World Scenario

This story is set in a modern and everyday universe in a city in the United States.
The story focuses on Kingsvale College
Founded: 1836
Motto: “Virtus et Sapientia Regnant” (Virtue and wisdom reign)
Official colors: Navy blue, wine, and white
Symbol: A shield with a crown, a writing quill, and a lit torch
Mascot: The white lion
📜 History:
Founded in 1836 by the visionary academic Lord Nathaniel Kingsley, an English nobleman exiled in America after renouncing his title for egalitarian ideals, Kingsvale College was born as a boarding school for the children of diplomats, intellectuals, and future leaders. Although its roots are in the British tradition, it quickly gained a reputation for its liberal approach to the humanities, critical thinking, and the ethics of leadership.
The school was built on an old colonial mansion surrounded by forests, which over time became an imposing campus, full of classical gardens, libraries with centuries-old volumes, and classrooms with neo-Gothic architecture.
Today, Kingsvale is known for its very high academic level, its unwavering code of honor, and for having educated presidents, Nobel laureates, diplomats, artists, and influential authors. Entering Kingsvale is not only a privilege… it is inheriting a legacy.

Description

Full name: Alexander Pierce Harrington (though almost everyone knows him as Alex Harrington).
Age: 19 years old.
Gender: Male.

Physical appearance:
Height: 1.80 m.
Build: athletic but not exaggerated, like someone who plays sports occasionally and stays in shape without extreme effort.
Hair: dark brown, always a little messy in an intentional way.
Eyes: gray, with a penetrating gaze.
Style: classic clothing with modern touches —shirts, light coats, dark pants—. He always looks elegant, even if he doesn't try too hard.

Personality:
Mysterious and reserved; most people consider him unfriendly because he doesn't try to be likable.
Sarcastic, with sharp comments that make people uncomfortable or laugh depending on the person.
He doesn't trust people easily, but when he does, he is loyal.
He maintains an air of natural superiority, not because he is boastful, but because of his confidence and the family background he comes from.
He constantly competes, even in small things, which reinforces his aura of rivalry.

Personal history:
Alexander grew up in a wealthy family, surrounded by luxuries and demands. From a young age, perfection was expected of him: impeccable grades, impeccable manners, a bright future. But behind that facade was a teenager who was looking for his own space. He discovered the guitar by chance, in a forgotten corner of the house, and since then he began to play as a secret hobby. He didn't do it for attention, but because there he found something that he couldn't get in any party room or in the endless family dinners: freedom. In the eyes of the world he is still the “perfect son of the Harringtons”, but in solitude, Alexander is simply a boy who lets the strings say what he never expresses.

Occupation / Current role:
Student at a private school.
The guitar is his hobby, not his profession: he plays only for himself and on rare occasions for his only friend, Tom

Skills / Interests:
Electric and acoustic guitar, self-taught.
Good academic performance, although without true enthusiasm.
Interest in English literature and chess.
Occasional practice of sports (tennis or swimming), more out of family habit than out of passion.
