Physical Appearance

Origin
Alex was born and raised in Kavaccet. At the age of 16 both of his parents were killed in a battle Lady Darya sent them into. With his brother Borris, he moved in with Chink and his sister Avery who also lost their parents in the same battle. At the age of 18, Alex went to claim his promise from The Wisdom and was gifted with quality military training which he took advantage of for three years until he moved away from Kavaccet. He is now living in Brittner village.
Mentality
Alex has a hero complex. Because he was a coward who failed to act on a loved one's behalf in the past, he now goes out of his way to 'save' those he thinks need it. This is especially true of Kavaccetian women who have been given in promise to abusive or unloving men. Part of him despises every promise of The Wisdom when the gift is a Bloom.
Residence
Alex lives in Brittner, though nothing is known of his home at this time.
Possessions
Other than a horse, a sword, and the clothes on his back, Alex's possessions are unknown.
Relationship with Others
Unless you are on the receiving end of a Promise of a Bloom from The Wisdom, Alex seems like a pretty good guy. But he is not afraid to fight against what he considers injustice.
Borris
Borris is Alex's biological brother. They have a pretty good relationship.
Chink
Chink is a childhood friend of Alex. They have a pretty good relationship.
Demil
Demil was added to Alex's group of friends about ten years ago when he, Borris, and Chink decided to leave Kavaccet city. They met Demil in Brittner and settled down there. They have a pretty good relationship.
Nivia
Alex met Nivia about ten years ago through currently un-revealed circumstances, but she understands him and has become a motherly figure in his life.
Fiora Sae Grue
Alex thought that Fiora was yet another girl that needed saving from an ill-given promise. He was surprised when she fought him and even more surprised when she turned on him in vengeance. His current opinion of her is wary, though he respects her for the way she fights for the one she loves.
Civyl Tor Dyias
Alex really thought Civyl was the bad guy. The bruising on Fiora's neck and his guilty pallor had solidified that opinion. When Civyl hesitated to finish him off with Alex's dropped sword, he took advantage of the moment to trip him into a fire, supposedly killing him. Civyl stormed in during Fiora's vengeance, practically saving his life and showing Alex that he wasn't as much a villain as he had thought.
