Description

Alexander Vincent is a short (5'5"), lithe young man with shoulder length blonde hair and deep green eyes, even dormed down he has pale, nearly perfect skin. Normally he wears either his UNSC uniform or a tight t-shirt with a nerdy text on it and tight jeans.

Personality wise he is somewhat retiring and likes to spend considerable amounts of time either working or playing computer games. Aside from that he likes sitting in the ship bar playing coy and waiting for someone to pick him up. That said he not only has a strong work-ethic, but feels that his abilities obligate him to help others where he can. To that end he also feels obliged not to be an asshole to people, just because he's more capable in various ways.

Background Story

Alexander Vincent was born in 1998 in Hicksville Nebraska, where his short stature and nerdish way made him a target of bullies and his father's derision. Things didn't get much better when he realised that he was a bisexual, though he tried his best to deny this while he lived at home. The day that he turned 18 he left for California.

After gaining a scholarship to UC Berkeley he began studying electrical engineering, but he always felt things weren't going so well. During one particularly strenuous period he began experiencing massively powerful headaches, until suddenly he found that the seemingly impossible assignments he'd struggled with for so long were now very simple. Of course when he also solved a certain very difficult technical issue it soon became clear that he'd erupted.

Naturally the engineering companies were lining up to sign him on, but he wound up working for NASA helping design the next generation of spacecraft. In his spare time he was also busy designing cheap computers and programs for use in poor countries. Thus combining his desire to help mankind into space, with his desire to help them right here on the ground. It was this desire that got him involved with the United Nations and eventually the United Nations Space Command.

As a part of the design staff for ISV Unity Alexander was very helpful in pointing out weaknesses, but also in doing quick on the spot repairs of the prototypes. It therefore seemed like a good idea to include him on the crew, and indeed he was quite excited about the idea. Overall he did a good job of trying to fit in with the rest of the crew, striking a particularly good tone with the Captain.
