Alec Harknezz (14th Sun, Fourth Astral Moon [July 14th]) is an Ala Mhigan Hyur who was raised as a refugee in Little Ala Mhigo by his guardian, who he calls his father. Raised in the company of other poor souls displaced from the fall of Ala Mhigo, he saw the harsh realities of being a refugee, but he found solace in the stories of old, of grand knights and heroes who strove to protect the people. On his twenty-first birthday, he left his adopted father's side and journeyed to Ul'dah to find his destiny.

Appearance & Personality

Alec stands fairly tall for a Midlander male, reaching a lean six feet tall. He stands tall, and despite his upbringing he shows the poise of a more dignified man. His skin s fair, marred only by the long scar stretching across his left eye. His hair, a vibrant red, is usually styled up into messy spikes, but despite their look of mess, they are done so on purpose. His face is diamond-shaped with a slightly pointed roman nose and thin lips. His eyes are almond-shaped and a light bluish green with thin, dark red eyebrows and thick lashes. Each of his ears sports a single piercing, following traditions of the past and he has no other piercings or tattoos that are known of. He has a lean, muscular frame, and he moves his body with a fluid grace as he walks. He is usually seen sporting a smile or laughing, and he tends to wear plainer clothes, likely due to those being all he has. He does however seem to take great care with the clothes he has, keeping himself quite clean and orderly.

He is almost always smiling, and seems happy enough on the surface, but as close as he seems to get to someone, his eyes always show some distance, as if he is holding himself back from truly opening up. An outgoing young man, he will approach almost anyone unless they look busy, and he's happy to say hello to anyone who does the same to him. He also often tends to be a bit of a flirt, and it only become more prominent when he's drinking, but he keeps it all in good fun for the most part.

Biography

Childhood

Most of Alec's childhood was spent travelling with his 'father' as his people made their way and finally settled in Little Ala Mhigo. It was then that his father began training him in his own trade, keeping the two of them close to the others in Little Ala Mhigo, but encouraging a healthy distance as well, not trusting the young Alec to remember what to say about the two of them. His days were spent under the caring, yet harsh mentoring hand of his 'father, and his evenings were spent reading about the Knights and the heroes of old.

Teenage

Alec's tutelage under his 'father' continued into his teenage years, and his frame began to show evidence of it. He grew taller, and his frame began to show the lean muscles that were brought on by the tutelage of his father, and he walked with a fluid grace as he went about the settlement. In his free time he explored other activities, helping the other residents where he could, and he started to see more and more the plight of his people, and the way they were treated by the residents of Ul'dah. He grew furious as he saw how badly they were treated, and he got in fights quite often at first, trying to punish those who insulted his people, but after a few harsh losses and alot of bruise he calmed down some and just gritted his teeth at the slurs. He still did his best to help stop the prejudice against the Ala Mhigan refugees, and any others, but he learned he had to do so with tact, not a hard right to the jaw.

Present

With his mind still set on the goal of helping ease the plight of the refugees, and set on finding his own path, instead of the one his father had trained him for, Alec mentioned his wishes, expecting to be chastised harshly for wishing to leave. To his surprise, his father pulled out a small case that contained a large sum of gil, saved from their years in Little Ala Mhigo, and from before the fall of the city, and he told Alec that he had long known that the day woudl come where he would leave to chase his fate. It was shortly after that Alec took a caravan to Ul'dah to seek his future.
