Alexandria Mortame

''"Why are you looking at me like I have some big speech for you. You want a big brilliant talk with lots of big words go bug my Father." -Alexandria at her first assembly''

Alexandria, or as she prefers to be called, Alex. Is one of many Protagonists in the Spirit of Order Universe. She is the daughter of one of the higher ups in the group, and is the current Headmistress of the Mortame Institute, a School founded to prepare the next generation of Heroes. She is unable to use magic like her father, Crisendorf. However she makes up for this with an extensive knowledge of Hand to Hand Combat, knowing over 127 Fighting Styles, as well as creating a variation of her own which closely resembles Kick Boxing. She Received a blessing from Solis, the Falnoiren God of the Sun when she was little, when he witnessed her potential to become a strong fighter. This Blessing Gave her emotions strength. Most noticeably Anger, causing her hands, and to a lesser extent, her weaponry, to catch fire.

She first appeared to the Order once her Father's secret was out. That he had been lying about his true age and appearance in order to help the group of young heroes. Once this came to light Alex relocated to Detroit with her Father and her Uncle where she showed an immediate dislike for many of the Order's members. Over time however they came to grow on her and even become extended family. She would lay her life down for any one of them.

Background
Alexandria was born to the Noble Family Mortame to her father, Crisendorf Mortame, and to her Mother, Seros Ress{Deceased}, in the Green Hills of Bellor, on First Light 12, 10171. Changed to a human system however, March 12, 1965. At a very early age she showed the immediate tell tale signs of Gerlakh Syndrome. A Falnoiren Birth Defect that leaves those affected by it unable to perform Magic of any kind. She also showed the adventurous traits apparent in all Mortame's, often found wandering the Hedge Maze on the Family Estate with a wooden sword, in her words, "To save the damsel in distress." which was more often than not, the family butler Hobson. Forced to wear a dress by the young Hero. Her adventures in the maze were cut short however when she found a loose spot in the ground, and fell into a cave filled to the brim with insects and arachnids, which proceeded to crawl all over the little girl that fell into their home for three hours before her father had been able to find her. She received her Elementary-High school Education from the Mixed efforts of her father and Hobson, as the Birth Defect made most of Falnoire's schooling mute. She finished her schooling at the early age of 15 and went on to Demon Hunting at 16. She later undertook Guardian Training under her Grandfather, Casterberous, and left for Earth to join up with her father.

Alex showed an initial distaste for Humankind. She cared little for how a wide majority of them acted as though the world owed them everything with as little work as possible put forward. Over time however she met many that helped her get passed this. She fell in line with many as a Punk Rocker after a few years, however her stay with that social group ended abruptly, though she did keep the look and general bad attitude.

She is well known for cutting down Demons or even ripping them apart with her bare hands. Demon-kind often hiss at her presence. She shows little mercy to their kind, and though she seems it, she is never reckless when dealing with them. She has been shown to be down right cruel to them with little reason other than "They Deserve it". All of this is due to the death of the first person she ever loved, a Fellow Hunter by the name of Serana Blake, who was tortured and murdered in front of an 18 year old Alexandria by a Knight of Hell. She later buried Serana herself, after ripping the Knight apart with her bare hands.

Personality
Alex has been shown to maintain a somewhat calm air about her, the calm before the storm in most cases. She is always quick to anger, and has never quite gotten control of her temper. She is often reckless in fights unrelated to Demons, and even becomes snarky and overly Sarcastic in many instances when she actually feels fear during such fights. a Bad habit she picked up from her Father. However she is also very Maternal, and will often throw herself into harms way to protect children. She openly admits to being somewhat dim, and that she would rather beat an obstacle with her fists than sit in a room studying and planning how to deal with an issue.

Its also to be noted that she has poor manners, an example of such would be her disregard for the rules and etiquette of formal dinner occasions. While all are eating in a polite manner, using the correct utensil, she is using her bowl as though it were a cup.

Appearance
Alex usually wears clothing that is both flattering, and highly functional, preferring dusters, tank tops, jeans, and work boots to skirts and formal wear, she also has two piercings in her lip, and multiples in her right ear, and in one of the feline ears atop her head, as well as a series of silver rings she wears around her tail. Her feline appearance of course having been passed to her from her mother. She often crops her hair short, taking a combat knife to it when it gets too long, or tossing it in a ponytail when she can't find time to cut it. Her eyes change colors regularly between Silver, violet, and amber, her skin is pale, and she certainly appears as though she spends a great deal of time in the gym. Usually apparent in her use of tank tops.She also has tattoos on her knickles saying "Love", and "Hate". She's been called "Beautiful and Dangerous" by many, many demons.

