Appearance Details:

At first glance, Xander is a rough looking man with skinned tanned from the sun and covered with scars. Many that see him will either stare or just simply run away, his intimidating appearance striking fear into their hearts. Many, many years out on the see have taught him to ignore any dirt and grime that smudges his face and clothing, yet somehow he always smells of sandalwood and rum. Very rarely will you see him without his long leather coat and blackened eyepatch. A small golden earring dangles from his left ear. However, the rumors surrounding this man have him described to look like a hideous, disgusting monster with the Devil standing at his back.

Character Synopsis:

Xander has spent nearly his whole life at sea, and refuses to die anywhere but at sea. Born to the previous Captain's first mate, Morgrim, and a wench from a bar on land, Xander only really ever knew his father. As a young boy he beaten by the others, and forced to do tasks that none of the rest of the crew wanted to do like swabbing the deck and taking care of those who had gotten ill while at sea. As he grew older, the Captain of the ship could see the potential that within Xander's heart, and took him under his wing. In the end, his father grew resentful of the attention given to Xander by the captain, and attempted to kill his own son. This led to a fight between the Captain and his first mate, with neither being the winner. With the Captain and his first mate dead, Xander took up the post of Captain at he age of 17, and has become the most notorious and feared pirate Captain to ever sail the seas.

Xander's ship, The Devil's Serpent, has black sails with three Ouroboros linked together like rings, one on top and two on the bottom.

Personality:

If you have ever heard the rumors built around Xander and his crew, you would hear how ruthless, how barbarous him and his crew are. But really only his crew have seen what he is really like. Xander is quite likable when you get on his good side. Although he rarely ever smiles outside of a fight, he treats everyone fairly and isn't the murderer people think he is. His trust is not easily earned, but once you have it you will have an ally for life. However short tempered he may be, he has never struck down a life that did not deserve it. Although if you choose to betray him and his trust, you will see the monster the rumors make him out to be.

Age: 27
Home Country: Amestris
Background: Eric is one of a set of twins. Separated at the young age of 6, his sister Ella was taken by a cult who had disguised themselves as State Alchemists. They said it was protocol, that she had potential, but they never said for what. For years he lived with his mother, wishing more than anything his beloved sister would return to him. News soon reached the family that she was dead, killed in a severe accident along with many others. This drove Eric mad. It was like a piece of him died. By the age 13, he had trained in the arts of alchemy for years, and attempted Human Transmutation to try and bring her back. But of course, it failed. For the price of seeing the Truth, parts of his flesh had vanished, leaving only the exposed muscle tissue, a wound that never heals. Struck with grief and shame, he covered the flesh taken away from him with bandages, and left home, never to return.

Now, Eric finds himself working as a State Alchemist, one who is often sent to investigate ruins of old and collect knowledge of alchemy that is not well known. Bearing the well known title of The Lightning Alchemist, not many know of his past and why he can use his own alchemy without the need of a transmutation circle.

Personality: Eric is quite arrogant and doesn't work well with others. He takes his inner pain and takes it out on others so naturally he has a hard time making friends. When it comes to talking about himself, Eric tends to fall silent and gets quite defensive when asked about the bloody bandages he wears.
