Fighting Style: Alex is a driven fighter, fueled by determination. Her primary method is to use her pistols and Fruit abilities to bombard her opponents, seeking to overwhelm them with her teleporting shots.

She always seeks to confuse and outmaneuver her opponents. If Alex gauges someone as too strong for her to face openly, she can resort to using a Flintlock rifle to snipe them from a safe area. She will more often than not teleport away from a battle if she sees that it is not in her favor or if some danger occurs.
Devil Fruit Name: Yusou Yusou no Mi
Devil Fruit Meaning: Transport Transport Fruit
Devil Fruit Type: Paramecia
Devil Fruit Power: The ability to "Transport" yourself, others, or objects somewhere else the User knows and can access. ( Teleportation )
Devil Fruit Strengths: User can warp or teleport to a location they have been to, using the image and approximate location in their mind to direct where to go. User can also teleport other people and objects through touch, utilizing the other person's memory of locations as well. Teleportation is instant and can be used to avoid attacks and to escape effectively. Can be used mid-air. Interruption of a warp won't cause harm to the transporters.
Devil Fruit Weaknesses: User warp is limited to memory of places to teleport. People and objects being teleported must be held my touch, and things in gaseous or liquid state cannot be easily warped because of the molecule movement. Objects exceeding more than what the User can carry require more concentration than usual, and if it is truly massive, might force the User unconscious or even cause potentially lethal internal damage to the User. Teleportation requires concentration depending on if the User has been there often or just recently and whether the location is within sight or not. Meaning, if the location that the User wants to travel to is very well known to the User or is within sight, little to no concentration is really required. If the location is somewhere they have been only a few times or if they don't quite remember the area, concentration is demanded. Long distance transports take up more energy, but many short distanced transports can add up too. People who are teleported may experience nausea and temporary confusion. Any loose clothing or items may/will be lost during teleportation. Any person carrying Sea Stone or if Sea Stone is physically touching the User, the warp is immediately stopped. Usual weaknesses regarding Sea Stone and the Ocean applies. Warps can be interrupted and will stop abruptly. If the User has extensive injuries, it will be difficult to focus on teleporting, similarly, if the User is intercepted by injury or attack even an instant before the warp, they cannot teleport because the concentration is broken. Electric shocks prove effective in this respect.

Facial Hair: None
Description: A Shandian right down to her soul, Alex looks more like a Pirate than any respectable citizen. Wild fiery hair, blazing blue eyes, and a tough demeanor would make anyone believe she isn't society's most sophisticated woman. Her upper back adorns the trademark pair of small white wings, more feathery and feisty than her Skypian neighbors. Her tattoos color her darkened skin as they wrap themselves around her smooth curves. She is tall for her gender, and although slender, her measurements are not lacking.
Personality
Summary: Ambitious
Traits: Lively, Vivid, Playful Sarcasm, Fighter, Rebellious, More Serious, and Short Tempered.
Strengths: She can channel her Emotions into action or to suit her needs. She is bold and expresses her ideals, though is considerate and more open minded. Able to calculate and measure up a person or a circumstance.
Flaws: She tends to only express her positive emotions and instead hides the negative away. She is more prone to run away from something rather than confront it, both physically and emotionally. Alex doesn't deal well with criticism, taking it harder than it is. Has a habit of Self-Obstructing herself, meaning she is prone to beat herself up about a mistake rather than praise herself for an accomplishment.
Mannerisms: Alex is very strong and confident in her demeanor, acting more masculine than some other women. Unless in the presence of high authority, she is more prone to be sloppy and slightly barbaric compared to the proper raising of others. Slightly rude in manners, but isn't outright insulting.
Motto: "Those who are quick on the draw are the ones who get all the prizes."
Dream: ( As of now, but is liable to change as she meets others ) Live life to the fullest and Make something of myself
Hobbies: Target Practice and making random Crafts for fun ( Mostly whittling things from random items she finds ).
Food Preference: Things that are meaty or spicy. Liable to eat just about anything. Prefers beer over sake or wine.
Smell: Gunpowder and the light smell of fresh air
Laugh: "Meheh heh heh"
Detail: Alex is a two sided Mirror. She can show you all the good and positive things about herself without letting light shine on what she believes is her bad side. She was raised to be a Warrior of the Shandian Flame, not some emotionally unstable girl. "A Warrior does not show fear, and is not controlled by fear. He is the master of his emotions and the embodiment of the Flame," as her father always said. Alex will actively be the bold fighter her Father wanted, hardly taking the time to dwell outwardly on hesitation or emotion. She strongly believes that any emotional difficulty or hardship is a sign of weakness, and instead either powers through it or runs from it completely, allowing years of unresolved thoughts and feelings pile into a black mass of negativity, mostly aimed toward herself. Alex already had to deal with the hardships of her Father passing on his status and the disapproval of her village, and any added criticism will only add further to her self-obstruction. She refuses to let her emotions get the better of her, and instead uses them to fuel her drive in battle, convincing herself that this was the way to deal with emotion. Alex is therefore very physical and short tempered, more prone to be lively than introverted. When she finds something worth fighting for, a cause, then there's little that can douse the driving fire within her. She dreads the end of her two year freedom, her strive to live out her time to the fullest makes her loath to waste it. That's one of the few reasons why she stays on the right side of the Law.

