• 

  Alphonse has well kept neck-length red hair framing calculating green eyes, standing just over six feet with pale white skin. Wearing a white jacket over a soft black shirt with pants and shoes of the highest quality he can afford, he also wears a black hat with a small black feather that seems both old and well maintained. While able to walk around just fine, he is always found with a strong metal cane with an orb of a semi-precious gem affixed to the tip. Overall Alphonse gives off the airs of one proud of his appearance and of being of incredibly confident of himself and his abilities.
  
  His clothing hides the variety of scars and burns that he had collected over his childhood, some gained while learning harsh lessons after failing and the worst from when his parents tried to kill him. Unless trying to disguise himself, Alphonse tends to keep good posture and always tries to put his best impression forward even when no one is around. When thinking or overly excited he tends to twirl his cane or any other similarly shaped object that is nearby as if unable to keep his hands still. If at all possible he tries to conceal any weaponry he might have both to make them a surprise and to not dilute his attempt at a high-scale appearance.

  Alphonse was born to a whore and a drug dealer living in poverty on the streets of his hometown. Barely kept alive by negligent parents, he was forced from an early age to start caring for himself for his own survival. The hard lessons of the street made him incredibly crafty and taught him all he needed to know of the illegal sides of the world, all while ignoring his parents who did nothing to help him beyond give him a small room to live in. That negligence nearly cost him his life, however, though it would also lead to a great discovery about himself.
  
  Fearing what their son was becoming, Alphonse's parents ambushed their son in his room one night, stabbing at his chest with whatever they could find in the house such as a kitchen knife and broken bottle. While he would have been content to let them live out their own lives, he managed to turn the tables on the two after discovering his ability to use the force and slew the both of them in a fit of rage and betrayal by drawing a weapon from across the room to his hand. Taking what money they had, he burned their house down and left his hometown to heal and avoid anyone else taking revenge. His wounds were too great for him to make it far, however, and son he collapsed in an alley feeling that death was just around the corner.
  
  Awakening in a strange room, Alphonse found himself saved by a Jedi nearly a decade his elder who had settled in the area to try to do what good he could. Taking the boy under his wing, the Jedi began to teach him how to control his powers while also giving him a proper education and instilling the values of the Jedi Order into him. Suspicious of such wanton generosity, however, Al would sneak away when he could to keep himself grounded with the local underground and keep his other skills sharp during this time. He befriended another man a few years older than him who happened to be an Exile, learning about the other side of the Civil War and gaining a clarity unique to one knowing both sides but not involved with either. It was through this insight that he learned that both his mentors were using him for their own gains, wanting to mold him into a disposable soldier for their side of the conflict.
  
  It was at this time that Alphonse's bitterness nearly overtook him, feeling betrayed by both his Jedi mentor and Exile friend. Determined to hold himself to a higher standard than the two had tried to be but failed, he lured them both into an abandoned warehouse where they predictably fought each other. Neither noticed the gas that Alphonse had let into the room, the chemicals in it knocking the two out in the middle of their fight. Stealing what he could from the two, he killed them both for their transgressions against him and he continued on alone to find his place in the galaxy. It took most of what he had earned or stolen to get off the planet, making him start from scratch wherever he went, but deep down he relished the challenge and was curious about what opportunities that were waiting to be found off his home planet.

  Despite being so young, Alphonse is incredibly jaded by his upbringing and the betrayal of anyone who might have even come close to meaning something to him in his youth. He always assumes that the people he meets with have ulterior motives to their requests of him and is always on guard with a backup plan in case they try to betray him as well. He feels no problem with lying or killing others, feeling that the same could have happened to him at any time when he was younger and no one then was watching out for him to prevent such a fate. He especially relishes bringing chaos or stealing from those with privileged lives to, making them feel for at least a short while the same adversity that he had in his childhood.
  
  Despite being able to lie and disguise himself easily, Alphonse actually prefers to be as honest as he can be when not forced to be deceitful. This honesty isn't sugarcoated, though, which has aggravated others with the blunt truth. He holds himself to a high standard, determined to not dip as low as those that had used him in his past. He holds others to these same standards, though, which can make him come off as arrogant and condescending when others make even small mistakes or ask stupid questions. Usually he isn't malicious in his words, though, preferring that those he meets and works with try to always put their best forward instead of being apathetic or unwilling to better themselves.
  
  Due to the betrayals of his mentor and best friend, it is now hard for someone to get close emotionally to Alphonse as he guards his heart closely. He does crave someone to become close to, wanting to know what it feels like to have an unconditional relationship, but due to his skepticism of his fellow man it would take a lot to get through to him. He also realizes that he is only alive due to being saved by his Jedi mentor, something he tries to repay to others in poor fortune if they deserve his assistance. He doesn't help those that aren't giving their all to help themselves but to those he finds worthy he is willing to go quite far to give them a fair chance of making a better life for themselves.

  Combat: Having grown up in the slums, Alphonse had to learn to protect himself from an early age. Improvised weapons like shivs and broken bottles led to actual knives and stolen blasters when he could find them. While lacking a trained style, he instead knows exactly how his body works best with weapons and is able to move deftly with a number of them. He started to learn how to use Lightsaber forms from his Jedi mentor but never completed his training, having killed the man before he could do so. He now practices what he did learn and is starting to integrate the weapon into his repertoire of favorites. He does his best to keep his cool during a fight, observing both the enemy and surroundings for ways to give himself an advantage just as he does even when not fighting another.
  
  Underworld Skills: Living in the underworld of his home since he could reason, Alphonse has learned how to play a variety of games well enough to survive. He lies easily and convincingly while having become adept at picking both pockets and locks, knowing how to slice computers as well as breaking into physical locks. His specialty is poisons, though, having learned how to use a variety of chemicals to create gases or liquids that can do things from knock out others to mimic illnesses until the target has died. He rarely keeps the materials for said poisons on his person, though, so until he can work with them again all he knows are the formulae.
  
  Force: Having only trained a small amount, Alphonse does what he can with what he knows while still practicing to become better. He prefers the subtle effects like Mind Tricks and using Levitation on items to cause distractions or bring items to his hand when in a pinch. He can't move large objects like a desk or vehicle and when trying for an audacious request his mind tricks often fail. The Force is a curiosity for him, though, and he is eager to find how powerful he can become in it's use.
