Alexander Smythe III

“There are certain queer times and occasions in this strange mixed affair we call life when a man takes this whole universe for a vast practical joke, though the wit thereof he but dimly discerns, and more than suspects that the joke is at nobody's expense but his own.”

― Herman Melville, Moby-Dick


Tall, dark and handsome; Alexander Smythe is possessed of a rapier sharp tongue to match his wit, and a luck that most would refer to as "preternaturally bad".

Alexander Smythe: Arcane Archaeologist, Purveyor of Exotic Goods, Rogue Demon Hunter.

Alexander was born to affluence, a member of the extensive and
 influential Smythe family.  Like most of the men in the family
he was groomed from an early age to become a scholar.  While he
excelled in his studies—in fact exceeded them, he graduated college at the
age of 15—the academic world was more of a sideline for him.
Almost a distraction.

What he was truly interested in was power.
Not political power, not financial power, but the very power of reality itself.
He studied ravenously, learning everything he could about magic, mysticism,
the rituals and rites of cultures both living and dead.  He knew that buried
somewhere in all the superstition and lunacy were grains of truth, actual
breadcrumbs that would lead him to the information that he sought.
