@shylarah Alexander's dad and Alys would probably been familiar, but probably not friends though they probably worked together in the past. Alex would like generally like people to call him Alex, but would response to Alexander. He would say "Mr. Welsh" would be his father.
My internet is out, might be awhile, you can go ahead without me, Axel would just be fixing the ship, Asura would be missing, an Fenrir is doing something somewhere else.
Though, what would be the relation between Alexander's parents and Rutherford/Sven. They would know each other, but I think that would important in how Sven and Alexander would see each other.
Name: Alexander Walsh Age:21 Sex:Male Nationality: American/Irish (Born in the US)
Appearance: Alexander is a lean, tall figure. His Irish heritage is obvious in his red hair and freckled face. His arms are covered in scars caused by thorns and claws. He is fairly pale, this is not because he spends all-day in-doors, but is inside caused by the fact that his skin would rather burn than tan. However, what makes Alexander stand out the most is his wardrobe. He wears a white silk shirt under a large green robe made out of planet fibers that goes down to his knees. His pants are less amusing, except that they are about ten years out of style.
Outward Personality: He is able to seem misanthropic, having a certain disdain for humanity and has been quoted saying, "Most humans are chaotic creatures of war and destruction that have a tendency to simply make things worst as they act without wisdom or morals."
While he has a great love of nature, he is not opposed to eating meat or other animal products, but he can often be seen saying native american prayers before eating meat or after killing an animal or plant. He also seems to have an affinity for things that other would consider worthless, such as eagle feathers, sea shells, and the like.
It is no secret that he has a particular interest in studying Native American and Druidic site, however he also has an interest in other prechristian religions such Nordic myth and Shintoism, and in particular, there forms of nature reverence.
Inner Personality: In truth, Alexander cares about other humans more than he lets on. He cares for his fellow man about as much anyone else would, but tries to hide it since he believes it is rooted in his greatest fear, that he is not the paragon of nature he seeks to become and that ultimately he is unworthy. While generally calm-headed, this fear can cloud his judgment and can cause him to make rash decisions which while seem beneficial at the moment, may have dire consequences in the future.
Backstory: Alexander is his father's son. His father was pagan, and so Alex is pagan. His father was a member of the Rutherford Organization, and so Alex is a member of the Rutherford Organization. His history starts not at his birth, but with his father.
His father was a man known as Sean Walsh. He was a fairly normal Irishman other than his interest in archaeology, which was quite skilled at, leading him to the Rutherford Organization and eventually his conversion to a druidic form of spiritualism and paganism. He met with an American women who was an expert on Native American history and folklore, and the two quickly feel and love and had a child, Alex.
Alex grew up strongly religious, often spending time with family friends while his parents worked. His mother died when he was seventeen due to disease, and his father went MIA a few years later.
He joined the Rutherford Organization as soon as he was able in order to hopefully find his father, revive his religion, and prove himself worthy.
Other: He is obviously well versed in Native American and Paganistic culture and mythology. However, less apparent, he has learned how to survive in the wilderness using only the tools nature proves.
