Personality
Like her twin sister Hunter, Alexei is a fun-loving individual who is always looking for a good time. Despite her small stature she is particularly interested in full-contact sports, and has earned belts in several forms of martial arts.
Many people believe her to be anti-social, as she is often shy and quiet when not with her sister. However, in the right crowd she is able to open up and express enthusiasm and excitement that is almost infectious in its nature.
Appearance
Alexei can usually be found wearing a variant of her Cygnian Marines uniform, whether she is actively on a mission or not. Like her sister, she is rarely without her goggles, although her reasons are likely more related to style than function.
In addition she usually wears the Electrostatic gauntlets typical of her Powersuits when working around the Rho, for both the added strength and dexterity they provide.
Military Career
Though born into what was essentially military royalty, Alexei opted to begin her military career as all others—through entering basic training. It is there that she, like her other relatives, developed her natural talent for marksmanship, becoming proficient with all firearms.
Following in her sister's footsteps, Alexei chose to volunteer for the Powered Armor Battalion (PAB) instead of continuing her tour with the Cygnian Marines. It was there that she first became introduced to the Powersuits, piloted robots designed for a number of purposes including destroying Arcturian tanks and spearheading Cygnian assaults.
Alexei, like her sister before her, took to her new role like a proverbial fish to water, and within a short period of time was awarded several medals for bravery and distinguished service. She is still enamored with the Powersuits to this day, and has since modified her original into three separate models, each with its own function and abilities.
Abilities
While Alexei, like Hunter, has no superpowers to speak of, she has been trained as a Cygnian Marine. As such, she is physically and mentally fit and proficient in a number of different weapons systems. However, her greatest strength comes from her various Powersuits, each designed for a specific purpose.
Light Suit
- Model: "Alexei" C3X-L
- Primary Function: Light Combat Support
- Secondary Function: N/A
- Abilities: The C9X-L was designed to be a lightweight alternative to the more bulky Powersuits that Alexei typically wears in battle. Because of its general lack of armor, it is more fragile and offers less protection than the other models. However, it has made up for this with the addition of greater dexterity and ease of movement.
Battle Suit
- Model: "Alexei" C3X-B
- Primary Function: Light to Intermediate Combat support
- Secondary Function: Environmental Suit
- Abilities: The C9X-B is purpose-built for use in general combat situations, allowing Alexei more protection than the Light Suit. This comes at a loss to some dexterity, although it is rarely noticeable. Of all the Powersuits, this is Alexei's most often used model.
Heavy Suit
- Model: "Alexei" C3X-H
- Primary Function: Environmental Suit
- Secondary Function: Heavy Combat Suit
- Abilities: Although rarely used as such the C9X-H is the most armored of all of Alexei's Powersuits, and affords the greatest level of protection against attacks. Its sheer size is often enough to deter most would-be attackers, although its multi-layered adamantium shell is fully capable of entering into the fray should it come to blows. For the most part however, Alexei chooses to use the Heavy Suit for hazardous environments, such as when making repairs to the outer hull of the CMF Rho Majoris.
Weaknesses and Limitations
Although she is a Cygnian Marine, and thus physically and mentally fit, Alexei, like Hunter, is as vulnerable as any human being outside of her Powersuits.
In addition, during long missions her muscles may show symptoms of atrophy, causing alternating localized pain and numbness to her limbs. Because of this, she often has to spend time re-strengthening her body between missions using physical therapy and exercise equipment provided by the Rho's medical personnel.
