Name: Alex Solguard
Pronouns: He/him
Age: No spoilers
Height: 5'11, probably
Eye Color:Hazel
Hair Color: Black with gold tips, just like his ears -- apparently remnants from a past life.

Dreams: A new home and a clinic for listening/mental health sessions (for IC & OOC)
Proficiencies: Conversation, Hand-to-Hand Combat (Defensively), Brewing Tea

Occupation: Host, Listener, Former Guard
Likes: Tea, Stories, Being with company
Dislikes: Rushing to Anywhere, Crumbly Food, Center of Attention

Personality: Kind, gentle, compassionate, these are all things Alex wish to champion forward as in Alex's background, he has seen far too much brutality and savagery in his personal and professional life. He wants to return the kindness to everyone he meets as he has received much warmth in his life.

Background: Part of the many branches of the Sol family, Alex was a guard. Protecting was the job, the duty, and Alex did that and more. He found himself protecting a family, and happily did more for them: listening, dancing, celebrating, small, but important things. When life seemed to be just right, that's when the incident happened.

Welcome to my Hooks!

Gentleman, Butler, & Host: We can chat on all things chivalry, acts of service, and what that can look like.Tea: What kind of tea do you think, how should you brew it, how should you serve a cup of tea? These are thoughts Alex debates on occasion. And of course, always open to talk about any tea brewing.Small Talk: Alex actually enjoys small talk, it helps remind Alex of a simpler, smaller time.Sol Family: If you were a part of the many branches of the Sol family, we have much and little to talk about the family, as instructed.Former Guard: Military training was nothing new compared to the family training. Defense is always at the core; de-escalation is a well worn tool for Alex. Protection of all things are in each step and action Alex takes.Mental Health: As the esteemed WoL(s) go on a multitude of adventures, there are many who get affected by their impact, positive, negative, and everything in between. Alex would like to chat if you were one of those affected people or know someone who has been affected.

Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to read about me, OOC. I hope I can satisfy your curiosity, or at the very least, leave you wanting more.

Big crier of movies, huge whiner when sick, and a lucky person who absolutely adores my partner.
I am an aspiring writer, a person who is terribly addicted to volleyball, I love clips of bears doing human things (you HAVE to see the bear scratching his back against a fence and regrets it shortly after).
Experience:
Broadly speaking, here's my personal academic & work experience: I've worked with youth and children of all ages, especially around grade school. From there, specialized work with kiddos on the spectrum while volunteering for a suicide crisis line, all for a couple of years. Finally now doing some nonprofit work!
