| - One of the first species to be created after the Matoran, the Xevthians would eventually populate a desolate and volcanic island in the southern-most reaches of the the Matoran Universe. Here, the Xevthians struggled to survive for several years alongside another species, the Zarak, their island constantly being devided by various warlords and factions. Eventually, however, a beggar named Alxor slowly rose up through the ranks of the Xevthian people, soon becoming the High-King, the island's undisputed leader and ruler. The majority of the island's factions and war leaders were disposed of soon after. Under Alxor's command, the Xevthian civilization began to flourish, and the Zarak were employed as servants to the Xevthians. This eventually led Alxor to preposing that the Xevthian military work to conquer the rest of the world, seeing the Matoran Universe as wild and in need of leadership, which met with approval. Amassing an army of Xevthians and Zarak, Alxor announced the rise of the new "Xevthian Empire", and began an invasion of the lands north of the Xevthians' home. Over the next several weeks, the Xevthians and their Zarak allies swiftly conquered the Southern Islands, and soon began invading lands to the north, starting with the Zeverek homeland of Mevock, and Archosa, home of the Saursapiens and Lepidians. Sometime later, Alxor led an invasion of the island of Versuva, where he ordered the enslavement of the Mersion race. In the next several months, the Xevthians and Zarak would invade and/or capture almost all of the lands of the north, meeting and overwhelming resitance from local militaries, the Hand of Artakha, as well as the few Toa active at the time. Eventually, only a few of the northern-most islands were left free of the Empire's hold, which were soon targeted as well. Before, these lands could be obtained, however, Alxor was fought, defeated and imprisoned by the combined efforts of the Hand of Artakha and the Mersion scientist Mersery. Without their leader, the Xevthian Empire was ill-equipped to maintain its grasp on the territories it held, and was soon beaten back to the Xevthian homeland. Here, the Xevthains found more conflict when their Zarak servants decided to rebel and leave the island. Not long after, the Xevthians' island was struck by a devistating volcanic eruption, which destroyed the Xevthian civilization, and pushed their species to the brink of extinction.
