Name: Alexandre Anctille - Fosterling of Cereus House, Apprentice of the Priesthood of Naamah, Adept of Heliotrope House
Race: D'Angeline
Gender: Male
Age: 21
Apperance: Ironically, Alexandre's appearance fits more into the canon of the First among the Thirteen Houses of the Court of Night-Blooming Flowers. With his white blond hair and smooth, soft features, he is possessed of a subtle boyish beauty. Piercing blue eyes are his most noticeable feature, as some of his patrons have said they alone are enough to make anyone bare out their soul to him and their love in the bargain.
History: Born to an adept of Cereus House and a father who served in the Royal Army, it was no surprise that Alexandre fit the house canon perfectly. Reared wholely within the First House, he was dedicated at the age of ten unto the service of Naamah. After only two more years of trainning within the house, it became rumoured throughout the Night Court that he was capable of making anyone feel love to the utmost degree: a form of pure and singular love in which the rest of the world does not seem to exist.
Once this rumor spread like wildfire throughout the Night Court, the Dowayne of Heliotrophe herself could not resist an investigation into the matter. Finding that he was equally matched to the motto of Heliotrophe as he was the canon of Cereus, Alexandre was faced with a decision. The Dowayne of Heliotrophe offered Cereus House an exchange. Alexandre would be reared at Cereus but then become an adept of Heliotrophe upon his sixteenth birthday. Such a thing was absolutely unheard of within the Night Court, and Cereus declined the offer. Outraged Heliotrophe attempted to buy Alexandre instead, knowing full well that his gift of love was beyond anything they could teach to even their own adepts.
As the subtle war raged between the two houses, Alexandre came to a decision on his own. Figuring that neither house had his best interests in heart, he petitioned the Order of the Servants of Naamah to allow him to join the ranks of Her priests. They accepted and at the age of thirteen, he began yet another stage of training in his life.
Though most priests and priestesses of Naamah are initiated around a much younger age and train well into their teens, Alexandre was a quick learner when it came to Her ways. After only five years of study, he became an apprentice and once again decided to change the path of his life. Instead of accepting a posting within one of Naamah's traditional temples, he requested a posting at Heliotrophe House. There he found he fit in perfectly and eventually the Dowayne offered him adept status within the house as well.
With an impromptu education in the house's ways, he took his first assignation at the age of twenty one. The Jebean Ambassador and her D'Angeline counterpart proved not only to be his first assignation, but his only one before he made his complete marquee. So delighted and awed by the strange customs of Naamah and of D'Angeline love, the Ambassador presented Alexandre with such a volumous patron-gift that the Marquist was able to limb more than half of his marquee in the first sitting alone. Apparently, the Ambassador was far impressed not only by the perfection of his art but by the undivided affection and passion with which he preformed it.
Since then the Dowaynes of Heliotrophe and Cereus has saw fit to assign Alexandre to whatever foreign dignitaries that come the Night Court's way. Trained as he is by the Priesthood of Naamah, Cereus House and Heliotrope, it is small wonder.
