Name: Alexander O' Connell
Gang Name: Nitro
Age: 16
Birthday: July 25
Gender: Male
Gang: The Feared Tigers
Rank: Fists Fighter
Skill Level: Knuckles
Love: None currently
Job: Student, works part-time in a skate shop
Physical Description: In somewhat of a stereotypical Irish form, Nitro has a wiry build, thin yet strong, accented by a 5’6” height and 110 pound weight. Straight ‘dish water‘ blond hair falls to just above his shoulders, blunt cut, and it always seems to at least partly cover his cerulean blue eyes. Never one to be more than an another face in the crowd, there isn‘t much else distinguishing about him; a single silver loop earring hangs off his left ear is all. He has very pale skin, it’s always been that way.
As for clothes, Nitro is usually caught in knee cargo shorts or long cargo pants, midnight blue or dark red, quite a color difference at times. A black T-shirt with second layer yellow long sleeves covers the top half of him, and always a black dog collar around his neck snugly. As for shoes, they’re black Vans, with a blue stripe down the side.
Personality: Bitter, resentful, and cold. Those are the first impressions one would get about him, though they‘re just a cover for his deeper feelings. A true sadness still lurks from the past, but that is all he can seem to show. He truly is a kind person at heart, somewhere in there is the old person he used to be. Nitro tends to keep to himself, he is very quiet, but can carry on a conversation is necessary. He has no goals in life other than to survive, as he learned not to become attached to anyone else for fear of losing them, and being alone. One of his strengths can be his focus on training his body and mind further, to become better in anyway he can, but therein also lies a fault, when he over does it he goes just slightly off the deep end temporarily. But that passes as well. He tends to do things very fast, and has never had to be rushed or sped up in a task, part of the reason for his name. Speed is a key part of his fighting style.
History: Nitro never had true parents. He was raised by his grandparents ever since the age of two, his mother abandoning him there, his father is still an unknown. Though his grandmother was in declining health they took him in, and living a middle class life happily for several years. His grandfather never really bonded with him during those years, still disappointed with his daughter’s faults. But that happy life wasn‘t the case on his tenth birthday, Nitro‘s grandmother passed away, due to cancer of the lungs. His grandfather was heart broken, but soon found that his grandson could be the world to him just the same. Nitro was then enrolled into many different classes outside of school, self defense, skateboarding lessons, karate, many fighting classes, by his grandfather. He would make sure his little boy would knew how to take care of himself. Well, the years rolled by again, four years of perfect grades and graduating several fighting academies, and again he was facing loss, but this time, very alone. His grandpa, the only father to him, passed away due to old age. And it got worse from there, the next two years changed him immensely. He got into fights, and still does at school, began to steal to survive, did drugs a few times; he even tried to find his mother. She turned up dead on a drug OD, which stopped his possible addictions there. He wished for some sort of family, he had always had one, so he turned to the streets in desperation. He just recently joined the Tigers, finding them to be as close as a family as he could get.
Other Information: His grandpa often told him stories about how he used to race Indy cars and Hydroplane boats, only after retiring from the Air Force‘s fastest plane division. It might not have been true entirely, but to a small child, everything was possible. His name is also in honor of those stories.
