Alex Churchland

“	Time isn't what it was. A single day like a thousand years. And years somewhere else aren't even a moment. If you go far enough, maybe you'll get back to 'what was'.	„
	~ Alex Churchland

“	I had life figured out, but now it's all gone.	„
	~ Alex Churchland to Dr. Yado after he lost in the World Tournament

Background

Alex Churchland is the primary protagonist and playable character of LISA: The Pointless. His love for martial arts budded when he was young, eventually culminating in his participation in a World Tournament. After a traumatizing loss, Alex Churchland found himself working a job as a garbage man in Olathe.

For unknown reasons, an elderly post-Flash Alex Churchland was shot in the back by forces belonging to Rando's Army, his body dumped in the Mass Graves of Garbage Island. It is here that he is discovered, near death, by Joel Miller. After being nursed back to health, Alex embarks to leave the island. Hoping to find a better place to live in, Alex and Joel set out as a duo to travel the wastes of a post-apocalyptic Olathe, in search of a legendary city.

An aspiring martial artist, turned garbage man then reduced to literal garbage by cruel fate.

Statistics

Tier: 9-B, possibly 9-A

Name: Alex Churchland, Lucky (by Joel Miller)

Origin: LISA: The Pointless

Sex: Male

Age: In his 60s to 70s

Classification: Human, former garbage man

Status: Alive

Dimensionality: 3-D

Attack Potency: Wall level (He can perform the Goat Kick, which is stated to send people flying; he can do this to Stefan Kindchild, who is a Sumo Ringer. He can deal damage to those than can harm him), possibly Room level (He can fight against an "ass-tired" Arnold Sphitz. He can deal damage to the Infinimobile. He can fight against Doyle Muscare, whose Infinite Deathmaker is potentially this strong) to Room level+ (He can fight against Shadowy Figures and beat them even without Joel's assistance post Arnold fight)

Durability: Wall level (He can tank attacks from melee weapon-wielding opponents relatively well. He can tank being run over by the Infinimobile, which would result in Kinetic Energy at this level), possibly Room level (He can barely survive some blows from an "ass-tired" Arnold Sphitz. He can tank the Infinite Deathmaker) to Room level+ (He can tank attacks from Shadowy Figures)

Striking Strength: Wall Class, possibly Room Class to Room Class+

Lifting Strength: Peak Human (He is capable of carrying the corpses of Jessie Mack, Anaconda Virtue and Stefan Kindchild at the same time, which would make him this strong. Stronger than Joel)

Travel Speed: Average Human

Combat Speed: Peak Human, possibly Supersonic+

Reaction Speed: Peak Human (He can sometimes dodge blows from Arnold Sphitz), possibly Supersonic+ (He can dodge the Infinite Deathmaker which ignites the foes it hits, which should indicate that Doyle Muscare striked hard enough so that the shovel he was wielding temporarily caught on fire. He can evade attacks from Shadowy Figures)

Stamina: Peak Human (He can travel across the Endless Wastes. Petre Grams, who had attempted to do so before him had to turn back and stated that he "Walked for days, but there was no end to it.")

Range: Standard Melee, Several Meters when throwing empty bottles

Intelligence: Above Average (The years have turned him into a wise person. It has been stated by WoG that he misremembers the specifics of the Velvet-Fu style and accidentally hones it over the course of the story, making it much more usable in actual combat. Thanks to this, he can routinely come out on top against opponents that have the means to swiftly defeat him if he slips up, though it should be noted that the majority of them have next to no real combat experience barring the rough-housing that they participated in in form of The Game. His stat sheet lists his technique to be as advanced as that of John Johnson, who fought in the fictious New Zealand Crisis and he can keep up with Chriss Belluci, who was a professional wrestler pre-flash)

Other

Standard Tactics:

Although a bit of a wildcard due to being a RPG character, he utilizes the moves the enhanced Velvet-Fu style entails. His approach to combat is notably far more defensive than it used to be when he was young as evidenced by the fact that he stopped using Advancing Stance and changed it to Receding Stance. To add on, it is also in-character for him to use whatever items would suit him well depending on the situation he finds himself in (for instance, using Man Made Salts to save himself from being oiled up or simply consuming Jerky if he does not have much HP left). If he fights alongside Joel, the duo depend on each other; they complement each other in a variety of ways.

He utilizes the moves the original Velvet-Fu style entails. It is focused entirely around offense and does terribly against reactive fighting styles. If he is fighting against a foes with such a fighting style and is unable to adapt to their style, the frustration stemming of that fact can lead to him resorting to dirtier methods.

Weaknesses:

His body is not as robust as it used to be, causing some of his moves to deal slight damage to him as well. He is particularly vulnerable to fire-based attacks. His Dive does not work against ranged attacks.

He is overconfident and has no real skill in martial arts. The Velvet-Fu style is focused entirely around offense and does terribly against reactive fighting styles - Alex lost to Stan Curien, someone who has been described as a not necessarily well-skilled student of Aikido by WoG in spectacular fashion, being unable to adapt to the latters style - the frustration stemming of that fact determinantly led to him losing his cool and kicking Stan in the groin.
