Best to sleep on it.
Name: Alexander "Alex" Millard
Age: 25
Gender: Male

Appearance: Alex stands at exactly 5'10" (177cm), with blond, messy hair that's vaguely spikey and blue eyes. When he's not wearing his armor, he's usually wearing a tight black shirt with a gray scarf, along with beige pants, a belt that hangs loosely around his waist, and brown hiking boots. While in the Labyrinth, he'll sport his typical armor, which is simply just torso armor that covers his front and back, and with shoulderguards attached. This is complemented with general leggings and armguards. All his armor is a steely silver with yellow lining tracing the outer edges. Usually, he tucks his scarf into his armor, with it occassionally falling out.

Background: Alexander Millard hails from a rather wealthy family east of Damir. He wasn't the first-born son, leaving a smaller inheritance for himself and a good chance for work. He ended up competing against his elder brother multiple times as a child, believing he could do him one better and win the entire inheritance for himself. He was the more physically-inclined one, while his brother was more academic.

The two did manage to push each other quite often, though, and would only halt when their father abruptly sent Alex to study at the Midgard Library at the age of 13 to study. The Library, an organization devoted to gathering and preserving knowledge - academics, legends, etc. - gave him many opportunities to meet explorers of his time as well as expand his knowledge. Not long after his arrival, he became an apprentice for a Hoplite, and simply trained to be one of the Library's investigators as a Protector.

During his time at the Midgard Library, Alex met and had a relationship similar to his brother's with a certain girl. While their rivalry was often heated, it was all in good fun and in good intentions. They often had the same mission assigned to them, and would more or less watch each other's backs: Alex as the shield, and her as the sword. Currently, Alex's mission in Damir is a separate one from the girl's mission in another city, but he plans to propose to her once they return to Midgard.

Equipment: Typically decked in armor: chestguard, shoulderguard, leggings, armguards. Underneath, he wears a chainmail. Arms-wise, he carries a mace in his dominant hand and a kite shield in the other. All of these are plain iron, nothing special about them.

Role/Specialty: He is of the Fortress class. He's builky and heavy, especially with his heavier armor equipped. This does end up slowing him down, though, so he's liable to take hits more often than not, and he's eventually going to get worn out from them. It also means that he's going to be distracting the enemies. If they get past him and/or ignore him, though, then he won't be able to reform the line in front of the squishies. His lack of speed does mean he'll want the monsters coming at him to counterattack instead of readying an attack outright. His lack of speed means that he wouldn't be able to land blows very easily anyways. Armor also doesn't do much against magic and the like, unfortunately.

Level: 5 /70
Abilities:
  • Taunt/Shield/1: Alex bangs his shield with his mace, in an attempt to attract enemy aggro and attention more onto him and less onto his comrades. Roll 1d20, Success: 17-20.
  • Shield Wall/Passive/1: Standing side-by-side with a comrade inspires them to shrug off any damage they may take thanks to his shield, and, of course, be a lot safer from being hit by anything.
  • Smite/Bind,Shield/2: Rams an enemy in front of him with his shield to push them back. If he's lucky enough to land a blow to the head, then inflicts a head bind. 2: Increased chances. Roll 1d50, Success: 46-50
  • Swordbreaker/Shield,Bind/1: Successfully deflecting a melee attack gives a 1/20 chance of binding the corresponding limb. Roll 1d20, Success: Nat 20.
