Name:Alex Hill
Age:19
In-depth Appearance:Alex stands at an average 5'11" and is of an athletic build. Occasionally playing sports and spending time at the theater had kept him in good shape. Alex has a slight farmer's tan. He has deep blue eyes and dirty blonde hair. His hair style can be classified as messy but somehow kept. It's due to how he keeps his hair cut fairly short but only messes with his hair to dry it and eliminate bed head. Alex also has a resting 'don't care' look about him. The only time he really shows emotion is during high levels of emotion or when he is acting.
Some people would describe the way Alex dresses as overly casual. He usually wears athletic shorts, a t-shirt with some silly image or stupid phrase, and tennis shoes. If he is ever caught wearing anything else it is because of a dress code, he is preparing for a show, or the most rare of him wanting to impress someone. There is a single small scar on the back of his head covered by his hair from an accident when he was four.
Personality:To most Alex appears cold and standoffish, but those who know him well realize he is just a quiet guy. He can seem rude but that is only because he is very direct and rarely lets bias change how he deals with things unless he REALLY dislikes someone. He is fiercely loyal and if someone hurts or wrongs someone he cares about he will defend them, but he rarely defends himself. He loves bringing characters to life and enjoys making people happy despite not seeming like it. He has difficulty trusting people, but once you have it you won't lose it unless you do something to wrong him or those close to him.
Alex doesn't really know what he wants to do with his life. He has dabbled in many things and can be considered a jack of all trades, but a master of none. That is what people say who have never seen him playing some sort of character before. He is very talented at putting on a production and even carrying the whole thing on his back at times. However, Alex doesn't see it that way. He would love to be an actor, but due to his self-deprecating personality he doesn't believe he is any good. Any time someone complements him he just takes it as them being nice and just throwing around complements to all those involved. He never even tells anyone that he is involved in a production. The only way someone will know he was a part of it is if they go to the show or someone else tells them about it.
All in all, Alex is one of those people that only the ones close to him know him well, but even they don't really hear much about what he does with his life. He isn't much for small talk, but if you start speaking with him about something he is passionate about or any deep conversation it will be nearly impossible to get him to shut up. Also in the words of Himeko Inaba from Kokoro Connect, Alex is sort of a selfless freak. If he sees someone in danger or hurt he will risk his well being to help them. Not because he is a good person, but because he at the time either wants to feel better about his actions or fells that the person is worth more than he is. But deep down his only real desire is to keep his friends by his side and the looming end of this summer scares him so much. He doesn't want to get separated, but he knows that this is how life goes.
Backstory:Alex is a member of a pretty big family. From his older brother and sister, to his twin sister and younger brother. Also a younger girl who his family adopted. When he was younger he connected fairly well with others, but eventually someone really close to him betrayed him. Also almost all of the friend groups he has ever been in tend to have a large falling out leaving him to have to decide which side he would join. He never could choose so he always got left behind. He has gotten to the point of blaming himself for these happenings. He has never had a real relationship either. The only occurrence was in fifth grade he rode on the bus home and sat beside a girl. The whole year they got really close even to the point of having a secret 'boyfriend/girlfriend relationship'. Alex thought it was real but over the summer they lost contact and when they met up the next school year she acted like she had never known him.
Over the next couple of years he was constantly bullied yet never stood up for himself. Over this time period he closed himself off to many things primarily when it comes to how he feels. He rarely opens up to anyone now. It takes a long time and much kindness. He is fiercely loyal and will always stand by them but in reverse effect if they break his trust he will never be on their side again unless they go to great lengths to get his forgiveness. Only once starting high school did he start opening up, but what he opened up was really a colder side of him. Only by trying to get to know him will someone actually understand who he is.
Throughout his ninth grade year no one fulfilled that role of someone to connect with him outside of his family. Then in the tenth grade he and Elizabeth were assigned as lab partners. Alex knew who she was because he made it a point to know something about everyone that was in his classes. At first he avoided speaking to her because he didn't want anyone to think he was pandering to the rich kid. But since science was his worst subject he eventually asked her to either tutor him or introduce him to someone that could tutor him. That's when he met more of the group. Slowly over time, spending time together and getting to know each other Alex became friends with those in this small group of friends. He still doesn't talk much, but he will go out of his way to help these friends of his.
Future Plans:He currently has a letter from DePaul University that he has yet to open. He also doesn't plan to open it any time soon because of how scared he is by the implications of either acceptance or even rejection.
