Name: Alexander Van Rotte
Nicknames: Xan, Xander, Lex, Alex
Gender:Male
Age: 16
Faction: Undead
Race: Zombie
Personality: Not your usual zombie? Alexander loves to read and learn. He spends countless hours poring over books, absorbing every last bit of knowledge his undead brain can handle. It's not like he has anything better to do when other ghouls and boils are asleep, right? This means that he'll probably be spending a lot of his time in the library at night, curled up in some dark corner with a stack of books beside him.
Of course, the result of all of this is that Alexander is not your stereotypical dumb zombie. He's actually -gasp- quite smart!
He isn't one to flaunt this fact, however. While he hates the fact that people automatically think that all zombies are lacking in the intellectual department, his love for being able to use other's poor misjudgment to his own advantages outweighs the dislike. This doesn't mean he's going to put on a huge facade and pretend to be slow-witted, but he also won't begin spouting formula's or reciting quotes from famous texts. He likes to play things low key, so he's going for just being average.
Ok, maybe not that unusual. What Xander makes up for in intelligence, he loses in physical speed. Always slow moving, he tends to slouch and shuffle along at a painfully slothful pace. This often makes him late for events and functions, as he really doesn't manage his time very well,or give himself ample room in his schedule for traveling. This isn't to say that Xander couldn't move faster if he wanted to. He could probably manage to turn it up a notch and walk at least at an
average walking pace.
This unfortunate physical aspect also rubs off on his personality quite a bit. For the most part he is very laid back and easy going (except when he's decided to be stubborn about something, but theres more about that below). On the flip side he despises any strenuous physical activity beyond eating (he loves to eat). He's also quite lazy and a bit of a slob when it comes to tidiness and personal hygiene. His room at home is a gigantic mess, and he hates to change or clean his clothes, which means he will spend many days wearing the same things, as they just continue to get dirtier and more smelly. He tries to offset this imbalance by changing his tyes on an -almost- daily basis, but he does have his favorites, and they will be worn more often then the others.
This will probably not change with his enrollment at Amityville and his dorm will likely become in much the same shape as his room at home.
Where's my horde? Being from a large family of zombies, Xander instinctively feels a strong urge to be within a sizable group, and will likely try very hard to make as many friends as possible as soon as he gets to the Academy. It's like his baby blanket. He needs the comfort of being surrounded by others. They don't even necessarily have to be other zombies. Anybody will do.
Stubborn as an undead muleEverybody knows that when it comes to resilience and perseverance, zombies reign supreme. Well, in Alexanders case, that boils down to him sometimes being very stubborn. Incredibly, unabashedly stubborn. If he want's something, like really really wants it, he will stop at nothing to get it. If he really believes he is absolutely right about something, then nobody can tell him he's wrong. Sometimes this is a good quality, but most of the time it's just irritating and can cause problems.
Why are they enrolled in Amityville Academy? He craves knowledge almost as much as he craves brains...
What better place to gain this knowledge then at Amityville Academy?
