Name: Alexander Cloudsurfer
Nicknames: Alex
Gender: Male
Age: 57
Apparent Age: 18
Race: Half Dragonlord, Half Merman
DragonLord Sub-race: Silver
Magic Type: Air
Class: Sorcerer
Height: 6’4
Weight: 150 lbs
Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Physical Appearance:
Tall and handsome, Alex is a person to behold with awe and admiration. He wears his dark brown, almost black hair in casual Mermen dreads, a thing that’s not unusual with the waterloving race. His eyes, a deep blue hue, look a lot like the ocean and if a person were to look at them they would be able to see the reflection in Alexander’s eyes. Like all Mermen, this half Merman has gills, as well as pointy ears and webbed fingers and toes. Due to both his DragonLord and Merman heritage Alexander has powerful muscles, allowing for smooth movement through the water and on land.
Further more the sailor prefers to wear clothes that are comfortable, light and allow his body to ‘breathe’. Usually this results in the young chap wearing casual black leather pants covered in metal tribals, and a matching belt to harness his trident. Other than this, he wears a leather sash ornamented with the same metal tribals as the pants and belt. The sash has many pockets in it, allowing Alex to put random items in them – Or if necessary, a set of small knives for whenever he’s at sea.

[i]Personality:
Generally calm and helpful, Alex is not one to disturb the natural balance of Order. He thinks he’s well-aware of the laws formed by society, and he will only break them when in an impossible situation. He however is one to walk the border, carefully moving around the edges while using his rights to his full extend. With a good sense of humour, he tends to be more sarcastic than serious – Which at times can be a bad thing.
With a lack of concentration, Alex can easily be distracted from something. If a person appears to be boring, he won’t hesitate to test them and see if his first impression was in fact right or wrong. Acting like he’s got a lot of self-confidence, there is actually a little child within him that still wants to get back the attention he once used to have at sea.
Spells:
Zephyr-
Moving in the wind’s rhythm, Alex summons up a steady gust of wind in a certain direction. Particularly useful while being stuck at sea, when there’s no wind at all. This spell can also be used to move small objects, or to slow down larger objects that are coming in the caster’s direction. (1)
WindStill-
Lowering the wind speeds up to the point where there is no movement at all, the caster manages to prevent sound from travelling through the air. This spell also works in reverse allowing sound to travel faster than usual, increasing the hearing rate exponentially. (1)
Thundershock-
Increasing the electricity within his own body, Alexander carefully aims his fingers at the target and releases the electricity, causing minor damage to the victim. At the point where the electrical energy enters the target a first degree burn wound might appear, depending on the victim's resistance to air magic. Likewise, a burn wound might appear at the place where the energy leaves the body again. (1) Can be used at a maximum of 3 times a day
Weapons:
Haltimeran Trident-
A standard weapon used by mermen society. This simplistic weapon is commonly used to ward off other types of blades, but it can also be used for stabbing motions as well as slamming into objects. The weapon itself looks like nothing more than a pole with a fork-based ‘blade’ attached to it. The three-pronged piece of weaponry shines in a golden hue and is encrypted with words that lighten up in a bright red when the evening sets in.
Racial Abilities:
Dual Breath- Since Alex is half Merman, he has gills on either side of his neck. This means that he is able to live not only on the surface, but also breathe comfortably under any sort of water, as long as it contains enough oxygen.
DragonLord Regeneration (1)- All DragonLords can regenerate and as they get older this regeneration becomes faster and more efficient. However they cannot heal wounds caused by the claws of other Dragons or DragonLords. Alex can heal minor wounds (shallow cuts and bruises) within a day and mediocre ones (broken fingers, dislocated limbs, minor fractures and deep cuts to none vital areas) within a few weeks rather than months. Complete limbs may be generated too, though this process could easily take a century, if not more.
DragonLord Biomorph (1)- Like most DragonLords of a certain age, Alex has begun to show signs of the ability to Biomorph. At the moment this is showing itself in the ability to change his skin to scales, specifically the sparkling silver scales of a Silver Dragon.
History:
A Mermaid’s Lovebearing Storm
Practically born as a part of the sea, Alexander’s mother gave birth to him aboard the St. Isabella, a transport ship that carried goods from Vorn to Grath. Sometimes it would take almost a year to move between the two, but with the help of Rex and Cordelia it wasn’t as impossible as it would appear to be. The young merman being trained in the art of Water magic, the DragonLady known for her powers to control the winds. Together they kept the ship going for many a year, but eventually the end came from not the sea, nor the sky.
At the age of 35 Alex was left behind in Vorn city, along with his mother. The still youthful parents had been running low on funds, and in no way could they keep up with this constant moving between Vorn and Grath. Travel by Jumpgate had become more popular and cheaper, causing many sailors to lose their jobs and move to the midlands – Cordelia included. Rex however was stubborn, and didn’t want to give up on his dreams yet. He chose for the sea, abandoning his wife and child with the thought of returning once he had found a new way to get by with their funds. But he never returned…
In the meantime, Alex had been taking visits to the Mage School. Attending classes with the Guardians, who taught him all about Air magic. It was the same kind of magic his mother was capable of casting, and thus she helped him wherever possible. Due to this Alexander soon became one of the better students at the school and soon he graduated. At the mere age of 40 he had reached all his goals in life, but for one – He wanted to see his father again.
It didn’t take the sorcerer long before he realized that such a task would be almost entirely impossible, leaving him with few alternatives. He chose one of the lesser obvious ones. Alex would try to become a powerful and well-known sailor, wielding Air magic in an attempt to catch his father’s interest. Even though so far the Half Dragonlord and Half Merman had but few spells at his disposal.
