Personality: An easy going person with a confident attitude, Alex walks through life with a relaxed self-assuredness that is at times frustrating. He is not the kind of person to get worked up about the small things in life, or the large things for that matter. He does not worry when things go wrong, or agitated when the unexpected happens; on the one hand this means he is able to keep a level head when others would panic but it also means that problems tend to spiral out of control because he overestimated his ability to deal with them or he just didn’t think it was worth acting about them.

He is someone who dislikes complications. He has simple tastes, a simple lifestyle and a simple, straight forward approach to problem solving. He has confidence in his strength above all else and isn’t one to think too hard about a situation, instead preferring to charge ahead and trust that he is strong enough to succeed; some would call him decisive, others an idiot.

One thing Alex loves above all else is a good challenge. For someone so easy going he can be surprisingly riled up by a strong opponent and he’ll never pass up an opportunity to find out just how strong he really is.

Power Level: 700

Abilities: 
Baji Quan – Alex is a master of the martial art Kai Men Baji Quan, known for its explosive power over short ranges and the fact that it makes extensive use of those parts of the body that are naturally the hardest. Because of this Alex’s fighting style is based around the idea of alternating offence and defence, closing the distance between him and his opponent and striking with sudden, deadly force, before falling back.

Overdrive – As part of his training Alex has learned a technique which further boosts his offensive power and speed for very short durations. Similar to the Kaioken, this ability allows Alex to momentarily push past his normal limits to move faster and hit harder than he would normally be able to; this is achieved by supressing his Ki and internalising it for a few moments before releasing all of that stored power in one burst and delivering it to his muscles. The downsides of this ability are that he is weakened in the moments before he releases his power as he devotes all of his energy to building up for the next attack as well as the backlash that comes after pushing himself so hard.

Techniques:
Ki Guard/Ki Armoured Strike – By strengthening and condensing the Ki around certain parts of his body Alex is able to create a kind of temporary armour around himself. This armoured Ki can be used either as a defence to strengthen his guard or to add some extra power to his next attack. A relatively cheap and simple technique than is nonetheless quite effective at close range.

Piercing Ki Strike – By gathering Ki energy in the palm of his hand Alex releases a focused narrow beam of Ki. While potent this beam dissipates quickly so the range is limited, but it is strong enough to pierce through armour as well as the person wearing it.

Ki Explosion –By releasing a wave of Ki in all directions Alex is able to harm and push back his opponent. While rarely lethal, most who have been hit by it describe it as feeling like being hit by a truck, or hitting the ground after falling for a great height; in other words, a solid impact which hits the entire body at once. If timed right it could also potentially be used to deflect Ki attacks.

Transformations: None

History: There is not much to say about Aleksandar’s past, nothing of note anyway. The son of a shopkeeper, he spent a lot of his youth working in the store alongside his mother and father and the rest of it getting into trouble. Being naturally energetic, confident and also somewhat lacking in concern for consequences let to Alex being somewhat of a handful for his parents, eventually leading them to enrolling him in a martial arts school to hopefully give him an outlet for his excess energy as well as teach him some discipline.

This was probably the worst idea they had ever had.

Being a young boy and obviously finding martial arts very cool, Alex threw himself into his training eagerly and to the surprise of his trainers and his fellow students showed an amazing capacity to learn. It was not that he picked things up quicker than anyone else, or had a particular talent for it, but rather that he trained harder and longer than anyone else; he would spend all day, every day practising the techniques or strengthening his body with a simple minded focus, long after anyone else would have quit, and showed rapid growth because of it.

Eventually his master decided that Alex had outgrown his ability to teach him and offered Alex and his parents the opportunity for him to train with his own master, though this would require sending him away. His parents were reluctant at first but Alex was able to convince them to let his go, eager to grab at any opportunity to grow stronger or learn more.

It was his new master who first taught him about Ki and trained him in its use. It was after learning Ki that he first began entering tournaments, sometimes winning and sometimes losing to someone stronger, but always happy just to be able to face new challenges.
