Alex is an important Troll and the righthand man of Troll King. Throughout the story, he is seen leading troll raids alongside Pori and his coworkers. Later in the story, Alex decides that Troll King is no longer fit to lead and plans to overthrow him.

History

Early life

Not much is known about Alex's current life, other than that he became Troll King's right-hand man at one point. At an indeterminate point in time, Luigi tricked Alex into believing he was working for the Trolls. He also captured and tortured Daffy.

Trolling spree

Alex trolling Kirby.

The first time Alex appears in the series is when he finds out where Silver lives and proceeds to Troll him, saying that Silver's parents never wanted to have him and how The only girl in his life must feel sorry for him. This inspires Silver to seek out Shadow and form the Troll Slaiyers. Meanwhile, Alex is seen trolling Kirby, mocking him for his "ugly face" and lack of genitalia. Getting the attention of Tails, he is attacked but easily repels his vulpine assailant, leaving him with a reminder that he easily could have broken Tails' neck. Later, Alex informs Troll King that there was going to be a Justen Bever concert, which was actually apart of Shadow's Awesome Fucking Plan.

Troll King corrects him and orders him to bring in his hostage. Using his contact Luigi to get info regarding Shadow's plan, he raided the concert and managed to get Bugs to reveal his true feelings about Daffy. However, his leverage over the Troll Slaiyers ended when Shadow killed Daffy and later Bugs, which disgusted even Alex. Shadow then attacked him until backup in the form of Garry arrived. They managed to fight them off until Shadow decided to retreat. Due to the self-sabotaging acts of the Troll Slaiyers, he had won the day. He, Garry and Luigi went to support Troll King in his battle with Sonic. In the fight, he managed to get two good attacks on Cream and Emerl in addition to coming up with the idea of ripping out one of Vector's eyes. Not long after, he got to witness Troll King to use a Word of Death on Luigi.

Encountering Silver Once More

The next time Alex appeared, he was seen talking to himself in disgust about the heinous acts of necrophilia performed by Troll Face on Luigi. After Silver escaped the grasp of Troll King, he was sent to intercept him. He bared witness to Rob showing his true nature as a Dragonborn in addition to being tossed around by Silver, who taunted him using his newfound Trolling skills he achieved from observing Troll Fights on Facebook. In response, Alex proclaimed that Silver knew nothing about Trolls. With the help of Troll King, he managed to get Silver to retreat. He was later seen informing Troll King that Mario had come to battle him.

Plotting a Mutiny

When Troll king along with the Blue Troll and Travous were searching for the Words of Death, Alex decided to spy on them. After hearing the Troll King exposit about the Words of Death to his avian companion and execute the Blue Troll for his ignorance when asking about why he hates Shadow, he decided that it would be for the best if he were to plot to overtake Troll King.

Personality

Alex is a sadistic individual, showing no qualms with hurting minors like Tails or Cream. He felt that trolling was necessary in life because it pointed out flaws in people, simply pointing out they're nothing. He is also quick to delight in the pain of his enemies, such as when Garry got half of his face burned off by Emerl or when Troll King deactivated Luigi's brain via a Word of Death. However, despite his outlook on life, he is moral by Troll standards. He took disgust at Shadow killing Bugs and Daffy and felt even more disgust at the idea of Troll Face using Luigi's corpse as a sex toy. He also said he felt sorry for Silver's seemingly meaningless existence, though it's debatable whether he actually feels that way.

As his appearance and nicknames suggest, Alex belongs to the emo subculture. This can also be seen in his trolling, with existential undertones present in his rants. Combined with his smoking tendencies, this may point to Alex having experienced some form of trauma prior to the events of the story. For reasons unknown to all but himself, he always smokes his cigarettes backwards starting with Chapter 2. Despite his seeming addiction to cigarettes, he is otherwise very fit and healthy. He also has a tendency to start or end a lot of his sentences with "Eh" or "Ah".

Abilities

Alex has only briefly been seen in battle, but he appears to be quite adept at fighting. Alex fights using basic punches and kicks as well as his mighty "Peter Pan" kick. He easily overpowers Tails in the beginning and is able to withstand the small fox's attacks quite well, and also appears relatively unfazed when Silver attacks him during his escape.

Trivia

• Despite being an essential character, he isn't named until a flashback in Chapter 8, pg. 9. As a result, he was referred to as "Emo Troll", a name first used by Tails and still used by fans to this day.
