He grew up with little friends until he entered college. He found himself to be an introvert, and was not very sociable with other people. He had no siblings, as his mother died of winter fever months after his birth. His father was a hard working man who barely supported both of them.

Alexander studied for an Associates Degree in Philosophy and Literature at the St. Richards College in Satan City for 2 years from 921 to 923. After such, he worked on a farm for 6 years to gain enough money to reenter college.
