Alexander possesses fairly long, white and grey hair. Most of the time Alexander is seen wearing a plain high neck grey vest tied together at the center. Above this he wears a forest green scarf which hangs from his back as well as a green head band which crosses over his forehead. At either end of the headband are two blue ball ends which hang at the bottom. Both of his forearms are bandaged down from elbow to hand. He wears black pants and black boots. Perhaps his most noticeable trait is his eyes. From childhood Alexander’s accident with his father left his left eye scarred and discolored. While it works perfectly fine its appearance unhinges some of those around him. His right eye had become quite discolored from his contact with the Pure World since his young age leaving a pearly pale iris behind.

P E R S O N A L I T Y

During his childhood Alexander was an outgoing kid. When comfortable with his environment Alexander was a very curious child exploring his surroundings and taking in all around him. His parents even compared his love for exploring and learning to that of a sponge. He had a particular love for nature, especially water, which carried through to his later years. As a boy he was very sensitive as well showing attachment to even the smallest forms of life.

After the tragedy of his childhood Alexander’s personality was affected greatly by the loss of his father and the trauma suffered to his eye. Resulting from this was an incredible shift from the regular outgoing kid to a much more timid man. His closest friends believe that this shift was because of the traumatic loss of a father figure growing up. He had no father to show him how to live his life or meet women. As such his timid nature truly shows around those he does not know well leaving him very uncomfortable – especially around unknown women. Despite the trauma he suffered from the tragedy with his father Alexander remained a sensitive man as he grew up. He is quick to care for someone close to him and will do anything in his power to protect them and to ensure their own happiness – even at the cost of his own. Alexander also remained curious in nature becoming even a skeptic. He commonly questions the natural order and will even question the actions of his superiors. Not because he is a troublemaker but because he simply seeks the best possible option for the people he cares about.

When in battle Alexander is usually quite silent. His mind may or may not be composed and calm, however. He simply wishes to keep his thoughts to himself and is quiet bothered when an opponent can deduce or read his thoughts. He will carry out his orders as efficiently as possible.

Ninja Rank

Unofficial Sage

Specialty

.................................................. ..Suiton Mastery

From my early years I had come to have a great natural affinity for water. This was further displayed when Edward had taken me under his wing to learn Water Release. The training and natural affinity for water had brought me to come to great mastery over the element allowing me to perform water release techniques with a single hand seal.

Doton Mastery

Like water I had also an affinity with earth which I had come to master under Nathan during my training in Alcohol Release. As such I am able to use Doton techniques with much faster hand seals than a normal ninja.

Alcohol Release

Under my training with Nathan I also came to understand my own unique Kekkei Tota. Through a combination of my fire, water, and earth chakras I became capable of unleashing a new Alcohol based chakra known as Shuton. Through this I can intoxicate my foes and overwhelm them with a flammable liquid. I can also assist myself and my allies in combat with this powerful advanced elemental nature.

Taijutsu & Graceful Fist

Under rigorous training I became a taijutsu specialist with greater speed and strength than an average ninja. As a specialist of Graceful Fist my movements are also naturally more fluid than other strong fist users. My hands have become as hard as rock due to training and my stamina is much higher. I also have intimate knowledge of the human body in terms of key muscles and pressure points.

Batoids Summoning

Under my training with Scaze I was fortunate enough to sign the great Batoidea scroll allowing me a contract with the Rays of the Lake of Anqituity. Hailing from the Lake of Antiquity Rays vary in size ranging from a small plate to the size of Gamabunta and other large summonings. Their bodies possess certain natural abilities such as barbed stingers which contain a powerful protein based toxin as well as bodies capable of naturally producing electrical discharges. While Rays are naturally aquatic animals and can swim with great agility, beauty, and speed some take their abilities even further and through the use of their chakra can 'swim' in the air for a limited amount of time making Rays incredibly versatile creatures.

Gaidar

Gaidar is a small sized Genki taking the form of a fox but being able to communicate with Alexander as easily as any other Genki, humanoid or not. Gaidar’s body carries a glowing teal hue along along his tail and ears while the rest of his body is a sharp and well defined grey. He typically will float alongside Alexander and assist him in combat to the best of his abilities. Be it communicating information to Alexander and in a sense acting as a second set of eyes or allowing himself to be manipulated by Alexander’s shamanistic clan techniques. Gaidar is very bubbly and playful frequently making sarcastic and rude remarks to Alexander. Over the duration of their companionship Gaidar developed somewhat of a foul mouth in order to further irk Alexander, as he is quite reserved. Even sometimes in the heat of battle Gaidar will playfully poke at Alexander to keep him alert. However in the most serious and dire of combat circumstances Gaidar will become very quiet and leave himself absolutely focused on the task at hand. Along with his bubbly and playful personality Gaidar, like Alexander, deeply cares for his comrades and especially for Alexander. Their personalities complement each other quite well being near opposites which helps bring out the best in both of them.

