Vigilon

Alex Drake Silver was born within the USA, and his story began as a fairly pleasant one. He had a nurturing mother, Mirna Silver, a kindhearted father, Xavier Silver, and a sweet older sister, Alyssa Silver. Early childhood was something worth reminiscing to him, but otherwise it was fairly standard for the most part. Life impacting events didn’t begin for him until his middle school days.

 

When Alex was attending middle school, there were some individuals who stood out in his mind as he met them. There was a black haired boy about his age, who nicknamed him over his red eyes. It sounded like mild bullying at first, but he got used to being known by it. In fact, he managed to befriend this boy, whose name was Allen Davis. There was Tara Rubenson, who often spoke with Alex about some unusual things which he fails to recall today, until his father asked Tara to stop speaking with him. There was another male who once stood out in his mind, but at present time, he’d forgotten about this individual. Finally, there was Ayaka, the girl who seemed to like hanging out with Alex. It took some time for him to realize the girl had a crush on him, but he didn’t know if he felt the same, and just decided to treat her like a friend. Once Ayaka moved on to high school, however, he didn’t see her again.

 

 

During his time in middle school, of course, he discovered a hobby he’d take up: Gaming. He began to find pleasure, challenge, and appreciation in the artificial worlds he explored as a hero. When he had some free time, he would occasionally be outside, practicing swordplay with his intense imagination.

 

 

Middle school wouldn’t have been much else if it wasn’t for that fateful day when he was only twelve...his father...was murdered. He could’ve sworn he saw it happen, even. He wasn’t able to recognize much of the killer’s appearance, but after doing the deed, the killer let go of the knife that made the kill, and dropped the other as he fled. Alex picked up the unused blade...and was tempted to follow after the man. He took a few steps, but he realized, he just couldn’t do it. How could someone young and helpless like him be able to avenge his father with just a knife? He dropped the blade, and called the police.

 

 

His life had begun to spiral from there, and the family in general was devastated from the crime, each having other ways to handle their new reality. Alyssa changed, and was no longer with a soft, sweet external demeanor, becoming tough and harsh on the outside, only a select few knowing the true Alyssa, which she still tried to keep hidden. This was silently guessed to be some kind of coping mechanism, as believed by Alex and the two children’s mother. Alex, unlike Alyssa, simply found himself in grief, wondering if he could have changed anything, if he could have done something, rather than have been that stupid boy who just stood there in shock while it all happened… his changes would be more gradual than sudden.

 

 

Middle school continued, but there were definitely those who could see the evidence of his slow changes, especially the evidence of the state of grief he was in, as it was still fresh. Allen and Ayaka(before she left for high school) would do their best to try cheering him up, and to an extent, it kind of worked...almost. As this chapter in his life began drawing to a close, well, he wasn’t out of the woods yet…

 

 

High School. Those were some crazy years. Allen was there, though Ayaka was not. However, there were many more who had plenty of involvement with Alex. His grades were not what he’d hoped they’d be, but he couldn’t complain(Save for Math, which is Mental Abuse To Humans). To his surprise, he’d find that Alyssa attended this school, but of course, he’d need to keep himself silent about the true Alyssa if he was to stay on good terms with her… 

 

 

During his Freshman year, the students’ current social system was designed and led by local rich guy, Victor Falcon, referred to as “King Falcon” by his closest allies, by their own choice. Of course, Victor seemed to be in his senior year, and seemed to...have a crush on Alyssa? This was something Alex didn’t actually expect, primarily due to the mask of toughness Alyssa had, that was hiding her true self. During this year, Alex also met some other people, including but not limited to, four new friends: Amelia Belle, Katrina Lily, Dennis McRoy, and Thalia Fields. 

