**Alice Gehabich** (アリス・ゲーハビッチ, *Arisu Gēhabitchi*?) is a character in the anime *Bakugan Battle Brawlers* and the strategist for the Battle Brawlers who lives in Moscow, Russia with her grandfather Dr. Michael Gehabich.

Late into the season, she is revealed to be the unwitting host for her former alter-ego or counterpart Masquerade, a villain and the former servant of Naga. She later acquires his Guardian Bakugan, Darkus Hydranoid (who eventually evolved into Leviathan Hydranoid).

She reappears in *Bakugan Battle Brawlers 3: New Vestroia* as a supporting character, but only brawls once and seems to have a mutual relationship with Lync Volan.

## Appearance

Alice has waist-length ginger-orange hair and hazel-brown eyes. As a natural beauty, she frequently attracts the attention of men.

In *Original Series*, She wears a yellow dress with white shorts, a green blouse, and small white and green colored boots. She has a pinkish-red bracelet on her left wrist as well.

In *Battle Trainer*, She wears a purple dress with yellow shorts with white pants underneath, a lavender blouse, and small white and lavender colored boots with hot pink socks. She has a pinkish-red bracelet on her left wrist from the last season.

In *New Vestroia*, She wears a long sleeved lavender blouse with a light pink top underneath, yellow skirt, and white boots, befitting her status as a Darkus brawler.

In *Gundalian Invaders*, She wears a

In *Mechtaium Surge*, She wears a White T-shirt, a purple summer overall dress, white shorts, purple long socks with purple and white boots and a purple hair band.

In *Battle Force*, She wore the same clothes as fifth season, her breasts got big in the sixth season.

In her Neathian Form, She wears a purple T-shirt, a dark violet summer overall dress, purple shorts, white long socks with purple and pink boots and a purple hair band.

## Personality

Alice is a very polite, kind and sweet girl who can often be found doing errands for others and rarely chooses to bother others with her problems unless they ask her or if it is of the utmost importance to the task at hand for them. She and Shun Kazami are seen as the most mature of the group. She hates causing trouble for her friends and also dislikes it when there is conflict between them, because she wants the group to stay together.

She is shown to be intuitive to others' emotions, such as being able to sense Shun was lying when he claimed nothing was wrong and insisted that he tell them the truth in *The Brawler's Last Stand*. In spite of that, she can be quite gullible and overly-trusting of others, as shown when she was tricked by Lync Volan. Despite his trickery, however, Alice still cares for Lync as she realized Lync lost to Hydron outside of her house when the Ikenami Clan team rescued Lync's life.

Despite having a thorough grasp of the game's rules, she has always been afraid to play Bakugan. It perhaps stems from her lack of self-confidence and a fear of losing, which sometimes makes her feel useless. She also refrains from battling because she dislikes violence. To compensate, Alice gives advice and strategies to the other members of the group, as she is pretty good at knowing which abilities and Bakugan to use at the right time. While some find this to be a nuisance, her advice has actually helped the Brawlers a great deal.

Even after gaining the confidence to brawl, she still struggles with her past history and in both of her losses these feelings somehow contributed to the battle. It is shown that she had grown a little more confident after her battle with Shadow Prove.

Though she has a distaste for violence, she makes an exception for those who threaten her friends and family.

## Biography

### Anime

#### Bakugan Battle Brawlers

##### Arc 1

Alice was born and raised in Moscow, Russia, and lived alone in a small house until her grandfather, Michael Gehabich, came for her. She went back to living there when he disappeared, and lived with her aunt and uncle while hiding from the Battle Brawlers. It is presumed her parents have died sometime prior to the beginning of the series, so she was homeschooled by her grandfather since there are no school accessible near her house. She is closest to Runo Misaki and frequently worries about Dan Kouzo, Ichigo Ikenami and Shun Kazami.

She arrived to Dan and Ichigo's hometown and helped Wynton and Runo battle Takashi and Kosuke and later told the team about her grandfather's history.

