CharacterName: Alexander Manix
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Symbol:Appearance: 5' 8'' Black hair in a buzz-cut. Brown eyes, 150 lbs, muscular build, but mostly arms and shoulders. He wears a gray long sleeved shirt, light brown cargo shorts with a HUGE pocket on each leg, the pants are held up by large suspenders under his shirt.
Personality: Alexander rarely speaks unless spoken to, or when it is time to be sarcastic. He greatly dislikes crowds and loud environments, but rarely complains when forced into such locations. While he is not anti-social by any means, Alexander may often seclude himself to clear his mind and enjoy a sandwich or two. On the topic of sandwiches, Alexander takes his very seriously and is convinced that they are the source of his sanity.
History: Growing up as the eldest of 4 brothers Alexander had to learn how to defuse situations as they came along in his household. This taught him how to analyze a scene and solve the presented problem. This also taught him to speak only when necessary as his brothers may not always be so receptive of his opinions. After graduating from Lodestar academy, he attends Beacon in the hopes of following in his father's footsteps and becoming a huntsman.
Strength: Alexander's attention to detail lends him an excellent advantage when paired with his reactive fighting style. Alexander possesses a healthy amount of upper body strength. Alexander's reaction time comes down to milliseconds in a stressed situation.
Weakness: When presented with many distractions or many enemies, Alexander has cannot react to every action, so he may falter. Alexander fights reactively, so he is never one to make the first move. Alexander lacks speed while running, and has difficulty fighting on the move.
Semblance: Alexander, upon activation of his semblance, amplifies his senses ten-fold becoming hyper-aware of his surroundings, able to notice extremely small details and subtle motions and sounds, allowing him to react better. While using his semblance, all details Alexander does not wish to focus on are amplified as well, meaning he, paradoxically, can potentially become more distracted.
