Personal Information
Appearance
Lex is a short, dumpy young woman with messy silver hair and stormy grey eyes. She wears large-framed prescription glasses paired with a bleak expression and a cigarette, and dresses in baggy clothes, favouring graphic tees, hoodies, sweatpants, and sleepwear. She tends to keep her distance from other Kindred. When she's not socialising, she often hides behind a sketchbook.
Personality
With an irreverent humour, a sharp wit, and a strong sense of justice, Lex is never afraid to speak her mind. Anger and spite are powerful instigators for change, and while she knows the intricacies of both like a childhood friend, she also understands the true value of compassion and empathy in the wake of their destruction -- though that is not to say she always has the inner strength to muster them.
In the constant struggle to feel and find motivation, some nights are worse than others, so she is constantly searching for reminders big and small that she, and others, deserve to thrive and be loved. On her good nights, she's amicable and easygoing. On her bad nights, she's prone to cynicism, doubt, and self-loathing.

Status
City
Having remained rather reclusive since her escape from Glenside Hospital, Lex has so far given the Anarchs little reason to acknowledge her presence or actions.
Clan
Since she was never released by her surrogate sire, Lex never achieved any status in her clan while among the Camarilla, and with no other Unchained Malkavians in her little world, what point would there be in posturing?
