As a young baby, Manannan teleported into Alexander's bedroom, and kidnapped the young child from his own cradle. The evil wizard walked through the lands until he reached his mountain retreat, and raised the boy as his slave, and preparing to kill him on his eighteenth birthday, during a special ritual, as he had done for past slaves (only keeping a small sample of hair).

Living up on the mountain Alexander was never taught how to swim.

Alexander heals and rebuilds Daventry almost instantly using the power of the Green Orb.

In the official games, Alexander knew how to swim in KQ3, and uses his ability to swim to escape the Pirate Ship.

Alexander later becomes the king of the Green Isles, and thus is not able to become the Heir of Daventry. Connor becomes the heir and successor instead.[1]

Personality and traits

Alexander's eyes are brown, as per the eye icon, and some of his close ups.

As a young child Alexander was kidnapped by one of Castle Daventry's maids. The woman brought him to Manannan, and was killed at his hands. Manannan kidnapped the boy to be his slave, planning to kill him on his eighteenth birthday, and send the body home to this parents, to make their loss complete.

Years later, Alexander dreams of the event. This leads to Gwydion questioning his own existence. He asked Manannan about his past, and was told that the reason he lives with him, is because he wasn't wanted by his family.

After the truth is revealed, and the dragon defeated, he expresses worry to Rosella that Daventry will not accept the idea that he is their lost prince. Rosella reassures him that the family and kingdom never lost hope that he would be found.

Rosella: "Daventry has always had a prince. We just didn't know where you were."

Alexander reunites with his family where they spend some time repairing the kingdom together. When the kingdom was rebuilt they met in the castle where Graham tossed his hat to his children.

The game also places a large gap between Alexander's reunion with his lost family and Graham's tossing of the adventurer's hat.

Personality and traits

Alexander's eyes are blue in his close ups and eye icon.
