NAME: Alexei Hansson
AGE: 17
ORIGIN: Berk
OCCUPATION: Medical. Alexei is a healer who specializes in the treatment of dragons. Because of her age, she is not regarded as the leading authority on dragon treatment, but she is rising quickly through the ranks.
GENDER & SEXUALITY: Alexei is a heterosexual female.
LIKES: Alexei likes wolf furs, honey bread, flowers and busy days on the job.
DISLIKES: Alexei dislikes mutton, sunsets, excess heat and the sounds of clanging metal that you usually get by a smithy.
STRENGTHS: Alexei is a quick-thinker, calm under pressure, steady handed and patient. In short, she makes a great healer.
WEAKNESSES: Alexei does not know how to handle weapons. She doesn’t know the first thing about flying dragons. She is a perfectionist, which can—in her work—be a virtue but outside of work it is usually a fault. Her icy, focused nature can sometimes rub people the wrong way by making her appear indifferent and detached from the rest of the world.
FEARS: Alexei is afraid of disease outbreaks and falling ill. She is afraid of failing at her ambition. She is afraid of empty medicine dispensaries and although no one would believe it, she is afraid of dying alone.
AMBITIONS: Alexei wants to be a world-renowned dragon healing authority. She records her findings on dragon healing in the hopes that it will one day be published into a manual for healers everywhere. She wants to run a professional healing practice. She has always wanted to unlock the secrets of the Foreverwing.
SECRETS: She also once wanted to be a traveling bard, but she crushed that dream in pursuit of medicine. She also secretly wonders why she has not found a dragon companion yet. She worries that she may be repellent to dragons, because she very dearly desires one.
OVERALL PERSONALITY: Alexei is neither a social butterfly nor a hermit. She carries a quiet confidence that makes people trust her. She can sometimes come off as cold or distant because she is so fixated on her work. She is not an overt gossip, but she is a covert one. She will mentally speculate village news or other people’s personal affairs, but keeps it to herself for fear of being labeled a gossip. Alexei is, to a certain degree, aware of the way she is perceived by people and sometimes she tries to be warmer, and sometimes she just doesn’t care. Her family motivates her—not to provide for them or make them proud—but rather to show them up and make herself as distant as possible from them.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Alexei is a 5’3’’ brunette with green eyes. She is a classical type of pretty. Her aversion to most Viking-endorsed violence means she is lacking in the area of burns or scars. She does, however, have one rather unsightly burn scar on her forearm from the one time she tried to treat an injured wild dragon without trying to calm him. Not a mistake she ever intended to make again). She has a crescent-shaped birthmark behind her right ear that is difficult to see because of her hair. She has a fur vest that she absolutely loves and a little crystal she wears around her neck at all times. When she was a child, her mother told her is was a gift from her father. She (outwardly) does not believe this, however a part of her might secretly believe it because she never takes it off.
HISTORY:
Alexei’s was born seventeen years ago in the backroom of her mother’s house. Her mother, Hilde, is widely regarded as one of the most popular concubines in Berk. She takes after her mother in appearance, and therefore Alexei does not actually know which of the men living on the island her father is. Although she and her mother look alike, they are starkly different in personality. Alexei looks down upon her mother’s lax, free personality. Their relationship is…strained, to say the least. Part of what motives Alexei is the desire to be the polar opposite of her mother. She wants to show up her parents—her free-loving, wild spirited mother, and a father she doesn’t even know.
As a child, Alexei was fed a piece of meat by her mother that was actually carrying a sharp piece of chipped iron from the knife she had used to cut it. The injury scarred Alexei's windpipe and damaged her voice, and did far more damage to her view of her mother's competence. the incident was a total accident, but Alexei still sees her mother as neglectful and incapable of safely raising a child.
Alexei dabbles in friendships, reaching distant friend status with nearly everyone she meets but never really taking it further. She has a few social weaknesses highlighted by her mother—where Hilde is beautiful, seductive and endlessly charming, Alexei stands out as icy and controlling.
When Alexei was a child, she nursed a domesticated Terrible Terror back to health. The Terrible Terror befriended her, singing from her rooftop to wake her in the mornings and singing her to sleep at night. She named him Soprano, and he became her dearest friend for a brief period. He died of old age within the space of a few months and although she did not develop a deep psychological inability to keep friends because of the incident, Alexei did not exert herself to form any type of relationship after that.
For a brief time period after hitting puberty, her looks gave people the impression that she would soon follow in her mother’s footsteps. Hilde did indeed try to draft Alexei into service, but Alexei intentionally made herself appear incompetent to avoid working in that profession. Viking society never frowned on it, so neither does she, but Alexei had a deep-rooted fear that one day, her unknown father may be one of her customers.
FAMILY: Alexei currently lives with her mother Hilde, although she spends more and more of her time in the massive healing hut she has recently completed construction on. She plans to move out as soon as she can and put as much distance between herself and Hilde as possible.
WEAPON OF CHOICE: Alexei does not use weapons. She does, however, keep a very organized, precise medical kit full of strange tools.
FIGHTING STYLE: N/A.

Unlike the moon, however, her mark is not actually pretty. Which is why she wears her hair the way she does. To take attention away from it.
