APPEARANCE & PERSONALITY Appearance
Height: 1.70 meters/5'7"
Weight: 120 lbs.
Hair: Blonde with red streaks
Eyes: Golden
Overall: Alice has the average height of 1.70 meters. Her skin colour is rather pale, which makes her look pale in general with her blonde hair. She has no flaws on her skin apart from some birth marks and a scar on the left side of her abdomen, it is a little red cross. As well as the strange ritual scar on her back that she hides with her clothing. It is easy to hide as it's just below waistline from jeans/skirts and so on. If Alice stays long enough into the sun in the summer, she will get tiny freckles on the bridge of her nose and her cheekbones, but only in summer. Albeit throughout the years she got a bloody mark on her back which happened in an accident when she got captured.
Officially Alice is a redhead but she has been dying her years blonde for a few years now and also cut it shorter to past her shoulders. She still mostly wears it in a braid or ponytail. Her face is framed by long bangs that she keeps shifting to the left side of her face most of the time. On the left side of her face, she has a shorter lock of hair that will always frame her face.
Her face thus contains the summer freckles and big hazel eyes. Her eyes are almond shaped and the colour is difficult to describe as at one point they are green, gold and brown or more brown than green and it looks like it switches all the time. Apart from her mesmerizing eyes, she has a button nose and a strong jawline. Her face is heart-shaped which gives her a bit of a pointy chin but not very much.
PERSONALITY
Personality: Alice is an open-minded person which gives her the ability to judge things in a way that she can understand, whether it be within the justice of the country of Fiore or without.
Alice is someone that keeps developing herself to evolve in the situations that she is in at that particular moment. It started with being a survivor after she lost her memory at the age of eighteen and made her wary, cautious, daring, wrong and a coward. Because she had to live on the streets and make money for herself in those dark days, she started to steal and think of plans to get more money, because she was eighteen, she had no longer the opportunity to stay in the orphanage where she was dropped as an eight-year-old child. The streets made her hard and she had to grow up faster in the process to understand what she had to do to avoid getting caught in the act of pickpocketing. This also made her more of a coward because she was constantly afraid of getting caught, especially in the beginning. She rather made the decision to flee than to fight for it. Since joining the Rune Knight she still has the idea to flee for the impossible jobs as she had sometimes proven but she no longer enjoys that idea as she is trying to train herself in getting stronger and less of a coward. Which means that she tries to fight for it instead of to flee. However, in the idea that she used to think before she did, she now does before she thinks, even with giving her opinion. Which makes her honest but blunt.
She actually now tries too hard to become a better version of herself, which makes her often tired and harsh (mostly to herself). She thinks she failed but would not show that and become more hidden behind a brick wall than show emotions.
Likes:
- Money: Alice has been able to let go of her love for money but she still likes it. The original reason was that she didn't have it and could steal it to get everything she wants. Now it changed a bit to that she likes doing a job and get paid for it, so she could afford her lifestyle of buying whatever she wants if it is armour, weapons, books or nice places to stay: money is important to support her in her way of living.
- Sweets: Alice loves a lot of food, she isn't a picky eater but if she has to pick something, she definitely loves sweet flavoured food. Which is wide ranged in sorts of sweet flavoured, she likes strawberries to sweet bread and so on. It doesn't really matter as long as it is sweet. Even though it is still a dangerous job: you could wake her up in the middle of the night for sweet flavoured food.
- Books: Alice is an active girl. She likes to hike, fight, train and do jobs. However, she is also someone that would like to stretch herself on a bed or sofa and enjoy a good book. She always has one in her backpack or close with her when she is travelling or out on a job or lounging at a cafe. She has a various amount of books from different writers that she likes. She likes to read classics the most, she had even named her first companion after Ophelia from Shakespeare.
- Weapons: Her love of weapons is a bit obvious for a former Requip mage. But she could as well go shopping in a smithy and look around as if she goes to a mall. She takes good care of her own weapons and is always looking for new versions. She wants to get better with every sort of weapon but only so much she could hold on to and train with.
- Her own Family: Not having an extremely good relationship with her own parents or her twin sister, she was never a real family being until she got her own two children. She considers her husband and her children as well as her companions as her own little family.
Dislikes:
- Crowds: Being a girl who was dumped and kicked out of an orphanage because of her age (which she did understand) and running away from authorities when she was younger, Alice isn't a big fan of crowds. Thanks to her job as a Rune Knight she does get used to it a lot better but she still isn't very comfortable with it, especially not when she is alone without someone around her that she knows.
- Insects: Although Alice tries to avoid most of the time to be "A girl about it" she can't help but dislike insects very much. It doesn't matter which form or size, the only she can stand from far away are butterflies and then again: from far away. She definitely doesn't mind if insects go around their daily business, hoping to flowers, sitting on windows but as soon as she gets to close, she would either step on them or try to get away because Alice and insects are not a combination at all.
- Chocolate: Surprisingly for a sweet tooth like Alice, she doesn't like Chocolate. She likes it on specific days when she really is in the mood for chocolate or as a topping on waffles or pancakes but only with a very light layer for the flavour and again only if she is in the mood for it. Most of the time she would just try to ignore it as best as she could but she would never deny herself chocolate covered strawberries. It's obvious about the strawberries at that moment.
- Crying: As someone who strives to be perfect, she can't be seen crying in general. As she does not believe that she has the right to cry, she will not cry for herself at perhaps any point. No matter her past and what her sister did to her, the times that she cried was for her companion and her loved ones.
Motivations:
- Get her memory back: As Alice suffers from amnesia since the age of eighteen she tries to get back her memory, no matter the horrid story behind it and the things her family has done to her to get rid of her. She just wants to know who she was and who she is now and how to get to a point to accept what all happened to herself is a part of developing herself. She tries to find people that understand her past and can explain things to her within the reason of again trying to understand what happened and to the reason why she lost her memory.
- Become a better version: After joining the Rune Knights, Alice understood that the version of herself before that was not the perfect edition that is needed to keep up with the job she is doing as well as not doing anything at all. This is why she goes on jobs for many at days and to develop herself and remake herself from time to time and get better in the abilities that she wants and in the emotions that she wants to control. She doesn't want to make a mask, she wants to be the Alice Baskerville or Alice Eventide that is accepted.
Fears:
- Amnesia: She is afraid that she might never find her memory again or that she might lose her new made memories at one point again. With flashbacks that are vague and scary to her meanly in dreams, Alice has constant reminders of her amnesia. Apart from that, she keeps a diary always with her to remind herself of new adventures that happened in the past two years and she reads often, afraid to forget.
- Heights:Alice isn't good with Heights. The fear must come from somewhere but she can't remember and she doesn't care. She just avoids the places where she doesn't need to go.
- Death: After the death of her sister, she realized that she could die in an instant as well, which is something she definitely doesn't want and is afraid too. This in combination with her goal to find her memory, she can't die before understanding everything.
- Death of her family:
her family is her everything and she would protect them till the bitter end in case it is necessary. The idea that something can happen to the children or her husband brings fear to Alice, she only tries to not think about it at all times.
