History/Background Story: Alastor was born to a large family of 4 boys and 2 girls. Along with them and his parents, he lived a nice life for a time. Soon however, tragedy struck. A plauge hit his hometown, wiping out most of his family. In the end all that were left were he and his 2 older brothers, Seth and Andre. They treated him well, showing him the skills that he needed to survive on his own. By this point Alastor was roughly 8 years old.

Alastor and his brothers lived alone for roughly 3 years before leaving home. The road was long and hard, and by the time they reached the State Alchemists, Seth was dead and Andre was very sick. Soon after being taken in by the State Alchemists, Andre died from what was beleived to be pneumonia. By now Alastor was about 13. So began his life with the state alchemists.

Alastor was now completely alone. All of his family was dead. Although the alchemists accepted him, he would never be the same since he would never know a family again. It was during this period Alastor discovered his interest in Alchemy. He watched the State Alchemists training and made a decision that would change his life. He decided to take up alchemy as a study.

He had begun his training as an alchemist at an early age, around 4 years of age, since his entire family before him had been alchemists. Finally, he had become an alchemist. He was strong in lightning in alchemy to begin with and so he honed his skills, moving quickly through his studies. He also specialized in a special type of weapon passed down through his family: The chains of fate and dissention; chains of terrible power that are summoned through a special type of alchemy used by his family. By the end of his training he was 19 years old. Since that time he has been attempting to join the State Alchemists, and that quest has stretched down to today.
