Appearance/face claim: Alexander "Luci" Ilmedi was born to a father who happened to be a cruel drunk cooper, and to a weak willed, cowardly twig of a mother who died when he was eleven. His father died shortly after before the boy knew his thirteenth birthday. He stands at a lanky 6'4", lean from his time on the sea but hard as well. Despite only having spent four years on the ocean, Alex has seen some very distressing and very eye opening events. These stories he stores in his mind have given him a gaunt, haunting look. Sharp cheeks, a slightly hooked nose, a strong but pointed chin, and thinly tapers ears, he looks almost otherworldly with his violet-blue eyes and strangely pale skin. His hair is always kept swept back, combed into a very tidy ponytail, and oiled so that the obnoxiously wavy dark brown hair stays straight, and he favors loose fitting, as flamboyant as possible clothing, the pricier the better.
