PERSONALITY:
Arthur is a cheerful twin of Clover. And the two could not be more different. Sure, they share a few similarities but AJ is the type who can be friends with anyone. He is always smiling, joking around and has no problems to get along with people. There is no crowd he wouldn’t hangout with and most of the time, he can come up with an idea to get the party started. Many would describe him as someone who has not a worry in this world but if AJ cares about something or someone, then he gives his full attention. His flirty side is often visible but he doesn’t do it on purpose and even though he likes pretty girls, he is not the one to pick them up on purpose.
Despite being this lovable person, AJ is pretty reckless most of the time. He loves adrenaline and is pretty much restless most of the time. There is no way he would just sit in his butt and be calm, that’s simply a waste of time for him. He loves adrenaline but cannot be trusted not to kill himself at some point just because he wasn’t careful enough. Being responsible is not very high on the list of his priorities although the closer he is to graduation, the more he is trying to improve, especially because of his father.

HISTORY:
Being the only son of Charles Lexington has always been a challenge. Especially alongside the sister who has always known how to get into daddy’s favor. Arthur, or AJ as his friends call him, has never been like that. He never needed to scratch people the right way to get what he wanted. And he certainly never did puppy eyes on his parents to get stuff. That was Clover’s play. AJ has always been…there, spending more time with their mom as if was a compensation for Clover ignoring her most of the time.
As a kid, he was a tad quieter and was hanging on his mother’s every word. He was the one to be happy about horse riding lessons and ballroom dancing which he had to attend. It was always the plan that the Lexington twins would take over the family title and they needed to be ready. As a responsible kid, Arthur embraced this task and tried to do his best, much to his mom’s happiness.
Until that very day when Heather Lexington died. The sickness was there for a long time and the doctors didn’t really giver her high chances, but Arthur hoped and believed that mom would recover. Yet, it didn’t happen and AJ remained almost alone. He and his father never really understood each other and AJ had difficulties to adapt to his new situation. Neither of them would admit it now but Clover helped him a lot back then. She was the stronger kid.
But as the years went by, AJ didn’t feel that strong need to please the parent anymore. He became something that people usually call a life of the party. His responsible nature went to the background until it vanished completely and AJ subdued himself to the primal ways of life, drinking, smoking weed more than necessary and simply living from one day to another. Commitment is a word non-existent in his vocabulary. But he does enjoy one-night stands with girls who like his name and background and are willing to go with him in a false belief to become the next Mrs. Lexington. Uhm, as if.
Once they moved away from London, AJ immediately found his new crowd and his personality remained unchanged. He joined the basketball team to keep his form up as it was something, he has always been good at. Back at his old high school in London, he was a point guard. Here, he had to wait his chance. But the closer he got to the graduation, the more he realized that the college was close and he decided to walk in his father’s footsteps. He started to seek Charles’s approval again and though it was hard, AJ was persistent and decided not to give up until he got it.
SUPERNATURAL ORIGIN:
AJ got to his powers in the very same way as Clover did. They both discovered the family grimoire together. But while Clover started to read it first, AJ was not interested, considering it all bollocks. However, when he saw Clover profess some skills and be actually good with it, he became interested and had to admit that there might be something true about the Lexington’s and their abilities.
While Clover focused on the forces of elements, Arthur took another path. The first thing he has ever learn was telekinesis. It took a whole lot of time but he managed to master it. He and Clo agreed that it would be most dope if they both focused on different disciplines and together, they would be invincible. Therefore, AJ took up potion brewing and transfiguration. Yes, all very Harry Potter-y, but he loved it.
The twins tried all new spells together and more than often, it backfired. But AJ finally found a hobby that he was actually more interested in than basketball. There was no accident with his abilities, or at least not one as big as Clover experienced. But when he came across the power of persuasion, his eyes lit up and he decided that he needed to learn it. Arthur is still developing his skills, perfecting them and taking one step at a time. Surprisingly, when it comes to magic, he is the one much more careful than Clover and he even has to slow his twin down so their house would not burn down. Which is a bit literal when it comes to the twins.
