Character history:
Alex B. Y. S. Silver was born on the planet Ichor. Ichor, orbited by a blacklight sun and featuring an ever red sky, has the particularity of being itself orbited by six moons which follow criss-crossing axles, just barely avoiding impact by being ever so slightly off course from each other. Alex was born on the 6th day of June 2126 during what was a triple lunar eclipse on one side of the planet, and a triple solar eclipse on the other. On the day of this birth, he was born veiled, backwards and hanging, meaning that a piece of his mother's placenta covered his face entirely, he came out feet first and his umbilical cord was wrapped around his throat. Despite this ridiculously unfortunate birthing process however, the child survived, the heir to the Silver family.
For the Silvers were nobility by the standards of Ichor. Noble if only through their vestigial role as protectors of the planetary capital and under direct orders of the Archking Raven IVth. This relationship of proximity with the crown extended to the point that Alex was raised alongside the Archking's grandson and only male heir, Raven VIth. The two boys shared much in their youth, from tutors to camaraderie to rivalry. The two boys - who would've otherwise turned to reclusion and depression as a result of the unbearable pressure put upon them by the expectations of their respective parents - found the presence of the other made their duties to their families much more bearable. Where one failed to excel, the other would aid in correcting the fault, when both succeeded, they turned the task into the object of a friendly rivalry and when both failed... well, when you're two noble youths under the tutelage of the greatest minds your planet has to offer, that doesn't actually ever happen, does it? In more ways than one, Raven VIth and Alex Xth were more than any could have ever expected of them and many looked upon their future as Archking and Archknight with great anticipation... but unfortunately for them, "many" does not necessarily mean "all".
During the celebrations of Archking Raven IVth's ninety-seventh birthday, a coup d'état took place and in the chaos that ensued, the king, Alex's parents and many others on both sides were killed. It was only thanks to Alex's quick-wittedness and Raven's sharp reflexes that the two managed to escape. They escaped the castle alive... Alive, and alone.
Over the course of the next three years, under the rule of the new Archking Lionheart the Ist, it was impossible for either of the two young nobles to reveal their true selves. Discarding their titles of nobility, they began to roam the streets as mere urchins, displaying their talents in hopes of a kind soul's small change and picking the pockets of those less inclined to give when starvation overthrew morality. They had played many games in the past, but none where quite as intense as the game they were playing now; Survival.
Of course, merely surviving was not enough; lurking libraries, trading for wealth, they slowly built themselves back up. They had to. In the vain hope that one day another rebellion would follow the first and they'll be called upon to take back their rightful places. It was a foolish thought, but it was one they cherished nonetheless. It kept them going and, in the end, that's what really mattered.
But like all young men devoid of any responsibility other than putting bread on their table who earned themselves too much money, they eventually succumbed to the most dangerous thing the streets have to offer; leisure. Alcohol, drugs, wanton criminal activity, the occasional night of debauchery with the girls their looks and wallets were enough to impress, they enjoyed their youths for it was all they had left and by the time they realized it; that youth was gone.
They had underlings, they were the leaders of a gang. When had it even happened? When had they become the kinds of people that once made their frail child selves tremble?
They were young adults and what had they to show for themselves? Expensive clothes? A liquor cabinet? A penthouse hotel room? No... this was beneath them, wasn't it? They needed more. And where else to find more than within the castle itself.
Looking back, Alex would not be able to tell you the exact point in time when getting back the throne became less about fulfilling their role and more about enriching themselves. Looking back, Alex would not be able to tell you the point where shooting a man in cold blood had less effect on him than having a wad of cash drop into his lap. Looking back, Alex would not be able to tell you when he learned arcane magic most foul only for the sake of quickening the rate at which he could murder those who served the new king, but in the end, it all happened all too fast.
It took too little time, or perhaps far too much, but one day, they finally managed to get the king's personal attention and have assassins be sent after them. That is the night Raven the VIth, the rightful king of Ichor, died. That was the night Alex the Xth, proud knight eternally loyal to his closest friend, lost all sense of morality and caution.
Like a bat out of hell, or a madman with a death wish, Alex single-handedly stormed the tyrant king's castle, killing all in his wake. The barrel of his gun pressed flat against the forehead of the king and as he pulled the trigger...
...he woke up in a dark void. A grinning figure as his only company. Before he could connect the dots between that moment the king's blood stained the throne and the smiling man appeared before him, he heard a voice speak; "My name is Omni."
Physical Description:
Alex is 9'3" tall and weights 369lbs, giving him a body mass index of 21.1. In addition to this, he features a somatotype of 144, sitting perfectly between the mesomorph and ectomorph body types. As a result, he has broad shoulders, but an otherwise lean and elongated body, both muscular and toned. His fingers specifically are particularly long, ending in black claws as do the digits of most Ichorians.
His facial features are salient. The most noticeable among them being his deep seated, heavy lidded eyes and strong yet well kept brows give him the appearance of being ever vigilant and vaguely irate. Around his eyes are a thin black border which - while typical of Ichorians and something he's had since birth - give him the appearance of wearing eyeliner. His high-seated cheek bones and strong jaw give him a rough, masculine appearance. Due to the symmetry and allure of these traits, he can be seen as objectively beautiful, though what constitutes beauty for most is subjective.
Features aside, his face is further characterized by four noticeable traits; silver slitted eyes, a beauty mark under the exterior corner of his right eye, a black ring on his left ear and lower lip and a scar, this one vertical, at the center of his left jawbone. Along with his full mane of thick black hair, long black prehensile tail and two pairs of silver horns, he is thus difficult to miss in a crowd.
Alex, due to Ichor's rough atmosphere, has seen his skin bleach and discolor; his skin is thus very pale and almost gray in hue. This causes his veins, which are purple in color and exaggerated in number, to stand out somewhat where visible; his unique vascular system typical of Ichorians offsetting the difficulty his heart would otherwise have pumping blood through his massive body.
Though his wardrobe varies and he is most likely to simply wear anything he deems comfortable - having a notable preference for the color black if only due to nostalgia for his home - he tends to lean towards a typical attire which consists of a black leather coat with a silver fur collar, worn open with sleeves rolled up to just below the elbows, black leather gloves, a pair of gray stonewashed jeans with a black leather belt sporting a silver buckle and black combat boots sharing his belt's design. He also wears a silver pendant featuring an unicursive hexagram. He is rarely seen without a cigarette between his lips.
