Character.
Name: Alex Kamal Canon: The Expanse (TV series mostly.) Canon Point: In the series they are inside the ring and the protomolocule have just reduced the speed it allows people to travel at. Alex was knocked unconscious by it. CRAU Timeline/Game(s): N/A
World Description:N/A Character History:wiki here CRAU History: N/A
Personality: Alex was someone who didn't want to settle on Mars and dedicate his life to the terraforming project the way Martians are supposed to do, instead he became a pilot. For twenty years he served in the Martian military as a transport pilot and he left with a honorable discharge. But he couldn't settle when he was back on Mars, all he could think about was being a pilot. So he went back out and eventually ended up on the Roci. Flying a battle ship was a dream of his and as he gets used to her it is clear that he loves the ship. He is getting really into the adrenaline of a good fight. He struggles with the knowledge that he should have been a better father and husband to his son and wife and the fact that he views the family he has on the Roci as more of his family than them.
With the team of the Roci, Alex is in many ways the one that reminds them they are a family. He makes food, sharing of his martian traditions and worries about them when they are away. I believe he is also the first one on the show to use the term family about the group. He tries to be a mediator, talking things down when tempers starts to run wild, or reminding Holden (the captain) of the larger picture when he gets too focused on one thing. With that he also blames himself when something goes wrong on a mission, like the time he wasn't able to use the Roci to defend a landing team and 25 men died.
Alex talks a lot, often sometimes it seems like it is just to hear himself talk. He is comfortable in the middle of a crowd, bragging about something they've done. He is also shown not to be faithful, flirting even while wearing a wedding ring.
CRAU Development:N/A
Powers/Abilities: Human. Really good as a spaceship pilot and a good cook but it is all human stuff. Inventory:His uniform from the Roci including a pair of magnetic boots for use in 0G. His datapad. A picture of his wife and son.
Anything Else? I will not be able to make any revisions until Tuesday 6/11 due to being away all weekend on a workshop

Network Sample: [Alex is in his pilot seat at the Rocinante, getting ready to take off from the small moon as soon as all the refugees are settled when he opens the comms to speak to everyone on board.]
Welcome on board the warship Rocinante, boys and girls. We will be taking of in a few minutes, setting a steady course for Tycho station. As you are all aware we will be checking for any illnesses as you get settled, the med bay is open if anyone feels any all sick.
[He gives a nod and then shuts off the feed. He looks over the feeds showing the people coming on board the ship. The pilot frowns and then he opens the crew's private channel.] Amos, Jim, see those two guys over by the crates? I recognize one of them from back when I was in the MCRN. The tall guy. He's one of Mars' most wanted. Terroist, not OPA. We might not want to bring him on board. Also I am pretty sure I saw a gun on him.
