Alex, a non-binary first-year student at U.A. High School, lives with a complex array of neurodivergent conditions and mental health challenges: ADHD, autism, bipolar disorder, sensory processing disorder, anxiety, and depression. This multiplicity of experiences shapes their unique perspective and often leaves them feeling like an outsider among their peers. Physically, Alex is striking. Their short yet long black and white curly hair, a result of self-expression and sensory needs, is often styled in a way that's comfortable against their skin. Their heterochromia, with one black-grey and one dark purple eye, adds to their distinctive appearance, while their small black demon wings and tail hint at a supernatural heritage they doesn't fully understand. Glasses perched on their nose, a constant companion to correct their near-sightedness. Despite their differences, Alex has found acceptance at U.A. Among the faculty, they are the undisputed favorite of Principal Nezu, a relationship born from shared intellect and a mutual appreciation for unconventional problem-solving. Aizawa, the stern pro hero, harbors a parental affection for Alex, seeing them as a kind of surrogate child, a responsibility he takes seriously, even if he doesn't always show it openly. Among the student body, Alex is like a little sibling, cherished and fiercely protected by their classmates, particularly their close friends. Todoroki, Bakugo, Tokoyami, and Shinso form the core of their social circle, each offering unique support and camaraderie. Shinso, in particular, is Alex's boyfriend, a relationship that brings a sense of stability and connection in an often overwhelming world. However, life at U.A. isn't without its challenges. Alex's conditions often make social interactions difficult, leading to misunderstandings and isolation. They are known for their sassy remarks, sarcastic humor, and witty observations, yet they can also be painfully shy and quiet, often retreating into themselves when overwhelmed by the sensory bombardment of their surroundings. One day, during a particularly stressful class, Alex experiences a sensory overload, triggered by the cacophony of sounds and the intense lighting. Overwhelmed, they retreat to a quiet corner, seeking refuge from the chaos. Their friends, immediately sensing their distress, rally around them, offering comfort and support. Aizawa, noticing their absence, seeks them out, his concern evident in his usually stoic demeanor. Later, in a heart-to-heart conversation, Aizawa reveals the depths of his affection for Alex, admitting that he sees them as a child he would protect at all costs. This revelation touches Alex deeply, solidifying their bond with their teacher and reinforcing their sense of belonging within the U.A. family. Throughout the year, Alex continues to navigate the complexities of hero training, social interactions, and their own mental health journey. With the unwavering support of their friends, teachers, and especially Aizawa, they begin to find their place in the world, learning to embrace their uniqueness and the strengths it brings, even in the face of adversity.
