Appearance: Alexandre looks like something straight out of royalty, yet with the style of a DJ. he is perpetually wearing a pair of head-sets (not headphones, head
as in, very big over the top music listening devices) that are colored black. He has strange purple hair combed over to the side like a little rich kid (under the hat that is). He often has a smile from underneath the round Ozzy looking shades that completely cover his eyes. His eye color, should you look, is a deep, deep blue. Most of the time he has a deep purple robe on with a regal design in white and blue. He wears a bright-white looking sea-captain uniform with a thin line of purple going up the seams, from the bottom of the matching white dress pants (which goes with the robe) and a captains hat (black and purple). All in all Alex looks like he's just stepped off a boat as a captain, except for the shades. They're just cool. And if it wasn't for the stuff he carries on his back he'd complete the look. On his back is a key-board/electric guitar. It has the strings of a guitar and a neck, but it also has a keyboard built into the side. So he also kinda looks like a forgotten beetle's member. He also has a crossbow strapped down on his back as well as a small quiver of arrows strapped to his waist.
Personality: Alex is extremely energetic. There is hardly ever a time when he is not walking or pacing around, especially if he has to wait as waiting is one thing Alex hates the most. As you can tell Alex has a short patience and is quick to anger. He doesn't mind people per say, but he does mind it when they are slow to do anything. He also is a bit of a narcissist and suffers a sort of superiority complex. As for class types Alex does not mind any one class at all, but he does dis-like (in the lightest sense) other bard's as he often will play louder in-order to drown out their "horrid excuses for music". Alex also understands how when two Bard's get together, who aren't playing the same song together, their music kind of screws each other up. Which is why he dislikes other Bards who can't play with him for whatever reason. Oh and he likes to snap his fingers at people a lot.
Background: Alex was born to a family of extremely rich and wealthy musicians/conductors. The family was a well-known name in the music world. They we're involved in almost all things music, whether it was owning factories related to instrument production or orchestral production. The family also had a private taste for harpsichord (which is where Alex gets his taste for those types of songs) in turn Alex also grew to like organ music. But as Alex grew up he also found that modern music ("TRUE modern music") we're full of rhythms, beats, and melodies that we almost heavenly, but sadly he also found that usually these songs we're ruined with "singing". And so Alex vowed to become a strict instrumentalist and never use his voice for "singing" as he thought that is a true musician cannot win people over with his music alone, and must resort to his voice, then he is truly lost. Not to say Alex does not use his voice when fighting. He talks, but he does not and will not sing. Alex takes far more pride in his skill as a musician then as a singer. But still. It seems Alex has inherited his families use for ALL things music and has been gifted with a sultry voice that can make the most prudish girl swoon. He doesn't mind it, but he doesn't like it either. He's lost count of the quire teachers who've asked him to join their group. Alex also, as a guilty pleasure, considers foreign music and exception to the "instrumental rule"
Type: Orchestral Bard ( as in one instrument that can play music as an an entire orchestra)
Trinkets: Alpheon- inorder for it to actually work Alex has need his "master-piece" to have some magic imbued into it. So Alex is a magical musician if you think about it. It was sound magic, done by a magician with some of the same quality Alex now has. Usually Bard's only have one instrument, but thanks to this device Alex can play music that an entire Orchestra, or synthesizer, can do. In fact, Alex considers Alpheon the world's best synth guitar/keyboard. Alpheon can also play some songs on it own without the need for Alex, these songs are called passive songs and all Alex has to do for the song to play from Alphe is to invoke the song (a que by "voice") Alphe also has a voice of his own, usually expressed via song. While Alex does not like it, Aphlhe has, on occasion, played a song with a voice in it (in some cases doing it so much Alex has grown to like it)
Crossbow - A large and heavy crossbow. Usually Alex only uses this when Alpheon is playing a passive song and does not require Alex's help to play it. In this instance, Alex will take out this weapon and attempt to shoot at the enemy from afar with it. It's about a meter in length, the arrow's it fires are large, but light, each is about 3/4's of a meter in length.
Alpheon- An electric guitar with a blade attached to the tuning head as well as a keyboard along the side of it. It can play a large, large amount of sounds whether from the key-board or the strings on the guitar. Alex has a preference for electronic and royal songs which would suite him as he does consider himself a modern DJ. The guitar also has a small one-line LED screen on it, this serves to announce the song that Alex has chosen and is now playing. Once as song has been selected it cannot be switched out with another song, so he can either pause, or wait five minutes. Here's a rough estimate of what Alpheon looks
Aci-L - A song for all things electronic. Anything that is mechanical in nature receives a boost from this song. (note: is not truly passive, requires guiding of melody via key-board)

