Biography[edit]

At some point, Xiana had the muscles in her arms spliced with chimpanzee genes to increase her strength.[1] Her bones were also made more durable.[2]

When Mia van der Venne had ordered the evacuation of the New Pacific Arcology, Xiana would object to her decision, claiming that they couldn't abandon Titan, when they had just finished making a borehole into the moon's second ocean for an crewed expidition into it a day before. Though she was skeptical when David Miguel Korosec told her and the other leaders on the Arcology that it wasn't a false alarm, she was eventually convinced when Mia told them that the AIs that gave the order to evacuate did so using a hammer-forged extrapolation of human morality tested under trillions of simulatiions to be sure their moral decisions agreed with human values.[1] Afterwards, Mia instructed Xiana to call E. F. Babatunde and bring the Duiker up from the borehole to the submarine pen. When suddenly everyone (save for Ismail Barat) received an alert in their Sensoriums that the Traveler was leaving Io.[2]

When several dropships led by Morgan-2 under the orders of Rasputin touched down on the Arcology, Xiana, Ismail, and Maury attempted to keep Mia from leaving, as Xiana secretly wanted to impress Mia. The Systems and Facilities Administrator simply gave the three of them a hug and reassured them before giving them their orders, with Mia telling Xiana to help Ismail switch everything in the Arcology to local management after checking on the Duiker.[3]

Later, Xiana reported that the Arcology's tidal anchors were decoupled to make the substructure as loose as possible before the quake, when a gravitational anomaly pulling on Titan let go. She begged Maury to get back, but he instead dived deeper to let the Swarmers out of their pens.[4]
