Alexandra Hughes is the heiress of the Blowfelden fortune and famous horror author.

Her father was an unsuccessful newspaperman, who spent much of Alexandra's childhood attempting to separate himself from his wealthy family. Each summer, he would return to Bluffington to work on properties that his father owned, bringing Alexandra with him and locking her in his father's mansion while he worked.

Alexandra was 10 years old when she discovered old film reels with footage of Bluff City and became fascinated by it. When she was 20 years old she set off to find a way to Bluff City (although in Bluffington the story was spread that she had died in a shipwreck to cover her disappearance). It is unknown at this time when she was in Bluff City, but it is assumed it was well before the modern era as she has no knowledge of cellphones or email.

Some time after arriving in Bluff City, she discovered a way to Blough City and spent the next 15 years or so traveling between each of the cities (by both land and sea) as a way to see the world and escape from her "heiress locked inside of a mansion" life that waited for her back in Bluffington, and thinks of herself as being a citizen of all three cities.

Although she is not of the same social class as the Whitaker’s, she has a close association with Hollis Whitaker and often spends time with him while in Blough City.

After she returned from Blough City, she began writing existential and cosmic horror stories based on her experiences which are described as "what if Lovecraft was less racist". Despite her skill as a storyteller, Alexandra is not good at talking about herself, as her personal anecdotes make is seen like she is "trying to be above it all".

She finds the concept of The Tunnel Project to be disturbing, as she dislikes the idea of Bluff and Blough City infecting the world of Bluffington.

When seen in Extracurricular: Out Of Time, she is in her late 20s and is wearing a black dress with a white fringe and a dozen thin gold arm bangles. She has a bob with tight, gelled-down finger waves. She carries cigarettes with her.

She is described as looking like Nancy Cunard, with very pale skin and dark features (dark hair, dark lips, dark eyes). She is also described as having “very strange eyes”.

She has a mid-atlantic accent.
