HAIR; Alexandre's hair is a natural shade of rich ebony, and he's proud enough that he takes extreme care of it. It's always got a lustrous sheen to it, and he always makes sure that it's in place. On occasion, he'll go out on a limb and dye streaks into his bangs, but he's sure to be careful about the damages. It's perhaps a little longer than the traditional cut that most guys seem to have, but not by much. It's longer in the front, where he sweeps it to the side to cover his right eye.
EYES; Alexandre inherited his eye color from his father's side of the family, they're the traditional Blackthorn gray, not too dark and not too light. They'll never show much emotion, because he tends to keep petty feelings to himself, as a pose to letting them show through.

PERSONALITY;
Alexandre has a very proud, blunt personality. He knows who he is and what he stands for, and he isn't afraid to let everyone else know the same. He's also very stubborn, and once Alex has his mind set on getting something, he won't stop until he does. That said, he also takes even the littlest things way too far sometimes, and can be found to nearly wear himself out trying for a hopeless cause. He figures that given his rather dangerous condition, he no longer deserves nor needs friends to get by, so he's sort of retreated into his shell a little and doesn't talk as much. He seems to quietly just exist, passing his classes and excelling in a few of them without finding comfort in fun and games. Alexandre also spends quite a bit of time researching his condition and ways to keep the horrible thirst at bay, because he hates the idea of anyone finding out about his main weakness. Alex views weaknesses as a horrible, negative thing, both in himself and in others.
Speaking of his relationship with others, while he doesn't interact in a friendly way, you're bound to get his opinion sometimes. He's brutally honest and doesn't care who gets hurt when he speaks his mind. Even if someone were to confess their saddest memories to him, he'd more than likely just tell them to stop wasting his time and let him get on with his life. He was taught that family pride was the only thing worth fighting for, and even with his parents missing, he lives by that rule. He's fiercely protective over his younger sister, and doesn't tell anyone about her existence in order to keep her safe. This is also the reason he tells no one about himself. After seeing how easily his parents were wrenched from him, he feels that to expose secrets is to become vulnerable, and so he keeps himself under lock and key. Unless you're in his class or house, it's unlikely that you've ever caught a glimpse of him, because he wanders around where others don't.
Slytherin's are a little more fortunate, seeing as the house characteristics are rather dark, and they don't tend to pry at him as much as the others do. He'll hold a conversation, but his personality is never there. Conversations are just words to him, and while others might remember them, it was nothing more than something to pass the time in his opinion. He holds no value in laughter and smiling, and almost never does either. He comes off as self-confident and arrogant, but when he's alone, he doubts and criticizes himself severely. Nothing is ever as good as he wants it to be. He's looking to fill in the gaps that were formed when his parents were gone. They aren't there to give him advice, so he's hard on himself in their place.

SAMPLE;
Alex (but from a gifted Academy RP)In his irritation, Alexandre became even more curious of this girl's strange motives, so he extended the bubble away from his mind and into hers once again, wanting to know what she was thinking. He'd worried at first that people could feel his gift as he used it, like a tingling sensation in their mind or something that would alert them to his alien presence. But it had quickly became clear that they could feel nothing, so he was no longer hesitant about delving into the mind of another. Such a useful gift suited the arch angel well, as it helped him know what his opponents were planning if they had it set in stone, though he still had to get the hang of using it. He could only hear strong, clear thoughts, and it drained his energy if he kept the bubble pushed away from the confines of his mind for too long. But the minute his bubble enveloped her mind, a very distinct thought came across like a radio wave, and Alexandre narrowed his eyes lightly at her in contempt. She thought he smelled bad? Oh, and she was really one to be talking - or thinking, rather. She smelled like a fucking dog, like that was much better. "What?" he asked somewhat scathingly. "Haven't you ever smelled a vampire before?" Let her do what she wanted with that information.
He noticed her movements with her tail, and his own lashed from side to side again, the fur bristling a small amount, but not enough to be noticeable to the unobservant. She might be the observant type however, Alexandre didn't really know. He just knew that he was rather offended that she'd thought about how bad he smelled. How rude, disrupting someone's peace and then thinking crude thoughts about them in your head. The nerve this girl had! Even though the thought had not necessarily been a very cruel one, he was still irked about it. Very vain, Alexandre didn't like to think of others looking down of him. He tugged absentmindedly at the bottom of his yellow Alesana shirt as he watched her closely, his eyes still narrowed.
Oh! And she even had the nerve to turn around and be all nice to him now, after thoughts like those! But he didn't want to provoke himself into getting too angry, or she might set off his little anger condition. And he didn't want to accidentally surface his necromancer powers again, the last time that had happened he'd almost been the literal death of himself. Now that he was 'dead', killing himself again would send him somewhere he'd never be able to return from. The arch angel's wings stiffened slightly as he thought of this. "Alexandre," he replied to her question, trying to keep himself calm. His tone was obviously very controlled, he was trying not to make another snide comment on what he'd heard while invading her mind.
