Full Name:Alexandra Elizabeth Reef
Nicknames:Alex, Al, Lexie, or anything else since she doesn't really care.
Birthday:April 1, 1988
History: Alexandra Elizabeth Reef was born in a small town in Northern California. Her parents were wealthy and she was their fifth and last child. The town she grew up in was small with a population of about 300 people who all seem to know each other.
Due to the towns size gossip was a constant and Alex's family was fairly prominent so there was almost always gossip about the Reefs. Fortunately, Alex's older siblings kept people from noticing her own bad behavior and making her the subject of conversations. Her older siblings consist of three sisters and a brother.
As a small child she was often seen as the perfect little angel by people in town and often times was overlooked by her parents. Her sisters were always doing some social event and her brother was always in trouble so her parents were always focused on them. She can't really blame her parents, there were only two of them and five kids to deal with. So as she got older she stopped caring, she stopped trying to be the perfect child and stopped trying to earn her parents attention.
At about eleven years old her grades began to drop. It was unnoticed due to some situations that involved her brother bringing home another man for Christmas. She found the situation very amusing and quickly warmed up to her brothers partner. At twelve she started skipping classes. She'd go to the park or sit at the bus stop reading.
When she was fourteen one of her sisters boyfriends gave her some marijuana and she also found the joys of alcohol. Her parents were preoccupied with her eldest sisters wedding and her second eldest sister was preparing for college. Alex pretty much got worse from there, before she had put some effort into things but everything seemed to stop. She found herself hanging out with the wrong crowd and spending nights getting stoned instead of doing homework like "normal" people did.
Her parents sent her to Diablo University for her freshman year like they had done with all her siblings. She's done okay there, somehow managing to keep a passing grade despite the fact that she rarely does the work.

General Personality:
There are many differing opinions on Alexandra, she really could care less what one you have. Her teachers think she's smart and could succeed if she applied herself. Her parents are trying to keep the delusion that she's still there baby girl. Her real friends know she's always there if she cares about you. Her enemies, well she still hasn't bothered to figure out what they think and she doubts she ever will.
She's not a morning person, hasn't been for as long as she can remember. She has a tendency to stay in bed past ten, whether that's because her body chooses to, math is her first class or she tends to be hung over hasn't been verified. She's not really an afternoon or evening person either, she's more of a 'I'm a whenever the hell I choose' person if you bother to ask.
She likes to read. Fantasy, horror, historical fiction, romance, biographies, text books, sci-fi, political thrillers, you name it she'll read it. Just don't ask her to read it for school, she'll most likely burn it before she reads it for an assignment. She might read it eventually but she prefers to do things on her own time.
There's very few things that Alex tries hard in and singing is one of them. She has a good voice and has always found that music is a way to express herself. When she sings she goes from an apathetic girl to someone who's emotions are shown freely.
Alex could be seen as lazy, she often agrees with the assessment but most of the time it's just that nothing is important enough for her to do anything about it. She tends to not listen to what society says is important and makes up her own mind on things. She knows a lot of people think she's different then she really is but she can't be bothered to give a damn.
