Alan Serkis is the Marquis who leads House Serkis, one of the noble families in the Hernand region. He is widely respected among the local population for his genuine devotion to the safety and well-being of the people under his care. His reputation as a responsible and attentive lord sets him apart from some of the other nobles in the area.
Alan maintains a close friendship with Duke Charles Celeste, and the two share deep mutual trust. This alliance between House Serkis and House Celeste becomes important during the main story when both houses formally ally with the Greymanes.
Alan Serkis resides at Oakenshield Manor, the ancestral seat of House Serkis in central Hernand. He can also be encountered in the courtyard of Hernand Castle, where he discusses matters with other officials including Barden Middler.

During Chapter 3, Kliff is directed to visit Marquis Serkis at Oakenshield Manor as part of the First Step to Rebuilding main quest (the 31st main mission). This quest follows the completion of the "Old Friend" quest and is a key turning point in the story.
Upon arriving at the manor, the player approaches a giant standing outside, triggering a cutscene. After the meeting, a guard escorts the player on horseback to Howling Hill, where the Greymane Camp is established. This quest marks the formal alliance between the Greymanes, House Serkis, and House Celeste.

Alan Serkis appears again during Chapter 5 in the Demenissian Delegation main quest (the 62nd main mission). The player finds Alan in the courtyard of Hernand Castle, talking with Barden Middler and other officials about the delegation.
After a cutscene involving the delegation, the player faces the boss Kearush, The Slayer, a giant gorilla-like creature with three full health bars. This is one of the hardest boss fights in the game. Defeating Kearush unlocks access to the Witch's House and the Abyss system.
Lord Amidst the Ruins is a House Serkis faction quest that further develops Alan's storyline. Completing this quest rewards a Staglord's Shield and an Abyss Artifact.
Standing near a guard at Hernand Castle who discusses the Marquis will unlock the "Alan Serkis' Prominent Resident" entry in the Knowledge System. This entry provides background on Alan's standing among the people of Hernand and his reputation as a just leader.
Alan Serkis is characterized as a noble who genuinely cares about the common people of Hernand. He faces challenges from bandit activity and security threats but maintains a steady hand in governing. His willingness to ally with the Greymanes, a band of mercenaries, demonstrates pragmatism alongside his idealism. He prioritizes the safety of his people over political appearances.
