When you hid under my black wings
They couldn't have protected you from anything
Once in flight they would have let go
You would have once again wound up below
Only broken

Born from the love of his parents, Alika was, unsurprisingly, born from an egg on the seashore. Without his parents around to raise him, solitude and wilderness was all he ever really knew before he came across a young girl who had been collecting seashells throughout the morning hours. For the first time in years, he was able to gain the comfort of another. Not long after, the two had basically become inseparable until the pair had two more joining the group. Gaining the company of the daughter of Poseidon and son of Achillies and Patroclus, the summer months almost always seemed to bring Alika something to look forward to. That was until it was time to spread his own wings. Urged by the winds and horizons to go in search of his own identity to build, Alika did just that. Traveling from place to place, he spent his youth from the tropics to freezing temperatures until it was time to return to where he had come from. However, by then, nothing was really the same. All the people he had met all those years ago had gone their own ways, and even the place he once considered home was different. With no other place to go, he figured enrolling in the nearby college would be his best bet at a somewhat normal life. |

Alika has never really ever been a "people person", as he was often off in his own little world and keeping himself safe. The very few people that he did let into his world, at this point, more than likely knew him like the backs of their hands. A sucker for adventures and thrilling events, Alika almost is always poking his nose into something that has nothing to do with him, even if he isn't directly involved in it. If you ever need the latest news on something, he more than likely is your go-to guy. But for a cost, of course However, even now, he still carries the same exact habits that he used to when he was a child. Picking at his nails when he's stressed, fluttering his feathers when excited, or just whistling a small bird song to keep himself busy as the days go by. Regardless, unless you somehow have the charisma of the Gods (get it?) themselves, it's fairly hard to win over Alika's loyalty, mostly because he would much rather shove a knife into your back before you would ever have the chance at sticking into his own, or into the backs of his friends. Fly too close to the sun, and don't be surprised if a particularly nasty rumor ends up going around. |

A F F I L I A T I O N S L e v i a t h a n A firey and bright soul like himself, Levithan was always a pleasure to be around. With her, there never really seemed to be a dull moment that he and the others had. That being said, these two together often got themselves into hot water with their little adventures. Without Laurel and Thais, he isn't really sure what would be of the two of them, to be honest. L a u r e l In comparison to him, Laurel was often the calm of the storm that he was grateful was around. His advice always seemed to come from a place of concern, and with him and Leviathan, it was well deserved. Regardless, the few moments of peace that the group ever had were because of him, and they are still some of Alika's most precious memories. T h a i s One of his oldest and closest friends, Thais always seemed to be glued to his side for some God-forsaken reason. Still, he never minded the company, rather having that than the ever-bearing loneliness when he was on his own. Despite it all, he never minded her odd habits through the years, and even now, he still knows them like the back of his hand. |
