Main Character #1: Alexander Manrun
High Mage Second class Alexander Kyle Manrun (a.k.a. Zander)
Born into a world of equality and freedom, it is hard to imagine his home ever being less than what it was, but, upon moving to the Bloody Mountains and seeing Kitharea for what it truly is, Alexander realises that his life is only what he wanted to see.

Personal history
Born into a family of mages (mothers side) and archers (fathers side) he is the youngest of four, and also the only male.
He lived in the Hikla province of 'The Golden City' until he was 18 years old (36 in Human years), when he finished Hikla alchemy school and went off to the West to teach the Alchemy classes in the Bloody Mountains mage school.
His mother (who was from the west and moved to the east) taught him all forms of magic, and he has a natural ability in lightening magic, which proves useful when he needs to create electricity for his alchemy experiments.
His Father taught him how to use a bow since he could walk and follow instructions. He is a good shot, though still practices constantly and is actually far behind when it comes to his sisters abilities, mainly because while they practiced archery he was in school learning alchemy.
He goes to the temples regularly, as religion is important to him, and he - just like the majority of elves - holds maintaining respect for others high on his list of important things. He knows a few of the priestesses from the Hikla province because of his regular visits and also knows priest's and priestesses from other provinces because of his trips to temples when he was away with school.

Education
7-18 he was in alchemy school, where he learnt not only how to use alchemy in healing, battle and every day life. But he also learnt how to fight with a sword and bows and arrows as civilised battles were a popular tradition in elven culture.
He is currently a teacher in training at Blamash Mage school (the Bloody West's mage school)
Employment
(Age of 7-18 he was in school)
At 18 he got his first job as an alchemy teacher in training in the West or 'The Bloody Mountains'. Nobody wanted the job because no one but elves (mainly) had the capabilities needed and most elves refused to move.
Accomplishments & Achievements
Learnt to fire a bow and arrow at age 6 (not successfully though. He wouldn't get his first bull's-eye until he turned 8)
Went into Alchemy school at 7 and nearly got kicked out three times over the 11 years in schooling due to poor behaviour (aka fighting) but in the end won 'best scholar' at his leaving ceremony.
Lost in multiple competitions to his peers in the first six years of schooling as he wasn't all that great at performing spells quickly. On his seventh year, he won the competition due to practice and six years worth of learning from mistakes.
Out of sixteen people that went for his job at Blamash Mage school, he was the least experienced but still got the job anyway, due to his impressive credentials and background
Failures & Embarrassments
Lost six years in a row at a school competition due to his inability to learn spells quick enough.
Was the worst shot in his village for a long time and lost multiple competitions there as well.
Once fell asleep in his teachers lecture and was awoken by the teacher using a charm on him that made him speak the truth all day, people asked him questions and found out stupid secrets like who his crush was (she promptly turned him down) and if he liked more than one gender (it wasn't uncommon and he did infact like both males and females).
Mental Trauma
When he was 11 (elven years, in human years he would of been 22) he saw Hikla's only public execution of a criminal who had stolen food for his family, and it has given him nightmares since.
When he was 17, he was hosting a trip for the first year students and they were attacked by a group of bandits made of sand and he had to kill a few of them, but not before one of his students got seriously injured and nearly died on his watch.
Intellectual Characteristics
Logical, Good with Languages, Critical
Morality & Philosophy
He rests in the Lawful Neutral are of the morality square. He believes that as longs as you are able to help you should, but going against what is put in place to stop the actions (like laws) should be considered before action.
His philosophy is that life should be protected and that one should put others above themselves, as he grew up in a family where he was taught that all lives matter, he has a hatred towards those that think certain lives are not important.
Taboos
Killing without reason
Disrespect of a person due to sexuality, gender or things they can not decide or change.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
He wants to prove his mother right and his sisters wrong and become the first teacher in his entire family, as his sisters all went into military careers and said he wouldn't suite teaching because of his aggressive traits. While his mother said that his natural ability with lightening and abilities in alchemy will make him an impressive teacher. He really just wants to make his family proud and prove the other students at the alchemy academy that his fighting didn't ruin his chances.

This is just a rough guess of what I want Alexander to be like, I just think that well...my main characters are interesting people, and just like a normal person... I need to get to know them before I can say anything is definitely 'canon' to them.