History
Ocean of Birth: Sky Islands
Early Life: Alex is the daughter of a Human woman and the current Chief of the Shandian village, Kuruk, descendent of Calgara himself. After her mother named her, she returned to the Blue Sea far below, leaving Alex solely in the care of Kuruk and the Shandians. She was raised in their ways, and by her father's instruction, she was trained early and hard for the way of the Shandian Warrior. However, her status as both the Chieftain's daughter and a Half blooded Warrior would forever collide, stained heavily by the veiled spurn of fellow villagers. Though young, Alex was fully aware of her situation: She was a female, Next in line for the family line of Leaders, All of her Father's expectations hanging over her, and the issue of her Mother's tainting blood in her veins.
Alex found haven in her time spent with the village elder, an elderly woman known as Ehawee, who was the closest thing Alex had to a mother figure. When not following her Father's footsteps, Alex spent her time with Ehawee, learning sewing and crafts. Alex would spend most of her early years trying to balance out her sense of Warrior and Woman, War and Peace, the Extrovert and the Introvert. But the next stage would stunt her balance entirely.
Recent: At the age of 13, Alex's Rite of becoming a full Warrior of Shandora had come. She faced the trials one by one, finally earning her place and her own respect among the people as a fully-fledged Warrior. However, from there on, things for Alex would turn sour very quickly. First was tension between other Skypians and the Shandains over what seemed like trifle things: trade, relations, and the access of Vearth. Second, Blue Sea dwellers caused much trouble as they pillaged and sought to attack the Sky Islands as they did below. This was met by warfare upon the foolish Blue Sea people, ending only in their demise, yet tensions were stacking. Third was the passing of Ehawee, Alex's beloved friend and council. Alex's mind and soul hardened deeply over the years of these hardships, and would lead to her imbalance of heart. She stuck fast to her Father's way, being the only other thing she knew, and became tough in the way of the Warrior. Alex forsaw her dead end future, and suddenly regretting her lack of seeing the world and adventure therefore, she repeatedly begged her Father's leave. Upon her 19th Birthday, Chief Kuruk, after being beseeched nonstop, allowed Alex to go down into the Blue Seas before she would be dragged into living for the village. She would see the lower world for two years, and then promptly return to take up her role as village Leader, where she will be married, bear children, and ultimately live for the people, for the village.
Current: Alex descended into the Blue Sea, and from there hitched rides with various ships, selling whatever crafts she made in spare time, and making most of her living collecting bounties of the Blue Sea, some of her getting revenge for her violent childhood troubles. She heard rumors of the Seven Star Isles, rumors of the gathering bounties and infamous names, and so set out there herself, wanting to see the One Piece herself and make what money she could so she could continue her travels. She is very conscious of her two years, and of the ticking time of he clock before her life is a closed end.
Attacks
Teleporting
Free Fall: Alex will grab hold of her enemy, usually in a sort of submission hold and teleport both herself and the enemy into the sky ( about a mile up ), and will then stomp the poor soul down earthward, teleporting back to safety while in mid-air. She will wait below the 'drop zone' to await her opponent's abrupt arrival. She might use this as an interrogation method, dropping people to their deaths before saving them at the last minute to force answers.
Hawk Dive: If Alex is going for a close range hit via punch, kick, etc, she can get the surprise on her opponent by suddenly teleporting mid-punch into their immediate area, usually opposite or in a unsuspecting area before unleashing her attack. This can be used with Dials and even with her pistol shots as well.
Stack the Totem: In a small fighting area, in a span of a 10 foot radius, Alex will be able to teleport rapidly with the same amount of concentration as simply looking to the spot and keeping eye contact for a matter of seconds. In the blink of an eye, often before an enemy can fully realize, Alex will have teleported to the spot. She can do this a number of times, but if the fight drags on too long, she will tire easily ( about 30 warps in 20 posts kind of rate ). With this she can either dodge attacks, attack with Dials or her pistols, or simply navigate through a battlefield with relative ease.
Marksmanship
Rapid Shot: Alex's guns can fire 5 rounds each, and she can empty both within one fell swoop. For better efficiency, Alex will usually use only one pistol, using her free hand to continuously reload and fire in a quick draw succession that would rival most other Marksmen. This burns ammo very quickly, take mind.
Eagle Eye: Exceptional aim is Alex's game. Give her enough time to make eye contact with her target, and you can bet she'll hit. Her consistency may not be up to par with professionals, but her accuracy is not something to laugh at.
Dial Warfare
Burn Blade: A hilt with an attached Breath and Flame Dial, making a sword of fire that has the potential to cut through trees with relative ease.
Dial Party: Alex will load her entire leather arm glove and shin guards with Dials, ones unknown to the opponent until she attacks, and by then, its often too late. She can strategically place them, one leg can contain Flash Dials, while her fist may hold an Impact that will crush an enemy as soon as they are blinded. You never know what you'll get from the Party.
Speed Skate Strike: By adorning her Dial powered skates, Alex can easily maneuver the seas and land with high speeds, putting further power behind her attacks.
Dial Upgrade: By simply adding Dials to many of her various actions and attacks, what would seem ineffective, like punches, can suddenly be powered up substantially into a deadly force, examples being Jet Dials, Impacts, or even Heat Dials. Her pistols can also be upgraded to suit her needs as well, simply attack a Dial. It would be wise not to underestimate her actions.
