest Xeno is the obligatory evil conspiratorial advisor that all benevolent kings are provided when they ascend a throne.

Though he has the posture and accoutrements of a magician, no one has ever actually witnessed him spell-casting, will-working, sooth-saying, or even hedge-trimming. Xeno is a truly wise priest-king, using his position and authority to do as little as possible.

It is this very immobility that is the source of Xeno's power. He simply doesn't -need- to attack an opponent. The priest-kings of Gor are adept at mind manipulation and pain through intimidation. Simple eye contact with him is enough to cause hallucinations, internal bleeding and in rare cases, fatal psoriasis.

The only way to battle Xeno is to keep your back to him at all times and never look directly at him. As many fallen heroes have found, it is really tough to hit a guy when you are facing the other way.
