Biography-Alec Lightwood

Alexander Lightwood was the eldest child born to Robert and Maryse Lightwood. Born in Idris, Alec was, along with his parents, exiled from their homeland and was banned from returning unless on official Shadowhunter business. Two years after his birth, his sister, Isabelle, was born, and his younger brother Max was born when he was nine.

When he was eleven years old, Jace Wayland was adopted into their family. Alec developed an almost instant rapport with Jace and soon became very close friends. Eventually, they became parabatai. Alec also developed feelings for Jace, though because of the Clave's stand on homosexuality, he remained closeted, with only his sister, Isabelle, being the only person who, secretly, knew about it.
