Alot of his body mass is muscle, but he is toned and defined giving him quick movement speed unlike his bulkier, muscular comrades. Wears a a black, waist length jacket with the Brotherhood symbol on the back in respect of his fallen brothers. One katana sheath goes across his back waist and the other diagonally across his back. He wears black cargo pants with the ends tucked into his combat boots.
Personality: Alder is a wise yet ruthless character. Learning from years at Ozpin's side, Alder has learned to be more of a guiding and advice filled leader then your average bull headed army genrels.
History: Alder grew up in a city far to the west. He was left outside the Brotherhood's Dojo at the age of 5 months, the Brotherhood's leader, Darius took him. Unknowing of his second name, Darius gave him his second name 'Kovic'. It was here he would learn to hone his sword skills and his accuracy. Growing up Alder became close friends with a boy similar to his age, his name was Rugadh. Rugadh would play a massive part in how Alder's life would shape. At the age of 12 the Brotherhood was attacked at their Dojo by a unknown faction. When the attack started Alder looked for Rugadh but could not find him, he proceeded to look Darius. Finally reaching Darius room Alder opened the door, inside he witnessed Rugadh driving his favoured weapon, Ivory through Darius's chest killing him. Witnessing this act, something snapped inside Alder, he felt a red haze wash over him. He let his aura take over him and in a blind, mad rage Alder beat Rugadh within an inch of his life, only to let him live because of the love he has for his ex-breather. After that life changing moment, Alder fleed the Dojo. He wandered the city for days trying to keep low, he had heard that the unknown gang were looking for Brotherhood stragglers. He did not do a very a good job of keeping as he was spotted by three of the gang's members. Cornering him in a park, Alder was to weak to fight and accepted his fate but remembered the Brotherhood's number one rule 'Go down fighting'. He was quickly disarmed a day thrown to the ground. Ready to be exacuted, Ozpin and Glinda stepped in and saved Alder. Ozpin had never seen such heart and determination in such a young boy. He realised that if nurtured and trained carefully, Alder could become one the deadliest hunters the world had seen. Ozpin brought Alder back to Beacon with him and intryhim to his new home. In a new environment, Alder learned many new traits but kept his old one with him. (Sorry for any spelling mistakes/ bad punctuation)
Strength: Training form the Brotherhood has taught him to be brutal and unforgiving and training from Beacon has taught him to be smart and tactical.Alder's aura is unlike many others. It gives him immense strength but drives him into a rage. It takes a heinous act for his aura to snap into to full power e.g Darius's death. Since that day, Alder has learned to controlled it in small bursts afraid to use it in large bursts incase he let's it all out and hurts someone he cares about.
Weakness: Finds it hard to trust people as much as he did with Rugadh and will put them first in most situations. Afraid to use aura to full potential incase he's injures someone he cares about.
WEAPON
Name: Sé and Cúig
Primary Form: Sé and Cúig are two katanas made from the finest steel in the west. Both have Multi Dust Revolver Mechanisms(MDRM) in the hilt. These can slightly up the melee capability but are more used in the secondary form
Secondary Form/Function: When targets are out of melee range get, Sé and Cúig can be joined at the hilt to form a compound bow. Two locking mechanisms emerge from the hilt, locking the two katanas together. This also gives it the capability to be used as a double ended sword. When forming the bow a string is formed by dust in the white section of the MDRM. The other four sections of the MDRM is used for different arrow types e.g fire, ice etc.
History: Sé and Cúig were avarge katanas before Beacon. At the age of five, Darius
asked Alder and Rugadh what there weapons would be. They both decided on duel katanas. Darius had the best blacksmith in the city forge them using the best steel. It was then at Beacon, Ozpin introduced Alder to Dust. Here, Alder infused both katanas with Dust giving them their second form
