3.1 it was stated that he may have missed his calling as a painter by Krile and Y'shtola.

With every bit of character development with Alphinaud, he sounds more and more like a certain someone in World War 2.
I never found Alphinaud as charismatic I wanted to give him a slap more than once and now he sounds like Harry Potter.
