**Alyssa Drake** is a main character on Netflix original series *The Order*. She is portrayed by Sarah Grey.

Alyssa Drake was a Belgrave University tour guide and a former member of The Hermetic Order of the Blue Rose.

## Background

Alyssa grew up on the West Coast, her family always forced her to be what they expected of her. Alyssa finally decided to go to Belgrave to escape from them, and there she was selected to enter The Order.

During this time she meets Kyle, with whom she would later have a relationship. Although at first she struggled, the support of another member, Lilith Bathory, allowed her to open herself to magic, reaching the rank of Medicum.

## Throughout the Series

### Season 1

Committed to The Order and Edward Coventry, Alyssa thrived off of feeling of need. She helped Coventry in retrieval of pages of the Vade Maecum and then signed the contract with him, semi-bounding her with the Vade Maecum Infernal (hence her weaker magic in Season Two after Edward was unable to complete the contract and Vera did not truly destroy the book).

### Season 2

Alyssa has weakened magic after the Vade Maecum was failed to be destroyed, this leads to her creating an allyship with Salvidor whom wants magic to be free for the use of all people no matter the cost. In the final episode, she is killed by Midnight, the episode ends with Jack carrying her body to burial with the Vade Maecum.

## Personality

Alyssa has been described as "a pretty and smart overachiever with a double major in poli-sci who is a member of The Order and is attracted to Jack." Alyssa has a special bond with magic, saying that magic is the only thing that makes sense in her life and without it she feels lost and empty. She used to be very loyal to The Hermetic Order of the Blue Rose until she found out that Vera lied and kept intact the Vade Maecum Infernal, feeling completely disapointed. Then she betrayed The Order and joined Praxis in order to use magic and share it with people.

## Powers and Abilities

As a seasoned member of The Order, Alyssa is a skilled magic user. She is capable of doing spells of both defensive and offensive nature, although she claims to still not have enough power to be a substantial theat to another being. She proved to be the only one who could figure out how to open the obsidian rock by using “submission” instead of offense, showing she is capable of using magic for more in depth purposes than most other practitioners. Some spells she’s performed include a scrying spell to find Randall, a dream entering spell (albeit with the help of Edward) and a telekinetic spell to open heavy-duty locked doors.

## Relationships

### Jack Morton

Love interest. They both know they have a complicated relationship, but still feel some attraction towards one another.

### Kyle

Prior to the events of Season 1, they dated for a few months before breaking up.

### Lilith Bathory

Lilith and Alyssa were best friends during freshman year at Belgrave University. They even joined The Order together. Alyssa says that Lilith was the reason she dared to improve herself and that she always was the greatest support for her. The girls shared many personal details about their lives, including their family history and grief. Alyssa was forced to use Pulveris memoria on Lilith when the latter's methods grew too cruel. Upon the erasure of her memories, Lilith treated Alyssa with rudeness and distrust like with any other member of The Order. However, after recovering Lilith's memories, Lilith suffered a fit of anger when she realized they made her forget her friendship with Alyssa. Lilith later affirms that she used to love Alyssa like a sister.
