Height & Weight
The average height of a XIA is 14 cm. Roughly this means that if an adult human was proportioned at the size of a XIA, they would be about 1/12 of their normal human size. For weight, a XIA is a very sophisticated and densely packed piece of technology, thus we base the weight to be about 1/8 that of a normal human weight.
When deciding height/weight remember that a XIA should remain about porotional to the 5.5 inches (14 cm) average mark being around 17 pounds (7.7 kg).

Movement
In game the XIA's are seen to move around a lot. They fly in circles, spirals, and otherwise seem unable to sit still. This has a cause, the Spacial Variance Reactor that powers them works best when in motion. The reactor draws power from subspace in a specific way that can deplete the kinds of particles it draws energy from if it is sitting still too long. Since the XIA's are so small they don't have as large of a battery to store energy in as larger technology would. Thus the XIA's feel better and more energized the more they move around.
Body and Revisions
After some consideration, I decided to make significant revisions. For one, I am trying to transition the Xia's to be more like a race of cybernetic organisms, artificial but taking on a life on their own. Additionally, I opted to use the Mark 2 Nanobiotic Android Body as a base rather than having them electronic. This way they there is feature parity and the bodies can be "grown" the same way, just different sizes and designs.