Abilities

 * Superhuman Strength- She has been shown to be extraordinarily strong, many believe her strength is                                         above superhuman limits.
 * Extreme Durability- She is capable of taking a massive amount of punishment before she must retreat,                                   as demonstrated when she was lifted into the air by an arch-demon, and all four of                                    limbs were pulled on as though he was attempting to tear her apart, and was unable                                to accomplish this goal.
 * Superhuman Stamina- She is able to fight for extremely long periods of time without tiring, however this                                       has its limits. When she is using the Blessing of Solis she is shown to exaust                                              herself much faster than without it.
 * Blessing of Solis- The Blessing she received as a child allows her to conjure up Fire to aid her in combat,                            often linked to her anger, the angrier she gets, the brighter and more volatile the flame.                             While using this ability however she tires out faster, and has even passed out from                                     using it for too long.
 * Regeneration- Her Falnoiren anatomy allows her to heal almost 15 times faster than humans do, its been                        seen that she can recover from having bones broken in a matter of minutes after setting                           the bone.

Crisendorf Mortame
Alex and Crisendorf are extremely close. So much so that at his death in Chapter 10 she had a mental break down at the concept of never seeing him again. Having grown up without her mother, who had died during Child Birth, she only ever had her Father. The two share a close bond, and Alex often worries about his opinion of her, as she feels the need to impress him on a regular Basis. She also struggles to live up to his reputation as the Previous Headmaster of the Institute, throwing herself rather deeply into paper work and entire lesson plans to try and amount to the same presence of leadership he did. With mixed results. Her favorite possession is a gift she received when she was little, a small bear keychain given to her by her father, that she wears on her belt to this day.

Kaindriel Mortame
Alex and her uncle share a friendly relationship, in which they make snarky remarks at each others expense. Kain forges Alex's more intricate pieces of equipment, and cares a great deal for her safety. As she does for him. As he is known for barreling head first into confrontation and getting himself hurt, she usually asks him to stay back at the lab as he is getting on in years. She can sometimes be found in the lab strumming a guitar while he plays the harmonica.

Mizuki Tatsamura
Alex views Mizuki as a rival, and competes regularly with her in various ways. She still hasn't quite accepted Mizuki as her step-mother, and more than likely never will. Though they do seem to be somewhat friendly, if a little strained, when Crisendorf is around. Alex usually steals her cheez-its and blames Baltomere or Shizumi for such.

Wisteria, Casterberous, and Natalia
Alex's children, she is fiercely protective of all three, and is well known for tearing apart whole city blocks simply smashing any who threaten them. She had once been seen stomping on the head of a demon that tried to take Natalia, or Nat as she is usually referred to, with the baby in her arms. Singing a Lullaby the entire time.

Junichi and Shizumi
The three have a serious competition going for the affection of their father, Alex being the Eldest, feels that she has been somewhat forgotten after Junichi and Shizumi's birth, and even more so when Crisendorf spoils Shizumi and trains with Junichi. She seems unable to realize that there is room in the family for all three of them.

Julian "Taboo" Sky
Julian and Alex have an easy going friendship, a mutual understanding of each other's abilities. Alex respects Julians incredible skill in swordsmanship, as he does her near impossible physical strength. Both know better than to anger the other. She sees Julian as another Uncle, and part of the family.

Percy "Limbo" Dark
Alex has a deep respect for Limbo, and often seeks his opinion as her Father does. She will remove herself from conflict if he says the fight is not worth the trouble, even if she goes to her office and stews in her anger for a couple hours afterwards. She looks at Percy as another Uncle, and part of the family.

Airica Falagoth
Alex and Airica have many, many things in common, and will occasionally go on adventures together when they are both feeling antsy and extremely bored. Alex can sometimes be found chatting with Airica when the School is quiet, as she often seeks various ways to shirk her paper work. Opting instead to help out where she can in the Infirmary, or even aid in the grading of papers all the while grading her own. Alex views Airica as less an Auntie, and more like a sister. She asks Airica for advice often, as she is too embarrassed to ask her father for Help running the school.

Tommy Richards
She hates him. Plain and simple. Having at one point loaded the man into a cannon and fired him so he'll leave her be.

O'lias Sage
Alex has been shown to respect Izanagi, and that is hard to earn. She Asks him for advice when she can, as she doesn't see him very often. She respects his leader ship qualities, as well as his power. And as compared to other members of the Order, never argues with his decisions. She shows more maturity around Izzy than around most. The exception being her Father. She calls Izanagi her Uncle, and considers him family.

Baltomere Domin
Baltomere and Alex share a similar relationship as Crisendorf and Balto do, they make playful jabs at each other, spar occasionally, and make fun of each other almost constantly. Alex having gone so far as to get him a rhinestone collar and a doggy bowl to make fun of his lycanthropy. She considers Baltomere extended family.
