Alec Troven

Agent Alexander Raven "Alec" Troven is an ex-Gary Stu in the Department of Improbabilities. He is written by Kippur (for whom he also serves as a muse).

Agent Profile
Kippur says that Alec looks like Orlando Bloom and it wasn't at all intentional.

He is most notable in the PPC for his wife and partner Verra, as well as being the one who was assigned to kill all versions of Marrissa Picard due to incidents involving Alec turning a badfic character into a pumpkin and freezing King Thranduil&mdash;at the behest of his wife, mind you.

Alec is oftentimes sent after Gary Stus because he is a Great Big Gary Stu himself. Which he cheerfully admits. Being self-admitting allows him to overcome most of the failings of it. It also helps that he can be a spaz at times and has the attention span of a gnat.

Currently he is gaining an actual canon.

Powers
As a Gary Stu, his powers are, "the ability to manipulate probability and reality," or "to do whatever I want." There is a long and convoluted story as to how he got these powers.

As a canon character, he is an element wizard, able to control all four elements. But he's not very good at it. He's powerful, but not very good at controlling them except for fire. This is because he never got training in anything but fire.

He uses his longsword as a channel for his powers and to stab people with. It's shiny and has a dragon etched on the blade.