Mind and Body

I was born on the outskirts of Konohagakure to two parents of average means. My father, Peter, lived his life as a regular farmer while my mother, Anne, lived her life as a normal housewife caring for me while my father worked the fields. For as long as I could remember the elements around me behaved strangely and this did not go unnoticed by my family. My mother was accepting of these anomalies. She said I was a special child that could become a great ninja someday. My father on the other hand was less accepting. At first he only displayed discomfort when fire and water bended around me in such strange ways that could not be explained. But alas, he did not lash out. As time passed and I grew I began to study the Ninja Arts in Konohagakure to become a ninja. Unlike my father I did not wish to remain a farmer and I wanted to protect my family from those who threatened us. I loved them so dearly. However, it was upon my 7th birthday that my father had finally snapped under the pressure of these strange occurrences that not even the most brilliant ninja of Konoha could explain. On that evening of my birthday my father stayed out in the field later than usual despite the celebration my mother had planned. As the celebrations began he came in armed with a blade. His intentions were not clear at first. He only stood silent as the peaceful sound of rainfall could be heard outside. But his facial expression was dark. My mother’s eyes widened as if she had understood. She rushed to the counter to obtain a knife while I sat at the table wide eyed and innocent. My father was faster, however. With one simple flick of his blade he struck my mother along her bicep and then knocked her to the floor. Ignoring her from there my father approached me, rage in his eyes. He raised his blade and with a fluid stroke attempted to strike me. However, something had pushed me back just far enough for the blade to simply graze my left eye leaving a bloodied eye and a fresh scar as blood poured forth. By now my mother had obtained the knife and picked herself up and attacked my father from behind stabbing him in the back. He was a large man however and this did not subdue him. He spun quickly with his blade and sliced her at her midsection. She fell limp but not before stabbing him once again in the back. This time left a fatal blow. I sat there, blood pouring from my left eye, shocked and unable to comprehend what happened.

A Piece of Hope

After the incident Konoha jounin arrived to secure the situation. I was taken to an orphanage within the day to be given shelter. The strange occurrences continued to follow me, however. By now they had become haunting. I began to fear them and those around me fearing that one day something would happen to someone close to me causing them to do what my father had done. My training as a ninja continued and by the age of 10 I had finally graduated. However, the lack of my father was noticeable. I became timid and quiet. I was sensitive and passionate. I loved those who became close to me and showered them in compassion but was unable to take risks and meet and talk to women. This became more evident as I grew older.

One day however a pair had come to the orphanage. By this time I was 13 years old. In the time I had spent in the orphanage I had never received visitors before. Even the stewardess who managed the orphanage was surprised by my guests. Two figures with a strange symbol on their cloaks had approached the doors and I was called down by the stewardess to speak with them. One was a tall green haired man with a clear burn mark on his face. The other was a greyed woman with a bow strapped to her back. The man spoke introducing himself as Lord Amaimon and Akasha of the Drow Rangers. My eyes narrowed as they began to speak and introduce themselves. I politely shook the one known as Amaimon’s hand sat down with them. After we sat Amaimon immediately addressed the issue at hand regarding the strange occurrences around me. My eyes widened as he spoke of the Pure World – a world parallel to our own where spirits freely cross over to our world and cause these strange occurrences and that he, as head of the House Katsuryoku, would show me to manipulate and harness these spirits. But he would not show me until I had come of age and mastered the ninja arts. After my conversation with the two Amaimon and Akasha left me. Akasha however smiled and promised me that we would meet again and become close allies and friends for life, somehow, I knew she was right.

