As the second born son of Alfred Armstrong and Erika Armstrong, Alfie came kicking and screaming into the world to an idyllic family unit that was rounded out by his arrival. Or so it seemed.
Behind tired smiles and repeated phrases about how lucky they felt, the truth of the Armstrongs home life was a much darker situation existing on a lower simmer that was destined to boil over.
As a child, it wasn't something he noticed easily. Alfie had no way of comprehending that sharing a name with his father wasn't because he was a cherished namesake but that he was given the name for the sake of it. The fierce protectiveness he experienced from his older brother Jesse always felt like something that older brothers just did and not a necessity to shield him from what went on behind the closed doors he lived in.
He knew that his father had a temper and he learned young that it worsened whenever he drank the bad-smelling glass bottles from the fridge that he was told he couldn't touch.
Slammed doors, raised voices and a deep sense of terror for his parents unpredictable mood swings became the norm to him. He managed to put up with it until his fifteenth birthday when the cycle that he knew would never be able to break felt like it was going to break him.
With no real plan and even less real money, Alfie packed what little he could carry on his back and snuck out of the bedroom window of his childhood home for the last time.
Alone, adrift and with an awareness that he could never go home, Alfie did the only thing he could think to do at that age. He called in any and all goodwill he had with the friends he had since childhood.
The next three years of his life was spent transiently, couch surfing and being a temporary guest in the homes of those same friends until he wore out his welcome and had to do the same over again.
Miraculously, he managed to finish high school on time and with grades that he was proud of even though they weren't stellar on paper. College had never appealed to him and he was unwilling to take on excessive debt for something he couldn't say for certain he would be able to stick with.
From the age of sixteen to twenty, he worked a number of odd jobs around town in order to make ends meet and do his best to get by.
It wasn't until he secured at a job at Well Played has he felt like he has some semblance of stability under his feet.
PERSONALITY.
+ lively, confident, suave
- selfish, foolish, impatient
Fearless, loyal, street smart and resourceful. Those are the main reasons that he's managed to survive a number of curve balls thrown his way by life. To Alfie, his friends are the most important thing on earth to him because they became family to him after his failed him.Β
He sometimes has a bit of a temper, especially when scorned but he tries his best to keep that in check. He finds joy and an almost child-like fascination in the little things of life, he loves mischief and danger and above all else, adventure.
He has a consistent habit of getting in over his head and having to scramble for how best to figure it out.
Alfie gets a thrill from a good argument or a fight and isn't above grating on someone's nerves to achieve that. It may be childish but so is he at times.
FUN ADJACENT FACTS.
Has never met a 'No Entry' or 'Keep Out' sign that he didn't want to bypass.
Will occasionally indulge in some weed or molly but for the most part isn't a huge drug user.
Got certified as a lifeguard 2 years ago and now he works as a lifeguard seasonally @ the swimming beach.
Not the biggest fan of the burbs, too many childhood memories tied to growing up there with his family.
