Albert was born the second of two brothers and received the typical childhood of Noirian aristocracy; he was raised by a Noirian Nanny and received tutoring in English, French, and piano from a young age as well as attending Southbridge Pre-Prep School. At age 5 he progressed to Southbridge Prep School and then at age 11, Southbridge School. Outside of school, Albert partook in horse riding and dance lessons alongside piano.

As the second son of the family, Albert often felt overlooked and aimless. He harboured jealousy for his older brother, Fredrick Blackburn, and became a quiet and brooding teenager.

However, when Fredrick disappeared one night, Albert found himself in his brother's shoes with expectations for the family now upon his shoulders. Albert married Violet Blackwood, who had been betrothed to Fredrick, and had two children; a daughter named Rosalie and and son named Ashby.

In 1995, Albert was assassinated in his home by Strelka forces alongside his wife and parents.
