Xavier Chen is a member of the Assassin Order and the head of a cell operating in California.
In late 2015, he and his team endeavored to verify the true allegiance of Joseph, a respected Assassin that had been believed dead by the Brotherhood. To do so, they recruited Charlotte de la Cruz and had her relive the genetic memories of her ancestor, Tom Stoddard.
Biography
Early life
Little is known of Xavier's life before he became an Assassin. At some point, he was charged with overseeing a mission, but all the Assassins under his command were killed, including Joseph.[1] In 2015, Gavin Banks put Xavier in charge of leading technician Kody and field agent Galina Voronina, with the trio becoming a small mobile Assassin cell.[2]
Joseph's return
In September 2015, it was revealed that Joseph was alive and had given away the location of a Piece of Eden to the Templars, though a secret message from him claimed that it was actually a ruse intended to draw out a high-ranking Templar. Xavier's cell remained divided over whether or not to trust their compatriot, with Galina believing they should simply kill him, rather than risk the leaking of Assassin secrets. Xavier, reluctant to see Joseph as a traitor, decided they needed to verify his claims before taking further actions.[2]
With Kody's help, they located Charlotte de la Cruz, who was descended from an Assassin active during the Salem witch trials. Traveling to San Diego to recruit her, Xavier and Galina's meeting with Charlotte was interrupted by the arrival of Templar agents. A fight broke out between the two factions, with the Assassins eventually emerging victorious.[2]
Taking the unconscious Charlotte to the Assassins' hideout located near the Salton Sea, Xavier introduced her to Kody and then brought her up to speed regarding the cell's mission. They subsequently put their new recruit into an Animus, but found that she had difficulty staying synchronized with her ruthless ancestor.[2] Charlotte's continued struggles caused tensions between Xavier and Galina to rise, with the former hanging onto his beliefs that Joseph was on their side, while the latter grew ever more convinced that Xavier was being naive.[3]
Xavier was later informed by Kody that the Templar coming for Joseph was Didier Hawking, a "memory-hacking genius". Galina, believing they had already wasted enough time and needed to go back to San Diego, forcefully disconnected Charlotte, leading to another argument. Xavier eventually produced a gun and threatened Galina, telling her that he would shoot her if she attempted to stop Charlotte from going back into the Animus.[4]
