History:Alexavier grew up in the US and had a relatively average upbringing. His mother was an accountant and his father a bus driver. He was pretty athletic and played multiple sports, though he much preferred martial arts. He would occasionally go on hunting trips with his grandfather. After graduating high school he took a gap year traveling to different countries known for the martial arts he was most interested in. He had just returned to the US for a few weeks and was headed home when he was picked up by a military convoy and brought to the bunker.
After the bunker opened he was among the first to leave searching for food. He eventually began to feel unwell and headed back to the bunker where he saw people dying. He began to feel sicker over the next few days, then when he began to feel better he went out again but noticed every time he touched a plant it withered to dust and he felt more energized.

Martial arts: Alex has trained in a variety of martial arts though he concentrated on those that used weapons as well as Muay Thai and Krav Maga.

Power:Essence Refining and Assimilation
Abilities:He is capable of refining the strength/abilities of a living/recently deceased organic being into an energy he calls essence. If used on something alive it will die, as absorbing its essence causes it to turn to dust, though he is only able to do it to something that can't resist, physically or mentally. He can then use the essence to heal himself or others. Assimilation allows him to also use the essence to strengthen his physical attributes, though the increase is both dependent on the strength of the essence source as well as his skill in using the ability. If used on something/one with abilities it has a chance to either temporarily(early on) or permanently(later on).
Weakness:Doesn't give much benefit early on as he will be unable to really control it. Can generally only be used on plants and recently deceased animals. Refining non-plant essence takes time and cannot be done during combat or any other highly time sensitive situation. He has a limit of how much essence he can absorb but cannot voluntarily stop once the process begins meaning if he starts to absorb something with more essence than he can contain he will die unless he his forcibly interrupted which also causes backlash.
