Gender:
Age: 38
Nationality: British
Current location in the world: London, MI6 Underground 'Astral' Bunker
Appearance:
Alex is rarely ever spotted when not wearing his characteristic white suit- or riot gear. Alex always has a smug βIβm better than youβ smile of his face, showing off his pearly white teeth. He has an immaculate blond head of hair, accentuating his pale blue eyes. His eye have a quality that are almost inviting, yet at the same time cruelly cynical if you look too deep. He typically has his hands tucked into his pockets, while his eyes flit around as though bored. His skin is white and lightly tanned, it is as perfect as the rest of his appearance, without a blemish or mark to speak of. His muscles are well-toned, all covered nicely by his white suit.
Sometimes, if one makes him angry, theyβll catch him clenching and unclenching his fists rapidly. He never seems to sweat, even when under great strain, but the effort will certainly shine through on his face. When upset or sad, his smile will turn into only the slightest frown, as though disappointed.
Location and notes on star mark:
Alexβs star is in the center of his palm, it is large and white, four pointed, and is large enough to almost take up the entirety of his palm. When he uses his power his star starts to glow.
Star Power:
Memory Transferral- Alexβs unique ability is that of being able to obtain and give out memories. By placing his hand on the head of someone else, he can begin picking through their memories, and he can copy ones he chooses into his head. If it is a mere snippet of information, like a name or a face, this can be done instantly. For more expansive knowledge, such as how to drive a car or how to fight at a basic level can take an hour. Copying someoneβs mastery of a skill into his own head would take twenty four hours of continuous contact.
Additionally, this power allows Alex to copy his own memories, or memories heβs taken, into the heads of others. He can impart his knowledge of martial arts or firearms training onto anyone, provided he maintains contact with their head.

Personality:
Alex is a leader. He has a magnetic personality that somehow draws people in, with lots of charisma and a charming smile to top it all off. Heβs all smiles, most of the time, and fundamentally understands how people work. Heβs very good at social dynamics and knows how to play off them to his disadvantage. Very rarely does he find someone who dislikes him, but thatβs usually only people who are as smart or smarter than he is- who are few and far between. Heβs very good at persuasion and diplomacy, and when the situation calls for it, intimidation. In a sense he is very minimalist and likes exerting the smallest amount of effort to get something done, but done right all the same. Equally this doesnβt mean that he doesnβt have a sense of style. Often times heβs made full grown bikers back off with a single well placed quip.
Heβs a wily man, and has been called a βweasley bastardβ more than once by his enemies. He is secretive when he feels it will help him gain an advantage, and is extremely good at being a secret agent. He can talk his way out of- or into- virtually any situation he likes.
Biography:
Born in London to two altogether average parents, he wasnβt exactly your average child. He had his star power as soon as he was born- and used it to great effect. He was already a fantastic speak with incredible vocabulary by the time he was only one- Heβd accidentally taken a massive knowledge of the english language from his mother and father. He began being jokingly referred to as the βprodigal sonβ. This began shaping up to be more true than false. They enrolled him into kindergarten at age
two. He quickly proved far too intelligent for it, and has skipped into the fourth grade by the time he was five. He skipped several grades over his educational career, finishing high school at thirteen. Unbeknownst to virtually everyone, this wasnβt because of an inherent intelligence- it was due to his Star. His power let him attian all the knowledge heβd need to pass any sort of test thrown at him. After graduating, most colleges refused to accept a boy who was only thirteen, and in these years waiting to become of age for college, he began thinking about what sort of career heβd enjoy. At number one on his list was a career in the British Intelligence Agency, MI6. He did a respectable amount of research and attempted to train himself via internet videos, learning the ways of firearms and martial arts to make for an easier acceptance- When that failed his went to local martial artists and literally paid them to allow him to lay his hand on their heads for many, many hours at a time. By the time he was sixteen he was a veritable swiss army knife of knowledge and had enough fighting skill to put a Navy SEAL on his ass.
At eighteen, he decided that college was βbelowβ him, and he immediately joined MI6. He passed all the tests with flying colors and quickly rose in the ranks. He was personally responsible for MI6βs recognition of Stars and formulated the idea for the Ursa program. After the program was declared a success, he volunteered to lead MI6βs version, Project Astral. he spearheaded the project with his new codename, Atlas, and has been leading it ever since.