 

 

When Sophomore year arrived, everything changed once again. With Victor Falcon gone, April Darren stepped up, dominated the Social System, and made it to her own liking. It wasn’t long before most of the students knew her as “Lady April”, but there were quite a few who refused to call her such things, and the one who opposed her the most was Amelia, who seemed to believe control was all April wanted from the student body. Alex didn’t get too involved in the conflict, until he was quite literally dragged into it near the end of that year, as both were essentially telling him to pick a side, as two groups stood poised to oppose April’s system. It was apparent that this was the most opposition April ever had. Amelia led one group, believing that no one should stand on top of the social system, while Dennis was leading another group, attempting to take the social system for himself. Alex thought about this decision carefully, and chose Amelia’s side. The “battle” that took place was practically scheduled, and also organized, as well as given specialized rules(especially to make sure there were no unnecessary messes they’d have to clean up). It was a long struggle, but in the end, April’s system remained on top. Dennis, defeated, disbanded his group and found a new way to satisfy his need to “be the guy on top for once”, he became a Dungeon Master, and thus would play D&D with his fellow students, including Alex.

 

 

Alex thought the worst of the chaos and conflict was over when Junior year came, but he couldn’t have been more wrong. Alas, Amelia was still opposing April, and Amelia now had more supporters. This quickly spiraled down into what the whole school had known from then on as the “War of Pranks”, as the students would engage in a long “war” of pulling practical jokes and pranks on the opposing side’s members. Alex was asked to pick a side, and he chose Amelia’s side. When not taking action in terms of the Prank War, the interactions between Alex and April were difficult to find the right terminology for at first, with all the willingness to help each other, despite the fact that they knew how to piss each other off, those different sorts of things. Eventually, the two were able to confirm that they were frenemies. What was left of both the Junior year and the Senior year were both full of surprises from then on…

 

 

Alex didn’t think he had what it takes to bother with going to college, as he wasn’t interested in falling into a swamp of debt...though he would need to find out what he’d be doing for the future. He heard from his friends about the first ever VRMMORPG, Sword Art Online. He didn’t have much he could try to get the game, but he soon received it as a gift from his mother. It wasn’t long before he’d unwittingly get himself trapped in a new reality; A new Life, as Vigilon.

 

Vigilon is a young man who seeks to survive and protect. He is an avid gamer, so he is no stranger to most terms and references(unless he forgets them). As clever as he is, he’s still not the sharpest knife in the drawer, and is even prone to occasional blunders. He is strong willed and caring, but he’s also an introvert who can get serious, maybe even dangerous, if those who he cares about are threatened, or when other similar scenarios occur. One who knows him well enough might see him as a dragonhearted young man with a silver soul.

Strong-willed: He is a determined young man who will not let his goals go very easily, unless they prove impossible at present. Having suffered from watching murder happen, he will do what he can to prevent further murder of the innocent, even if it means killing the killer(occasionally). He is driven to survive, but also to see that others make it out alive as well. 

Clever: He is Intelligent, and a fast learner. He is quick to analyze the situation, and during a standoff, or the occasional lock, he will focus on what he knows of the opponent’s strategy/battle style. With this, he finds a way to first evade incoming attacks, then once he finds a chink in the defenses, he strikes within the opportunity. Of course, he’s no genius, however, and he can sometimes make a dumb mistake.

Caring: Both outside and inside of video games, SAO included, friends and family are  important to him.  Whether it’s another family in need, or people who have become a part of his makeshift family, he wants to help them out.  Of course, he is able to tell whether most noticeable needs are genuine or not.

Introverted: Although he doesn’t mind strength in numbers, he is more than willing to spend some time alone practicing, training, or planning what he should do next. He’s not the best in social interaction, but despite this he tries anyway during the times he’s feeling social. He actually hates emotionally hurting good people, and this can lead to somewhat shy tendencies at times...which can have various consequences.

 

Bit of a Klutz: He may be clever, and he may be strong willed, but that doesn’t change the fact that Icosahedrons aren’t the only way he can wind up with a 1 in life. He often finds himself in sticky situations from time to time, and it’s not uncommon to see him go through slips and stumbles when he’s just trying to get around. This can be surprising for people who don’t know him very well, but maybe one day, he himself might be able to get used to it.

 

Wrath:  He isn’t one to cling to his anger often, and can be mildly provoked with little consequence, but if he gets pushed to a point that crosses the line, someone’s in for it. When the line is crossed, his mind becomes focused on the fall of his foe, and the destruction of anything else that is a confirmed threat. He is much less talkative when in this state, and one can tell if he has hit the breaking point just by looking at his eyes.