In *The Invasion of the Vestals*, her Alpha Hydranoid had been un-petrified, but was in a bronze statue state in Prince Hydron and Princess Nalia's collection along with the other nine hero Bakugan, excluding Drago and Leonidas.

## Record/Battles

While Alice never battled before she still helped the Bralwers by giving them strategies to beat opponents. When she first battled Klaus she was rusty and worried because of her past as Masquerade. However, she learned that she is a part of the Bralwers and became a much stronger battler after getting Hydranoid.

## Etymology

* Alice has the Russian name "Элис (Elis)", similar to the name "Элиас (Elias)" (e.g. as the female, a Fairy of Water's name, the name "Elias", from *Panel De Pon*.), unlike "Алиса (Alisa)", the Russian and/or Hebrew name for as almost all Alices as generally all Alisas.
	+ Her Russian name is "Элис Гехабит (Elis Gekhabit)".
* In the Arabic dub, she is named **Ramis** ( لميس ).

## Trivia

* In the original series, an Intermission Screen would often show a brawler and their Guardian Bakugan. Because Alice didn't have a Bakugan of her own, it showed her along with a rabbit holding a pocket watch as a reference to *Alice in Wonderland*. This changed once she acquired Hydranoid.
	+ She is also one of the few characters to have its attribute wheel glow on her Intermission Screen, the other being Joe Osamu and Mag Mel.
	+ Alice is the only minor character in *New Vestroia* to have an Intermission Screen.
* Between the *Original Series*, *Battle Trainer* and *New Vestroia*, Alice moved back to Moscow, Russia. Interestingly Alice didn't hang out much with the Brawlers like Naru Hinasaki and Lina Hamato did in the second arc. She remained in Moscow for a majority of New Vestroia. Although she uses the field card to teleport herself to Dan Kouzo and Ichigo Ikenami's hometown and Wynton's house.
* Alice is the only original Darkus Brawler not to physically reappear after the events of *Bakugan Battle Brawlers 3: New Vestroia*. She, along with Wynton Marukura and his brother, help Michael Gehabich in searching where the Vexos Motherpalace is.
* Alice, Genki Kurama, Kazuo Sanada, Ryusei Kudo, Shun Kazami, Katie Lowery and Kaede Hyuga are the second oldest out of the 12 by 1-2 years.
* Alice is one of the only five female characters to have Darkus as their main attribute. The others are Akina Ikenami, Anya Kaiser, Taylor and Chris Marie.
* Alice and Ace Grit have the same initials (AG) and they are both Darkus Brawlers.
* Alice and Ichigo Ikenami are both Darkus Brawlers.
* Despite being born and raised in Russia, Alice is not given a Russian accent in the English dub. In the Japanese Version, she speaks Japanese fluently, compared to Julie Makimoto who is still learning Japanese.
* Alice and Mira Fermin both are red-headed and constantly worry about an older family member who has turned evil.
* Alice is the only main character who has never been to Bakugan Interspace.
* Alice is the only original Brawler not to physically reappear after the events of *Bakugan Battle Brawlers 3: New Vestroia*. Her final physical appearance and speaking role is in *All for One*. She along with Marucho and Wynton help Michael in searching where Spectra and Quantra went off.
* Alice is similar to Alisa Bosconovitch, a character in *Tekken*.
	+ Both have family relations to a scientist.
	+ Both are Russian.
	+ Both are friends with Japanese school girl who have a crush on the main hero (Runo and Xiaoyu).
	+ Alisa's name is also Russian/Hebrew for "Alice".
* Alice has a great physical resemblance to Koko Kaga from *Golden Time*.
* Alice also has a very great physical resemblance to Orihime Inoue from *Bleach*.
* Alice's main attribute Darkus does not look fitting for her, as it does not contain colors for the attribute, but this is changed in Season 2, in which her color in her clothing now matches her attribute.
* The illusionary version of Alice brawls differently than how Alice actually battles. The illusionary version battles seriously and is confident in her abilities, while the real Alice is nervous when brawling, and overall reserved when playing Bakugan. In Season 2 and 3, she now has the confidence of the illusionary Alice, yet she's still reserved for playing Bakugan.
