Lexington is one of the gargoyles of the former Wyvern clan and a founding member of the Manhattan Clan, as well as a member of the trio.
Like his rookery brothers Brooklyn and Broadway, Lexington was hatched in the Wyvern Clan rookery. He and they became close friends during their childhood, thus forming the trio. They and Bronx survived the Wyvern Massacre of 994 thanks to their having been confined to the rookery for getting into a fight with some of the humans, and so were not found and shattered by the Vikings. Lexington and the others, however, were afterwards cursed to sleep by the Magus, and remained in stone sleep for a thousand years, finally awakened when Xanatos moved Castle Wyvern to the top of the Eyrie Building.
Lexington was fascinated by the modern world, and particularly its technology, and remains so still. Upon his awakening, he eagerly investigated the technological devices of New York in the 1990’s, such as Vinnie's motorcycle (with disastrous consequences for both the motorcycle and Vinnie). He also learned how to build his own, constructing a motorcycle for Brooklyn out of spare parts and rebuilding the Pack’s helicopter to make it more effective.
Lexington has since become the clan’s technical expert, who works out how to disarm advanced security systems, access information from computers, and so on, whenever the clan needs his help with such things.
Alongside Lexington’s passion for all things mechanical, he holds also a deep grudge against the Pack. Shortly after the clan awoke in New York, Lexington (alongside Brooklyn and Broadway) became fascinated with the Pack, and believed them to genuinely be the valiant heroes that they played on television. He therefore sought them out, hoping that they could become new friends and allies to the gargoyles. The Pack pretended to accept his friendship, however, in order to lure him and Goliath into a trap for the fun of hunting them. Lexington was crushed at the discovery of how they had betrayed them, and hated them with a vengeance ever since. Indeed, his grudge against them has been so bitter that it has led him to occasionally forget his priorities, and endanger himself or his fellow clan members.
Lexington’s feud with Fox has ended, however, thanks to a third keystone in his life; his close friendship with Alexander Xanatos. Lexington and Alex first developed their rapport when Alex temporarily possessed him in order to use his body and developed vocal chords to cast "soul transference" spells involving the Coldtrio; Lexington warmed to Alex as a result and this process deepened further after the clan moved back into the castle. For Alex’s sake, therefore, Lexington has made peace with Fox. His current attitude towards Dingo is unknown, although it is safe to assume that he still dislikes Jackal, Hyena, and Wolf, the three unreformed members left of the original Pack.
In Puck's Future Tense world, Lexington initially appeared as part of the resistance against Xanatos, decked out in numerous cyborg replacements and armor, and was truly a "cybergoyle". He exhibited a resentment and hatred of Goliath for his abandonment. It was later revealed, however, that Xanatos had died years before, and Lexington - using the Xanatos Program as a front - had conquered the city and set in motion an unstoppable plan of world conquest.
Lex lured them to the castle where one by one, Broadway, Brooklyn, Demona and Angela were destroyed, and he very nearly killed Goliath in his Xanatos guise, but in an act of supreme will, Goliath survived the incredible damage inflicted on him and destroyed the Xanatos form. After finding out that Lex was the true mastermind, Goliath tried to stop his plan of world conquest, even destroying his body in the process, but was too late.
Lexington is the smallest of the trio, and because of this and his large eyes, looks younger than he really is. He is often shown being eager, analytical and outgoing, and sometimes impatient; in the episode, 'Upgrade' Lexington chooses his motto to be, "Speed is the key". His most distinguishing feature is his wings, which are attached to his arms in a web-like structure, evocative of the wings of a flying squirrel. His wings are pierced, which allows him to wear a loincloth. He has khaki-colored skin, and a hairless head.
Lexington received his name in 1994, soon after his awakening in New York, naming himself after Lexington Avenue. A common nickname of his is "Lex".
Awakening into the 20th Century, Lexington soon became the Manhattan Clan's technical specialist, quickly grasping on the workings of technology and computer programs. He's proved himself a capable engineer, as he once contructed a motorcycle for Brooklyn (although it got blown up), and he even once engineered a helicoptor (though it was never seen again in the episode it was used). Lexington also has a knack for computers, and using them, likely meaning he is a capable hacker and programmer.
