## Backstory/Lore!

As a child, Alex grew up in a neglectful family. In side stories, it is written that his family have forgotten many important events, such as Alex’s tenth up to his sixteenth birthday. His family, along with being neglectful, were extremely abusive. It is shown that Alex has a firm hatred towards his family members, claiming that he was never their son or even claiming that “Alexander isn’t my name.” despite it being so.

After leaving home three months after his sixteenth birthday, Alex quickly got a job at an understaffed ‘MandelaTECH’. His two other co-workers, Alice Williams and Benjamin Green, acted like a family to him. It helped Alex move on the tiniest bit from his previous family. After Alice passed, she gave Alex the deed to the Tech Shop. Once Alex was given the ownership of the place at around twenty, Benjamin quickly left the county. MandelaTECH was left understaffed again, leaving Alex to cover all shifts he could.

A long period of time passed, Alex has grown extremely paranoid and anxious. By this stage as well, Alex has grown cold and distant with everyone who he knew before, all apart from Ruth Weaver and Julius Monroe. He’d also gained a new ‘friend’ who went by the name of O’Brien. They had came in with a pair of broken speakers and quickly invited Alex to see him preform, which was turned down with the excuse of ‘I have nobody to cover my shifts,’. A later night after Alex had met O’Brien, he spotted both him and Julius in a parking lot. Upon having a conversation with the two, a loud scream erupted. When the trio found out what had caused it, both Alex and Julius were struck in horror as the body of their friend lay there, blood pooling out under her.

## Deaths!

Alex has died a total of four times.

First time being at his own hands at the age of fifteen, it was caused by an overdose and after being mocked by his sister. He didn’t permanently stay dead however. ‘Death’, or Owen, was coming to collect his soul and took pity on the kid, claiming that it wouldn’t hurt to bring one person back to life. An hour later, he woke up in his bed, unaware of being brought back alive.

Second time being at the hands of an alternate who broke in, the death happened due to Alex’s intrusive/impulsive thoughts and him ultimately deciding to try and spook the alternate. It ended in him getting his neck snapped, instantly causing his death. This death wasn’t permanent either as he was quickly brought back by O’Brien.

Third time was at his own hands once more, it was caused by Alex shooting himself.

The final time was caused by Rene O’Brien while Alex was a ghost. He was stabbed several times directly in the back and then had his heart torn out, killing Alex off for what was supposed to be once and for all.