Philosophy of a Knife (Passive) - Instills great fear and fatigue in enemies. Special bonus if enacted in the dark. No effect in the day-light sun. May cause horrific hallucinations.

ILLUSION+
ABILITY: CREATURE SUMMON OR ATTACK SONG
Ontology - Super-Bonus for Deamons and other hellish creatures. Also adds a small bonus to undead as well as black magicians and Necromancers. An inky blackness issues forth from Alpheon and envelops all who receive bonuses from it, this becomes the source of the power bonus.

BLACK = MAGIC++++
DEMON/UNDEAD - Small Attack, Stamina, Agility Bonus
DVNO - A COOL SONG. FOR COOL PEOPLE. As the song says: "No need to ask my name to figure out how cool I am. Provides a bonus for all males on the lighter side of the scale. Can, in some cases, put enemies in awe, making it harder to concentrate. Especially effective against those of the opposite sex: which is both good and bad. (well bad and bad). Bad for the female enemies, and bad for the female allies (as they get distracted by the dazzling males) Only effects light characters or characters who are not involved in any the dark arcane.
ATTACK+
DEFENSE+
COOLNESS+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
ABILITY: SUDDEN AWE

AGILITY++++++
SPEED++++++
ABILITY: IMPOSSIBLE DODGE (Performs dodges that, under normal circumstances, would be impossible to perform)
Stress - As the song implies causes enemies to worry. Causes a strange unease in enemies and makes their over-all fighting quality weaker.
ABILITY: Weaken for all enemies. Bonus Nervousness. Attack and Defense down.
*EXCEPTION* He actually sings this one!
Scream - This is every Dark Arcane males song. Alex actually sings this one (as he considers himself apart of the "darkside") and so the bonuses are slightly higher then the light version. The song hints at rape if you didn't know (but don't judge it without giving it a listen!) Also effects female characters, whether good or bad (or light or dark)

DEFENSE++

DEFENSE+

The more people playing the more swords that will appear.
ABILITY: SUMMON SWORD (NUMBER)

