Not much is known about Wilhelm. He is the founder and CEO of the largest interplanetary conglomerate, ]. He also served as the Executive Committee Director of the ], up to a decade ago. To be the founder of Vector and the Executive Committee, Director Wilhelm must be very old, much older than any normal human could possibly live. It is quite possible that he is undergoing life extension, much like Emperor Cain in '']'' (see ]). Wilhelm is one of the most suspicious characters in the ''Xenosaga'' series; it seems he is manipulating every other conglomerate and individual for his own personal gain.

Wilhelm uses an ] called the ] when he makes a move. He is often seen staring into it, sometimes obsessively. It is quite possible that Wilhelm is using the Compass of Order as a vision into the future. With such knowledge, Wilhelm could easily manipulate circumstances in the present to aid him in the future.

Wilhelm's assistants are the ], powerful and mysterious agents. The extent and nature of the Testaments' power is unknown, but they seem to be Wilhelm's closest personal advisors and subordinates. By the end of the second game we have seen four Testaments, each dressed in different-colored robes: black, red, blue, and white.

At the end of ''Xenosaga Epiosde II'', there is a brief scene involving ] and Wilhelm. Chaos explains that he will not hold back, and Wilhelm seems delighted that chaos is finally "entering the stage." Wilhelm then addresses chaos as "Yeshua," which may hint to a past partnership or rivalry between the two men.

Wilhelm's link to the collective mythos upon which ''Xenosaga'' is based may lie in the titles of the first ''Xenosaga'' games, ''Der Wille zur Macht'' and ''Jenseits von Gut und Böse''. These titles are shared with publications by '']'', whose middle name is shared by Wilhelm himself. This link helps to attribute Wilhelm to his role as a enigmatic manipulator of the events which unfold in ''Xenosaga''.
