She is tall, standing at 5'10 with long, thick hair showing different shades of blonde through each straggly strand. With fair skin and a clear complexion, she sports a very different look than the majority of the descendants of her culture. While she retained the many recessive genes that made her appearance light, her stature is that of her people. Alice's expression is generally the same regardless of what she's feeling, showing little to no emotion through her face. Her mannerisms, on the other hand, are different depending on the situation. A ball calls for noble and feminine mannerisms, delicate and elegant, while the battlefield calls for more barbaric mannerisms. Being a participant in fair amount of battles, Alice is marked with scars on various parts of her body. None of them show any great damage, the majority of them being mere cuts from a blade. She has a small scar along her cheek that is incredibly subtle and often covered with makeup. Alice's attire ranges from plate armor to beautiful gowns, resulting in a very diverse wardrobe. Neither of which she favors more than her regular townswoman clothes that she'll wear whenever the situation calls for it. Although, being a more famed lady of Vertiron requires a very presentable look, calling for noble gowns regardless of the discomfort, and thus leaving her favored outfit unworn. Alice's makeup fluctuates from heavy to light, depending on her mood. Her version of heavy only consists of heavier eye makeup opposed to the overly-powdered face makeup that many noble woman fashion.[/indent][/indent] [color=BDC9FF][u] I N T E R E S T S [/u][/color] [indent][indent]- Weaponry - Dueling - Strategizing - Battle - Horseback Riding - Sunsets - Nature - Art[/indent][/indent] [color=BDC9FF][u] P E R S O N A L I T Y [/u][/color] [indent][indent]Alice is a strong-willed, fearless, opinionated, and demanding individual, usually expressing respect only when she's respected. She is a big dweller of the past and holds grudges over people, choosing to not forget the faces of her enemies, especially those that cross her or humiliate her. Alice will relive moments in which she's embarrassed, humiliated, powerless, or weak and turn it into motivation, resulting in a strong, restless desire to improve to avoid such feelings. Along the lines of remembering actions of rage, she also remembers acts of generosity and makes it certain that she expresses her gratitude properly. Alice becomes uneasy when she's faced with situations that confuse her, resulting in loss of sleep until she unravels the truth. Alice is also very defensive of those that she cares about, valuing the protection of others in and out of the battlefield, but also finding difficulty in making decisions requiring sacrifices. While Alice does have a very hard-headed nature, she is a very generous person, enjoying the feeling of giving to those in need and being honored for it in return. Being a protector to the people of Thelan, she shows no fear of a threatening enemy, regardless of their intimidating stature or title. She holds a different kind of respect for those that are beneath her than those that are of or above her level, or rank, being kinder to those that are lower and being more stern with those that are equal or better.[/indent][/indent] [color=BDC9FF][u] H I S T O R Y [/u][/color] [indent][indent]Alice grew up as the daughter of Thelan's greatest military strategist, Sebastian Allaire. Her mother, being a respected lady of the kingdom attempted to raise her as a typical lady within her footsteps. With much failure, Alice walked in the path of her father for as long as she could. Being a kid, the freedom to dream and become who you want was encouraged, but also taken away once the child reached the primitive age to become who they were born to be. For Alice, it was planned for her to be a stunning young woman with typical talents of a lady, but that lifestyle was never meant for her. It was strange for a girl to be so fascinated with war and military politics, but Alice proved to many that she was different in this aspect. Growing up for Alice involved the hilt of a blade in one hand and the handle of a buckler in the other, her loving father unable to take this strange hobby from her. This hobby became stronger which eventually turned into a dream to become the next military strategist for Thelan, regardless of the gender boundaries that morality brought. At this point, Alice had no interest in learning the mannerisms of becoming a lady, but as soon as she began her teenage years, her lack of knowledge for proper woman etiquette became apparent and disrespectful. Thus, she was limited to the war room and was forced to wear the uncomfortable dresses that she loathed, but her father never stopped training her. It wasn't long before her father became ill and the war officers were in distress to find a replacement. As many heroic tales would go, Alice would be the assumed successor for the role, but the sexism that existed strongly in this era casted that dream aside. Alice, weak and underestimated as she felt, fled to the Isle of Moore to pursue a much more rigorous training. It is true, that the Moore people train their warriors within the harsh climates of the North, fighting beasts and bandits alike. Thus, she trained hard and ruthlessly, with one goal in mind, and with honor at her fingertips. With her return, Alice partook in battle and even lead legions of men once she became comfortable with the harshness of war and killing. It was kept quiet among the nobles since her victorious actions and her incredible battle prowess were seen as unladylike, but the rumors of the people spread and now she claims her title as "Thelan's Battle-maiden". As of late, Alice finds that her influence in the war room is still limited from her gender, but the respect of her allies and the honor from her people gives her wisdom and power. Now, as the two Kingdoms ready their commanders and gear their soldiers, Alice is found to be a leader of a new conquest. Her father swayed the Kingdom to allow for his daughter to be apart of the Royal Plea, an important, though incredibly dangerous, quest to find Queen Anice. Alice readies herself, and recollects her previous lessons within the Isle of Moore to soon brave her destiny.[/indent][/indent] [center][sub][color=BDC9FF] Katheryn Winnick | BDC9FF [/color][/sub][/center][/hider]
