In Character
Name: Alexander 'Alec' Gideon Lightwood
Canon: The Mortal Instruments (Book canon)
Canon Point: Post City of Heavenly Fire
Sex/Gender: Male
Actual Age/Apparent Age: 18
Belongings: Alec will be in his Shadowhunter gear when he arrives. This means he'll have his seraph blades, assorted knives along with his bow, quiver, and arrows. He will also have the spiral notebook that Magnus Bane gave him.
Skills and Powers:
Nephilim or Shadowhunters, are race of individuals given special abilities by the Angel Raziel so that they can hunt demons and protect humans (Mundanes) from the supernatural. These gifts give Shadowhunters increased strength and agility, which is enhanced using magical runes called Marks that are drawn on their bodies. Some Marks are permanent and protect Shadowhunters from supernatural attacks. Others are temporary and give a Shadowhunter enhanced speed, agility, mental abilities, and healing among other traits.
Because of his permanent Marks and rituals performed on him as a child, he is immune to many types of magic and mind manipulation. Most supernatural beings cannot read his mind or bespell him with glamours.
Alec has spent the majority of his life training to hunt demons. He is well-versed in hand-to-hand combat and the use of many types of weapons. His preferred weapon is the bow and he is one of the best archers among all of the Shadowhunters. Although he had not killed a demon until he was eighteen, something unusual in his society, Alec is a skilled fighter with blades and bow. His experience with more modern weapons, such as guns, is limited since those types of weapons do not work well with the kinds of magic Nephilim use while fighting the supernatural.
