Xuahiel is a close childhood friend of Zetskah Longshadow. Although he is several months older than Zetskah, he is smaller and more docile. He and Zetskah form a coalition. Both he and Zetskah are responsible for the growth and health of the Longshadow Harem. There have been rumors of romance between them.

His smaller size does not stop him from bucking up to the larger, more dominant male. Spars between adult males are common and typically end up with one of them dead or seriously injured, but Zetskah seldom takes the fights seriously and often gets his ass kicked for lack of desire to fight his childhood friend.
