Background:
___Born into the house of a minor Davion noble, and eventually disowned by
the family. Alexander took care of his own education and enrolled in a
Federated Suns military academy. Eventually tired of the bureaucracy and
left, bouncing through several mercenary units before joining a Lyran unit
simply to get a respectable job piloting a battlemech. Especially skilled at
piloting heavy mechs, Alexander has skills in coordinating fire, identifying
threats on the battlefield, and leading his men into battle without foolish
mistakes. Unfortunately Alex cannot lead too many people at once or he
loses sight of his part in the battle and his performance suffers as a
result. He is ambidextrous and has excellent eyesight, allowing him to
multi-task within his cockpit and identify enemy units from scrambled sensor
scans that normally wouldn't yield any information to anyone.
___Alex can do only basic maintenance and repair on his battlemech, relying on
others to see to its upkeep. He is a smooth talker and because of his
ambidextrous abilities, he is easily able to play slight of hand, steal, or
con people out of money or possessions, though he usually does so only to
entertain the people he is duping and those watching. Alex can be serious
and self-disciplined when necessary, but because he views a lot of things
as unnecessary (certain military protocols, bureaucracy, officers thinking
they're superior, etc.) he is only popular amongst the lower-ranking
mechwarriors. Reliable and dependable, but not immediately trusting of
others. Alex likes the cold and cannot stand heat, which means he is
selective in his weapons fire. Alex also suffers from severe allergies,
requiring him to take daily medication to remain healthy. He is otherwise
resistant to disease and keeps himself in good condition, though he isn't
the strongest or most durable person by any means.
___Alexander is respected for his skill as a mechwarrior and his
self-discipline, often giving orders on the battlefield to people he isn't
in charge of, usually with good intentions and better results, having saved
the lives of two other mechwarriors by ordering them to new positions in one
case. However, his irreverent attitude and laziness for manual labor
virtually guarantee that he will never rise higher than a lance commander,
if that.
