Raised in a family of hard workers, Alexander wasn't really raised with the saying "follow your dreams". In fact he was more raised to just work your butt off until you're crippled. As a child of a hardworking clan, he was normally alone to deal with what they had after school. So he just reads the books around his house, or whatever had writing on it. He even tried writing his own books through his hand me down note books (which had minimal pages). Although he showed them to his family, they just shrugged it off for the most part. Except for his Aunt. Who decided to take him another town to live with her years later, thanks to his parents being reckless and not really reading contracts. That and it would be nice for him to show his talent where it would be more appreciated. Although he was bullied from time to time, he was still more appreciated than his home town. When he grew up he took up the job of being a waiter at a few restaurants. To keep up with the bills. But he still writes some poetry and stories, just not as often. While growing up he became a lot more gentle than most of his kind, thus a lot of people seem to like him and respect him.

As for his shading and anatomy. I always had this whacky thought in my head of having one of those cartoony characters with small hips and large shoulders with dangly arms. Not sure why, but I always thought those were nice from time to time. Granted I did say I had an issue with that body type with Warwick, but that is because it doesn't look good on him, plus Riot Games has gotten better with their modeling so yeah. It's like a coffee stain on a really nice T-shirt, you gotta get the stain remover for it to look good again. For the shading I decided not to blur it, because it did look pretty good without any blur. Sorry if that kind of throws you off.
