Notes

Personality
- Outwardly acts grumpy and cynical to strangers.
- Doesn't like hiding the truth and hates it if people hide it from him.
- Very stubborn and kind of pushy.
- Knows how to dig for information and doesn't give up when looking for things. Can get very creative with how he looks, too.
- Cynical and tends to judge literally everyone around him due to his own trust issues.
- Oh yea he has trust issues, how is he a prospit dreamer.
- Despite his trust issues of strangers and tendency to judge others, he finds it easier to trust his friends- although it's kind of hard to put faith into what they say sometimes.
- Nerd and doesn't like to talk about some of his interests to cope with himself (mostly drinking, collecting his favorite comics and figurines, writing self insert fanfics, and his own comic ideas)
- Doesn't really like his job anymore but doesn't want to quit because he's a stubborn idiot.
- Holds himself up to really high standards, just like his mentor used to(kinda), and really hates himself because it feels like he isn't making an impact. It's one of the reasons why he hates his job.
- Self worth issues galore.
- Really depends on his few friends left for support and although he acts like he's independent, he wouldnt have gotten that far in life without the help of people (owlmom, his mentor, etc) and finds it scary to actually depend on himself since who the fuck would want to depend on him, which is why he panicked and sold his news company to another bigger one since he can't handle the responsibility of handling it on his own.
- Has a strong sense of justice and a big moral code he follows, another reason why he holds himself to high standards.
- Despite being a dickhead to everyone around him he doesn't actually want to see them hurt and just finds it hard to properly express himself and how he feels, both out of fear of being vulnerable and since he's like that.
- Slightly more relaxed around friends and probably more willing to talk about his interests if they ask.
- Works at home more often then not.
- Already thinks himself as nothing don't worry.

Backstory
- Had a pretty normal childhood. Owlmom tried her best to raise her young son and would happily give him what he wanted.
- One of the big reasons why he wanted to be a investigative journalist is because he thought he could help out a lot more since he really liked writing and could help out more if he was on The Team, but was too shy to approach others.
- Eventually met a Gold Blood that held the same dreams as him and the two got along great. He sees them as a big mentor in his life and was also kinda flushed for him.
- The two founded their own news website which grew in popularity slowly, with the goldblood mentor also hosting a podcast to regularly discuss and take in ideas for new cases.
- Xemriz slowly turns more and more cynical as the time goes on, though the mentor always tries to reassure him. Xemriz is very dependent on them.
- Mentor, who was already in hotwater already and barely managed to avoid being found, began to investigate a bigtime crime case involving a lot of important high bloods. Xemriz is cynical of their efforts and thinks its useless, since both already saw and found countless coverups, but mentor goes okay.
- And it does, for awhile- though the mentor is eventually murdered after being lured into a trap.
- Xemriz sorta spirals after that and although he was holding himself to high standards beforehand, he begins to do so even more. He sells the site and although he's still part of the staff he's more of a minor worker, though still well off. He still maintains podcast and boss' own website. Lol dummy.
