Personality
Alexander has a very unprofessional feel to him, never dressing as an Investigator, finding the uniform very boring as well as not to his liking and often not talking with any amount of respect to anyone save for a very select few that Alex picks that he deems worthy of said respect. He also carries himself with an air of cockiness and arrogance, whether it has been earned or not is uncertain. He also carries a layer of insidiousness to him as his eyes seem to hide a sinister need and a ghastly secret.
That need makes itself apparent when he is engaged in combat. While outside of it he would appear as a lazy, cocky, disrespectful bastard being in the midst of a fight is where Alexander is truly in his element. His demeanor changes into that of an insatiable beast that has no care save for bringing about the bloodshed of his enemies, whether they be ghouls or humans. Still he has no real hatred for ghouls. All the bloodshed they cause he attributes to their base instinct, their needs for survival. After all, humans are no better when put under stress but humans can't really give him the challenge in a fight that he needs. Hence his reason for joining the CCG. Or so he likes to tell.
Fighting Style
Alexander's style of fighting is very unorthodox and often leaves himself full of openings, although this is often done on purpose to make his opponents predictable. He prefers to get very up close and personal with his opponents as he often chooses fist style weaponry to make use of his enhanced strength and street brawler style of fighting. As he fights opponents that also have a preference for close quarters combat, he often aims for catching them off guard or making use of predictable attacks to try and take them down to the ground. Once he has them on the ground he'll then attempt to batter and bash in their body and skulls. When he has to deal with fighters that make use of ranged methods, Alex will usually just do what he can to get close while trying to predict their attacks, becoming much more defensive until he gets in close.
When he's pressed up into a corner is when Alex begins to revert to how he fought back in the ghoul's death pits, becoming much more animalistic, crazed, and bloodthirsty as he throws aside any and all caution to the wind and focuses on trying to take down and tear into his opponent as the base survival instinct takes over. His attacks even go so far as to try to bite the enemy or even gouge out their eyes if he can manage it, just struggling to get whatever edge he can over an enemy.
History
Alexander's childhood was a strange one. He spent most of it in a very neglected orphanage. Not only did the caretakers there seem to not have any care for them but all the other kids were very aggressive and often stole and fought with each other, mostly the older kids. However there was a much darker secret to this orphanage that Alexander learned. The orphanage sold a number of their orphans to a sadistic group of ghouls that would pit them against each other in an underground child's fighting ring where the winner's get to survive another horrifying night in the ringleader ghoul's dungeon and the losers are consumed in a grand feast.
The even more horrifying part was that while the winner's weren't fed regularly, what little they were fed the leftover remains of the losers. While Alex and many others were reluctant to eat this eventually the hunger and starvation would become too much to bear and they all knew that if they lost their strength then they'd be the next meal. Soon enough they were all just feral children, fighting for their survival in the ghoul's brutal games. Yet they all knew that there would be no escape for them for once the fighters grew to be around the age of twelve to fourteen, they'd be taken away never to be seen again. Their screams would fill the cells of the other children as they all dreaded the day they too would be taken away and feasted upon. Yet none of them ever fought it. They all just accepted their fate. However Alex wasn't going to be like them. He was one of the more brutal fighters and he'd be damned if he survived all these years just to be eaten and feasted on like some cattle. So when the time came that he'd reached fourteen and the ghoul's butcher came to cart him away, he fought. He clawed, bit, and scratched using everything he could to try and escape the ghoul. It wasn't enough though as his small malnourished body couldn't produce the strength to even bother the ghoul.
He didn't give in though, even as the ghoul strapped him in and prepared to cut him open, he struggled and fought against his fate. Luckily, his fate wasn't to be cut open and served as a meal it would seem as the mansion that housed the dungeon and fighting ring was rocked from an explosion. The CCG had come to raid the building and they came down hard. Alex listened to the sounds of battle echoing all throughout the complex and began to go rabid, pulling and yanking against his restraints until by some miracle he pulled them loose. He raced, not down to free the other children but up to the call of battle. He entered the first floor of the mansion and gazed upon the many, many bodies of ghouls and humans alike. He watched as they fought and slaughtered each other, the humans with their quinque and the ghouls with their kagune. He watched as one human fell and the ghoul that had just slayed them began to feast on the body before pausing and sensing Alexander's presence. It looks up with a bloodied and twisted smile as it begins to make its way towards Alex, taunting the small child.
Yet Alex, even though a small child, didn't hesitate as he picked up a fallen investigator's quinque and charged at the ghoul with a bloodthirsty and desperate battle cry. The ghoul, amused by this, simply bats the child with it's kagune to a wall, breaking some of the child's bones on impact. This doesn't stop him from getting up however and try again as the ghoul laughs and right as it's about to strike again, a shot rings out and pierces its chest. It looked down, dumbfounded by this sudden attack from an unseen sniper, yet they still had to deal with this child who was upon them now and wailing into them with a surprising amount of strength for the child's size. Just as the ghoul is about to attack again another shot pierces their chest and they are sent flying backwards. Before they could even recover, Alex was upon them and wailing on them, smashing in their ribs, chest and specifically the face as Alex bashed and caved in on them with an almost animalistic ferocity.
Unbeknownst to Alex, the sniper watched as this small, malnourished fourteen year old tore into this ghoul. Even though his two shots weakened the ghoul, this child was doing a considerable amount of damage to it. He smiles as he radios it in and targets the young Alexander as a candidate for a special program. It'd later be found out that a few other of the children from the dungeon would also be chosen as a candidate for this program. As the chaos settled, Alex was placed under the CCG's custody who took his story and did many medical check ups on him. He was then talked to by a couple of the special investigators about how they saw his fight and how impressed they actually were. They offered him a deal that, should he want to, would make him an Investigator but also a greater fighter.
When he was presented with this deal, all he needed to know is if he'd be able to fight as he wished and also able to combat the ghouls on even ground. Upon getting his answer, he didn't hesitate in accepting. So he spent the next eight years training and undergoing the Sunlit Garden although he never really got along with the other children there, having to spend these years growing out of the survivalist mindset he'd been raised with. Eventually he made it through and was given his quinque, which was made from the ghoul he'd fought in the mansion all those years ago and his first assignment which he'd been told was actually a very important one and one that'd be sure to teach him something.
