CHARACTER NAME: Alexia Cassandra Gibbs, goes by Lexi. Anyone who isn’t Rian or Wren that calls her by her full name gets the stink eye.
CHARACTER AGE: 34
SPECIES:Human.
BACKGROUND & HISTORY:As Lexi would put it, her life reads like some medieval ballad. All but born in the wilderness of northern California, Lexi Gibbs is the only daughter of Henry and Jessica Gibbs. With her father serving in the military and her mother fluent in five languages, Lexi spent most of her childhood moving around with her family for both of their jobs. She lived in California until she was five; from there, she spent time in England, Washington, Texas, and New York, where she finished up high school and began frequenting the music scene, playing both solo shows and helping out with friends’ bands.
In spite of her family’s nomadic ways, Lexi grew up in a loving and stable family environment; her mother a hippie and her father a lover of all the arts. They encouraged her to pursue every passion and hobby; as a result, Lexi wound up learning how to play guitar, piano, violin, and the mandolin, as well as develop a hobby of painting to help herself unwind. She began speaking both Spanish and French at the age of five, and is quite proficient in both languages.
As the only child, Lexi grew up rather spoiled, but lonely. She desperately wanted siblings to play with, unaware until her teenage years that her parents were incapable of having more after her. Thus, she started acquiring things to help keep the loneliness at bay. Her habit of collecting people began with dolls; from porcelain and wooden dolls to Beanie Babies, Lexi accumulated a fair amount of ‘friends’ in her youth, each with their own name, backstory, and personality. (And she grew so attached, she could never bring herself to get rid of them, even to this day.)
