DESCRIPTION: David Xanatos owns New York, if not the world. Powerful, arrogant, and dangerously intelligent, he is a worthy opponent for our heroes. He runs Xanatos Enterprises, a multinational conglomerate with subsidiaries including Genutech Systems ("Metamorphosis"), and Pack Media Studios ("The Thrill of the Hunt"). He lives in Castle Wyvern which he moved to the top of The Eyrie Building, the tallest skyscraper in Manhattan. An excellent hand to hand combatant, master of several different kinds f martial arts, he is also very fond of his gargoyle battle armour ("The Edge"). He is married to Fox ("Eye of the Beholder", "Vows"), and is recently a father.HISTORY: The businessman who is responsible for breaking the spell that the gargoyles were under for a thousand years. A tremendous case of megalomania pervaded his actions. He used to quest for power at any cost. Xanatos found his true love and only weakness in Fox, whom he married. The honeymoon was spent in the tenth century, where Xanatos was revealed to be a member of the Illuminati Society (though apparently only a low-ranking member). He mailed a tenth century coin to himself in 1975, and from that, he built his fortune. However, that came at the cost of alienating his father who was offended by David's machiavellian ruthlessness. Xanatos also seems to fear death. His genetics research and other intellectual pursuits tended to focus on prolonging his life. Even when he was a clear enemy to the clan, David was a unique villain. He never bore a grudge against his enemies and often saw the bright side of any failure he experienced. However, he was still capable of despicable acts as when he arranged to have various homeless people and Derek Maza's genetic structures altered against their will in order to have a gargoyle like goon squad at his disposal. The Xanatoses recently had a child named Alexander, a fact of interest not only to the social columns, but the Lord of Avalon as well. At the persuasion of Titania, Oberon attempted to abduct the child to Avalon. The Xanatoses resisted the attack with the help of Goliath and his clan. For their part in protecting his child, David considered himself owing a massive debt to the Manhattan clan. The incident also allowed him to reconcile with his father who was impressed by David's fierce effort to protect his son. His efforts at repayment were twofold. The first was the removal of the conflicting personalities in Coldstone into separate bodies. The second was to allow the clan access to the castle after the clock tower was destroyed by the Hunters as a sign that their differences have been settled. How this change of heart will affect his future plans is unknown.
