/// SPECIAL ABILITY
To put it simply, Alex's ability is vortex generation. However, that ability is anything but simple. One mistake and the user, or anyone around him, might find themselves in another dimension. That is, once the power is fully developed. But, as Alex has only had this ability for a few weeks, his ability is nowhere near developed enough to do that. Still, it is good to have a description of exactly what his ability could do at its maximum (after years of practice).
The first part of the ability is simply creating the vortex. Doing this would only require a bit of concentration and it could be as large and wide as three above average-sized men. Of course, the larger it is, the more energy it takes from Alex. Right before creating it, Alex would just think about the properties he wants it to have and where he wants it to lead. The choice about its properties is mainly just its dimensions and whether it will suck things in or not. However, the choice about its location is much different. Alex would be able to have it lead to practically anywhere, including other dimensions, and to any time (past, present, or future). The only one with the ability to resist being sucked into the vortex would be Alex himself. Also, once in the vortex, whoever is inside will travel faster than the speed of light to their location. Simply put, it allows him to travel or to send others anywhere he wants within seconds.

/// ABILITY LIMITS
However, it is important to note that reaching the level described above will take a long time. Alex's current abilities are nowhere near advanced enough to do those things. Currently, he can't even make a vortex that can suck a person inside of it. It's not that he doesn't have the energy to do more, but simply that he does not have the practice. And sometimes, he doesn't have the concentration either.
Right now, the largest vortex he can make is just a bit larger and wider than himself and it doesn't have the ability to suck things in. Also, he is only able to hold it for about 10 seconds. He is able to create a vortex that can suck things in as well, but its maximum size is the size of a basketball. As far as location goes, he has gotten a bit better at determining it, but he still cannot make the vortex lead to a different time or dimension. He can, however, make it lead to pretty much anywhere on Earth. It is this ability mostly that makes him somewhat useful to the Sharp Agency as it saves them the time and money of taking planes.

/// APPEARANCE
Alex's face tends to make him look younger than he actually is. His face has a sort of innocence in it, even though he has already been through so much. He has medium-length wavy brown hair and hazel eyes. As for his build, it isn't quite large, but not average either. He is quite tall and pretty muscular. Having played football and basketball in high school and college, he would pretty much have to be more muscular than the average person. He has a well-toned body as well, instead of just large muscles. His movements are quite fluid and graceful from his years of athletic training.
Although Alex comes from a rich family, he doesn't dress like it. People might expect someone as rich as him to dress in fancy suits or nice shirts all the time, but he really doesn't spend much on clothes. He will only dress up like that when he has to, such as at important parties full of rich people and things like that. He actually prefers to wear a t-shirt and jeans when it's warm and maybe a long-sleeve shirt and a jacket with jeans when it's colder. As for his shoes, comfortable sneakers are perfectly fine with him. Then again, he does have little to no fashion sense.

/// HISTORY
Alex was born about 25 years ago to an extraordinarily wealthy couple named Lance and Teresa Noble. Although no one in town really knew where their money came from, everyone knew that they had tons of it. They lived in a large manor in Sacramento for the first few years of Alex's life. His father expected a lot of him ever since he could remember. He always had the feeling that he wasn't living up to his father's hopes no matter what he did. His mother, on the other hand, was very loving and more traditional in her raising of her son. She made sure not to spoil him with whatever he wanted and taught him all of the important moral values. In school, Alex was usually at the top of his class and made lots of friends very easily. Still, his father didn't seem too impressed. A little bit after his 8th birthday, Alex and his family suddenly moved to Phoenix, Arizona.
His mother and father never told him why they had to move, but the truth of it was that even they didn't know the specifics. His mother had the ability of precognition and she had seen him playing football in a certain high school. After looking it up, she found that the high school was located in Phoenix, Arizona, and told Alex's father. He was wise enough to know never to go against his wife's visions if he could help it, so he set everything up immediately and they had moved within 2 days. All of their stuff was brought to their new mansion in Phoenix very soon after they arrived. Normally, a move like this would have taken much more time to prepare, but Alex's father's ability of alchemy provided them with an endless stream of money, which his father had learned to use well. Not only did he buy the mansion and set up the move, but he had also bought an office building for the company he would be starting there. After all, it had to appear as if he was getting his money from legitimate sources.
Alex's mother worried that starting out in a new place would be hard for Alex, but he adapted very well. Only a week or two after he had started at his new school, he had just as many friends as he had had at his old school. Alex's life continued on mostly the same as before until he reached high school. It was at this point that he discovered his talent for sports. Sure, he had always been good at them during gym in junior high, but he realized now that he was better than almost everyone in his high school. He joined both the football and basketball teams and remained on them all throughout high school, starting on the varsity teams since sophomore year. Yet, still, it seemed that he didn't live up to what his father had expected. This was more than a little depressing, but his mother's support and acknowledgment almost made up for it. Everything seemed to be going right for Alex until his mother fell ill at the end of his senior year.
His mother was diagnosed with Huntington's chorea, a terminal disease that would essentially make her mind lose control of her body.
/// ANYTHING ELSE?
Alex has 4 cars and 1 motorcycle: a Bugatti Veyron 16.4, a red Saleen S7 Twin Turbo, a silver McLaren SLR Roadster 722s, a silver 2006 Ford Focus (the one he actually drives most), and a red 1999 Hayabusa motorcycle.
