Angel did not enter college as his siblings, despite his superior intellect, but rather diverged from the career path his father intended for him, the ministry, to study agriculture so that he might become a farmer. He is practical and dogmatic. Alec, on the other hand, is entitled and rather full of himself. He enjoys his inherited money and looks down on people he deems lower than him.