ATTACK+++
AIM++
MAGIC ARROW+++
LIGHTARROW+
DARKARROW+

Enka 1 (Passive*) - Alex must actually dance with this song for the effect to take hold, but it mainly deals in all things speed as well as a reflect block. And while he cannot attack while performing this song, he can dodge, extremely well, and in some cases, he uses his new speed to distract the enemy. Even while dancing.
SPEED++
REFLECT++++
AGILITY+
DEXTERITY+
SMALL POSSIBILITY: RANDOM TELEPORT
Attack of the 60ft Lesbian Octopus - Disregarding the long winded title this song is one of Alex's attack songs. It is slightly short, but it delivers a hefty amount of hits in (in quick succession) to one target. The "invisible" punches come in with the beat, they are usually represented by two glowing orbs as Alex plays this song the orbs will home in the target and proceed to hit the target.
ATTACK SONG
The Snow Queen - A song of the Ice element. Causes the environment to get much, much cooler and protects allies against ice-based attacks.
ICE DEFENSE++
ENVIRONMENT+
Human After All - Alex a duet by both musician and instrument. Alpheon sings the lyrics while Alex plays the rest of the song. The entire song is spent charging up for the ending. As the pair get closer to the songs end the guitar will glow brighter and bright, until the final "After All" after which an extremely large ball of energy will issue forth from the actual guitar itself. Very, very long charge time. But if he can play it the entire way the damage output is outrageous.
ATTACK SKILL+++++++++++++++++
CHARGE TIME++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
SPECIAL ANTI-CLASS SONGS(Most all of these are passive as they would need Alex to attack while the song is being played)
ANTI-MAGIC
X amount of Words - A Passive song sung by Alpheon. It takes the words of spells needed by all magic users and priests, and limits them. As in a sentence may have no more then 3 to 8 words depending on the strength of the magic, pretty much rendering the magic nae uncastable. Spells can still be "thought" into casting but are usually harder to perform. Is a curse that also renders uncurse magic so severely "limited" that only the first syllable can be spoken. The first syllable can weaken it, but only as one would chipping away at a rock. Basically Alpheon's equivalent of silence.
ANTI-FIGHTER
You Just Fell for the Trap Initiates automatic counters specifically against physical close-to-close fighting. Only allows for auto counter for as long as the song plays which is only about 3 minutes.
ANTI-BARD
The Alibi An extremely simple song. So simple, and old, in fact, that is disrupts other Bard's songs. Something about the vibrations emmited by Alpheon that cancel out other Bard's instruments.
LUIMATTE BREAK
an advanced song of Alex's. it comes in 4 levels with 4 being the strongest and the most dangerous. An extremely powerful black magic spell that fuses both Alpheon and Alex into one being: Luimatte. Alex hardly uses Luimatte, but usually only goes up to level 1, hardly ever 2, a hasn't done three much, has never even touched 4.
Luimatte One The first transformation of Alpheon and Alex. As the music begins to play both fuse together. Alex grows a foot taller then he usually is, as well as his robe and cloths. Each turns a deep blood red. Long sharp blades just out on Luimatte, each looking strangely like the blade on Alpheon in his guitar form. Luimatter looks like a Demon commander of some sort, with tree trunk arms. His eyes glow a bright red, even from behind the shades. His canines elongate to about 2 inches, and his other teeth develop points. The insignia on his hat is replaced by a skull and bones. As it would appear Alex, or Luimatte, is now a Demon complete with demonic strength and demonic stamina, as well as demonis agility. Alex cannot speak or understand anyone in this form, as he is no longer Alex, but is one of Alpheon's apearences. Just what is Alpheon anyway? A dark secret for no one but Alex to know, but it is rumored that Alex's family deals in some heavy deep demonic magic of some sort, even experimenting on their family members. Every family has its secrets.
Luimatte Two - Alex is further transformed. Now he looks much like a tall gentlemen. His cloths are nice black, with a top hat, long coat, and dress shoes Alex looks like a Victorian gentleman. His face still looks quite demonic, and his shades are still present. Although Now Alex holds a rather ugly looking sword. A grotesque thing with meat all over the blade, some parts even pulsate still. A lone Demonic eye is placed in the blades hilt.
Luimatter Three - Alex is transformed further still. Another foot of height is tacked on and now Alex looks like Frankentypish type of brute. Like a zombie in living flesh Alex's face is a sickly pallor with his mouth half open and an eye falling out of its socket. Luimatte hangs his body as if it weighs a ton. In this form Alex can raise the dead, but only the dead of the area around him. If the surrounding area has no dead, none get summoned, and he will instead force the negative energies of the area to be summoned, which will effect the enemy negatively (of course) in this form Luimatter has a swath of huge zombie stamina, and will not go down unless oblitereated.
Luimatter FOUR - Alpheon's true form. As Alex is not Alex at this point, nor is he Luimatter. At this point it is Alpheon standing there. He would look like an angel in this form. He wears a completely pearl white business suit that seems to glow in the light, he is also the same height and build of an adult. He carries a guitar with him, that looks nothing like the guitar Alex uses. When in this form Alpheon will play this song, which gives the enemy every sort of negative effect imaginable. If left long enough Alpheon will KILL the enemy with the culmination of said status effects. It is not only a physical barrage but mental as well. The guitar he uses is in the shape of a cross, speaking of crosses, Alpheon also has a single black cross on the tie he uses in this form. In this form all Alpheon does is play his guitar. He does nothing else, not even dodge attacks, for this unspeakable song must be played without any pauses. There is a slight chance that when this is performed Alex won't come back and Alpheon will be free to roam the Earth once again. various spells and incantations keep Alpheon from doing anything else but play when in this form. But with Alpheon being so powerfull at that point there's a chance it could fail, and that would be bad VERY BAD.
