Biography: Alex started off as a farm hand back in his youth. He loved tending plants and always did his best for them. After growing and realizing he required a real job he decided to apply to Nanotrasen to work as a botanist. Being that they were commonly on short supply or didn't always have any to supply the chef with food [spoiler2](take your pick)[/spoiler2] they jumped at the chance to have someone who was dedicated to the job.

Alex studies to be as best a botanist as he can, already excelled at multitasking a full garden and even going so far as to expand the growing space. He does not yet understand the machines that are used to make strange hybrid plants but hopes to one day learn.

Alex has taken a liking to the diona species that he found seeds for. They are always one of the first seeds he plants. Sometimes he is the sole botanist on the station for a while so they give him company and are also great assistants for tending to the plants. [spoiler2](when they stay that is)[/spoiler2] He's not afraid of bees unlike many others and is happy to share the same room with them.

Other Notes: As of recently (literally the game I just finished playing) he is FUCKING TERRIFIED OF THE AI. It went rouge and proceeded to make him feel the sweet, cold embrace of DEATH ITSELF. The AI had four attempts on his life and succeeded twice at it. The first attempt he sent a Medical borg to kamikaze him in Hydroponic and the second time the AI tried to DEPRESSURIZE Hydroponics. After that, almost every single door, (LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE DOOR) he tried opening resulted in his hand requiring burn heals. Finally the AI succeeded in killing him after he crept into the kitchen for food as Hydroponics was still recovering and then the kitchen was then depressurized while the chef and another outside watched Alex slowly die.

After being cloned the AI then proceeded to depressurize the cloning room. Thankfully the medics there were more than competent and managed to get him out alive with most of his gear. After escaping from that METAL DEATH TRAP on the shuttle he snuck into the shuttle bridge in hopes of it being safer than with the crew [spoiler2]because they were all crazy super-powered monsters turning everything into rainbows[/spoiler2] and was murdered by an engineer borg. Right before landing at CentCom. He was resurrected, for sure, but he has the undying memory of when the AI made him submit to death twice. He is now permanently afraid of any machine intelligence and will go into a crazy fit until the offending electronic is gone. He is not COMPLETELY the same way with IPCs understanding they are more like humans than machines in a sense, but he's still... careful around them...

 

 

OOC: I LOVED THAT ROUND. Sure it was a pain trying to survive and complain to whoever would listen that the AI was out to get me (NO ONE LISTENED) and then that slow death was horrible. The sucker punch at the end was a dick move though but it added well to his character development. Kudos to you all! I finally have a real character!
