*best doll I have so far*

Personality: Alex is very down to Earth and takes any job she has seriously, giving 100% effort everytime. Her serious face can be intimidating until you talk to her, then you'll see she is infact a warm, affectionate person. When upset she tends to make jokes and when she does, she has a dry, sometimes cynical sense of humor, that occasionally offends some. Reguards most people with caution but will loosen up after seeing no imeadiate threat. Does not like her authority disrespected, believes in justice and is a firm enforcer of rules she deems fair, unfair rules she likes to see broken (and occasionally break them herself)

History: A dedicated student, Alex Pierce never really had time for playing things like Quidditch and other activities her house mates thought worth their time. Sometimes indulging in a game of Gobstones or Exploding Snap, Alex could usually be found in the library researching an interesting potion or spell. Named Gryffindor prefect in her 5th year, Alex was a top contender for the Head Girl posistion until the end of her 6th year when her grades fell slightly due to the death of her father. After graduating, and alot of studying, Alex became an Unspeakable and met her husband Robert, an experimental potion maker for the Ministry. They married young and had two children Samuel and Caroline. Robert died after 12 years of their marriage, devistating the whole family. Alex did her best to raise her children on her own and while Samuel grew to be a great help around the house, Caroline rebeled, eventually estranging herself from her mother and moving to Italy.

Alex cant help but feeling critical towards the current Minister of Magic. She was very happy under his predecessor and when Cooper took office, he cut funding, and when she complained, passed Alex over for many promotions and cut back her pension. Not only was she resentful for all the personal actions against her, Alex disagrees with most of the Minister's descisions as well as his personal motives. She believes he sticks his nose in where he doesnt belong and all most all his motives are self serving in some way or another.

After retiring from her job six years ago, Samuel, who worked in the Transportation branch of the Ministry of magic, met with an accident and was sent to St Mungo's for several months, he is still trying to get well enough to get back to work. Alex paid for as much of his medical bills as she could with her retirement money and a loan from Gringotts. Alex was forced to look for another job due to the outstanding medical bills, so she applied and was hired for the Transfiguration teaching posistion at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

When Cooper put his "Cooper's School for Wizards" and Belle's School for Witches" plan into effect, Alex strongly objected which resulted in the Minister doing away with her pension all together.
