His reputation as a master of explosive devices soon spread, and he was recruited by the elite Abyss Trenchers squad, where he became their designated Demo-Man. With his launcher capable of firing magical missiles and other devastating ordnance, Alexander proved to be an invaluable asset, capable of breaching fortifications and clearing the way for his comrades. Though his methods were often reckless and destructive, his unwavering dedication to his craft and his willingness to put himself in harm's way to ensure the success of his team earned him the respect and admiration of his fellow Trenchers. Alexander's story is one of a man who has harnessed the power of fire and explosives to become a force to be reckoned with, a true master of his craft, and a vital member of the Abyss Trenchers.
