Ix is a walking contradiction wrapped in glitter and gloom, a study in contrasts born from two wildly different worlds. On one hand, he inherited Ilece's warmth and chatterbox tendencies -- he can talk a mile a minute, especially when he's excited or nervous, and finds comfort in the sound of conversation. On the other, Lex's influence has lent him a sharp-edged introspection and a moody streak that rolls in like fog when no one's looking. He might light up a room with flustered commentary and clumsy charm, only to quietly retreat a few minutes later, convinced he said the wrong thing or that no one was really listening anyway. Ix overthinks everything but says most of it out loud.

He's emotionally sincere -- sometimes painfully so -- and believes in feeling things all the way through. Whether it's joy, indignation, or existential dread, he'll dive into the deep end and splash around, narrating the process with melodramatic flair. While he craves connection and admiration like Ilece, he's also inherited Lex's skepticism of people's motives and gets prickly fast when he senses insincerity or ignorance. He's loyal once he opens up, fiercely so, and is quick to defend others (often before defending himself). His sense of humor veers toward the odd and theatrical -- half puns, half pointed sarcasm -- and while he doesn't always know what he's trying to prove, he knows he wants to be seen. In short, Ix is an expressive tangle of angst, affection, and insight, glittering in moments of accidental brilliance.
