Fresh meat here! I mean... Hi, I'm Erica.

And this is Alex, from the Alex Rider books by Anthony Horowitz. Basically, Alex is the nephew of an MI6 agent and got blackmailed into being a teen spy. Except he's really good at it, so his life quickly goes to hell. I've taken him from after the last book in the series, so he has been thoroughly screwed over by pretty much everyone. Triads, mafia, communists, mad scientists, and even the 'good guys' now and then. If you belong to an agency that likes to use initials, he will side-eye the fuck out of you.

Other than that, he is a normal teenaged boy. I swear. Let's ignore his black belt in karate and very strange assortment of randomly useful skills his uncle taught him. Everyone knows how to walk on a tightrope after all.

I can be found around plurk as [plurk.com profile] anacrusis, and though I'm not on AIM (snapmagess) regularly, just PM me and I can hop on no problem.

Hurray! :-D Alex Rider has to be one of my all time favorite YA series. I'm really excited to have him around.

And, also, welcome. I'm Ryl and I play Eliot Spencer. Welcome to TheGames. Looking forward to getting Eliot and Alex into trouble together.

I can't say the thought hadn't occurred to me, too... Btw, I still can't stop laughing that Alex got put in the same district as his look-alike. Good thing he's not a year older...

Revya used to be the Head Honcho of the BFF Empire, so she could be considered a member of one of those 'initials agencies.' Probably not going to be the first thing that comes up in conversation though. Probably not going to come up in conversation at all.

Hey, I'm Gedo. Also new here. Nice to meet ya~

Welcome! I'm Rikku (Playing Finnick and Tate) - and Finnick is gonna flip seeing Alex haha. Or at least take an interest in him for being so similar looking/attractive which will make him a target in the Capitol.

Look forward to playing with you! :D
