POWERS & ABILITIES:
Because of his mother's 'tainted blood' Alexander was born with a higher physical tolerance. Meaning that he is slightly stronger than the normal human. Not enough to be bullet proof or anything, but it does make it a lot harder to beat the shit out of him. Not that it doesn't hurt him if someone tried.
He also developed a sort of sixth sense that lets him feel the auras of the things around him. Most of the time he needs extreme focus to be able to sense things, unless it has a strong enough energy that some higher creatures give off.

HISTORY:
Alexander Eric Summerland was born to his mother Shiloh Summerland, who despite her job as a Hunter managed to raise him into a happy and energetic kid. For most of his childhood he had been happy with traveling from town to town with his mother, she usually left him with someone she trusted when she went to go Hunt. But she did her best to try and not take to many jobs, but with the rise of Chaos it was quite hard to manage that. It wasn't till he was a bit older that she confided in him that there was a whole other side to the world that not many people knew about. From there she started teaching her son the skills he would need to be able to protect himself in the world out there.
Alex took to the Hunter's lifestyle pretty easily which was expected as both his parents were both Hunters. Though Alex never knew his father, as he had been out of his life even before he was born. So he knew next to nothing about the man that had helped bring him into this world. Which at first didn't bother him, but as he got older he noticed how being a Hunter took its toll on a person. He saw the way the worry about the safety of you and the people close to you was like a weight on his mother. Slowly he became more and more bitter towards his father until he down right hated him for leaving his mother to fend for herself and him.
So in order to make life easier for him mom Alex decided to take up hunting on his own to not only gain experience under his belt but also hone his skills more. His hopes are to return back 'home' once he feels he's become a better Hunter and prove that Shiloh doesn't have to worry so much for him as he can take care of his own. Once he hit eighteen he set out and started on his goal. His first few solo Hunts didn't run as smoothly as he hoped and nearly got him locked away in prison. But he managed to get away and learned not to not draw attention to himself.
Oddly enough when he had agreed to work with a fellow Hunter or two a few rarely times they had mentioned how he reminded them on a man they had met once, as he looked a bit like ho he did around his age. Alex knew for certain that the man the two different hunters had mentioned had to be his father, intrigued by the idea of finally meeting his dad he follows whatever leads he can find while working jobs. Hoping to maybe come across the man who never once tried to visit him or his mom.
Thankfully in this time and day there seems to be an abundant source for Hunting jobs, and hopefully Alex will finally get the answers he's been looking for...
