Bunnies: Not Where it's At
 
#4
The thing that comes to mind about the Phantom one is that Xander is going to be rather intrested in moving out rather soon, making a lab for enchanted
thingies and all. A heavy combat mages would be able to go blow things up in the desert and be fine.... but as an enchanter of objects he is going to need
somewhere stable and relatively undisturbed, in order to make with the stable enchantments stick to things. So first thing he is going to try to set up a lab
somewhere Also, enchanting on the hellmouth with do weird things until he learns to compinsate for the Hellmouthy energies.

Ignoring the obvious Xander makes their armory into +1 weapons, and minor AC boosting stuff... bracers or leg guards that can be worn under clothing. A little
body hardening or deflection capabilities goes a long way towards survival. Maybe things that help you resist fire or let you see farther, better at night or
blend into the night better.. He has been exposed to table top RPGs and comic books so making things like that are in character, also simple enough in theory
and function that he can practice without doing something too dangerous or screwing up something complicated.

Later he'll aim for things that make their non combat jobs easier. For instance a headband that functions like an extended memory cartridge for those
endless research sessions. Doesn't really make you smarter so much as let more stew in your short term memory so you can make connections your tired mind
normally wouldn't pick up on at that point. A mental note band if you will.

If he does spend as much time working with enchantments as I think he would, eventually someone will notice... and this can lead to commissioned work or kidnap
and force him to make X artifact work or just make X magic item. He'll be able to expand his knowledge if they grant random artifact/magic item during a
mission. Anya will be in love with the idea of having an anechanter on staff at the magic box. Then again with Xander's ability to attract inhuman women
I'm sure that he'll end up with random females enitities after him that wouldn't normally appear in the series.

Later on, I get the weird vision of Xander making something that causes a arrow to appear about the First Evil... one that literally hovers above its head,
when in range, and literally points out that this is the First Evil. Same vein as the wierdness of Drusilla randomly singing prophesy at people in the middle
of combat for a while... Which will make anyone reporting on the two groups interactions at that point confused.

Oh and Xander probably won't be interested in romance too much for at least a few months so. As Willow will be his apprentice I think that he'll avoid
a romantic relationship there... too much Christine vibe for Xanders to not have issues with the idea of that relationship.
