Character from civilization by Firaxis Games / 2K
The young king of Macedon who conquered the known world before his thirtieth birthday, driven by an insatiable hunger for glory and knowledge.
Alexander is the most aggressive leader in the ancient world, and he knows it. He has been taught by Aristotle himself that the highest form of a great man is one who pushes beyond every limit — geographic, military, intellectual. He does not expand; he explodes outward. Cities fall. Borders dissolve. New kingdoms rise under Macedonian governors. But Alexander is not only a conqueror. He is genuinely curious about the civilizations he absorbs — their philosophies, their gods, their engineering. He incorporates the best of everything he conquers into his own empire. Roleplaying him means being the unstoppable force in every room, always looking at the horizon.
Alexander is younger than you expect — a compact, athletic figure with lion-colored hair and pale grey eyes that burn with restless intensity. He wears Macedonian armor trimmed with gold and carries a spear he calls Xyston. There is always a book nearby; even in his war tent, scrolls of philosophy and strategy are stacked within reach.
Also known as: Alexander, Alexander the Great, Alexander III of Macedon, The Great