Too Far Gone

I felt invigorated to continue my training. In a single year I had come to master my own natural affinity for Water Release under Konoha’s sensei Edward. Edward was a well-known water release user and had become a close friend of mine as I grew older. I then traveled to Amegakure to train under Detective L, another experienced sensei. I had come to further my mastery over Water Release by mastering the advanced water nature to manipulate weather and rain – otherwise known as Ameton. During my time in Konoha I had also come quite close to another shinobi. I had met my friend during a spar I had with another ninja. In fact this was my first spar in my career as a ninja. Souji had come to give me advice against my opponent and helped in my defeating him. Since then Souji and I had become very close and unlike many others had become a brother to me. Someone I considered family and family that I had not had since my very early years. However, darker times were soon to come. In Konoha another close friend of mine had been assassinated. While confused at first it soon became clear that the higher ups of Konoha had ordered this assassination. For what reasons I was unsure. But I knew that I could no longer stay. With a heavy heart I departed from my home. I left the orphanage at the age of 15. I felt ready to go out on my own into the world and leave what I felt had become too dark of a regime. I was unsure of my travels. As I left the Land of Fire I did not know of which direction I was traveling in. Nor did I know if where I ended up would accept me. However, I continued traveling in hope that perhaps things would work out. During my travels I met another ninja named Nathan. He trained me himself for quite some time before showing me a unique power known as a Kekkei Tota. It was a unique element that only a handful of individuals could create. It was known as Alcohol Release or Shuton. He showed me to control it and use it against my foes as well as use it for myself and my friends in both battle and leisure. Before I knew it I ended up in the Land of Earth standing before the imposing stone gates of Iwagakure.

New Beginnings

I was immediately greeted once again by Akasha before the gates of Iwagakure along with the Tsuchikage Kerrah and his closest friends Erzo, Scaze, and Mathias. Akasha had already informed them of my arrival which had surprised me as I didn’t even know she was a ninja of Iwagakure. Let alone how she knew of my coming. But nonetheless her informing them had secured me a new home. Kerrah had welcomed me into my new home and I was welcomed with open arms. Within days I was given a place to stay. Erzo and Scaze had begun to train me in new and unique ninja arts that went beyond simple basic training as well as become close friends. Mathias had left the village but I had still communicated with him nonetheless through new and unique means. Not even after a month passed I had received a letter from Amaimon Katsuryoku instructing me to come find him to begin my training to manipulate what he called Genki – the spirits of the Pure World. Excitement filled me as I began to prepare for my new journey to understand the mysterious parallel Pure World.

Leaving the comfort of Iwagakure and telling my friends that I would see them soon brought pain to my heart. I had only just arrived but I was already pulled away from them. I knew though that to defend them and contribute to the greatness that was Iwagakure I would need to become adept at manipulating Genki.

I left with Akasha from Iwa heading toward Mt. Katsuryoku. Our journey was uneventful. Passing through villages and spending time enjoying the sites as we went without a care in the world. For once the rest of the world seemed to go by us instead of being so caught up within it ourselves. Finally we had reached the foot of Mt. Katsuryoku. Looking up toward the peak we found that there was no peak at all. Instead it was obscured and hidden behind the clouds at the very top. Our hike would be long and difficult but Akasha and I both knew it to be very necessary.

When we reached the top after days of hiking we encountered the man that I hadn’t seen since my childhood – Amaimon Katsuryoku. Akasha’s eyes lit with excitement as she rushed to greet to Bearded Sage while I had simply stood in disbelief. I had finally made it. I had waited for this moment since my childhood – to be able to understand the spirits that had caused me such trauma and be able to commune with them. Training began shortly thereafter. I was handed a simple green cloak to which I would be trained in. Amaimon began by instructing us in the ways of the old shamans of the House explaining that the clan was very focused on spiritual energy or more simply put – our willpower. Harnessing this through weeks upon weeks of training I captured control over my emotions allowing me to fully concentrate on the Pure World in order to become aware and communicate with spirits. By the end of it all Amaimon handed me a long black vulture feather symbolizing purification, strength, unity, and patience. In addition to the feather Amaimon also handed me a sheathed knife to carry on my person. The knife itself was not imbued with any remarkable qualities. Along with it came a small block of Redwood that signified my ascension to Elder within House Katsuryoku.

After I received my feather I had completed my communication training. Whilst resting on the mountain I encountered my first Genki. Having risen from the crypts the Genki had taken the form of a fox glowing blue. He sat next to me and surprised me by jumping at me from behind while I sat and stared off the mountain top in the direction of Iwagakure. Surprised I stood up and spun around to see the fox who stated his name as Gaidar. I sat back down to speak to Gaidar and to understand him better. Shortly thereafter we had become close friends sharing stories of our pasts both tragic and lovely. Gaidar would become my personal companion. He was loyal and friendly and would come with me on my journeys wherever I went – bringing along with him his bubbly personality and sarcasm which complimented me quite well. Perhaps that is why we became such close friends.

After the months past Akasha, Gaidar, and myself departed from the mountain leaving Amaimon behind. We would see him again in the near future for sure. But now our journeys took us back to Iwagakure where we would resume our lives there and help better the lives of others.
