Appearance DetailsTall, thin, and lean, at six-foot-one, Alex is a guy who’s noticed when walking in crowds, even if he doesn’t want to be. He dresses as though he were pulled from the 1990s, always with the black grunge aesthetic, and long dark shaggy unkempt hair which sometimes obscured half of his face. His skin is fairly pale and he has a single tattoo on his left arm, the Norse symbol “Vegvísir”, which he did to himself with a sewing needle and india ink on a whim (Something his father still hasn’t forgiven him for doing). Occasionally he has a cigarette or toothpick dangling from his lips, a terrible habit born out of anxiety, and something he keeps on the down low.
Personality TraitsDespite how he acts sometimes, Alex is highly intelligent, yet introverted for the most part, and the socially awkward side of him isn’t too far behind. But over time, and under the right conditions, he can be less rigid and a little more talkative to those he trusts. He tends to feel more at home surrounded by his many artistic endeavors, or behind a camera, capturing other people or places. He’s a neat freak, and has bouts of OCD, especially when it comes to his own stuff. “Everything has it’s place.” He’ll often comment under his breath.
What you will find however, is the more you get to know him, the more you realize that he is a nice guy with a kind heart. It’s simply peeling past all the layers of insecurity that need to be dealt with first.
BiographyAlex was usually one not to push, but rather let the cards fall where they may. Growing up as an only child in a middle class family, he had a fairly good upbringing. Both parents were pretty typical, both loved one another, but argued over the dumbest of shit almost on a daily. Overall, childhood was easy in suburban Pennsylvania.
Easy, until an accident took his mother’s life, and left a void so large in the twelve year old’s heart and soul, that he found himself reaching for a purpose. He was like any kid before, just out playing, being social, being active. But after the tragedy, he wanted nothing to do with anyone, or anything. As time passed, his father had remarried, and it was his step-mother who introduced the boy to art as a way to express himself in any way he chose. It was an outlet that allow him to pour all of the pent up anger, fear and sorrow into each drawing, painting, or photo. He’d found his purpose once again. To create. And art was his only friend.
During the summer between his Sophomore and Junior years, his family moved to Columbus, Ohio, where his father landed a new job. The move was tough, considering Alex had to leave all his friends, his school, and his hangouts, and “fitting in” was not something he was ready for. Friends were different, bad habits were formed, and trying to "fit in" was the toughest journey, and perhaps other times, it was just where he needed to be. But, a school year had gone by without too much incident, and after an interesting summer, it was now his Senior year...
