Personality: Alexandros is a kind hearted klutz of a guy, he's more willing to befriend you then he is to fight you. He grew up as teh odd ball in his family. His father was a shop keeper and his mother worked alongside him. His younger brother took up being a priest and his older sister became a surgeon, thereby making her the only one of the family that as truly gone up the proverbial ladder. Alexandros, or Alex, is the only one who took up a role as a scholar. He's also been seen as rather strange due to the fact that he has actually tried many of the things he read about in the books. For example he is proficient in many forms of warfare dating back to the Punic Wars..... But not so much when it comes to modern conflict. He also has a habit to get excited when talking about anything historical, which is why he felt at home teaching while he was in that line of work. He is very loyal to those he considers a friend and will do his best to help them. Even if it gets him in trouble from time to time. He can be skeptical when faced with something that is new to him, but he's willing to admit he was wrong when proven. He also can be incredibly cautious as well. He has the ability to be a leader, as evidenced by the roles he will sometimes take at historical re-enactments, but doesn't actively seek out opportunities to do this.
And I must follow on the road that lies ahead,
I won't let my heart control my head,

History: Alexandros was born in Rhodes, Greece and spent much of his early life there, he was the second of three children and had always been alitte awkward in social situations. He was also something of a late bloomer when it came to finding his passion. Very early on his sister gained a burning desire to work in the medical field. Then she knew she wanted to be a surgeon. His brother became the black sheep in the family but eventually found faith and became a priest. Alex on the other hand went to school in a haze of not knowing what he wanted to be, or what he wanted to do. This went on for the first few years of his life. When he was 14 years old he was helping his parents in their shop when a man entered, he both frightened and intrigued the little boy. He taught a history class in a university over seas. Alex never heard where, but hearing what the man said about what had happened in Ancient Greece awakened something in Alex, he then began to take regular trips to the ruins nearby, and eventually got a chance to go to the Parthenon.
When he reached 18 years of age and was ready to attend a place of higher learning, he chose to go to Durham University in the U.K. This is where he truly started to shine, he passed all his classes with flying colors...... Well.... All his history classes that is. Science and Mathematics not so much, but the point is he graduated from the University.
While he was going to Durham he wondered what ever had happened to the man that lit the spark in him that led to this point in his life. He had heard rumours of a professor that matched his memories of that man, but it was at the University of Texas, he decided it was worth going to look and enrolled for one semester.... and found himself in a class taught by the very same man.
After this point in his life he took up teaching. He quickly gained a reputation for being truly passionate about what he did, as well as talking about little known events and individuals. He loved explaining the events and dates to the class and would always be willing to listen to others viewpoints. He also gained a reputation for correcting others when they got something historically based wrong. After about five years of this he was paid to go to dig sites across the world, mostly in his homeland of Greece and help them identify what they found, mostly by helping them put pieces of pottery together.
He also took up going to historical reenactments as often as it could which lead to him learning combat tactics that were cutting edge in 1782 or 100 BC. But horribly out of date for today's day and age. It is also worth mentioning that due to the time he spent in England he speaks with a British accent when speaking English. Over time he became well known (or world renowned depending on who you ask(Alex doesn't think so)) for his near photographic memory with regards to historical facts and identifying ancient cultures from around the globe. Sometimes even being able to tell which culture was being described without even seeing a photo,
