Full Name: Alexander Marion FranklinGender and Sexuality: Male |Asexual Pronouns: He/Him/HisEthnicity/Species: Welsh/Pennsylvania Dutch | Personification of PennsylvaniaBirthplace and Birthdate: Philadelphia, March 4, 1681Guilty Pleasures: One of Alex’s guilty pleasures, is watching what has become of TLC. He watches a lot of reality TV. He has no idea why he even does it, it was more so as a joke in the beginning. But in the end, he became invested. He hates what has become of TLC channel, but boy is he still watching it.Phobias: Large bodies of water, this is mostly due to the fact that he’s a landlocked state. Growing up he never learned how to swim. So with large bodies of water, like an ocean, it scares him. Even tho he loves going to the beach.What They Would Be Famous For: He’s very talented with the violin and writes his own music. Not so much nowadays. He’d probably be notable for that, and maybe for his work in the medical field, mainly psychology.What They Would Get Arrested For: I don’t think Alex was ever arrested. He tends to be a good boy, lol.OC You Ship Them With: Edmund (Delaware), and even then it’s just really fluffy with the two. But it’s weird to show it through rp since I rp both of them ._. OC Most Likely To Murder Them: Who would really wanna murder this precious cream puff?Favorite Movie/Book Genre: Alex really enjoys reading a lot of fantasy novels, and such a love for books came about in his childhood. One of his favorites to this day is Gulliver’s Adventures and The Pilgrim’s Progress. When it comes to movies, he enjoys drama as well as animation.Least Favorite Movie/Book Cliche: There are few things he doesn’t enjoy. Though I think horror and gore movies aren’t his cup of tea. Too much blood is something he doesn’t enjoy seeing much of. And like torture movies like Saw and stuff he doesn’t like too much either, it makes him think of the past too much. Also toilet humor isn’t something he doesn’t like too much.Talents and/or Powers: Making a dollar out of 15 cents, is quite the marksmen even though he’d never use a gun on someone, has the patience of a saint; because if I was him, I would’ve killed my neighbors by now.Why Someone Might Love Them: I mentioned it above, but he’s a very patient person. A listener too and really tries his best to make people feel good about themselves, and also make them feel at ease in his presence. He’s not a judgmental person, and I think that’s why he’s able to see the good in everyone. He’s very kind and is willing to give his last to help someone out in need. He’s also a big cuddly teddy bear that wouldn’t harm a fly. :cWhy Someone Might Hate Them: Present day Alex is very indecisive, and not as assertive as he used to be. He’s not very honest with his feelings often times and can be very passive aggressive. He’s unlearning some harmful behaviors he developed in the past. And sometimes he does give into microaggressions and things like that. Sometimes he can be described as the liberal white person that’s just as racist as the openly racist person. Though I think what people started noticing about him in the past in rp, is that he’s pretty misogynistic and doesn’t see anything wrong with it at all. How They Change: If it’s life of death, he’ll change. But on his own, he won’t change at all. I think it takes a lot of people to show concern for him to really change or for him to finally realize something is wrong here. His friends help him a lot with realizing this stuff.Why You Love Them: I’m biased because this is my home state and my oldest muse. But Alex has came a long way. From him being a problematic, abusive, asshole in my first role play. To cutting off the toxic parts in his life, and him growing and becoming the placid grandpoo he is now. I really love Alex, he is home, all the good and bad parts of it. He is what I picture the state to be, meaning well with what it does but never really getting it all right on the first try. It tries really hard and it shows, even if the progress is slow. It’s not perfect, he’s not perfect, and that’s why I love him.
