The journal is a simple leather bound notebook. The pages tend to be stained around the edges with dark ink and tea, well loved from before it was even used. The writing within is careful, but still messy. It's a little battered from its inclusion in most of Alexander's every day life. Every other page is filled with a rather hastily-done sketch of a surreal landscape, as well as scribbled notes pointing to different parts of it.

-General Information- Name - Alexander
Stage - Child (11)
Sex - Male
Species - Incubus
Item - Blackberry Sage Black Tea in a Porcelain cup
Height - 3'5
Eye Colour - Dark Grey
Hair Colour - Cherry
Skin Colour - Pale, but not overly so
Clothing - Scarlet t-shirt, grey slacks, black spring jacket, long black socks, and a small black hairclip hidden in his hair for luck
Other Characteristics - Shoulder-length straight hair, gentle face, black wings, and black curled horns.
-Personality-
Alexander is generally relaxed, genuinely happy to help out when asked. The main thing that can get him excited is aesthetic, specifically visual. He absolutely loves a pretty picture - especially when it's dynamic. He has a habit of popping into the dreams of others, if only to see what the dream looks like, how it feels, the mood of it all. Seeing such contrasts invigorates him, gives him no end of inspiration and child-like glee. He tends to get along decently well with others, especially if he's peeked at their subconscious once or twice, but he can be just a little too lax about keeping appointments, and a little too shy around new people. Oddly enough, even to himself, he half-enjoys walking in on nightmares. The landscapes are usually stunning, and it gives him a chance to try to calm someone down, possibly.
-The Better Traits-
Relaxed - Alexander never really feels the need to get upset around others, it's just... not really important. It can even be ugly, at times.
Caring - If he can help someone, he will, even if it ends up hurting him a little. To this he goes almost to a fault, at times, especially if he's witnessed the sorrows of the other person.
Calming - He likes to calm others down, even if they weren't all that upset in the first place.
-The Less-So-Positive Traits-
Acute Hedonism - Rather than any form of carnal pleasure, a pleasure of the senses. He'll seek out new and beautiful landscapes and creations, even if that leads him to occasionally enter the dreams of what might be a total stranger.
Sensitive Emotions - His feelings can be hurt badly, easily. He won't really show it, much, he'll just get a little mopy around the offender and avoid them occasionally.
Obsessive - When he finds an inspiration, he will follow it, he will capture it, and he will use whatever he can to get the best out of it.
-Hobbies-
Sketching his most recent exploration,
Napping,
Trying to help others with their problems, even if it isn't entirely needed.

-Friends/Family-
-Family-
Alexander's family is a contained one, for sure, he knows he has a father, but he's never met him. His mother doesn't really like to talk about him at all, it seems a touchy subject.
Mother - Aeona / A caring person, if a bit protective. Always taught Alexander to do his best with other people, not to give up. Alexander sees her as a role model, looking up to her.

Calming Steams [3] - Can gently influence those around him to be a bit more tired.
Herbal Remedy [1] - A careful application of herbs can clear and heal such small wounds such as small scuffs and paper cuts.
Boiling Interest [1] - A bit of focus is all it takes for Alexander to bring water from lukewarm to slightly warm!
Fruity Appeal [1] - Nobody seems to hate a temporary smell of fresh blackberry tea, do they?
-Resistance-
Thought Manipulation [1] - His calming aura tends to ward away some minor attempts at making him upset or angry.
-Weakness-
Fragile Bones - He tends to avoid physical activity outside of dreams, as his bones are just a bit brittle, frequent to need medical aid from what would be the smallest of wounds.
Cold - Alexander can get a little jittery in the cold, when he's freezing is one of the main times he can get upset.

[Trees and Skylands - Child]
[The left page is covered in a drawing of what looks to be a forest with a grand castle jutting over the top, towers rising and bending, letting loose waterfalls. Islands fill the skies, casting shadows on the landscape underneath. The drawing is a little messy, without shading, and can barely convey the detail that must have been the reference.]
Dear diary~
I had a really good day today! Mom made me a really nice lunch, she even gave me desert! She told me that I should start getting ready to go to school, soon! It’s really exciting, school sounds like fun. I drew a picture of what I dreamed about! It was really nice, there were knights and dragons everywhere. I managed to fly a ship all the way up to an island. The forest was really pretty, but scary… people said there were bad things in it. Someone told me not to go and meet them, because they weren’t friendly. I listened, but now I’m a little sad, what if they just wanted a friend?

[New Sights, New Wonders - Child]
[The left page has a sketch of a large six-sided die on it, each pip containing a small city, roads and bridges connecting each pip on a side. The singular pip contains a series of towers, seeming like a communications hub. The rest of the die is covered in large plains of something smooth and white. The background was left empty, like it was just an open void.]
Dear Diary~
Mom took me to the school today, she said I'm gonna be living here for a while. She brought me to what she said is going to be my room for a while and gave me a letter and told me not to open it unless I need to, on a bad day. She told me that I'm going to be sharing my room with someone soon, but that for now I get to keep it to myself. I'm excited! I hope they're nice! She said to make sure to keep in touch, so I will! Last night I had a dream about a place with a bunch of machines, it was really cool! There were six places, and each one seemed really different... I'm gonna go try to make friends!
