Boundless Endurance - An elite warrior is trained to be tough, and Alexander has survived his fair share of beatings. From ogres to drakes, this knight has survived it all. He has been able to shake off dire wounds long enough to win battles or to receive healing.

Combat Superiority - Versed in rigorous combat training and field work, Alexander has found how best to clip the wings of enemies, stop them in their tracks, break armor from soft spots. These skills range heavily, but are the things every warrior must know.

Appearance

Tall and strong, Alexander is a lean creature; toned for war. Numerous small scars dot his body, nothing too grevious, except for a mark of impalement that can be seen below his heart on both sides; the mark of a nearly mortal spearing. Normally Alexander is wearing red, in honor of Stromgarde, and even more often in public he is at least wearing some form of basic armor, with a sword at his side. In his raiment, the armor that saved his life numerous times, a high red plume rises from his helm, the plates shine white and red. His strong shield shades those by his side from harm.

Personality

Alexander is a passionate individual, pushed to highs and lows emotionally with ease. He pushes loved ones away, only to want them to return, he is a lonely knight; and even more lonely as a champion. Pushing aside his internal grief, he steps up to the more pressing matters of Stromgarde, its service to the Alliance and hopefully its reclamation and rebirth. (This rebirth may not happen in his homeland, and he understands this)

History

Raised from birth, in Arathi. Raised in the saddle of a horse, in the highlands. Raised with sword in hand, in the battle yard. Alexander was a child of a middle class family, and he was taken as a squire by a knight of Stromgarde.

As time passed, so did Alexander's family, murdered by one enemy or another, what little of it that is left are scattered and slowly coming together. Alexander took his lord's shield when he fell in battle, and still keeps it to this day, oaths are sworn upon it, upon the honor of Strom.

His service to Strom gained him the titles "The Exemplar" and "Dragon of Arathor", as he lead the charge on battles across Arathi, Dun Morogh, and even into Outland during the Burning Crusade. He lost friends during those times, and gained others. He gladly trains Stromgardian blooded youths in the ways of knighthood, and he will continue the campaign, carrying the banner of his nation into the days before him.

Alexander's life was simple, but contempt has grown for any that he believes that would do harm to Strom, or her children. This lead to more than one confrontation with Alliance military forces as he and his kin pledged allegiance to assist them, only to be told; Arathi is not worth saving.

Now, Alexander is one of the leaders of The Brotherhood of Strom. And the future may be bleak, but never is the future too dark when you are Stromgardian.
