Hello, Albert Aldein.
» Is there anything you would rather be called?
"Well, I'd prefer it if you call me, Al, buddy."
» Great, now that we've got that covered. How old are you?
"I'm twenty-three"
» You know, has anyone ever told you that you look exactly like...?
"Avan Jogia, maybe. But I don't see it."

Let's talk about your personality.
» What are a few of your favorite things?
"Well, I'm particularly fond of running. It's like a hobby I have. Keeps me in shape, ya know. I'm used to the simple life. Not saying that I wouldn't trade it for a cozier home, but hey, I'm surviving. Guess that's what matters at the moment. I also like my buddy Andrew. He's been with me since we were kids and I really don't see how I would have survived without him. And there is this one girl I've seen around. Dunno who she is, but damn."
»That's interesting. Is there anything you absolutely dislike?
"Man, there are tons. There's this creepy guy I see around town. He's like a David Blaine rip-off. Guy gives me the creeps. The Neptune Hotel is also a bit... I dunno. It's nice and all, but I hate working there. Kinda reminds me of what I don't have, see? Ah well, the pay is good. And my on-the-side is well served there."
» Hm, what is your greatest fear?
"Hmmm, I dunno. I guess just the thought that this is all I'm going to ever be in life. Wait, scrap that part out. That's a little lame. Um. Tigers. Yeah. Tigers scare the shit out of me. I mean, they're frickin' tigers!"
» Yeah, that is scary. Do you have any dreams for the future?
"See the Agrabah Hotels in the city? The big hotel there? I wanna own that place someday. I know it's a long shot, but heck. It's just a dream. Might as well make my ambition a huge one."
» Wow, I hope you succeed. Can you tell me a little bit about yourself?
"Thanks. Means a lot, man. Well, I'm a nice guy, generally. I may not be the most well-read person, nor the academically gifted, but I'm pretty street smart. Literally and figuratively. I know how to get myself out of situations and I know how to deal with people. It's the kind of thing you learn through experience and not the stupid school crap. I hate the pompously rich and annoying. Especially when they're all in-your-face about their things. It's kinda why I like stealing from them. Serves 'em right for flaunting everything they have. I'm often very casual and laid back, not caring too much about what others ask me to do. I've got ambition, and I will do whatever I can to reach it. Though I may be willing to lie, steal, and cheat to get what I want, that doesn't mean I'm an entirely bad guy. I do have self-control, knowing when to put myself in place. I also like helping out others like me. Who else would help us if not ourselves? Hah! I sound like I'm preaching. But yeah. I may not look much, but I'm sure more than just average. "

So far so good. Now for history.
» So tell me, where are you from? What did you think of it?
"I grew up in the Lost Boys Orphanage, down their in the outskirts of town. Left when I was nine. Well, me and Dru. We lived off on our own for a bit, surviving on food scraps and the occasional loaves of bread with the five-fingered discount. I didn't like it there. The orphanage was for people with no ambition. All they do there is wait and hope for a nice, loving family to pick them up and bring them home. We were different. We didn't belong there."
» Do you have any other family? Parents? Siblings? Extended? What do you think about them?
"I never met my parents. So I couldn't care less about them. Did I want to? Of course I did. Do I still want to? No. I'm not down for all that drama-family business. Besides, I'm used to how I am now. Meeting them would just cause crap to rain all over my life. Not interested. Besides, I got my buddy. He's as good as family. Even better."
» What is your worst memory?
"I'm not sure if it's my worst memory, but it was definitely a horrible experience. Kinda. So we decided to go to the Cave, it's what we call the strip club down at the city, when I hit twenty-one. You know, legality and all that. Anyways, we were watching some of the dancers there, and the highlight of the night, Ruby came up. Now Dru was more of the impulsive type and without thinking, he just leaped on stage and grabbed her breasts. She screamed like crazy and all the security approached us. We made a run for it, but I slipped on someone's drink and we were caught. We had to spend the rest of my birthday in juvie, and this creepy old man in our cell was hitting on me. 'Side from being arrested and probably being an object of someone's lonesome night, it was all good. "
» What is your best memory/memories?
"Well, again, best is a term that is used too loosely. I wouldn't say this was the best, but it was definitely a highlight. Just a couple of days ago, I was walking in the market. You know, acquiring dinner, when this girl...she was just...wow. I can't even begin to describe her. Even now, I still picture seeing her again. Maybe next time, I'll ask her out. If only she'd be willing to go for a guy like me."
» Where are you now? What are you doing with your life?
"Right now, I'm working as a bellboy in the Neptune Hotels. It's a nice place. And it's such a long way from where I was back years ago. But yeah, in a couple of weeks, I'm expecting to be moved out of the bellboys and into something much higher. A concierge, maybe? Otherwise, I'm heading out and moving elsewhere. I hear there are openings at The Tower. I got dreams, and the salary of a frickin' bell boy doesn't even come close to it. I tell ya, one day, I'll be a big shot in this city.
Oh? You heard about my side income? Well, um, between you and me, I have very skillful hands. Ambidextrous, if you will. I've been known to pick up a thing or two that I find interesting. You still don't get it? Well, I pilfer things. Steal 'em. Mostly because I've got no money. Obviously. Why would I steal if I could afford things? Well, it used to be just in the market. That's where I started. But now, like I said, I got ambition. I've been swiping from the hotel. Not always though. Some of the scattered jewelry in the rooms, the occasional wallet.
That's it, I guess. Oh, and that girl. I'm gonna ask her out. I just gotta find her first."
