Age: 20
Birthday: 20, Summer, 494
Birthplace: Likely Sylira
Appearance: Alexander is tall and slender, standing six feet tall and weighing around 170 lbs. His looks are average but what one would likely notice right off the bat is his solid white hair. Nothing was done to him to make it this way, Alexander's hair has been white since birth.
Character ConceptThe character concept behind Alexander was a young man who grew up knowing a harder life than the average citizen within Sylira. He's had to fight just to survive and is hard working. I haven't overly detailed many things because I want to see how everything plays out in the game.
Character HistoryAlexander knows nothing of his heritage as he grew up in The Welcoming Home orphanage in Sylira. Even his name is of his own choosing. As a child life was even harder for him because of his naturally white hair. The other children seemed to think this was an invitation to pick on and bully the young boy. This is largely where Alexander learned to fight, fending off other children and bullies, usually more than one at a time. He learned to fight with fists, feet, rocks, and whatever else was at hand. As he got older this pattern continued for a time, then slowly tapered off.
Because he was never adopted as a child Alexander eventually grew large and strong enough for the other children to leave him alone, but the fighting didn't end there. No longer having to defend himself the young man would often defend other children who were being bullied which still resulted in fights. For this reason much of his childhood at The Welcoming Home was spent fighting with other children. While it did earn him a slight reputation as a troublemaker it was no secret that he defended other children.
Never adopted as a child Alexander eventually left The Welcoming Home when he came of age. From that point he made no delays in heading to the employment office to find himself a job. It wasn't just to find paying work, even as a young man he felt it his duty to be a contributing member of society. Because of his already physical life Alexander had a solid build and was given a job in the Iron Works as a novice. From there he began to learn the profession of being a blacksmith.
The job was hard and for the first month Alexander went home exhausted and didn't little more than eat, sleep, bathe, and work. Never the less he felt good and made an honest living. Over the years he began to buy his own smithing tools and continued to work hammering out a wide variety of metal items on a daily basis. As of 2,Winter, 514 the only real smithing tool Alexander still hasn't been able to afford is his own anvil, but things are looking up as he was recently promoted to apprentice smith.
