He yearns for efficiency and highly admires proficiency in combat from his fellow disciples. Lex takes pride in his swordsmanship and defense and often willing to spar with anyone who claims they're the greatest swordsman in the world. Despite being grumpy, he is capable of making friends, he mostly keeps a heated gaze during conversation despite not trying to. Rarely would he smile, but those are only during times of either satisfaction or hilarity. Lex hates to admit it, but he has a guilty pleasure over sweets.<br/><br/><strong>Brief History:</strong>Alexander Lucard was born away from the cities and civilization. There, Alexander was raised a quiet life away from danger with his father who did not want to be bothered. There, Alexander learned from his father swordsmanship for swords of all shapes and sizes. However, Alexander proved to be incapable of evading whenever he spared with his father so he made up for this in pure defense as well as taking up a shield to aid his combat prowess. When he came to the age of 12, Alexander moved to civilization to undergo schooling as to not be totally incapable of conforming with society. In school, Alexander began to paint a picture as to why his father did not like civilization; all the people seemed full of themselves with no skills and manners.<br/><br/>It wasn't till later on that when Alexander turned 18 did a brand appear on his hand. It was then his father revealed why he did not wish to be in civilization. He was once a master swordsman that was sought for apprenticeship by many aspiring disciples and was once a disciple himself. He did not wish to raise his only son as a widowed father in a society that continued to bother him. Now, with his son old enough to protect himself, Alexander's father saw fit to send his son to Fort City where he once stood to attend Aterra Academy.<br/><br/><strong>Ability:</strong>Lex is unnaturally strong mainly because he trained to swing the heaviest of swords with at least one hand. He is fairly capable with any sword in his hands with his favorite being a normal long sword. Despite favoring long swords, he is the best at wielding katanas. Lex also has a strong affinity for magic, but currently only uses it to change the form of his sword to meet different scenarios of battle and increase his defense. Unable to evade attacks, Lex's preferable method of defense it to tank attacks with his shield that is empowered by magic he learned from his father to withstand mighty blows. Add on top his strength and endurance, Lex is quite capable taking many attacks with little damage.<br/><br/>His star children would be very capable of great defense and normal physical attack all the while having a recessive ability for magic depending on the conception.
