Origin and identity is unknown. Various rumors exist as to who or what Xan is. The most popular rumor being that he is the man who heads up Liandri Corporation and has poured his vast wealth into building the most advanced battle suit ever, solely for maintaining champion status in the Tournament.

Former Tournament champion Xan Kriegor is an almost mythical figure. His return from several years of isolation has been greeted with great trepidation by other Tournament competitors.

Xan Kriegor was long regarded as invincible, until Malcolm defeated him in the fourth officially recognized Tournament finals. After a long hiatus, he has returned to lead the Liandri team, The Corrupt, back to the championship. Xan is sitting out the early rounds, which he perceives as beneath his attention.

Xan is a Cybernetic being who has won multiple Liandri Tournaments. Xan led the LBX-7683 Robot Uprising in which several robots turned against the humans on the asteroid, prompting Liandri to send in a tactical squad to quell the rebellion. Xan was captured and resisted several memory wipes but was eventually reprogrammed.

Afterwards, Liandri began using Xan as the leader of The Corrupt, their team in the Tournament they sponsored. Xan won at least two Tournaments during this time. Many people believed at this time that Xan was in fact power armor worn by Jerl Liandri, the founder of the Liandri Corporation, presumably due to the lack of general knowledge of the LBX-7683 incident.

Xan was beaten by Malcolm. Liandri recalled Xan and apparently re-entered him as Xan Mark II, which apparently had little success. Xan was again recalled.

Xan's next appearance, as Xan Mark 3, came nearly a decade later. He was one of the possible opponents in the final round of the UT2004 ladder.

Epic indicated early on that Xan and his team would return in UT3, but as of yet he nor any other robots have been seen.
