Biography
A musical prodigy, Xavier Stone's time in Egypt exposed him to African and Middle Eastern techniques which he weaves into his sound. In a recent interview he claimed to rock so hard "there's nothing left of a guitar when I'm done with it." - Guitar Hero in-game bio
Xavier Stone has always rocked. Identified as a musical prodigy with a genius IQ at age 5, he wrote and starred in his first full-length rock opera at 8. By 14 he had formed the internationally acclaimed Seeing Eye Frog and a world tour was right around the corner. Early exposure to the complex rhythms of Africa and the Orient influenced his style. Equally energized by hip hop, classical, jazz and rock, he can switch styles on a dime, and looks cool doing it. Xavier says he likes to rock so hard there's "nothing left of a guitar when I'm done with it." A recent reader's poll by Quantum Sound Magazine voted Xavier Stone "Most Likely to Rock". - Guitar Hero manual bio
Raised in suburban Connecticut, Xavier Stone broke from his pampered upbringing after realizing he preferred rock clubs to country clubs. Weaving slick '70s style with chunky grooves, Xavier does it right every time. - Guitar Hero II in-game bio
The essence of cool, Xavier wields sound with hypnotic effect. The ladies want him and the dudes want to BE him. Touted as "The Strummer of Love", Xavier strives for peace on Earth and goodwill towards... Rock 'N Roll. - Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock in-game bio.
Appearences
Guitar Hero
He has green and yellow dreadlocks, chin and a blue shirt with a green vest above it. He has really dark blue jeans.
Guitar Hero II
With the release of Guitar Hero II, his look has regressed into a 70's era funk-rock persona.
Guitar Hero III
In this game, two of his default outfits look exactly like Jimi Hendrix's. His Orchid outfit looks exactly like Hendrix's 1969 Woodstock outfit whilst his Tangerie outfit looks like Hendrix's outfit from his legendary performance at the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival. Also, players can purchase Hendrix's iconic hand-painted psychedelic Flying-V Guitar.
By Guitar Hero III, his look had regressed again, now being fashioned as a hippie rocker in the style of Jimi Hendrix. His alternate costume "Captain X", however, is a homage to The Beatles's "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band".
