Name: Alex Bihar
Gender: Male
Age: 16
Occupation: None in particular.
Appearance:
Alex basically looks like your average sixteen year old. Well, with an Indian twist, of course. He’s roughly six feet and two inches tall, something he gets from his parents. He has a thin build, but he works out often so he has quite a bit of muscle. Alex isn’t ripped, but he does have a nice six pack. Even though he has a six pack, this doesn’t mean he has those ripped man-boob like muscle. That just bugs him. His skin is an even shade of tan, but slightly darker than his younger brother’s. His hair is black and goes to his shoulders. Alex keeps his hair up about ninety percent of the time, however, just because it annoys him most of the time. He refuses to get it cut shorter though. Alex’s eyes are basically black. His parents always joke about him having soulless eyes—something that might almost seem true. There is a light tint of brown in his eyes, but you only see that if he’s staring at the sun. Alex’s teeth are mostly straight, with the exception of his canine teeth that are pointed in an odd outward way. His parents decided he didn’t need braces, however, so sometimes when he bites his lip or grins a certain way he looks like he has fangs. Alex hates this, because he thinks it makes him look like a vampire.
For clothing, Alex prefers dark colors. He wears black and gray a lot, but there’s an occasional white shirt in his laundry. Alex generally sticks to a snug T-shirt that shows he has muscle, but you would only be able to tell by his arms and his size in reality. Occasionally he will wear a jacket over the shirt, but only if it’s cold. This jacket is a simple one, being black in color as well. If he does choose to wear the jacket, that’s one of the off occasions that Alex will wear a white shirt and he will also leave it about a quarter of the way unzipped. The jacket is zip up and has pockets on the side. Instead of a normal hood, Alex’s jacket has a faux furred hood. It keeps him warm, so he doesn’t complain. The only thing special about it is the back. It has a giant wolf paw print on it that is sewed on in red. Alex wears jeans all the time. You’d never, ever see him in shorts. For jean colors, he goes for gray ones or dark blue. They generally drag on the ground as well, something that Alex likes. He wears simple black and white Converse on his feet. Obviously he wears socks, but they’re just plain white ones. All in all, Alex is basically a very color-neutral guy. Even his hair ties are black. For accessories, he does have a simple gold chain that was given to him by his father. He wears it all the time, though he isn’t quite sure why. He doesn’t need a belt, but that’s only really because his parents get his clothes custom fitted, seeing as his size is rather…off.
History:
Alex was born and raised in the town of Pallet. He was born in the month of December 2nd as Suraj Bihar. His family owned a decent two-story home there, and never found reason to move so they never did. When the bad things started to happen, it almost seemed as if Pallet was going to be forever safe. That is, until Team Rocket finally arrived. Alex’s parents had him and his younger brother hide. Alex’s mother was pregnant at the time, but luckily she was getting some needed supplies in Johto. Seeing as Alex was in charge that night, he took his brother and hid on the outer edge of Pallet Town, near the sea. They watched helplessly as Team Rocket destroyed their home, wondering if their father was still alive or not. They arrived back to the house only to find it in ruins. Their father was alive, but it seemed like everything had changed. His father had his leg crushed, and was forever imprisoned with a gimp. Luckily they had no Pokémon, so Team Rocket hadn’t gained a thing. That was the day Alex changed his name from Suraj to Alex. He didn’t know why he did it, but he did. He also vowed to get revenge on Team Rocket.
On Alex’s 16th birthday, he decided to venture out to the sea once more. By now it was December, cold and snowing. He was wearing his jacket when he left, seeing as it was so cold out. When he paused at the sea, Alex sat down on the bank and simply thought. He didn’t know how long the time went by, but he just thought and thought. A few hours later was when he noticed it. There was a blue raft being churned in the waves. It was like you see on boats—the circle shaped things that people throw in the water when you fall overboard. Alex noticed something odd about this lifesaver though—it seemed to have a head and a tail. Seconds later, he realized it wasn’t a raft, but a Pokémon. Without caring for his own safety, Alex dove into the churning winter waves to save it.
Upon pulling it out, Alex saw the Pokémon was barely alive. Though he was soaking wet and shivering, Alex wrapped the snake-like Pokémon in his jacket and ran back home. His T-shirt was soaked to the bone and he was freezing, but the adrenaline rush made him uncaring for his own safety. Finally he arrived at his slightly broken home. Alex brought the Pokémon inside, but collapsed in the doorway. His little brother found him there and ran to get his father. Alex fought hypothermia along with the little Dratini, but together they pulled through. In the end, it all turned out alright. Dratini and Alex are almost inseparable. Dratini enjoys coiling itself around Alex’s body for fun.
Personality:
The first thing you’d notice about Alex as far as personality goes is that he is very serious. Alex doesn’t take any crap from anyone, and won’t back down in a fight. He’s strong willed and very stubborn, but knows when and when not to be. Alex is also a very quiet person and doesn’t really have many friends, so he tends to keep to himself. He’s very open with his little brother, however. His little brother really is only four years younger than Alex himself, but Alex still teases him like he was a kid. Alex is very protective of his sibling along with his Pokémon, and often blames himself if something bad happens. All in all, he’s really a nice guy, but most people don’t see past the muscles or the frowny expression on his face. Though he keeps to himself a lot, Alex is actually quite smart. He's been called a genius, but prefers to keep his...talent hidden. Giant overshadow for his brother, the poor little kid.
