Xavier
Adishatz and welcome to my wikipage! As you might have guessed my name is Xavier. Coming from the town that was once home to one of Napoleon's favourite generals, to the great inquisitor in The Name of the Rose and also to one of the Middle ages' most infamous and blood-thirsty families; I guess it makes sense I should be named after someone who has more blood on his hands than a Veterinarian convention. My friends call me Xabi or Xav, for the purpose of this Encyclopedia I shall be (un)known as Saebhiar.
What am I doing here, I hear you ask? Well, even though I'm originally French, I've been living in Ireland for a decade now and have spent more and more time on the English version of Wikipedia.
Passions include Sci-Fi, Motorcycling and, last but not least, Rugby union. Now, I try to stay away from Sci-fi pages here as I feel people are (overly) passionate about those, and editing wars are not good for my blood pressure. The Rugby crowd, on the other hand, are a very friendly and nice bunch of lads to work with - which is why I spend most of my time working on the pages relating to the Game played in Heaven.
In fact, they do such a good work that I've created an award just for them.
