List your other accounts and the matching characters: Only one thus far.
Age: 18
Bloodline: Half- but she doesn't know it.
Gender: Female
Job:
Standing: Death Eater
Plot: Alex is on a quest for power and reknown. As she's a follower of the Dark Lord, she's trying to work her way up the rankings and earn her place in his following. Also, she's working towards being able to flaunt her success in her fathers face.
Personality: Alexis actually seems to have two personalities. Who she really is and who she shows to the rest of the world. The girl who most of the world sees is cold and generally not that friendly. She takes a cynical and pessimistic outlook on the world, backing it up with biting sarcasm. She has an attitude which most would classify as 'bad.' Also, she tends to speak her mind- not paying much mind to anyone else's feelings. Driven, is another word that classifies Alex. She's not been taken seriously for most of her life, and she's very driven to accomplish her goals because of it. She's a bit arrogant, and likes witty banter. Read that as she runs her mouth a lot more than she should.
The Alex which only a few trusted people actually see, is totally different. She's actually pretty self conscious. Not nearly as well put together and confident as she appears. This girl is the one who wants to seek approval of who she is and what she's trying to become. She's respectful of those who deserve it. Alexis would also lay down her life for the people who actually earn her trust. Her sense of right and wrong is a little skewed; and she let's her temper get the best of her bad moments.
History: Born the youngest daughter of Damien Alexander and Isabella Tyler, two pure blooded up and coming Death Eaters, one would've thought Alexis would have a wonderful enough life.
One would think wrong.
No one outside of her parents knew that Alex was not in fact Damien's daughter. He held a very strong dislike for her because of that fact. He tolerated her fine up until she was about five. When she decided that she idolized her 'daddy.' She'd follow him around, and pester him with questions instead of just staying in her nursery or with her nanny like their other two children. One evening, her questions drove him too far and he struck the little girl. It started a vicious cycle. Despite the fact that her father had hurt her, she blamed herself and strove to become better for him, wanting his approval desperately.
Alexis's siblings tried to keep her away from their father; they didn't know why he was so patient and caring with them, but so violent when it came to the youngest. Isabella tried to calm Damien's nerves as well, but it only seemed to add fuel to the flames. The family all assumed that when she went to Hogwarts, things would only get better. They'd all been sorted into Slytherin and the same was expected for Alex. Then, she was sorted into Ravenclaw. The first holiday home was a nightmare; most of the family was okay with her being in Ravenclaw- it was after all, far more acceptable than either Gryffindor or Hufflepuff. Her father though, acted appalled by it. Just another reason for him to dislike her.
Still, Alexis strove for her father's approval; getting beating after beating when she failed. When she turned fourteen, she changed. Though most who knew her, suspected it was something that happened at school; it was actually after her father had been even nastier than normal one evening. She'd brought home a friend- who'd been another Ravenclaw. Damien had been furious- she'd befriended a half blood and brought the cur home. Alex had gotten a vicious beating and a verbal berating as well. It was at that point that something in the girl snapped. The innocent, sweet look in her eyes was gone, replaced with a narrow cynicism; and her voice was always laced with sarcasm. It was then she took an interest in the violence; in some of the weapons her father had around. Alexis had her brother teach her. Teach her how to fight; how to inflict pain (not that she needed that lesson) and how to brandish weapons for fear and pain.
Now? Now her father was interested. He'd broken her spirit and in doing so, she had become just like him. He, of all things, tried to make amends. After all the times that he'd hurt her though, Alex spurned him; deciding to make her own way in the world of the Death Eaters, becoming a viper and surpassing her father.
Appearance: Alex looks all the part of the sweet innocent teen aged girl. She's got long blondish brown hair that falls in loose curls to just past her shoulders. Her eyes are a light blue color, with long dark lashes framing them. She's a little taller than average height, at 5'7" and has a curvy, but muscular build.
Role Play Sample: A dull sickening thud was heard as the man landed on a table which collapsed underneath him. He blinked wearily as he heard sharp footsteps walking over to him; he glanced up to where the wisp of a girl stood over him. The girl who'd sent him tumbling onto the table. The light framed her, putting a golden cast to her hair; which as she tilted her head to one side made her look almost like an angel.
Alexis took another step closer to the man, crouching down over him, giving him a sweet smile, "Think it's alright to get grabby with a girl do you?" She asked softly, her voice sounding just a hint sultry. Reaching down, and lifting the man's chin, she could tell he was still a little dazed from her stunner spell and the fact that she'd sent him sprawling into the table- His eyes were still having a bit of trouble focusing. Her smile turned a bit sadistic as she moved one hand to the base of her back; brandishing a small dagger that she had sheathed there. The blade glinted even in the dull light behind her. She saw him eyes widen and focus instantly, 'Ah... there. He's back with me now.' "You do realize... That. Wasn't. Nice." Without the slightest bit of hesitation, she brought the blade down, slicing deeply into his left hand- the one that he'd grabbed her with. The man howled; cradling his hand over his chest- because as quickly as she'd been there, Alexis was standing over him again. A lazy smirk crossing her lips as she turned away.
